The lot an owner ends up with
The First Baptist Church of Mt. Calm has stood at 200 Allyn Avenue since 1884, its 1978 state marker says, and its present building was completed in 1954. Out on the highway, TxDOT redesignated about 0.8 mile of State Highway 31 in and near the city as Business State Highway 31-K in 2015. A lot at either place wants the same three things.
Long service comes first: the American Concrete Institute's parking lot guide puts a concrete lot's typical life at 20 years or more, and its upkeep chapters cover joint and crack sealing, repairs at partial and full depth, and slab jacking. Then a plain build: mesh in a parking pavement adds no structural capacity, NRMCA's parking-lot FAQ says, and the ACI guidance it quotes doesn't recommend regularly spaced isolation joints. Last come accessible stalls, their access aisles level with the spaces they serve and sloped no steeper than 1:48.
A worn entrance or walk at the building goes with entrance and walk repairs; the whole range is on the Mount Calm services page.

Stalls, entrance and grades
The stall count sets the accessible spaces, and grades are set to carry rain off.
An even subgrade
The soil is brought to one type, moisture and density throughout; NRMCA asks for that rather than a special subbase.
Pour, texture, cure
Concrete at a 3- to 5-inch slump is bull-floated, lightly broomed and cured with a membrane compound, then striped.

A concrete parking lot runs $1,500 to $3,500 a stall by a national 2026 average, and thicker pavement costs more per square foot, as the ticket shows. Grading runs about $60 an hour for a tractor and operator, and a compacted gravel-and-sand subbase $10 to $20 per cubic yard where one is used (national, 2026). Averages, not our prices.

Permits, entrances and base: lot questions
Does a new lot outside Mount Calm's city limits need a county permit?
Hill County's Development Permit, a $100 new-address and floodplain form for land outside city limits, lists "Business-Type" among its uses, and an entrance culvert in county right-of-way needs a permit under the county's 2025 policy. We found no county building permit. Inside the city, ask the City.
Does a lot entrance onto Business 31-K need a TxDOT permit?
Business 31-K is still part of the state highway system, so a new or altered entrance onto it falls under TxDOT's Form 1058 access driveway permit; Hill County is in TxDOT's Waco District. Right-of-way work waits for the executed permit and 24 hours' notice.
How much truck traffic can a lot carry without a subbase?
Fewer than 200 heavily loaded trucks a day, by ACI 330R-08 as NRMCA's FAQ quotes it: at that level, especially at low speeds, pumping normally won't damage the pavement.
