Development Permit Inspections

A development permit inspection confirms that new construction is completed in accordance with an approved development permit and applicable zoning bylaw regulations.

About Development Permit Inspections

Development permit inspections are conducted in redeveloping neighbourhoods for residential infill. Inspections may also occur for commercial, industrial, community, and basic services uses. Applicable inspection fees are paid at the development permit application stage.

Booking an Inspection

Development permit inspections are automatically scheduled based on inspector availability. A development permit inspection may occur at any time after a footing and foundation is laid. Inspections can also be requested by emailing developmentpermitinspections@edmonton.ca

While property owners and their designates are welcome to be present during an inspection, attending the inspection is not necessary. Inspections typically do not require access to the interior of a building.

Have your Development Permit Notification sign properly posted within 2m of a property line

Before making any changes to the design or other aspects of the development, ensure a permit revision application is submitted and approved
