Filming Policy adopted

Type(s)
Village Update

On June 22, Council adopted a new Filming Policy – Policy-2022-09-Filming-Policy.

This policy attempts to find a balance between production filming and the Village in order to minimize disruptions to residents and businesses. Any person or company who wishes to engage in production photography, video, film or television recording within the Village of Lytton must obtain a Filming Permit from the Village. News media are exempt from this requirement.

While the community focuses on clean-up and rebuilding, it is recognized that the community provides a unique landscape for educational, documentary and fundraising purposes. It is important therefore that any filming in the Village does not interfere with the recovery efforts until they are complete. During the Recovery/Rebuild period, those seeking to film for commercial purposes will require the approval of Council.

All Filming proponents shall complete a Municipal Filming Permit Application Form.

Applications shall be submitted to the Filming Liaison no later than three (3) weeks prior to the proposed commencement of filming.
