Surfside requires boats and boat trailers stored on lots in the H30A and H30B districts to be secured or removed immediately on a hurricane warning, and portable storage units to be removed. Construction sites - including single-family and duplex jobs - must be secured on a hurricane watch or tropical storm warning, and permitted emergency repairs may be done outside normal hours with after-the-fact approval.
