ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Office Closure: February 16th - Louis Riel Day
New Services Available: Mid-West Planning District has been granted authority to handle ALL building permits regardless the size or occupancy type. This includes new builds and renovations. We strongly advise to schedule a pre-project consultation (call, meeting, on-site visit) to make sure you have everything you will need for your application and any planning applications that may be necessary before a permit can be issued.
Discontinuing Cloudpermit: We are no longer using Cloudpermit for application submissions or permit management for Building, Development, Demolition and Plumbing permits. Please contact us directly to book inspections and ask questions.
MWPD Remote Office Hours schedule has been released. See dates on our Contact page.
REMINDER:
An approved Conditional Use Order or Variance Order does not equal a building or development permit. Once you receive an approval for a Conditional Use or Variance, you will still need to apply for and be granted either a development or building permit before you can start your project. Starting work on your project before the development and/or building permit is issued may result in penalty fees and/or a Stop Work Order.
A development permit does not equal a building permit. You may be granted the development permit while your building permit is under review. Starting work on the project before the building permit is issued may result in penalty fees and/or a Stop Work Order.
