The Town’s Building Department administers and enforces the Ontario Building Code, reviews permit applications, conducts inspections and enforces zoning. Buyers should investigate permits for major additions, basement conversions, structural changes and changes of use.
See our Ontario Renovation Guides for broader permit guidance.
