While Florida and Sumter County might have requirements for Portable Toilets at construction sites, the basic requirement is established by OSHA under 29 CFR 1926 (C) Sanitation at construction sites. There are requirements for the number, type and cleanliness and even for making sure there is TP and soap. I suspect also some access to water. There is also an exclusion for the need if there is a mobile crew. 29 CFR 1926 (c) (4). A mobile crew is one that is not there for days or weeks and can access facilities within 10 minutes.
That being the case , it would seem that if the facility has been there for months and no one is working , it would seem that it should be removed. That would save money for the contractor.
For me, if I were contracting for a home project, I would make the contractor establish that all his workers were a mobile crew and make sure they had mobile access to facilities rather than a Porta John in front of my house for months.
Note - lack of cleanliness is an OSHA violation.
