Bylaws & Policies

The Town of Yellow Grass requires you to have a building permit and council approval before starting a building project.

To comply with government regulations, we must appoint building inspectors for all builds, renovations, moving anything into town, etc.

  • We have contracted Professional Building Inspectors, Inc. from White City, SK
  • Call them at 306-536-1799 if you have any questions about what you need for your project

A Business License for the Town of Yellow Grass is $100 a year.

Businesses from out of town doing work within Yellow Grass must also have a business license.
