As per the Ontario Building Code and Building Code Act, the approved stamped permit documents are required to be onsite at all times. If the Township approved permit documents are not available at time of inspection, the site will be deemed not ready and the inspection will not be conducted. A new inspection will then need to be requested by the permit holder for an alternate date.
