The permit must be submitted in person to the Public Works Administration Office at 1400 Main Street Suite 320.  Allow a 24-hour turnaround from submission to decision.
  2. Contractors should then submit their Utility Service Application with payment of a $2500. security deposit at Southlake Water Utilities(SWU), located at 1400 Main Street, Suite 200 (lobby level), in Southlake Town Square. Billing questions may be directed to SWU at 817.748.8052.
