The Town of The Blue Mountains has taken steps to streamline its process for building permits.
The town recently announced the launch of its online Cloudpermit system, which has been implemented in an effort to enhance and streamline the process of applying for building permits.
On Jan. 1, 2025, Cloudpermit became available for residents, builders, and members of the business community to apply for and track building permits anywhere, at any time. The cloud-based system offers the flexibility to start an application, complete it later, and receive email updates regarding its status.
“The introduction of Cloudpermit aims to provide customers with a more transparent and user-friendly experience by enhancing efficiency, reducing administrative burdens, and facilitating communication between staff and applicants,” the town stated in a news release.
While the town’s building services department transitions to the Cloudpermit system, applications will still be accepted by email or through the town’s secure sharefile using the existing PDF application forms until May 1, 2025. Building Services staff are committed to ensuring a smooth transition for customers and are available to provide assistance at Town Hall during regular business hours.
