IT’S BUILDING SAFETY MONTH

During the February 27, 2023 Council meeting, Council declared the month of May “Building Safety Month”.

Each week during the month of May we will be sharing posts about the importance of building safely and the role that our Chief Building Official (CBO) plays in that.

Talk to our CBO to get a building permit or if you have questions about your next building/demo/reno project. Contact Karen Morrell at kmorrell@augusta.ca or call 613-925-4231 ext. 106.
