Typical review lane

No Concho County OSSF or building review timeline was published. TCEQ’s general OSSF rule requires approval or denial of a complete application within 30 days, subject to the county’s local review requirements.

Treat this as a planning signal, not a guaranteed approval date. Completeness, corrections, resubmittals, and agency workload control the actual clock.

01

Confirm jurisdiction

Verify the parcel is inside this agency’s service area and note whether a city, state, fire marshal, septic authority, or utility district also has approval authority.

02

Assemble a complete package

Prepare legible plans, site information, project valuation, ownership authorization, contractor information, and any energy, floodplain, zoning, or utility documentation the issuing office requires.

03

Track the review record

Keep the permit number, approved plan set, correction comments, fee receipts, and inspection results together. Those records establish the compliance trail for the next trade.

Project questions

Frequently asked questions for Concho County

Who handles permitting for this jurisdiction?

Concho County Judge’s Office / Concho County OSSF Program and Floodplain Administration is the identified county-level authority for this profile. Confirm that the property is in its service area before filing.

How should I begin an application?

No verified online portal was located in the reviewed public materials. Contact 325-732-4321 (County Judge/Floodplain contact); 325-732-4322 (Courthouse/County Clerk) and request the current application route before preparing a final submittal.

How long might review take?

No Concho County OSSF or building review timeline was published. TCEQ’s general OSSF rule requires approval or denial of a complete application within 30 days, subject to the county’s local review requirements.

How are inspections scheduled?

Contact the Concho County Judge’s Office at 325-732-4321 for the local OSSF application, permit, inspection, and floodplain process. The county order requires inspection for OSSF construction, alteration, extension, and repair; complete planning materials must be submitted to the county permitting authority. No online scheduling portal or separate inspection phone was published.

Which codes and exemptions should I review?

Concho County publishes no general unincorporated building-permit portal or county ICC building-code edition. Its TCEQ-approved OSSF order requires an application, permit, and inspection for construction, alteration, extension, or repair of every residential or commercial OSSF regardless of tract size, and requires maintenance for covered aerobic systems by a TCEQ-registered maintenance company unless an approved owner exception applies. The County Judge is the listed county floodplain contact; municipal codes apply inside incorporated cities. Concho County’s authorized-agent order specifically removes the usual tract-size exemption by requiring an application, permit, and inspection for every residential or commercial OSSF regardless of acreage. No county cosmetic-work exemption list was published. Any state emergency-repair or grandfathered-system exception must be checked against the stricter county order before relying on it.

What makes an application complete

A portal submission is only as strong as its supporting record.

Before you click submit, make sure the drawings agree with the site plan, project description, valuation, ownership authorization, and contractor information. If the work changes structure, occupancy, drainage, fire protection, energy performance, or utility demand, describe that scope plainly. Ambiguous narratives create correction cycles and delay the field schedule.

Save the confirmation number, payment receipt, uploaded plan set, and every correction comment. Those records are the backbone of a defensible compliance file when multiple trades or agencies share responsibility.

Submission quality check

Site: address, parcel, access, setbacks, and existing conditions are consistent.

Scope: structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, fire, and energy work is identified.

Closeout: inspection contacts and the final approval path are understood before work begins.
