Overview

The City of Brampton Building Division's below grade entrance package, which the City's homeowners page links for entrances where revised grading approval is not needed. Its requirements sheet lists the legal survey and site plan, a plan view with entrance, stair, drain, handrail and guard locations, a section with footing, foundation, stair, door, lintel and guard details, underpinning where frost cover falls below 4 feet, a basement and drain plan, and a $326.21 fee. Schedule 1, the applicable law checklist, sample drawings and the Schedule B owner declaration follow.
