City or Town
Building Departments
British Columbia


Local building departments is a common term used throughout the construction industry, even though a particular city or town may not have a division actually called ‘building department’.

It could be called the Planning Department, the Development Department, The Town Hall, etc.

Local refers to the city, town or municipality that governs the local area. That particular city, town or municipality reviews the plans and drawings for work, which takes place in its district.
Once the plans/ drawings are approved, the building department issues the building permits, electrical permits, sign permits, etc., which are required to begin construction.

The following cities and towns in the province of British Columbia are listed alphabetically.
