Bylaws
Bylaws are local legislation enforceable by the Council staff and other nominated agencies.
In 2008 most of Council’s Bylaws were reviewed and combined into one document to form a Consolidated Bylaw. Since then, several of these bylaws have been reviewed and standalone bylaws created.
The Consolidated Bylaw is broken up into the following sections:
- Introductory Bylaw 2020 (pdf, 109.49kb)
