Why is it Important to Appeal AHJ's Refusal Notice?


If your building permit application is refused, the AHJ shall provide you a formal refusal notice in writing so that you can appeal it to the province if you don't agree with the AHJ.


The refusal doesn't mean the AHJ is right. It actually gives you an opportunity to get an interpretation on specific code issues from the province if you appeal it. The interpretation will apply in the province for all similar projects in the future.


The appeal system is independent, open, transparent, fair, and conforms to the principles of administrative law and natural justice.
