Gravenhurst’s Building Division has launched its new e-permitting software.
The new Cloudpermit system, partially funded by the Provincial Government, will greatly enhance homeowner’s and building industry professional’s ability to submit various permit applications through the Town at their leisure by visiting www.Gravenhurst.ca/building.
“We’ve seen a steep increase in the amount of building permits submitted to the Town, especially over the past two years,” says Chief Building Official Andy Jones. “This new electronic process will help to make the process of obtaining a permit even more efficient and easy for the public, builders and designers for all sorts of building and renovation projects they may be planning.”
As of September 1st, the public will be able to use the online software to submit applications, inspection requests, seek approvals, submit questions, and make direct payments from the comfort of their own home or office, any time of day, seven days a week.
“Our traditional paper-based applications will also continue, pending permitted in-person appointments made through the Building Division, adds Jones. “Cloudpermit will add a significant level of convenience for the public and staff to conduct timely business with the Division.
