Securing a building permit follows a structured process governed by local municipalities. It begins with a pre-application consultation to ensure project alignment with zoning bylaws and building codes. Following submission, municipal staff conduct a thorough review, assessing compliance with regulations. Upon approval, the permit is issued, granting authorization for construction or renovation. Throughout the process, periodic inspections ensure adherence to standards. Finally, upon completion, a final inspection is conducted, leading to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for lawful occupancy.
