Applying for a Newmarket sign permit is mandatory for any ground sign, fascia sign, projecting sign, or billboard installed on Town property. To obtain a sign permit in Newmarket, applicants must submit a complete permit package—including engineered drawings, a scaled site plan, NT Power clearance, and all required documents—directly to signs@newmarket.ca. The Town requires all drawings to be P.Eng-stamped and fully compliant with the Newmarket Sign By-law. MTO approval is also needed for any sign within 400 m of Highway 404. A Newmarket sign permit will not be issued unless the application form, fees, and technical documents are fully complete.

When your proposed sign doesn’t fully comply with the City of Toronto Sign By-law (Chapter 694), a Sign Variance is required. Rouge Hill Consulting specializes in securing variance approvals for both first-party and third-party signs by managing the entire process — from Preliminary Project Review (PPR) and deficiency analysis to preparing a strong Rationale Letter and coordinating with the Sign Variance Committee. Our team of BCIN- and P.Eng.-qualified experts ensures your non-compliant signage is justified, defensible, and professionally represented for approval.
