You'll also need a completed redemption affidavit executed under oath and notarized—include an oversurplus refund form if your situation qualifies. The affidavit directs you to deposit payment with the Stone County Collector of Revenue, so follow their submission instructions for routing. Submitting an affidavit for a collector deed application? Include an original $10 with the affidavit, broken down as a $1.50 fee plus an $8.50 local office charge. Online transactions require passing a security check before you can proceed.

Building applications in Stone County must include a detailed site plan showing all existing and proposed structures, plus setback distances. New construction setbacks are 25 feet from front and back, 10 feet from each side. Before requesting an inspection, have your building site staked—inspectors may take up to five working days to visit a properly staked site, and an unstaked site can add about a week of delay. Need to divide property? A lot split can divide an existing parcel into no more than two tracts so permits can be issued without replatting. The County Engineer must act within 30 days. Preliminary plat submissions are due by 2 p.m. on the cutoff day—follow the checklist and include 10 copies plus the fee.
