Overview

The City of Richmond Hill Building Division's one-page Applicant / Homeowner Declaration for building permit applications that use pre-approved reference model plans, linked from the City's Additional Residential Unit page. The applicant acknowledges four points: use of pre-approved plans exactly as issued, that changes or alterations void their pre-approved status and lead to a revision review, design responsibility for altered plans under O. Reg. 163/24, and applicant responsibility. An office-use box records the Reference Model File Number and Building Permit File Number.
