Overview

The City of Brampton Building Division's custom built home package from the building permits A-Z index. Its lead sheet walks through zoning, site plan control, heritage and conservation authority pre-application approvals, then the grading and drainage plan, architectural control, private sewage system, and the documents and fee in a complete submission. Bound in behind it are the 2017 HVAC requirements, standard grading notes, Tarion's owner-builder booklet and letter of confirmation application, Schedules 1 and 2, the applicable law checklist and the septic statement of design.
