NEWS RELEASE
CITY OF TIMMINS
*************************
Residents and developers wanting to build, renovate, or demolish an existing building, can now apply for a building permit online and track the approval process digitally through the City’s new online building permit application portal at Timmins.ca.
The City is modernizing the process to improve efficiency and administrative processing, making it easier to submit a complete building permit application. Through the online portal, users can submit their application, upload all the required documentation for their project, and track the application status. The system will also allow users to submit and manage multiple applications at the same time.
“The goal is to streamline the permitting process and make it easier for residents and developers to move forward with critical projects” says Scott Tam, Director of Growth and Infrastructure. “Improving our permitting process is one way that the city can support housing development and capacity in Timmins.”
The new online service is on-demand. Applications can be submitted at any time, and the portal will provide step-by-step instructions on how to submit a complete application. Received applications are sent directly to the City’s Building Division for review.
