Sources & methodThe code section and how we compared

District RS-50 minimums: Tampa Sec. 27-156, Table 4-2, read from the county's current copy on 2026-09-24; the adoption date is not recorded in our copy.

The code says: “RS-50 | 5,000 | 50 | 5,000 | 20 | 7 | 20/20 | 7 | — | 35”

Lot area: the 2026 Florida Department of Revenue tax roll land square feet, rounded to the nearest 10 sq ft.

Minimums only: setbacks, wetlands, flood rules, septic and access can still limit a site. Not a permit or zoning determination; the county's zoning office decides.
