At this time, access codes are provided to customers by staff for permits and development applications.
Access codes will also be on reminder notices for Property Taxes, Utilities and Business Licences.
The system will list other folders and accounts that are related to the property associated to the account or folder you’re registering. This is to make the registration process easier as you will not need to search for other accounts that you might wish to register at the same time.
If you select the related account and have the access code for that account or folder you will be able to register it to your account as well.
Information prior to 2021 is not viewable as it exists in our legacy systems, which do not offer online services.
The long-term plan is to include eApply and eInspection services for development related permits.
