Georgetown shed permits
Georgetown shed permit and official survey guide
Georgetown requires a permit and an official site survey showing property lines and the proposed accessory-building location with dimensions.
Open Georgetown’s shed requirementsPreliminary guidance only. Verify the current package for your address before filing.
Official site survey required
The city does not publish a small-shed permit exemption on this page. An accessory building over 200 square feet also needs an engineered foundation plan.
The local drawing requirement
A preliminary site plan is not the required survey
Use the official survey from your closing documents or title company. The city asks for that document, not an aerial-derived property drawing.
Before you file
- Obtain the official site survey.
- Mark the proposed building location and dimensions.
- Add an engineered foundation plan when the shed exceeds 200 square feet.
- Follow the city’s accessory-building setbacks and permit process.
