Our electrical contractor license (TECL #39622) is statewide. We file the permit, handle the utility paperwork and meet the inspector.
- 01
Who issues electrical permits: Most of Lost Creek is no longer inside Austin city limits. Austin Ordinance 20240829-163 released about 657 acres known as the Lost Creek MUD Remaining Property from the city's full-purpose limits after a May 2024 election. For unincorporated land, Travis County Development Services issues development permits through MGO Connect, and the Travis County Fire Marshal issues commercial building permits through tcfmopermits.com.
- 02
How to apply: Travis County says any development outside city limits needs a county permit, and it offers a Non-Residential Permit. The Fire Marshal requires plan review and a permit before construction or substantial improvement of any commercial, public or multi-family building, or a change of use. The county does not list a separate electrical permit. If Austin Energy is the provider, Austin Energy says an electric permit from Austin Development Services is needed for projects in an ETJ.
- 03
Inspections: The Travis County Fire Marshal takes inspection requests by phone at its main office. Not published for electrical work.
- 04
What to know locally: Lost Creek's status changed in 2024, so check each address: Austin's ordinance released the Lost Creek MUD Remaining Property, and sites still inside Austin city limits follow Austin's own permit rules. The City of Austin's Property Profile tool, linked from Austin Energy's contractor page, shows the jurisdiction for an address. Travis County enforces the 2021 International Fire Code from January 1, 2026, and requires a Fire Marshal Certificate of Compliance before a facility opens to the public.
- 05
Utility coordination: Not confirmed on an official page for Lost Creek. Austin Energy and Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC) both serve parts of Travis County. If the site is on Austin Energy, commercial projects over 350 amps single-phase or 225 amps three-phase need an Electric Service Planning Application (ESPA), a site plan CAD file and a riser diagram, and Austin Energy asks ETJ projects to include a plot plan. If the site is on PEC, new commercial service needs a site plan, a one-line diagram, the 911 address, a warranty deed, a plat and the service size in amps.

Typical review time: Not published by the city.
