RECEIVES CERTIFICATE OF APPRECIATION
Mayor Mike Felix and City Manager Allen Barnes presented
Michael Spencer with a Certificate of Appreciation at the January 21st

Community Development while the city conducted its search for and hired
a new Director of Community Development. Pictured from left to

The
Community Development Department is also located at the City Hall
building. This department is
responsible for building codes and inspections, enforcement of the city
codes and compliance through inspections, issuing building permits for new home construction,
permits for signs, fences, sprinkler systems, add-ons, swimming pools,
etc.
CONSIDERING ANY ADDITIONS OR REMODELING PROJECTS?
The Community Development Department
reminds citizens to please contact our office
at 972-675-1633 before beginning any new building or remodeling projects
to determine if a building permit is required.
Permits
are usually required for the following:
New
buildings
Additions (bedrooms, bathrooms, family rooms, garages, etc.)
Residential work (concrete, decks, patio covers, garages, fences,
carports, fireplaces, pools, water heaters, sheds, retaining walls, etc.)
Renovations (kitchen expansions, room expansions, foundation repair,
reroofing, etc.)
Electrical systems
Plumbing systems
HVAC systems (heating, ventilating and air-conditioning)
Your
home or business is an investment. If your construction project does
not comply with the codes adopted by your community, the value of your
investment could be reduced. Property insurers may not cover work
done without permits and inspections. If you decide to sell a home
or building that has had modifications without a permit you may be
required to tear down the addition, leave it unoccupied or make costly
repairs. Our knowledgeable code officials will gladly answer any
questions you may have and will provide you with the resources and
information needed for compliance with the applicable building codes.
