Unincorporated Scurry County

No public evidence of a general unincorporated-county building permit requirement was found. Verified narrower controls are OSSF permitting through the county's TCEQ-authorized local program and county-road right-of-way use paperwork through the Commissioners Court page.

Note: No public exempt-work list was found for unincorporated Scurry County. Verify directly with the county.

1. 01
   Confirm the parcel is outside Snyder city limits.

3. 03
   For OSSF matters, TCEQ's local-contact directory lists the Scurry County Authorized Agent as serving the entire county except City of Snyder.
4. 04
   If the project involves septic or on-site sewage facilities, contact the Scurry County Health Unit and OSSF inspector.
5. 05
   If the project will use or disturb county road right-of-way, obtain the county's posted ROW Use and Indemnification Agreement from the Commissioners Court page and coordinate with the county before work begins.
6. 06
   If the site has other development constraints such as floodplain, subdivision, or access issues, verify them directly with the county.
