Building and renovation considerations in Conover
Small projects, simple zoning. Conover treats single-family homes on platted lots, house additions, accessory buildings, fences, carports and driveways as small projects. They still need a zoning permit, but not a formal plan submittal.
Fence and yard rules. Conover doesn't allow fences in front yards; side and rear yards are fine. We lay out fences, decks and outbuildings with that in mind.
Accessory building size. Catawba County requires a building permit for utility buildings over 12 feet. Smaller sheds may only need City zoning.
Zoning before building permits. Catawba County won't issue a building permit without City zoning approval, so we do that step first.
