Starting new construction now easier in West Grey

West Grey is making it easier for residents to apply for and track their building permits with a new online system.

The move is part of an ongoing strategy to streamline processes, increase accessibility and provide better customer service.

Mayor Christine Robinson said the system will make building in West Grey easier and more convenient.

Residents and builders can now create an online account through westgrey.com for their building permit applications.

The system also allows for inspection requests and sends notifications to keep a clear line of communication.
