BUILDING DEPARTMENT
The Perth East Building Department:
• Reviews applications for Building permits,
• Issues building, demolition, sewage, and change of use permits,
• Provides inspections during construction
It is the responsibility of the property owner to ensure there is a building permit
for any project they are undertaking. Contractors often apply and obtain permits
as part of their contract with property owners.
WHAT IS A BUILDING PERMIT?
A building permit is your documented permission to begin construction,
demolition or another project as specified in the Ontario Building Code. Building
permits are necessary to ensure that you or your contractor are following zoning,
safety and structural standards.
WHEN IS A PERMIT REQUIRED?
Permits are typically required for:
• the construction, renovation or demolition of a building,
• to change the use of a building,
• the installation, alteration, extension, or repair of on-site sewage systems
A permit is not required for a building occupying an area less than 10 square
meters (107 square feet). Buildings under 10 square meters still require a permit if
the building contains plumbing or is attached to another structure. All buildings
regardless of size must comply with the applicable setbacks according to the
zoning in which the structure is located, in accordance with the Township Zoning
by-law. At least one inspection will be required during the permit process.
HOW DO I BOOK AN INSPECTION?
All inspections are booked through the Building Department. There are three
(3) ways to book an inspection. You can phone 519-595-2800 ext. 241 to speak
with the Building Assistant or make a request online at https://ca.cloudpermit.
com/login or www.pertheast.ca/inspection. The Building Department requires a
minimum of 24 hours’ notice to complete inspections.
BY-LAW ENFORCEMENT
The Township of Perth East By-law Enforcement Department is responsible for
the investigation and enforcement of the Municipal By-laws. Our main goal is to
promote community safety and wellbeing through both education and awareness.
If you have a complaint or concern, you may contact the Municipal Law
Enforcement/Property Standards Officer at (519) 595-2800 ext 231, or you may
file an online complaint at www.pertheast.ca/bylawcomplaint
Concerns and inquiries are to be directed to:
Jan Weeden, Municipal Law Enforcement Officer and Property Standards Officer

BUILDING DEPARTMENT
RADON GAS: IS IT IN YOUR HOME?
Radon gas is a radioactive gas that occurs naturally when uranium in soil and
rock breaks down: it is invisible, odourless and tasteless. When radon is released
from the ground into the outdoor air, it is diluted and is not a concern. However,
in enclosed spaces, it can sometimes accumulate to high levels, which can pose
a health risk to you and your family. The only way to know if your home has high
radon levels is to test for it.
As part of the Township’s Radon Gas Mitigation Program, a builder must put in
place one of three radon gas mitigation options when constructing a new low-rise
residential dwelling in Perth East:
• Option #1: a rough-in soil gas pipe and mandatory radon gas testing
• Option #2: a soil gas barrier on the foundation walls and basement floor slab,
with voluntary radon gas testing
• Option #3: a soil gas barrier on the foundation walls, and an active sub-slab
depressurization system, with voluntary radon gas testing
DOG KENNEL APPLICATIONS / INQUIRIES
Kennels within the Township of Perth East are regulated as per By-law 34-2015.
There are three different types of kennels that the Township regulates:
• Breeding Kennel: where purebred dogs are kept for breeding, housing, or selling.
• Boarding Kennel: any building, structure, run or facility, or part thereof, used for
the boarding (for hire), grooming, showing, training or temporarily housing of
more than (1) dog.
• Hunting/Sporting/Sled Dog Kennel: any building, structure, dog run or other
facility where dogs are kept solely for the purpose of routinely entering into dog
sled or other sporting event; or hunting dogs are kept for the hunting purpose.
Kennels are only permitted within Agricultural zones. All kennels within the
Township of Perth East must obtain a yearly Kennel License and are inspected by
the By-law enforcement officer on a yearly basis.
Applications or inquiries are to be directed to:

MDS I and II Calculations - The Minimum Distance Separation (MDS) Formulae
are land use planning tools that determine a recommended separation distance
between a livestock barn, manure storage or anaerobic digester and another land
use. The objective of MDS is to prevent land use conflicts and minimize nuisance
complaints related to odour.
• MDS I – provides the minimum distance between proposed new development and
any existing livestock barns, manure storages and/or anaerobic digesters in areas
where the keeping of livestock is permitted.
• MDS II - provides the minimum distance separation between proposed new,
enlarges, or remodelled livestock barns, manure storages and/or anaerobic
digester and existing or approved development located in areas where the
keeping of livestock is permitted.
The Township of Perth East reviews MDS calculations provided as part of a Building
permit application where applicable.

to reduce damage to the roads during spring thaw, from March 1 to April 30 each
year, the Township restricts vehicles to half loads (5 tonnes per axle) on all rural
Township roads unless otherwise posted. Please assist us in reducing repairs to
our road system by not having heavy deliveries to your property during this time
of year.

A CLEAN CHIMNEY IS A SAFER CHIMNEY
Simple steps to prevent a fire:
• Inspect & clean your chimney - especially important to do before heating
season. Clear any obstructions and make sure the damper is working properly.
Creosote and soot build-up should be cleared. Consult a WETT (Wood Energy
Technical Training) certified technician to be sure.
• Check woodstove pipes - make sure all joints are securely fastened.
• Burn dry, clean wood - to reduce build-up, burn only properly dried, seasoned
wood. Never place plastics, wet or green wood in the fire. Never burn gift
wrap in a fireplace or woodstove.
• Ash removal - ensure the ashes are cool before using a (metal, non-
combustible) container to remove them. Take them directly outside and store
in a non-combustible area well away from any structures.
OPEN-AIR BURNING
You MUST obtain an open-air burn permit in order to burn!
Leaving a message with this information does not give you permission to burn.
You must obtain approval directly with staff.
There are a few rules with regard to having a controlled burn:
• Stay with the controlled burn at all times and ensure the fire is fully
extinguished at dark.
• Burn only clean materials (wood, brush, etc.) - do not burn household garbage,
rubber or plastics.
• Your fire should not be a nuisance to neighbours in terms of smoke or noise, so
be mindful of wind strength & direction
• Consult the by-law for full rules and regulations
To obtain a burn permit, please call (519) 595-2800 during regular municipal
office hours. The Open-Air Controlled Burn By-law is available for you to view on
the Perth East website.
SMOKE ALARMS
Every home in Ontario must have a working smoke alarm on every storey and
outside all sleeping areas as per the Ontario Fire Code.
Homeowners - It is the responsibility of homeowners to install and maintain
smoke alarms on every storey of their home and outside sleeping areas. Smoke
alarms expire after 10 years and must be replaced.
Landlords - It is the responsibility of landlords to ensure their rental properties
comply with the law.
Tenants - If you are a tenant of a rental property and do not have the required
number of smoke alarms, contact your landlord immediately. It is against the law
for tenants to remove the batteries or tamper with the alarm in any way.
Home Escape Plans - Do you and your family know what to do and where to go
when the smoke alarm sounds? Create and practice a home escape plan. Have
two ways out of each room and choose a meeting place outside the home.
www.pertheast.ca | page 22PERTH EAST FIRE DEPARTMENT
Only working smoke alarms save lives.
WORKING CO ALARMS -
YOUR EVERYDAY HERO RIGHT IN YOUR HOME
Carbon monoxide is an odourless, invisible gas that can be fatal. Your only
protection from this “silent killer” is a working CO alarm.
CO alarms must be installed outside all sleeping areas. If you cannot hear the
alarm when it is sounding you will not get the necessary early detection when CO
is present. Experts are also recommending one alarm for every level of the home.
Already have a CO alarm? Take a few minutes to check the date of manufacture /
installation. Homes with CO alarms that are past their optimal life span may also
put occupants at risk. What is sometimes misunderstood by many homeowners,
is that CO alarms, like smoke alarms, do not last forever whether they are battery
powered or hardwired.
Some symptoms of CO poisoning:
• Headache, nausea, burning eyes, fainting, confusion, drowsiness.
• Often mistaken for common ailments like the flu
• Symptoms improve when away from the home for a period of time
• Symptoms experienced by more than one member of the household.
• Continued exposure to higher levels may result in unconscious, brain damage
and death.
• The elderly, children and people with heart or respiratory conditions may be
particularly vulnerable to carbon monoxide.

County’s first settler, Sebastian Fryfogel, in 1844, which also was used as a duplex,
cheese factory and restaurant. It is now owned by the Stratford Perth Heritage
Foundation. Around the tavern is a five-acre estate that has been developed as an
Arboretum consisting of the flora native to South Western Ontario.
