New Rules for Building a Home in Mecklenburg County 

Mecklenburg county is now requiring detailed plans for any new home being built, regardless of size. Before today, only homes of certain sizes needed to be submitted for approval. However, in a change aimed to find design flaws, Mecklenburg country must now review and approve the plans of any new home being built.

For most home builders, this will only be a hiccup. With most large neighborhood builders, the approval for each model will go smoothly. However, custom homes and homes with major changes may take a little longer. Be sure to plan accordingly.

This also applies for homeowners adding on to their homes. However, screened porches and decks may be exempt.
