Once your revision has been processed, you will be contacted to pay the revision fee.  Note that inspections will be suspended until the revision has been completed and the fee paid.

Important!  Only persons who have been authorized to do so (the owner or an appointed agent) can make application for a revision.

If your revision is for a commercial Part 3 or complex Part 9 building, please refer to the Building Permit Update Policy.
