Old Tafo Municipal Assembly is the only authority that issues permits for billboards, signboards and all other outdoor advertising in the municipality.
You need a permit before you put up any advert that can be seen from a public road or space, whether it is on your own premises, on private property or on public land.
Adverts put up without a permit can be removed by the Assembly, and the owner may be charged for the removal and face penalties.
Get the outdoor advertising application form from the Assembly.
Return the form with a design of the advert, its size and its exact location, together with the documents listed below.
Officers inspect the proposed location to check safety, visibility for road users and planning rules.
If approved, pay the fee for your advert type, size and location, and keep your official receipt.
Put up the advert only after you receive your permit, exactly as approved, and display the permit number where required.
Large structures need extra safety checks. Speak to the Assembly before you commission a billboard so the location and design can be approved without delays.
