Planning and Development

If you're looking to start your own business, our staff are here to help you obtain the necessary inspection approvals, permits and licences.

As our community grows, municipal staff work hard to assist and facilitate development and construction, eliminating delays and red tape. We have a comprehensive list of development guidelines to walk you through our Council-approved community standards for development in Clarington.

While growth is inevitable, Clarington is also actively working to minimize our environmental footprint. Learn all about our green initiatives. We are committed to protecting the environment while preparing to adapt and adjust to the impacts of climate change on our services.
