Guadalupe County sets no building height limit. Texas counties lack zoning authority, so height caps in unincorporated areas exist only through HOA deed restrictions and plat notes. Seguin, Schertz, and Cibolo regulate height inside their city limits.
No county ordinance caps building height in unincorporated Guadalupe County. Texas counties have no zoning power; their only land regulation is subdivision platting under Local Government Code Chapter 232. Height limits on a house, barn, or accessory structure come from recorded HOA deed restrictions and subdivision plat notes, not the county. FAA rules and Randolph AFB restricted airspace limit structure height near the base around Schertz and Cibolo and around Seguin-Guadalupe County Airport. Once inside a municipality such as Schertz or Cibolo, that city's zoning height limits apply.
The county issues no height citations in unincorporated areas because it has no zoning authority. HOAs enforce their own height covenants through civil action, not county code enforcement.
