Permitting metal buildings in Harrisburg
Residential lots

- Over 150 sq ft, roofing and siding must be like the house’s.
Business & industry
- Commercial districts: accessory buildings stay below the main building; matching roofing and siding past 784 sq ft.
- Industrial districts: no size or height tie to the main building; matching roofing and siding past 1,024 sq ft.
Footings

- For other construction, the exemption stops at 400 sq ft.
In Harrisburg, a shop has to look like it belongs. Accessory buildings over 150 sq ft need roofing and siding like the house’s, and the 10-foot sidewall limit shapes the whole building. We plan the finishes and wall height around both from the first drawing.
We also serve Tea, Worthing and Lennox. See all of South Dakota.
