Apply for a Building Permit

Building Permit Process

The Town of Kingsville uses a cloud-based e-permitting software called Cloudpermit. This system digitalizes the building permit process and will eventually help us go completely paperless. With Cloudpermit, you can:

Apply for all types of building permits online
Pay for a building permit using a credit card - convenience charge applies (coming soon)
Check the status of an application (change of application status or additional information requests will be automatically be emailed to the applicant)
Schedule or cancel inspections
Check inspection results
Submit and request changes to an existing permit

Register your Cloudpermit account

To begin, you will need to create a Cloudpermit account. Cloudpermit currently supports Firefox, Google, and Safari browsers. Once registered, you can apply for permits and track their progress.

How-to videos and support materials

Learn how to log in to Cloudpermit as a registered user, or check Cloudpermit Support for a quick tutorial on the basics. These instructional videos may also help you navigate the system:
