Building Department Changes - District of Lake Country

Please note, we are currently administering a high volume of development and building applications which is impacting our processing times. Thanks for your patience as we address building inspections and development applications in the order they are received. To help us respond as effectively as possible, please ensure any correspondence contains a reference to the relevant development application file number, the civic address, legal description or roll number of the property and any specific questions.
