If you are wanting to build a deck, garage or an addition to your existing house, you will need a permit. Construction cannot start prior to obtaining a permit.
Please call the office 306-345-1200 or email villagebelleplaine@xplornet.com for any questions or to submit your information.
Development Permits
To build a new structure (larger than 100 ft2) or for a new use (example: change of occupancy) of a property, a Development Permit is required. Development permits relate to community planning; specifically, what can and cannot be done on or to a property. It is the “what” and “where” of the building process. Regulations for development are found in our Zoning bylaw which is regulated by The Planning and Development Act, 2007.
To apply for a Development Permit, you will need to:
- Complete and submit a Development Permit Application along with any required documentation as per the application form.
- Submit the associated application fee to the Village Office.
Please ensure ALL required documents are submitted to avoid delays. Incomplete applications may not be accepted. Council will review the application and either approve, approve with conditions, or refuse the development. Development cannot start prior to obtaining a permit.
Building Permits
To make any structural changes to an existing building, or once a Development Permit is approved for a new structure, a Building Permit application can be made. Building Permits relate to the construction of structures and the regulations are found in our Building bylaw. Professional Building Inspections, Inc. (PBI) has been contracted by the Village to perform building inspections. Building permit applications and payments should be submitted to the Village office, not directly to PBI.
Permits are not required if building a fence, painting your house, replacing roofing materials, windows, doors, siding, etc.
Building Permits may take up to 10 business days to process. Construction cannot start prior to obtaining a permit.
Please read the attached information and complete the required pages. Submit your completed forms to the Village office either electronically (by email) or in-person.
