Municipality of Minitonas-Bowsman

Before undertaking a new building project, there are several steps required before you begin.

 

 

*** If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Municipal Office at 204-525-4461 *** 

 

1. Before you can even fill out a Municipality of Minitonas-Bowsman Building Permit, you will first need to complete a Swan Valley Planning District Development Application.

2. Once you have completed the form, you'll need to send it in along with a cheque for $75.00 to:

 

Box 1222

Swan River, MB R0L 1Z0

 

- Please make sure to include any relevant drawings or plans.

 

3. Your Development Application will be looked over by the Development Officer, Ron Lewicki. Once he has looked over your application, he will fax the signed copy back to us at the office.

4. Once we have received the Development Application back, you will then need to fill out a Building Permit. This will have to be done in the office.

 

5. When the Building Permit is completed, we contact our Building Inspector, Dale Rose and he will look over the permit and drawings and assign a price to the permit. Once it has been approved and payment has been made, you can begin your project. If there are any issues, you'll be notified along the way.
