By-law Enforcement

Our by-law enforcement team is responsible for the investigation and enforcement of some of our municipal by-laws. Other by-laws are enforced by police or other government departments.

The Chief Building Officials (also called Building Inspectors) serve a dual purpose as By-law Enforcement Officers.

By-law enforcement officers have responsibilities in the following five areas:

• Providing public education
• Conducting inspections
• Responding to complaints
• Issuing warnings
• Applying penalties, when necessary

If you have questions or concerns related to by-laws or other enforcement issues, contact the Building Department at 519-776-7336 ext 1409.
