Permitting metal buildings in Olive Branch
The city issues the permit to a licensed contractor, and both the house and the rear yard limit how big the building can be.
Height & size
- Accessory buildings can’t exceed 20 feet or 50% of the house’s square footage.
- They also can’t cover more than 30% of the rear yard.
Placement
- Set the building 10 feet from the rear line, 5 feet from the side line and 10 feet from the house.
- Closer than 10 feet to the house, it counts as part of the house and must meet the house’s setbacks.
The permit
- Building, electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits must be issued to a licensed contractor, with a site plan attached.
- Corner lots need a site inspection before the permit issues.
In Olive Branch, both limits apply. A building has to stay under half the house’s square footage and within 30% of the rear yard. We check both numbers and keep the building out of drainage areas before the site plan goes in.
We also serve Hernando, Byhalia and the rest of DeSoto County. See all of Mississippi.
