Do You Have An Open Building Permit?
There are currently many open building permits waiting for confirmation that the work has
been completed. The City has begun an educational blitz to property owners regarding the
possibility that there might be open building permits for their property and assisting them
to close those permits.
The National Building Code (NBC) contains a minimum set of standards for construction
for the safety of the occupants and the structure itself and, therefore, it is important to
complete all permits in a timely fashion to protect your family and investment. Further
to this, the NBC places the onus on the property owner to ensure all outstanding work is
completed and the required inspection(s) have been concluded.
Permits stay with a property, they do not follow the builder or previous property owner.
Permits are paid up front by the applicant and this covers all the necessary inspections.
Letters to affected property owners will be sent or dropped off notifying them that there
are open building permits for their property. A copy of the last available inspection will be
included along with information on how to proceed. These letters will arrive from either
the City of Martensville or BuildTECH Consulting and Inspections. Information for the
property owner on how to proceed will be included.
If you purchased or renovated a property within the last 10 years and you are unsure if
there are outstanding permits on your property, please email [email protected] to
confirm the status of all permits for your property.
