About each permit

Zoning and Platting Application

$500 plus $5 an acre for a zone change — cheap against Richardson's $1,500 and New Braunfels' $1,000 plus $100 an acre. A commercial variance or special exception is $500, against $200 residential. The line worth knowing for anyone selling alcohol is the TABC separation variance at $250, with each subsequent request $500: that is the application to make where premises sit closer to a school or church than the code allows. A zoning verification letter is $50 and is the cheapest way to establish whether a use is permitted before committing. Plats run $150 plus $35 an acre preliminary, capped at $7,000, and $350 plus $55 an acre final, capped at $5,000. A 3 per cent service fee applies to card payments.
