Sign Permits

The Building Division is responsible for processing and issuing sign permits regulating permanent and portable signs and other advertising devices. All signs must comply with the City of Owen Sound Sign By-law. A sign that does not comply with the by-law will require a minor variance.

Please apply for a sign permit using Cloudpermit.  

Please contact the Planning Division for further information.

Cloudpermit is now live!
