Chapter 18 BUILDINGS AND DEVELOPMENT*
ARTICLE II. GENERAL REGULATIONS*
Sec. 18-59. Portable buildings.
(a) Permits. Except to the extent expressly authorized by an effective permit issued by the building
official, it shall be unlawful for any person to erect, improve, construct, install, affix, enlarge, convert,
demolish or structurally alter any portable building within the city, or to cause or allow any such activity
at a place the person owns or controls. Permit requirements (and exemptions) shall be generally the same
as for site-built buildings of similar size. However, a permit for a large portable building can only be
effective while:
(1) The building is located in a portable building district; or
(2) The building is used temporarily in connection with construction activities for which another permit
is in effect, but is neither used for sleeping quarters nor used for food preparation.
This regulation shall be uniformly applied and enforced without distinction as to whether the building is
manufactured on-site or off-site. All federal, state and local requirements for construction, inspection,
transportation, erection and installation must be complied with in connection with any portable building.
(b) Public schools . Until June 1, 2002, and notwithstanding subsection (a), permits may be issued for
the erection, placement, use or occupancy of a large portable building by a school district having the
power of eminent domain, if all of the following circumstances are present: .
(1) The chief administrative officer of the district has certified to the city that such building is necessary
for the district to comply with state-mandated teacher-pupil ratio requirements, and the district, based on
present plans and projections, will make every effort to remove the additional temporary buildings;
(2) The building is located on a preexisting school site; and
(3) No more than 12,000 square feet of gross floor area are included in portable buildings, large or small,
on that site.
(c) Effect of section . Chapter 70 of this Code shall apply to large portable buildings, and it shall be
unlawful to use the city streets to move any such building except pursuant to a license and permit issued
under chapter 70. If a permit for a large portable building is authorized by this section, the building is
exempt from the requirement in chapter 70 that moving permits be restricted to routes ending outside the
city limits. This section does not prohibit the continued use or occupancy'of large portable buildings by a
school district having the power of eminent domain, if the buildings were in existence on the effective
date of Ordinance No. 1337 of the City of West University Place, Texas (relating to buildings, structures
and related regulations, etc.) and have not been substantially altered or moved.
(Code 2003, § 6.408; Ord. No. 1843, § 1(app. A), 2-26-2007)
