You may make applications for a Building Permit under two different streams:
Complete Application Stream:
This stream is for building permit applications that are deemed to be complete. A building permit application is considered complete when:
- The permit application form has been completed.
- The application is signed by the owner of the property or the authorized agent of the owner.
- All attachments are submitted with the application.
- The application is accompanied by two sets of plans and specifications.
- The application includes a Zoning Certificate (ZC).
- Confirmation that all Applicable Law has been satisfied.
- All fees have been paid.
The Building Code specifies the following time frames for the review of complete building permit applications:
- 10 business days for a house
- 15 business days for a small building
- 20 business days for a large building
- 30 business days for a complex building
Within the specified time frame, we will either issue or refuse to issue a building permit and provide in writing all
reasons for the refusal.
Incomplete Application Stream:
This stream is for applications where you are unsure that your project complies with all building regulations.
There is no time frame for review of this stream of permits and no re-examination fee.
It is strongly recommended that you submit an application for a Preliminary Project Review (PPR) prior to submitting an application in this stream.
