Permits in Rosharon

Rosharon is unincorporated, so most lots go through Brazoria County. The county's Floodplain Administration office issues building permits: new construction must sit 2 feet above the FEMA flood elevation in flood zones, and 24 inches above existing grade elsewhere. The septic (OSSF) permit from the county's Environmental Health department must be issued before the building permit, and windstorm certification applies across Brazoria County.

Rosharon addresses in other jurisdictions

Some addresses with a Rosharon ZIP code fall inside the city of Iowa Colony, which issues its own permits, and some are in Fort Bend County. We confirm the jurisdiction for your lot before we draw.

Questions

What does Brazoria County need before a building permit?

On lots without sewer, the septic (OSSF) permit comes first. Then the building permit, with the floor set above the flood elevation or existing grade as the county requires. We plan the site and the house around both.

Do you design barndominiums and shops?

Yes. We design barndominiums, shops and metal buildings, and prepare the drawings for the county.
