What building in Neptune Beach actually involves

The ground
Dune sand behind the primary dune line, stable enough to build on but unforgiving of poor compaction under a slab.
The water
Salt air carries inland across the whole city — fastener and flashing corrosion is the leading cause of premature failure here.
The building stock
Compact mid-century cottages on small lots where owners add a second story rather than move.
The rules
Permits run through City of Neptune Beach Building Department, and strict city height and lot-coverage limits designed specifically to keep the low beach-town scale.
