Digital service

The city of Ikaalinen has an electronic Lupapiste service in use.

• You can apply for:
  • Building permit
  • Demolition permit
  • Landscape work permit
  • Deviation permit
  • Separate siting permit

You can submit a request for advice to the Lupapiste service when you want to contact the authorities before submitting the actual application. The request for advice is directed to the correct authority at Lupapiste, making it easier to process the matter. As the project progresses, the request for advice can also be converted directly into a permit application at Lupapiste, which also speeds up the permit processing.

The service brings together the municipal authority, the builder, the designer and other construction professionals at one address, and thus all parties to the project remain informed about the progress of the project. Permit processing is smoother when the necessary information is electronically in one place and paper applications and documents do not have to be submitted separately to different actors.

If necessary, you can also get more detailed advice on using Lupapiste from the Building Inspectorate by phone or email. Please note that the Lupapiste service partly contains professional vocabulary and is designed primarily for use by professionals in the field. It is therefore advisable to agree on how to apply to Lupapiste, e.g. with the project's lead designer, before submitting the application.

Instructions regarding the use of the Lupapiste service

Using Lupapiste in short:

1. Register for the service the first time you use it and then log in with your email address and password.
2. Create an application or survey: Select the location and main action of your project. You can then either create a survey related to the project or create an application based on your previous selections. The main action can be changed at a later stage.
3. Invite the necessary parties to the project from the “Parties” (Osapuolet) tab. Once the people have accepted the project invitation, their information can be selected for the application, saving you unnecessary typing. Please note that if your project requires a lead designer, he or she will be mainly responsible for promoting the project and communicating with the authorities at Lupapiste.
4. Save the project-related information and documents together with other parties. All the information you enter is automatically saved to the application and you can continue to complete it at a time that suits you.
5. Submit the application to the authority from the “Submitting an application” (Hakemuksen jättäminen) tab. NOTE: the application will only be visible to the authority after the application has been submitted.
6. If necessary, ask the authority for advice through the project-specific "Discussion" (Keskustelu) window.
