You need a permit to demolish any residential or commercial building in the City.
Before we will issue the permit, the Inspector will ask for the following things:
Once a permit is issued, the demolition must proceed in accordance with the National Building Code and Canadian Standards Association's requirements for safety at demolition sites.
The demolition process must include removal of all foundation material and restoration of the site with suitable fill, graded to match the surrounding properties as well as party wall repairs when required.
Please refer to the Permit Fees and Rates page for more information.
