Landscaping, decks & fences in Halton Hills, Ontario
In Halton Hills a deck serving a house needs a building permit only when it is both more than 600 mm (24 in) above grade and larger than 10 m² (108 ft²). A deck no more than 600 mm above grade doesn’t need one, whatever its size. Halton Hills has no private tree by-law yet — the Town’s Privately-Owned Tree Management Strategy recommends one be considered after more public consultation. Halton Region’s Tree By-law still covers woodlands over 0.5 hectares and the Regional Greenlands System.
