What to include with your building permit application

When you apply online, you can upload documents with your application. Make sure to upload all of the required documents. If your application is not complete, this will extend the time it takes to issue your permit. The submittal date of each permit application (e.g. for the purposes of Permit Streamlining Act and shot clock requirements) is the date that all processing fees are paid.
