A floodplain permit is required before development in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, including construction, additions, clearing, fill, grading, mining, dredging, drilling, and similar work. No general county ICC building-code edition was verified. OSSF permitting follows Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 366 and 30 TAC Chapter 285 through the applicable authority. No general cosmetic or minor-work exemption list was published. Floodplain development outside the applicable FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area may not require this county floodplain permit, but the Floodplain Administrator determines applicability. Other local, state, or federal permits may still be required.

Before contacting the permit counter

A productive call starts with a clear description of the property and proposed work. Keep the site address, parcel or assessor number, project valuation, existing occupancy, approximate square footage, structural scope, contractor information, and desired start date in front of you. Those facts help the Authority Having Jurisdiction route the question to building, planning, fire, environmental health, or another reviewing discipline.
