Permitting metal buildings in Mitchell
Size & height
- Commission records cite a 2,000 sq ft accessory building limit and a 22-foot height limit on residential lots.
- Some lots carry lower caps; recent cases cite 1,200 sq ft, and 1,050 sq ft in one planned development.
Going bigger
- Oversize and height variances go to the city Planning Commission.
- It meets at noon in the Council Chambers at City Hall, 612 N Main St.
Placement
- Front and rear yard setbacks of 25 feet are common in the records; your zoning district sets the figure.
- Building closer than the setback takes its own variance, heard by the same commission.
In Mitchell, the attached garage can count too. In at least one planned development, the cap covers attached and detached accessory space combined. We measure what’s already on your lot before sizing a new building.
We also serve Ethan, Mount Vernon and Alexandria. See all of South Dakota.
