Construction and Renovating

If you are planning to build, renovate, or demolish a residence, a Building Permit may be needed. 

The primary purpose for the issuance of the Building Permit is to ensure that all buildings comply with safety, health, building and zoning requirements of the District of Squamish and the Province of British Columbia.
