In the case of all closed permits, the City retains the authority to engage with the current property owner regarding issues of non-compliance with building and electrical codes, and other building or zoning by-law requirements. However, in terms of the requirements associated with the permit process itself, the City considers these requirements to have been met at the time of the closure. That is, while the City could engage with subsequent enforcement action in a situation where a clear building code violation continues to exist, the City would not engage in enforcement action for 'work without a permit', for example, when that work was clearly performed under the permissions of a permit that was subsequently closed.
