# Noise Exemption Permit
If your event includes amplified sound, music, or other loud activities, you may need a noise exemption permit under the Town's Noise By-law.
## When a permit is required
You need a noise exemption permit if your event includes:
* Amplified sound or music
* Activities that may exceed the standard noise limits in the Noise By-law
## Before you apply
Apply at least 30 days before your event. This gives staff time to review your request and confirm if an exemption can be granted.
When you apply, be prepared to explain:
* The type of event you're hosting
* The noise you expect (for example, music, speakers, machinery)
* Why your event can't meet the current by-law requirements
## How to apply
### Fill out the application form with your event information
The form will ask for:
* Your name and contact information
* The event location and address
* The date and time of the event
* The source of the noise (e.g., speakers, music, equipment)
* The reason you are requesting an exemption
You need to pay a non-refundable application fee of $313.78. Town staff will contact you about the fee payment, after you have submitted your application.
