If you're hosting an event or doing construction work in a residential area or at a certain time, you may need a noise exemption permit. For example, you need a noise exemption permit for any activity on your property that exceeds the noise limits and prohibited times outlined in the Town of Innisfil's Noise By-law. 

Fireworks need a fireworks permit from Innisfil Fire & Rescue Services.

Please complete the Noise Exemption Permit Application and submit it by email to atangney@innisfil.ca. Apply at least two weeks before your event date so we can review and process your request.

Fees

If you are a resident in Innisfil and are applying to work on, or hold an event at your own residence, there is no permit fee. Otherwise, it will cost $410.90 to get a noise exemption permit. 

When do I need a noise exemption permit?

Please review the Noise By-law to find out the permitted noise levels and times of day for all properties in Innisfil. Some activities may include:

• Parties and backyard weddings
• Commercial events taking place outside regular business hours
• Construction activities outside permitted hours

Commercial events

Events with live music in commercial areas need Council's approval. Submit your application at least 4 to 6 weeks in advance so that Council can review your request.

Construction noise

You will need a noise exemption permit if you're doing commercial construction in a residential area on Saturdays between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Your permit is valid for the current calendar year.
