Hollywood has historic districts with design review
The City of Hollywood's Historic Preservation Board reviews Certificates of Appropriateness for Design in its historic districts, which include the Lakes Area Historic Multiple Resource Listing District, the Hollywood Beach Historic Overlay District and the Historic Hollywood Business District. If your home is in one, ask city planning staff whether a roof change needs review.
You will be asked to initial a roofing notice
For a re-roof in Broward County, the Florida Building Code (Section 1524.1) has the contractor explain a set of roofing considerations, which the owner initials and both sign. Topics include re-nailing a wood roof deck that is hidden until tear-off and keeping nails from showing through exposed beam ceilings. Read it before you sign.
Hollywood ZIP codes reach into neighboring cities

Hollywood roofing questions
My Hollywood home is in the Lakes area. Does that change a roof replacement?
It can. The Lakes area is one of Hollywood's historic districts, where the Historic Preservation Board reviews exterior design changes. Ask the City of Hollywood whether your roof plans need a Certificate of Appropriateness before you pick materials.
Why does my contractor want my initials on a roofing form?
Broward County re-roofing permits include an owner's notification required by the Florida Building Code. Your initials confirm the contractor explained items such as deck re-nailing and exposed ceilings. It is worth reading line by line.
