When COVID-19 impacted the in-person Permit/Subdivision application process, a skilled group of employees from Planning & Development and ICT quickly addressed this gap by collaborating on an electronic solution to meet the needs of residents and industry stakeholders.
Within nine days, the interim solution was up and running, which includes:
Throughout the process, staff regularly met with industry stakeholders to provide project updates and collaboratively work through roadblocks – something they continue to do weekly.

Planning & Development is excited and committed to continually improving customers’ digital interactions with a focus on service excellence.
