Natural Forest Community Covenant C Miami-Dade County

About This Dataset

This dataset maps the locations of Natural Forest Community (NFC) covenant agreements across Miami-Dade County—legal protections that guarantee landowners maintain native forest ecosystems on their property. If you own land in a protected natural forest area and want to remove trees or develop, you'll need to understand these boundaries and the permits required by County code. This data helps residents know if their property is subject to forest preservation requirements and what that means for future use.

Why This Matters

• A property owner planning renovations checks whether their lot falls within an NFC covenant area to understand tree removal restrictions and permit requirements before hiring a contractor.
• A conservation group researches which neighborhoods have the strongest forest protections to prioritize community education and habitat restoration efforts.
• A real estate agent uses the map to disclose covenant restrictions to potential buyers, explaining how existing agreements affect what can be built or cleared on a property.
