Signage - Do you have your permit?
May 14, 2010
This is a reminder that the City of Fredericton's Development Services Department will drafting proposed changes to the signage section of the City's Zoning By-law Z-2 over the next few weeks and will have a draft available for public review sometime during the late spring or early summer. Public meetings will held to review the proposed changes.
As part of this work, the Development Services Department of the City of Fredericton is reviewing property files to ensure sign permits have been obtained for existing signage. In doing this review, it has come to their attention that sign permits have not been obtained for existing signage on a number of properties in Fredericton. The City of Fredericton has asked BFN to encourage our members to review their files and confirm that sign permits have been obtained for the current signage on their property.
With potential changes to the existing sign by-law it would be advisable to ensure that all businesses and property owners have confirmed they have a permit for their signs. The City will be beginning enforcement of the signage by-law in the coming months so please take the time to ensure you have the proper permits.
Should you have any questions regarding this please contact the City of Fredericton's Development Services Department at 506-460-2100.
