Permits
Permits and suites in Chestermere
A basement development in Chestermere needs a building permit from the City, plus separate permits for electrical, plumbing and gas work. Your builder applies for these and books the inspections.
Secondary suites are a discretionary use in Chestermere, so approval isn’t automatic, and the City has been updating its suite rules. If you want a suite, ask the builder to check your address before you plan around rental income.
