| Subject: | For Your Information: Update regarding City of Calgary Permit System |
Please find the following bulletin BILD Calgary Region received from The City of Calgary.
Last week, we let you know about technical issues with the Vista/ePermit system. We understand that this can be causing delays for you and your business, so we are providing some additional information on how you can access services while we work to resolve things.
For Single Construction Permits (SCPs):
Make an appointment and apply in person on the 3rd floor of the Municipal Building.
Review what you need for your application, call 403 268 5343 and staff will create a OneDrive link that they will email to you.
For Residential Improvement Permits (RIPs), please apply online at apply.calgary.ca using a MYID account. If you do not have an account, you can create one. We are actively testing resolutions to this issue; however, we do not have an estimated time for the system to be completely back online.
We understand this unexpected outage is an inconvenience, and we are actively working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding at this time and will continue to provide you with updates as they become available.
