City staff will continue to work both remotely and in their offices during regular business hours to provide service to our residents, including building inspection, land use planning, bylaw, tax and utility payments and other services. Staff will respond to public inquiries and requests by both phone and email.
Of note: Building Inspection obligations are unchanged and remain a mandatory requirement.
You may contact the following persons to arrange for your inspection:
Leslie Pelton |
Elli Keats Engineering Clerk - Assistant Approving Clerk Phone: 250.489.0207 eMail: [email protected] |
Rob Dunker Building Official - Planning Technician Phone:250.489.0229 eMail: [email protected] |
In the event that a job site has been exposed to COVID-19 then, I‘m confident that we will be able to lean on technology to allow video’s, face-time, skype, pictures, etc. to be an additional inspection tool to assist us through this unprecedented event. Nonetheless, you must still contact our office to arrange for the inspections noted on your building permit and we will discuss our procedures at that time so, please do not proceed without receiving approval to do so by the Building Inspector.
There is now an emphasis on digital submission of plans, drawings, permits, documentation, inspection requests, etc. but we don’t expect that there will be concerns in this transition as we have all predominately shifted towards this capacity in the recent past. We will continue to receive mail and courier deliveries. You may also use our drop box at City Hall (40-10TH AVE S) located near the front entry. Special deliveries can be made upon calling our office to make the necessary arrangements.
Our local contractors have established a very high standard in our region and we have a tremendous level of confidence in their abilities especially during this difficult time so, we have no reason to expect any less in the days ahead.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. Please do not hesitate to contact our office if you have any questions, comments or concerns.
