Signs
The Town of Halton Hills' Sign By-law controls any sign located outside a building wall, whether on private property or Town road allowance.
A Building Permit is required for a Permanent Sign.
A Portable Sign Permit is required for a temporary sign.
Section 6 of the Sign By-law describes signs not requiring a permit.
Portable Sign Permit Application Forms:
- Application for 30 day Opening of a New Business Portable Sign Permit (on private property)
- Application for 60 day Portable Sign Permit (on private property)
- Property Owner Consent to Display a Sign (required for 30-day & 60- day permits where the applicant is not the Property Owner)
- Application for 12-Month Portable Sign Permit (on Town road allowances)
- Certificate of Insurance (must accompany 12-month permit application & be completed by the insurer)
A variance process is available where the sign cannot be erected in compliance with the by-law. The process takes approximately 3 months.
