Wichita Falls exempts a detached shed under 200 square feet from a building permit, and the city has partnered with a third-party software provider, Camino Technologies, to guide residents step-by-step through the residential accessory-structure permit process rather than relying solely on paper forms or in-person staff walkthroughs. As in most of Texas, Wichita County itself has essentially no general building-code enforcement authority in unincorporated areas outside city limits, so a shed built outside Wichita Falls, Iowa Park, or the county's other incorporated cities typically faces no county-level size threshold at all.
