Building Bulletins

The following bulletins have been created to help you understand Penticton's Building Bylaw, the British Columbia Building Code and other related bylaws (such as Zoning, Business Licence, Fees and Charges, etc.).

2024 BC Building and Plumbing Codes

There is a new edition of the BC Building Code (BCBC) and Plumbing Code (BCPC).

The 2024 BC Building and Plumbing Codes will be in effect as of Friday March 8, 2024 and will bring a
number of changes for new building construction and building alteration permits.

Online Permits and Additional Resources

The City has launched online building permits via CloudPermit. 

In favour of reducing paper requirements, all forms, attachments and drawings can be completed in CloudPermit without submitting paper.  Owners, and agents will need to register for accounts to submit the application.  Some additional professionals or trades are needed as well. 

For detailed information on how to submit, see our Guide and Online Permits page.
