The City of Richmond Hill's checklist for a residential deck permit, a flat fee covering a deck attached to the house, more than 600 mm above grade, or larger than 10 square metres. Its general information section names brick veneer as excluded as a deck attachment point, and lists plastic guards as needing CCMC approval to qualify. Drawings cover material type, height above grade, joist and beam sizing, foundation depth of at least 1,200 mm, and guard and stair connection details.
