Building & Development

In Kings County a building/development permit is required before starting any construction work. A permit is necessary to make sure minimum health and safety standards are met and that the proposed development conforms with the requirements of the Land Use Bylaws and the Provincial Building Code. During construction, Municipal Building Inspectors make periodic inspections to assure the owner of a building that those standards are met to protect you and your family.

When do you need a permit?
  • New house, relocations of homes including modular homes, mini homes, and mobile homes.
  • Building an addition onto any home or building.
  • Building a garage or accessory building more than 215 square feet. Note: Development Permit for residential accessory buildings less than 215 square feet.
  • Structural repairs or renovations.
  • Demolition of a structure.
