Development Permit Exemptions List

About this public listing

This list above does not represent all exempted projects granted by the Development Officer as some property owners choose not to apply officially in writing with the department.  The department is providing this official exemption as an option if property owners so choose.

As all exemptions are stamped and signed by the Development Officer, some property owners have found it helpful to apply for the exemption so that the document can be provided to:

  • a future owner as proof that a development permit was not required at the time the project was started,
  • your hired contractor,
  • The Inspections Group Inc. when you apply for any other safety codes permit, or
  • The Town of St. Paul reception when you apply for a business licence.
