I appreciate the prompt structure, but I need to be transparent about a limitation:

I cannot access or verify the content of the URLs you've provided as declared sources:
- The Florida Statutes links (§ 489.103, 489.105, 489.107, 489.111, 489.113)
- The Greenbriar Municipal Code link

I should not write this guide because:

  1. I cannot verify statutory text. I cannot confirm these statute sections exist, what they currently say, or whether they apply to your specific trade. Florida law changes regularly.

  2. I cannot verify local code. The Greenbriar CDP municipal code link may contain specific local licensing requirements, amendments, or exemptions I cannot access or cite accurately.

  3. Citing rules require accuracy. Your instructions correctly require that every claim cite a declared source. I cannot responsibly cite sources I cannot read.

  4. Legal guidance risk. A contractor relying on an inaccurate licensing guide could face penalties, fines, or license denial.

What I recommend instead:

  1. Verify the sources exist and provide their actual current text (or key excerpts) if you want me to write from them.

  2. Contact directly:

  3. Greenbriar Building Department (Pinellas County)
  4. Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board

  5. For statutory specifics: Florida Legislature's bill drafting service or a Florida business attorney

  6. If you can provide the actual text of the relevant statutes and municipal code sections, I can write an accurate, cited guide within your structure.

I'd rather decline than publish something that could mislead a contractor.
