Landscaping, decks & fences in Georgina, Ontario
Georgina needs a building permit to finish a basement or turn a basement room into a bedroom, for any deck attached to the house or a detached deck more than 0.6 m (2 ft) above grade, and for a detached shed over 15 m² (161 sq ft). A boundary fence that does not enclose a pool, re-shingling with no structural work, and replacing plumbing fixtures without altering the plumbing need none; new plumbing and heating or air-conditioning work do. York Region’s Forest Conservation Bylaw applies in Georgina: trees in a treed area larger than 0.2 ha (0.5 acre) cannot be removed or injured without a permit first. York Region Forestry (1-877-464-9675) confirms which permit applies to a property.
