Permitting metal buildings in Hattiesburg
The city reviews every accessory building under its Land Development Code, and whether you’re on a house lot or a working farm changes the limits.
Size & approval
- Every accessory use and structure needs a certificate of zoning compliance.
- All detached accessory buildings together can’t exceed 33% of the house’s total floor area.
Location
- Accessory buildings can’t sit in the required front yard or between the street and the rear line of the house.
- In the A1 district, buildings more than 100 feet from the main street can go in the front yard.
Farms
- Agricultural buildings in agricultural districts are exempt from the 33% cap.
- Bona fide farm structures more than 250 feet from a residential neighbor skip the code’s design, height and size requirements.
In Hattiesburg, acreage changes the rules. On a house lot, accessory buildings are capped at a third of the home. On a working farm far from the neighbors, the size and height limits fall away. We check your district and distances before we size the building.
We also serve Petal, Purvis and the rest of the Pine Belt. See all of Mississippi.
