Building permit application process streamlined for flood victims

Gatineau, June 6, 2017. – Ville de Gatineau is streamlining the process so flood victims can obtain the permits they need for their construction work more quickly.

Quick facts

●	An information search tool is now available on the municipal Web site.

●	That tool can be accessed through gatineau.ca/crue.

●	The search engine locates buildings in: -the flood zone (0-20 years); -the flood zone (20-100 years); and -outside those zones.

●	It also provides information about: -the applicable by-laws; -permitted and prohibited work; and -required documents.

●	The permit application and other forms to be filled out are also available through the Web site.

●

Other mechanisms�have also been set in place to accelerate the process:
-a dedicated team of the Service de l'urbanisme et du d�veloppement durable�has been assigned to process the applications;
-building permits and certificates of authorization are free for the flood victims until September 1, 2018; and
-meetings of the Comit� consultatif d'urbanisme and the Municipal Council will be scheduled as required.

●	In order to avoid lineups, it is best not to go to a service centre to apply for a permit. The Web site and 311 remain the best options for the flood victims.

●	It is important to remember that Gatineau issues permits for construction work. For financial assistance with the work, call Qu�bec's minist�re de la S�curit� publique. For information, go to www.securitepublique.gouv.qc.ca/…
