A BC Land Survey is required for all new construction over 10 square meters (107 square feet) and must be submitted prior to a Framing inspection.
The Building Official may waive the requirements for a proposed site survey at permit application, where the permit is for the repair or alteration of an existing building, or the buildings shown on the proposed site plan are at least 1.5 m (5 ft) away from all required setbacks. Decisions made by the Building Official with regards to waiving this requirement are final.
