Which codes and exemptions should I review?
N/A. Maverick County maintains a Building Inspector and requires county permits, but its current official website does not publish the specific structural, residential, trade, energy, or fire-code editions enforced in 2026. Confirm applicable state standards and any project-specific requirements with the Building Inspector before design or construction. No current county exemption list was published. County permit requirements established for construction projects include new construction and building or home improvements, so applicants should not assume that minor work is exempt; confirm the scope with the Building Inspector at 830-773-4377.
