The Town of Petawawa encourages all potential purchasers or leasees of property to consult with municipal staff prior to signing lease agreements, sale purchases, or entering into build agreements. Staff are able to provide valuable guidance and assistance along with relevant information that will ease and facilitate your development or enterprise integration into the space.

It is important to note that the following permits may be required to gain occupancy for your business in Petawawa.

• All businesses need to complete a Business Registration.
• Taking over the tenancy of a rental space may require a Change of Use permit.  Change in occupancy type may result in an increase of identified hazards for a property which could require added fire separation measures.
• Any alterations to the building or the unit space may also require a Building permit. 
• Changing signage (including the lens, as new owner/occupant) or adding signs requires a Sign permit.

We look forward to working with you!
