HOW TO MAKE BUILDING _
A SUNDECK OR GARAGE EASY!

STEP 1. ASK QUESTIONS!

The City Development Services Department is here to help
you. Before you build on your property, ask us about
zoning and building bylaws in your area. Generally, zoning
bylaws tell you “what and where” you can build. Building
bylaws specify “how and out—of—what” to build. The time
to ask is before you build, not after the fact.

STEP 2. DRAW UP A PLAN.

Once you know >uiiding regulations you can have
drawings made up that comply with the local regulations.
if cestrictions are in place you may be able to have them
varied by applying for a DEVELOPMENT VARIANCE
PERMIT. Simply ask abuut that too!

STEP 3. GET A PERMIT.

Getting a building permit is your best insurance against
building “a mistake.” Any registered homeowner can
simply bring a site plan and two copies of the drawings into
City Hall. There you can fill out an application form for
minor works and pay a building fee.

STEP 4. QUICK PICK UP.

Most minor work permits can be approved quickly.

It's time well spent when you consider the alternatives.

If you build without a permit and are found in contraven-
tion of local bylaws you could be faced with removal, fines,
court and even jail.

DID YOU KNOW?

from the rear lot line, 2 feet from an interior lox
line, 10 feet from the house and less than 12 feet high.
