Temporary Use Permit (TUP)
Temporary Use Permits (TUPs) can authorize a particular use to occur, temporarily, in a zone where it is not usually permitted. The permit is issued for a specified period of time not exceeding three (3) years, which may be renewed once only for a further period not exceeding 3 years, and establishes the conditions under which the temporary use may be carried on. Temporary Use Permits are not intended to be a substitute for a rezoning application.
TUP applications require the submission of an application fee, completed application form and supporting documentation (i.e. site plans, floor plans, nature of proposed use) with adjacent property owners/occupants notified of the application prior to a decision by the Regional District Board.
The Board may defer making a decision on a TUP and require the convening of a Public Information Meeting (PIM) and/or consideration by the local Advisory Planning Commission (APC) before rendering a decision.
The application fees for a Temporary Use Permit (TUP) are as follows:
- $1,250.00; and
- $1,250.00 for the renewal of a TUP.
To complete an application, please fill out the Temporary Use Permit Application Form.
