Farewell to 2022!
It has been a pleasure assisting our community to build safe throughout 2022. Our team has worked with you; our applicants, homeowners, developers, designers, engineers, architects and so many other professionals to be able to issue over 2,300 permits this year supporting $1.8 billion of construction activity in Oakville.
We're thankful for the conversations and learning that we have shared this year. Your feedback and collaboration to improve the services we deliver is a big part of our success. We've drastically improved our pre-screen time to take in your permit applications. We've made strides in improving our communication and simplifying steps to make it easier for you. We've adjusted our structure to work as a team to better manage your permit from start to final inspections. We have quite a lengthy list of improvements planned so you can expect to see more progress as we welcome in the new year.
2023 promises to be a year of more changes as we look to adapt to the new legislation of Bill 23 and Bill 109. The town is currently working through the legislation to understand the impacts and make the necessary adjustments to deliver effective services to our community. Please watch for more information to come in the new year.
We wish everyone a safe and healthy holiday season.
