Local Permit Request
Admin
Take a local permit intake with the activity, the place, and the dates — a clerk still issues the permit.
A voicemail that says “I need a permit for Saturday” never names the sidewalk or the hours. This template collects the activity, the place, and the dates so a clerk can start a file. It does not issue a permit.
Who it is for
Town clerks, parks desks, and small city counters that still review permits by hand.
When to use it
Use it for low-stakes local permits. Facility Reservation is a room you already own. Street Issue Report is a pothole, not permission. Resident Feedback is an opinion, not an application.
What this form collects
Applicant identity, activity, location, dates, whether public property is involved, an optional sketch, and notes.
- Yard-sale or dumpster intake
- Park picnic that needs a dated reservation plus a permit note
- Sidewalk-use request for a one-day table

Frequently asked questions
Does submitting this grant the permit?
No. A person still reviews it and may ask for more. Say that on the success screen so no one shows up with a confirmation email as a permit.
Can I collect a fee here?
GRTforms has no payment field. Point people at the cashier or the processor you already use after the clerk accepts the request.
What if the activity is not on the list?
The activity field is free text. Add a dropdown after you clone it if your office only handles five named permit types.
