Sign Corridor
The Town of Canora operates two highway sign corridors on the outskirts of town. There is a south sign corridor located on the south end of Highway #9 and a west sign corridor located at the west end of Highway #5. Only Canora based businesses are permitted to rent on either corridor. Our south sign corridor is currently full. There are a few available spots on the west corridor. If you would like to be placed on our waiting list when a spot becomes available or would like to rent a spot contact the Community Development Officer.
Sign Corridor Special Conditions
- The rental charge of $50.00 per sign per year will be paid to the Town of Canora no later than December 31 of each year or the sign will be removed. Rent is used to pay the owners of the land for grass up-keep and administration of the sign corridor.
- The yearly rental fee for the sign corridor space is not pro-rated. This contract is valid from January 1 of each year for one full year.
- Once the contract has been signed the “sign owner” has 60 days to install a sign (if there is not already one in place). If not completed within the 60 days the “Sign Owner” will forfeit their rental charge and their sign corridor spot. We understand in the winter months that the ground may not be suitable to install posts – in this case the Town of Canora would use their discretion as to a suitable install date.
- Each sign must be uniform in size and contents must be approved by the Town of Canora.
- Each sign must be 4×8=32 square feet and displayed lengthwise. All signs must also be mounted on wooden posts 4x4x12 feet. With a minimum of 4 feet placed into the ground.
- Signs are owned by the businesses and are fully responsible for up-keep, repair, and improvements of the signs.
- If maintenance is not kept up to standards suitable to the Town of Canora, then sign will be removed at sign owner’s expense. Improvements have to be completed within thirty (30) days of written notification of needed improvements.
- The Town of Canora has final say when improvements are needed.
- In the event of vandalism or natural catastrophes the Town of Canora will not be responsible or liable for any damages incurred.
