A BIG PART OF THE SIGNAGE PROCESS IS GETTING THE PAPERWORK IN ORDER.
Whether you want permanent building signage, pylons, or temporary promotional signs around the city, there are many guidelines outlining what you legally can and can’t do. Here are some things you should keep in mind when planning for your new sign.
- The City of Edmonton has a no tolerance enforcement program in effect. Placing a sign illegally on City of Edmonton property is a bylaw offence with a fine of $250.
- It is possible to apply and receive permits that allow you to place appropriate signage in places that bylaws typically won’t allow.

- All signage permits require a require a site survey, as of spring 2017.
