Case Study: Township of Huron-Kinloss achieves uninterrupted, streamlined permit processing during COVID-19 with Cloudpermit

Huron-Kinloss uses Cloudpermit to keep up with non-stop stream of building permits during COVID-19

The Township of Huron-Kinloss, an Ontario municipality experiencing new planned development and a surge in DIY home projects during the COVID-19 pandemic, needed a way to manage an increased volume of building permit applications. The township selected Cloudpermit’s cloud-based e-permitting software for its user-friendly interface, file management capabilities, and ongoing product improvements to modernize permit workflows.

Cloudpermit’s end-to-end digital permitting platform streamlined the township’s permit process, allowing staff to handle a higher volume of applications, better communicate priorities to developers, and present Huron-Kinloss as a mature, build-ready municipality. By using Cloudpermit, the township sustained a non-stop stream of permit activity during COVID-19 and improved service delivery to applicants and stakeholders.
