Concrete Pads in Webberville, Texas
Heritage Concrete Austin pours concrete pads in Webberville, Texas: RV and trailer pads, slabs for barns, garages and sheds, and pads for farm and ranch equipment. Webberville became a village in 2003, a Type C general-law city on the Colorado River, and a slab here is planned around three sets of village rules: the building permit, site development, and the limits on paving near the river.
The village lies on Farm Road 969 in eastern Travis County, fifteen miles east of Austin. Webberville Park, a 135-acre Travis County park at 2305 Park Lane, has a paved boat ramp on the Colorado River; Little Webberville Park, on Water Street in town, is a launch point for canoeists and kayakers; and Del Valle ISD serves local students through Joseph Gilbert Elementary, Dailey Middle School and Del Valle High School.

Building permits for a slab in the village
The Village's building permit checklist requires a permit to erect, construct, enlarge, alter, repair, improve, remove, convert, move or demolish any building or structure inside Webberville. Its examples include new accessory buildings and residential work such as decks, garages, patios, covered structures and swimming pools.
What a residential application needs
Residential applicants pay a $500 application fee and supply a perc test and the proposed septic design. Drawings must be to scale and fully dimensioned, and can include a site plan and a foundation plan, which a plan examiner checks against local building code; an inspection fee is collected once the permit is issued. A plot plan has to show every setback and easement, with existing and proposed structures dimensioned to the property lines, and the permit lapses if work hasn't started within 180 days.
A bare pad
The checklist says its list is not complete and asks people to call the Village. Whether an RV pad or slab with nothing built on it needs a building permit isn't spelled out, so make that call before the pour.

(512) 588-2862Site development, impervious cover and the Colorado River
Under the Village's 2012 Development Guide, no development may happen in the village or its extraterritorial jurisdiction until a site development permit is issued, and the Guide counts construction, excavation, grading, filling and clearing vegetation as development. Every kind of land modification also has to comply with the Water Quality ordinance.
Paving limits by zone
The Guide's water-quality limits set single-family impervious cover, the roofs and paving that rain can't soak through, at 10% to 35% of a lot in the Uplands zone and 5% to 20% in a Water Quality Buffer Zone. No impervious cover is allowed in the 100-year FEMA floodplain. Commercial and multi-family sites in the Uplands zone may reach 70% where rainwater is captured. These are 2012 figures, so confirm the current limits with the Village.
Setbacks from the river
Where land drains straight to the Colorado River, the minimum upstream setback runs to the upper catchment divide or 300 feet, whichever is less, and never less than 150 feet. The Guide's fee schedule lists a $250.00 development permit fee under the 2003 flood damage prevention ordinance and a $250.00 application processing fee under the 2006 one.
Flash Flood Alley
The City of Austin says Austin lies in the heart of Flash Flood Alley, and the National Weather Service warns that thunderstorms in the Austin area can dump in excess of 5 inches of rain in just several hours. During the 2015 Memorial Day weekend floods, flash flooding hit large areas of Williamson, Travis, Bastrop and Caldwell counties on May 25.

(512) 588-2862Concrete pads on flat Blackland Prairie ground
Travis County Parks describes the land at Webberville Park as the flat, gentle terrain typical of the Blackland Prairies, shaded by large oak and pecan trees, and the village's listed elevation is 407 feet. At Webberville's internal point, the spot the Census Bureau uses to place the village, USDA's soil map shows "Bergstrom silty clay loam, 0 to 1 percent slopes, rarely flooded." Its top layer holds 31% clay, and its linear extensibility, NRCS's gauge of shrink and swell, is 4.5%. Other parts of the village may differ; this is a single spot.
Getting water off a flat pad
Ground with almost no fall of its own leaves the slope to the concrete. Driveway practice credited to the Portland Cement Association asks for at least ⅛ inch of fall per foot, running away from the house and garage, and that pitch has to be set in the forms before any concrete arrives.
Joints and steel
For control joints, NRMCA's guidance has two cutting windows: a regular saw cut 4 to 12 hours after finishing, or an early-entry dry cut, usually at 1 to 4 hours. Wire mesh won't prevent cracks, it notes, but it helps hold cracks and joints closed, and it should be cut or stopped at each contraction joint.
Curing and first use
NRMCA's curing guidance calls for compounds meeting ASTM C309 or C1315, sprayed as soon as the sheen of surface water is gone, ideally in two coats at right angles; plastic sheeting should be at least 4 mils thick. The Michigan Concrete Association allows traffic on a new driveway or sidewalk once it has cured for 7 days, or sooner if tests show 2,500 psi.

(512) 588-2862A riverside farming village since Webber's Prairie
John F. Webber received a land grant here in 1832 and settled with his African American wife, Silvia Hector Webber. The post office, opened in 1846, was named Webber's Prairie, or sometimes Smithwick's after the first postmaster, Noah Smithwick, and the name became Webberville in 1853. The Village's own 2009 Comprehensive Plan dates the community's first establishment to 1827 and says it ran a ferry across the Colorado River before Texas was a state and before Austin was a city.
By the mid-1880s Webberville had steam gristmills and cotton gins, two churches, a school, four general stores and 200 residents, shipping mainly cotton and livestock. The population reached 382 in 1900; the post office closed in 1903, and the schools joined the Hornsby-Dunlap district in 1951. A newer landmark arrived in December 2011, when the 30-megawatt Webberville Solar Farm began generating power for Austin Energy.

(512) 588-2862Rural acreage, homes and the work around them
The Census Bureau counted 394 residents and 129 housing units in Webberville in 2020 and estimates 495 residents as of July 1, 2025. The Village's plan puts about 85% of the land inside its limits, and over 90% in its extraterritorial jurisdiction, in rural acreage, and counts ranching, general farming, truck farming and wildlife management among the valid future land uses.
Single-family detached houses take up most of the village's residential land, with manufactured homes mixed in, generally in its older parts; the 2020-2024 survey estimates count 59 of 186 units, about 32%, as mobile homes, with a median year built of 1987. The plan encourages site-built homes as replacements for manufactured homes wherever possible, and its vision is a historic rural community that keeps its rural character while making room for sensible growth.

(512) 588-2862How a pad job runs in Webberville
The usual sequence; the Village's answers and the lot decide the rest.
Free estimate and the lot
The estimate covers the pad's size and load, where it sits relative to the house, the septic field and any drainage way, and how water will leave it.
Village permits
Call the Village about the building permit and the site development permit, and bring a plot plan showing setbacks, easements and every structure.
Grade, forms and slope
The base is shaped and the forms are set with the fall built in, since the ground itself is nearly flat.
Pour, joint and cure
Joints are cut inside NRMCA's timing window, and a curing compound or sheeting goes on as soon as the surface sheen is gone.
Into service
Light use comes first; traffic waits for 7 days of curing or a strength test.

(512) 588-2862Pad questions from Webberville
Can a concrete pad go in the floodplain in Webberville?
Not under the Village's 2012 Development Guide, which allows no impervious cover at all in the 100-year FEMA floodplain. The Guide also sets wide setbacks where land drains straight to the Colorado River. The figures date from 2012, so check the current rule with the Village before choosing a spot.
Does the Village enforce my subdivision's deed restrictions?
No. The Village of Webberville says it does not regulate or enforce deed restrictions or covenants tied to a property, and it recommends checking them before starting any improvements. A pad can meet the Village's rules and still conflict with a covenant, so read yours first.
