Permits – Flood Plain

Permits

The City of Weston Lakes requires a Development Permit/Flood Plain Permit for all structures and buildings built within the City of Weston Lakes.  A permit application and site plan must be submitted to the City Hall at 8045 FM 359, Fulshear, Suite #200 on Mondays and Wednesdays 11 AM to 5 PM., or you may email the permit and site plan to  citysec@westonlakestexas.gov. The permit fee will be collected at the time of issue of the permit.   See “Schedule of Fees” below. 

The permit should be accompanied by a survey plat of the proposed building showing the placement of the building on the plat.  If the construction is in or near the flood zone, a pre-construction elevation certificate  along with the permit and the placement of the structure on the plat or tract will be required along with the permit request. After the structure is complete a post-construction elevation certificate is required. The fee for this permit will be dependent upon the research necessary to establish elevation and other data related to the placement of the structure within the flood plain and will be determined upon issuance of the permit. 

Additionally, if the structure is within the gated community of Weston Lakes an Architectural Control Committee authority to proceed is required; however, the Flood Plain Permit will be issued before the ACC authority to proceed is issued.  Construction may not begin until the permit is issued.  Builders and Citizens should allow enough time for the permit review by the City’s Flood Plain Administrator.
