Submit Your Building Permits Online

All permits may be submitted online and completed by clicking on the appropriate link below. The link will take you to a form that can be filled out electronically. Once you have completed the required information, click the blue “Submit & Sign” button in the lower right hand corner. If you have any supporting documentation (plans, etc.), please email those to buildingplans@cleburne.net and include the address of the project in the email. 

Once your permit is processed, you will receive an email from City staff. When your permit is approved, City staff will call you to let you know your permit is ready. At that time, you can choose to have your permit emailed to you, or you can request a hard copy. Hard copy permits will be delivered to you by the building inspector at the time you call for an inspection.

Submit Your Building Permits In-Person

You may drop off permit applications at City Hall. A drop bin will be located outside the front door of City Hall for any hard copy materials needing to be processed.

Issuing Your Building Permit

Once your permit has been approved, City staff will email a copy of the approved permit to you at the email address provided on the application. This permit should be printed and displayed at the job site.

If you cannot receive a permit by email, City staff will print a hard copy and it will be delivered by the Building Inspector at the time of inspection.
