The City's zoning by-law governs how a building or parcel of land within the City of Brampton can be used. There may be limitations to t​he use of space, building location, parking requirements etc. Ensure that your proposed use is permitted and that your proposed construction can be accommodated.

Approvals from other departments or agencies may be required before the Building Division can accept an application for or issue a building permit.

In the province of Ontario, construction and change of use is regulated by the Ontario Building Code. The Building Code requires that the person or persons who prepare designs and documents for submission of an application for a building permit have certain qualifications. The Ministry of Municipal Affairs also keeps a record of qualified individuals. To search the qualifications of your designer, please use the Ministry website.
