In response to this past weekend’s damaging storm, the Pharr Building and Code Compliance Department is prioritizing permitting and waiving fees for fence and re-roofing (shingle replacement) repairs.
Permitting fees will be waived through May 14. This waiver only applies to repairs for damages on fencing and shingles caused by the April 28 storm.
“This storm caused severe damage and we are working with our community to support our citizens as they clean up in the aftermath and work on repairs,” said Mayor Ambrosio Hernandez. “By waiving these fees, we can expedite the process for citizens to make the necessary repairs to their homes and properties,” added Hernandez.
The City of Pharr understands the hardship the storm has placed on residents and would like to relieve some of the added costs of repairs.
Permits can be obtained at BuildingPharr.com or at City Hall (118 South Cage Blvd, Pharr, TX 78577).
