Case Study: Municipality of Grey Highlands issues a barn rebuild permit in record time with Cloudpermit

Municipality of Grey Highlands issues a barn permit in 4 days with Cloudpermit

The Municipality of Grey Highlands, a rural Ontario municipality, faced challenges in serving its large geographic area where residents had to make long trips to its offices to submit permit applications. This process was especially difficult for residents who did not drive. The municipality partnered with Cloudpermit, an e-permitting software, to modernize and digitize its permitting process.

By implementing Cloudpermit's online system, the municipality enabled residents to submit applications and supporting documents digitally. This solution allowed a barn building permit to be issued in record time after a fire, with the process completed in just two business days. The software eliminated the need for multiple in-person trips, prevented lost documents, and provided exceptional tracking for applicants. Cloudpermit's implementation was seamless, with no downtime, and its use has since expanded to other municipal departments, saving time for all parties involved.
