Building and repair permits are part of the public record. Every week, Council sees a list of recently issued permits. The most recent lists are posted here for public awareness.
Permit Lists can also be found in Council and Committee Minutes and Agendas (Permit Lists are located inside the Agendas for Council)
The Residential Building Permits Dashboard offers residents, developers, and other interested parties access to up-to-date data on approved permits, while enhancing transparency around timelines for obtaining permits for new builds, renovations, and additions.
