Building Permits & Inspections

Please contact the Angus City Hall at (903) 874-3513 before beginning any construction on your property.  This is to insure that the property is properly zoned for your project and that your project falls within all city ordinance requirements.  You will need to fill out a building permit request form and provide the city with a copy of your building plans for review by our inspector. 

Any construction (or placement) of a building done without a permit from the city may be subject to double the cost of the permit fee.  If it violates city code, you may be required to remove it from your property. 

The City of Angus requires building permits for the following:

Construction of New Residences

Construction of Commercial Buildings

Outbuildings (whether constructed onsite or moved onto the property). This includes storage buildings, barns, carports, etc.

Pools

Storm Shelters

Decks/Patios

Additions to existing buildings (both Residential and Commercial)
