Subdivisions
All subdivisions in the County served by On-Site Sewer Facilities (OSSF) must be reviewed for compliance with applicable environmental regulations before they receive approval from the Bell County Commissioners’ Court.
State and County regulations require that subdivision planning material be submitted to our office whenever a property is divided into two or more parcels of land. This includes persons proposing residential subdivisions, manufactured housing communities, multiunit residential developments, business parks, or other similar uses, and using OSSF for sewage disposal.
