Building Department & By-Law Info
The Municipality of North Perth Building Department has recently purchased an e-permitting software “Cloud Permit” in an effort to streamline the building permit process and to further reduce our carbon footprint.
About Cloudpermit: Cloudpermit is the world’s leading e-permitting software for municipal building departments. It is cloud-based and end-to-end which enables municipal building departments, building communities, and applicants to complete the building permit lifecycle in one digital workspace. The software was created for, and with, North American municipal building departments to help municipalities thrive.
