Carports
General Information
A permit is required for the installation of a carport. A homeowner can perform this work at his homestead and does not need to register as a contractor with the City, but must apply for a building permit prior to beginning any construction. If a contractor is used, that contractor must be registered with the City of College Station.
Applications and Fees
A permit fee is required upon approval of application. Submission for a building permit should be made through our online eTRAKiT system.
Plans Submittal Requirements
- A copy of a site plan or property survey with dimensions indicating the location of the carport on the property.
- A plan with dimensions indicating how the structure will be constructed and anchored. This plan should include materials used and spacing of framing members.
Inspections
An inspection will be required upon completion of work. Contact Planning & Development Services at (979) 764-3570 or visit eTRAKiT to schedule an inspection.
