Public Comments: Proposed Change to the Plan Review Deposit from 25% to 75%

proposing an increase in the deposit required for all plan review submissions from 25% to 75%

The Houston Permitting Center invites the public to provide input on a proposed update to the Plan Review Deposit process. We are considering increasing the required deposit for all plan review submissions from 25% to 75%.  By raising the deposit, we can more effectively cover plan review costs and reinvest in improving permitting operations and services.

This change would impact the following service areas: 

  • Building Code Enforcement: Residential and Commercial Development
  • Office of the City Engineer: Residential, Commercial, and Public Infrastructure Development
