Round Rock permits urban beekeeping subject to setback and hive limits under the zoning code. Hives must be registered with the Texas Apiary Inspection Service.
Round Rock allows residential beekeeping with specific restrictions. Hives must be set back a minimum distance from property lines and neighboring structures (typically 10–25 feet). The number of hives permitted per lot depends on the lot size. A fly-away barrier (at least 6 feet tall) must be installed if hives face a neighboring property. Beekeepers must register with the Texas Apiary Inspection Service (TAIS) as required by state law. Round Rock Code Enforcement responds to bee-related nuisance complaints.
Non-compliant beekeeping: Code Enforcement citation, fines up to $2,000. Hives may be ordered removed.
