Requesting a Permit

To book a facility or park, a written request must be submitted using the rental request form or by emailing the Permitting Clerk at bookings@orillia.ca. This written request must include your full name, address with postal code, a day-time and evening telephone number, and the date, times and facility/park being requested. Once your request has been received, if available, a permit will be created in our booking system. You will be contacted by the Department when your permit is ready to be signed. If you would like, the permit can be emailed, faxed, mailed or left for pick up (depending on the timeline of your booking). Payment will be due immediately at the time of the signing of the permit. This will be discussed with you after your request has been received.
