Yes, Seminole County is a 105-120 windspeed zone according to TIA-222G.
Seminole County is split, and based on your FCC address you're in the lower
speed area (110 mph).
The Florida Building Code permits the use of TIA-222G for towers, which has
different requirements than their "139 mph" requirements. Your city
permitting department may need to be talked to about this, and have the
TIA/EIA-222g reference in the Florida building code pointed out to them.
I'm in the process of this now and all I need in my city is a setback and
stamped drawings. I don't think it's them being difficult.
