In addition to a building permit, other types of permits may be required for a development project in a rural area. These additional permitting requirements are established by various zoning bylaws and official community plans for each area within the Cariboo Regional District. 

Your development application will be processed in accordance with the Development Procedures, Guidelines & Fees Bylaw, which includes a detailed fee and refund schedule. This bylaw may be accessed through the Bylaw Directory page.

We recommend that you discuss your proposed development with planning department staff before starting your application. This will allow for any application requirements to be identified well in advance of submission, saving you time and money on moving your proposal forward. You can also access our property information system to find out more information about applicable zoning, land use designation and property information.
