Temporary Special Exception Permit
The City of Novi Code of Ordinances requires a
Temporary Special Exception Permit for tent sidewalk, or
flower/plant sales that are accessory to a permitted principal use
of a property, and seasonal sales of produce (i.e., fruits and
vegetables), firewood, or Christmas trees and the temporary location
of a temporary or premanufactured building in connection with the
development of a property or construction of buildings thereon.
A packet of information is available in the Community Development
Department, which is very helpful in assisting an applicant with the
permit process. Included in the packet is the Temporary Special
Exception Permit application, sign criteria, and a copy of the
ordinance section pertaining to Temporary Special Exception Permits.
Applicants are required to submit the application and all
supplemental information (plot plan, drawn to scale) prior to the
event requiring a Temporary Special Exception Permit. Applicants
requesting the temporary use of a tent are required to submit NFPA
701 Flame Resistance Certification. Applicants hosting an event on
property owned by someone else are required to submit a letter of
approval from the property owner for the intended use requested.
All Applicants are required to provide a property sidwell number
that may be obtained from the Assessing Department (248) 347-0485.
Applications are reviewed by the Building Official and all
applicants should be available to answer any questions the Building
Official may have regarding the safety of residents affected by the
event as well as to confirm compliance with required city and state
code. Once the Temporary Special Exception Permit is approved the
applicant will receive a copy of the permit in the mail, which is to
be posted at all times during the approved use dates for the permit.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact Robin
A. Working in the Building Department by
email or
at 248-347-0580 or by fax at 248-735-5600.
