Pasco County
Dade City
Dade City is an incorporated city and the county seat of Pasco County. Its Building Division also issues permits for San Antonio and St. Leo after the applicant gets approval from the correct city, so one permit counter does not mean the three cities share one approval.

Local front desk
One building counter serves three cities.
Check the project address and get the required approval from Dade City, San Antonio, or St. Leo first. Dade City's Building Division then accepts permit applications for all three. For an older Dade City property, also check the municipal historic register, district map, and board-review materials.

Last checked July 26, 2026. Place names, county coverage, GEOIDs, coordinates, and population labels come from the Census sources in the Florida place data used by this site. County tax planning rows use Florida Revenue November 2025 millage data. The local front desk is a reviewed profile of the city and county split, checked August 2, 2026. Direct note relationships and contextual note paths are kept separate. Parcel values, exemptions, permits, school assignments, storm instructions, utility service, private rules, and final bills still depend on the exact address and the official office or document.
