Building Permit: Application
A Building Permit is required for most renovation and construction projects, including new buildings greater than 107 sq. Ft., additions, significant renovations, elevated sundecks, and so on. For removal of any structure, a Demolition Permit is required. Permit applications and corresponding plans undergo a technical review to ensure that projects comply with the Ontario Building Code and maintain the health, welfare and safety of the public. A series of inspections and approvals are undertaken during the life of a Permit to ensure work is completed in a satisfactory manner.
