The Developer’s Corner

Welcome to the Terrell Developer’s Corner. We believe you will find that Terrell offers one of the most pro-business and developer friendly environments in North Texas. We are a CAN DO community – let us know where you want to go and we will help you get there.

The purpose of this site is two-fold:

First, this is a one-stop information center for everything you need to know about the development processes, including zoning, platting, economic development incentives, and obtaining building permits. You’ll find fee schedules, guides, checklists, applications, submittal requirements, maps, ordinances, and contact information.

Second, information about current development projects in the works, recent building permits and certificates of occupancy issued with primary contact information are also posted here so that vendors, suppliers, contractors or service industry representatives who offer services and products to the local development or business community will have timely information about what is happening in Terrell. (Note: the City of Terrell encourages the use of local vendors and services, but does not endorse or promote any business in particular.)
