Building permit application
How to apply for a building permit?
There are 3 ways to apply for a permit:
- The fastest: By completing your application online on our Cloud Permit platform.
- By sending us an email (info@csrpa.ca) that include the attached form, your site plan and a copy of your tax invoice (or the authorization from the owner).
- The slowest: In person by scheduling an appointment by phone 506-727-7979. You will need to bring the completed form, your site plan and your property tax invoice (or the authorization from the owner).
