Euless requires driveways to be paved with concrete or asphalt, limits curb cuts to approved widths, and prohibits parking on unimproved surfaces anywhere on a residential lot.
In Euless, driveways must be constructed of concrete, asphalt, or approved paver materials under Chapter 82 (Zoning) and the Public Works design standards. Gravel, dirt, and grass driveways are not permitted for long-term parking in residential zones, and vehicles parked on such surfaces can be cited under the city nuisance code. Residential curb cuts are generally limited to a maximum width of 24 feet for a single-family home; wider curb cuts require a variance from Public Works. New driveways and driveway extensions require a driveway permit from the Building Inspections Department (817-685-1400), with fees typically under 100 dollars plus inspection. Driveways must be set back at least three feet from a side property line and cannot drain stormwater onto a neighboring lot. The parking surface on the lot must be continuous with the driveway, meaning an isolated slab in the rear yard without a connecting drive is not recognized as a parking space. Apron portions in the right-of-way between the sidewalk and street must be built to city specifications and are replaced at the owner expense when they fail.
