The documents required depend on your project type.
Required:
- Building Plan: Drawings that show the layout and construction details of the building (for example: floor plans, elevations, foundation details, or structural information).
- Central Services Form: A drawing that shows the location of buildings on your property, including setbacks from lot lines, driveways, parking areas, and service connections. This form may be required if connecting to municipal water or sewer.
- Development Permit: Some projects require development permit approval before a building permit can be issued. Supporting information may be required to confirm the project meets zoning requirements.
You may be asked to submit:
- a site plan
- construction drawings
- building elevations
- floor plans
- project description
- construction cost estimate
- engineered drawings (if required)
- water and sewer connection information (if applicable)
A site plan typically shows:
- property boundaries
- location of existing buildings
- location of proposed construction
- setbacks from property lines
