Obtaining your Occupancy Permit

Cheakamus Crossing

An Occupancy Permit must be granted by a Building Official prior to the occupancy of any building or part thereof.

Once all required final inspections have been approved, the building permit file is reviewed for closure. At this time, a Building Official reviews the building permit file to ensure all required documentation has been received.

If any items remain outstanding, the Building Official will contact the Owner or Authorized Agent to provide a list of any items that remain outstanding and need to be resolved prior to closure of the permit file, and issuance of the Occupancy Permit.

Occupancy requirements

In addition to approved final inspections, all outstanding paperwork is required to be submitted, reviewed and approved by a Building Official, prior to completion and closure of your building permit.

The required documentation varies based on the scope of work, materials used, and other factors.

Refer to the Documents Required for Occupancy or File Closure to determine what documents may be applicable to your project and will need to be submitted to complete your permit.

Once you have compiled all outstanding documents, please submit all final documentation to the Building Department in one complete package, labelled with the permit number and project address.

Highway use, clearing and inspection fee refund request

If a Highway Use, Clearing and Inspection Fee has been charged on your permit, you have 2 years from the date of issuance to apply for a refund.

After substantial completion of the project, and within 2 years of the date of permit issuance, complete and submit the Highway Use, Clearing and Inspection Fee Refund Request Form, including your direct deposit information, to the Building Department.

When you apply for the refund, Building Department staff will schedule roads and utilities inspections on your behalf. These inspections are conducted to ensure no damage has been done to municipal works during the course of construction, and that requirements pertaining to connections to municipal services are met.

The refund will automatically be processed when the roads and utilities inspections are approved.
