The Village runs planning, building permits, business and dog licences, bylaw enforcement, roads and snow clearing, its own water system (it buys the water from Port Moody), parks, and garbage and organics collection (contracted to GFL Environmental). Recycle BC runs residential recycling, also collected by GFL. The Sasamat Volunteer Fire Department serves Anmore and Belcarra, and the Coquitlam RCMP serves Anmore. The Village says it has no involvement in septic or sewer system management. Many things people think of as \"Village\" matters, like marriage licences, health cards and driver's licences, are provincial.","city_hall":{"label":"Village Hall (Anmore Community Hub)","address":"2697 Sunnyside Road, Anmore, BC V3H 5G9","phone":"604-469-9877","hours":"Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (closed on statutory holidays)"},"useful_contacts":[{"label":"Bylaw Department (complaints; use the online complaint form)","value":"604-828-4987"},{"label":"Building inquiries","value":"building@anmore.com"},{"label":"Public Works yard office","value":"604-469-6622"},{"label":"Public Works emergencies after hours (water","public safety":null,"trees down":null,"unsafe dumping)":null,"value":"604-817-7745"},{"label":"Coquitlam RCMP (non-emergency)","value":"604-945-1550"},{"label":"Sasamat Volunteer Fire Department (non-emergency","message only)":null,"value":"604-469-0349"},{"label":"GFL Environmental (missed collection","recycling bins and bags)":null,"value":"604-529-4030"}],"bodies":{"municipal":{"name":"Village of Anmore","url":"https://anmore.com"},"regional":{"name":"Metro Vancouver Regional District","url":"https://metrovancouver.org"},"provincial":{"name":"Province of British Columbia","url":"https://www2.gov.bc.ca"},"federal":{"name":"Government of Canada","url":"https://www.canada.ca"}},"boundary":{"geojson":"/data/ca/bc/anmore/boundary.geojson","area_km2":32.18,"source":"Municipalities - Legally Defined Administrative Areas of BC, BC Data Catalogue","source_url":"https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/municipalities-legally-defined-administrative-areas-of-bc","accessed":"2026-11-08"},"zoning":{"zones":23,"zone_pages":15,"has_page":true,"bylaw":{"title":"Zoning Bylaw No. 568-2017 (consolidated; the consolidation lists amendments through Bylaw No. 745-2026)","url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Bylaw-568-2017-Zoning-Bylaw-CONSOLIDATED-2026-10-22-1.pdf","accessed":"2026-11-08","note":"Consolidated copy provided for convenience only.

Starting construction before you have a permit doubles the permit fee, so check first.\n\nA permit is needed before any construction or demolition, before moving a building, before installing mechanical equipment, and before excavating or placing or removing soil. Examples include a new dwelling or accessory building, an addition, altering or repairing a building, finishing a basement, demolition, a swimming pool, a change of use and a retaining wall over 1.22 m high. Separate trade permits cover plumbing, fire sprinklers, lawn irrigation and wood-burning appliances.\n\nA permit is not needed for minor work such as painting, roofing repair or replacement, cabinets, landscaping and fencing, or exterior repairs like siding, trim and stucco (unless structural, such as moving or enlarging windows or doors). A patio or deck less than 600 mm (2 feet) above grade, on its own foundations and not attached to a structure, is also exempt.\n\n## Steps\n\n1. Check that your plans fit your zone (see the zoning-lookup answer).\n2. Gather the documents listed above. The Village's checklist adds tree, driveway and business licence items and energy step code reports.\n3. Apply online through Cloudpermit and pay the application fee there before the review starts.\n4. After approval you receive an invoice for the permit fees.\n5.

Keep a fence to 1.6 m in a front yard and 1.8 m in a rear or side yard.\n2. If the fence sits on a retaining wall, count the wall's height too. If the combined height is over 1.8 m, the fence by itself may be no more than 1.0 m.\n3. Check your plans with the Village (building@anmore.com or 604-469-9877) if your lot is on a corner or you are not sure of a boundary.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- A retaining wall over 1.22 m high needs a building permit.\n- Barbed wire and razor wire are prohibited except for industrial, civic institutional or commercial uses.\n- A swimming pool must be enclosed by a fence at least 1.5 m high that does not block visibility. The Building Bylaw also requires self-closing, self-latching gates and no gaps a 100 mm sphere can pass through.\n- On a corner, no fence, wall, vegetation or other obstruction may be placed where it would reduce the sight distance a driver needs to use the intersection safely (Highway Regulation Bylaw s. 4.1(d)). The bylaw does not give a distance, so ask the Village.","sources":[{"url":"https://anmore.com/building-development/building-renovating/building-requirements/","title":"Building Requirements, Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Bylaw-568-2017-Zoning-Bylaw-CONSOLIDATED-2026-10-22-1.pdf","title":"Zoning Bylaw No. 568-2017 (PDF, consolidated to Amendment Bylaw No. 735-2026), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Bylaw-583-2018-Building-Bylaw-Consolidated-December-2019.pdf","title":"Building Bylaw No. 583-2018 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Bylaw-586-2018-Highway-Regulation-Consolidated-2025-05-15.pdf","title":"Highway Regulation Bylaw No. 586-2018 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/village-hall/contact-us/","title":"Contact Us, Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"}],"sources_read":"2026-11-08","review":{"status":"machine_checked","badge":"Checked against official text","label":"Checked by script, not yet by a person: the official wording behind 6 of 6 facts was matched to the official text."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/fence-rules/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/fence-rules.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/fence-rules.json"}},{"title":"Anmore permits for decks, sheds, carports and garages","question":"Do I need a permit for a deck, shed, carport, or garage in Anmore?","slug":"deck-shed-garage-permit","place":{"path":"ca/bc/anmore","name":"Anmore","region":{"code":"bc","name":"British Columbia"},"country":{"code":"ca","name":"Canada"}},"category":{"slug":"building-and-renovating","name":"Building, renovating and your property"},"owner":"municipal","owner_label":"Municipal","owner_body":{"name":"Village of Anmore","url":"https://anmore.com"},"short_answer":"In Anmore a new shed, garage or other accessory building needs a building permit; the Village states no size threshold.

A permit is needed to cut down any tree 20 cm (7.8 inches) or more in diameter, measured 1.4 m above the ground. Hedges are not \"trees\". \"Cut down\" includes topping, poisoning, and damaging roots within the dripline. The Village must be told of every removal by permit, even one that fits the annual allowance. The sources read state no exemption from needing a permit.\n\nAfter cutting, at least 10% of a lot up to 0.2 ha (1/2 acre) must stay covered by trees, and 20% on lots from 0.2 to 0.4 ha. Bigger lots need more (20% plus 5% for each extra acre, up to 75%).\n\n## Steps\n\n1. Choose your reason: the annual allowance, a dead or dangerous tree, building purposes or other.\n2. Submit the Tree Removal Permit Application with the required attachments, such as a survey plan and an arborist report on the trees' condition and location.\n3. Pay the fee and any replacement-tree security.\n4. Where replacement is required, plant 2 replacement trees for every tree removed (at least 3 m tall if coniferous, 7 cm across if deciduous) within one month. The security is held for 3 years. Where replanting is needed to meet the minimum tree cover, 3 trees are planted per tree cut.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- The annual allowance permit lets you cut up to 2 trees per lot per calendar year with no replacement trees.\n- A dangerous tree must be identified in writing by a Certified Tree Risk Assessor. It still needs a permit, but the fee is waived. In imminent danger, tell the Village as soon as possible.\n- Nobody may cut down or remove trees growing on a highway (including boulevards), or damage or remove trees and shrubs the Village has planted there, except under a Highway Use Permit (Highway Regulation Bylaw s. 4.2).\n- Cutting without a permit: a bylaw notice is $500 per tree ($350 if paid within 14 days); a municipal ticket is $1,000 per tree. The Village's building guide also says $1,000 per tree. Trees cut illegally must be replaced 5 for 1.","sources":[{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Bylaw-587-2018-Tree-Management.pdf","title":"Tree Management Bylaw No. 587, 2018 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Bylaw-608-2019-Fees-and-Charges-Bylaw-Consolidated-2025-11-21.pdf","title":"Fees and Charges Bylaw No. 608-2019, Schedule A (PDF, consolidated to November 21, 2025), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Bylaw-625-2021-Bylaw-Notice-Enforcement-Bylaw-Consolidated-2026-05-01.pdf","title":"Bylaw Notice Enforcement Bylaw No. 625-2021 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Bylaw-479-2009-Municipal-Ticket-Information-Utilization-Consolidated-Jul-20.2.pdf","title":"Municipal Ticket Information Utilization Bylaw No. 479-2009 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Bylaw-586-2018-Highway-Regulation-Consolidated-2025-05-15.pdf","title":"Highway Regulation Bylaw No. 586-2018 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/building-development/building-renovating/building-guide/","title":"Building Guide, Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/tree-removal-permit-application/","title":"Tree Removal Permit Application, Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"}],"sources_read":"2026-11-08","review":{"status":"machine_checked","badge":"Checked against official text","label":"Checked by script, not yet by a person: the official wording behind 7 of 7 facts was matched to the official text."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/tree-removal/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/tree-removal.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/tree-removal.json"}},{"title":"Anmore garbage collection: schedule, carts and limits","question":"When is garbage collected in Anmore, and what are the rules for carts and limits?","slug":"garbage-collection","place":{"path":"ca/bc/anmore","name":"Anmore","region":{"code":"bc","name":"British Columbia"},"country":{"code":"ca","name":"Canada"}},"category":{"slug":"garbage-and-recycling","name":"Garbage, recycling and waste"},"owner":"municipal","owner_label":"Municipal","owner_body":{"name":"Village of Anmore","url":"https://anmore.com"},"short_answer":"In Anmore, garbage is collected bi-weekly on alternating Fridays.

Organics (kitchen and yard waste) and recycling are collected every Friday, starting at 7 a.m., subject to holiday changes. The Village runs garbage and organics; Recycle BC runs recycling; both use GFL Environmental on the same day.

Lids and locks must work.\n- **Set-out:** put carts and recyclables on the driveway, as near as possible to the travelled road, between 5:30 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. on collection day, with locks unlocked.

Parcels over 1 acre: no more than 24 poultry (1 rooster), 7 female rabbits with litters, or 50 rabbits.\n- The bylaw does not explain how the 2-acre rule and these limits combine on small lots. Ask the Village.\n- A shelter, run area or use that was lawful when the bylaw took effect in 1993 may continue unless it stops for 6 months. Animals may be kept only where the Zoning Bylaw allows.\n- No fine for breaking these rules is listed in the bylaw notice or ticket schedules.","sources":[{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Bylaw-96-1993-Animal-Control.pdf","title":"Animal Control Bylaw No. 96-1993 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Bylaw-270-2000-Dog-Control.pdf","title":"Dog Control Bylaw No. 270-2000 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Bylaw-568-2017-Zoning-Bylaw-CONSOLIDATED-2026-10-22-1.pdf","title":"Zoning Bylaw No. 568-2017 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"}],"sources_read":"2026-11-08","review":{"status":"machine_checked","badge":"Checked against official text","label":"Checked by script, not yet by a person: the official wording behind 3 of 6 facts was matched to the official text; 2 are recorded as not set; 1 could not be confirmed."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/how-many-pets/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/how-many-pets.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/how-many-pets.json"}},{"title":"Anmore backyard chickens, bees and livestock rules","question":"Can I keep chickens, bees, or other livestock?","slug":"backyard-chickens","place":{"path":"ca/bc/anmore","name":"Anmore","region":{"code":"bc","name":"British Columbia"},"country":{"code":"ca","name":"Canada"}},"category":{"slug":"pets-and-wildlife","name":"Pets, animals and wildlife"},"owner":"municipal","owner_label":"Municipal","owner_body":{"name":"Village of Anmore","url":"https://anmore.com"},"short_answer":"In Anmore, hens count as poultry under the Animal Control Bylaw: up to 12 adult birds (no roosters) on a parcel under 1 acre, up to 24 over 1 acre.

Within 14 days of receiving the notice, either pay or ask for dispute adjudication.\n2. To dispute, complete the notice and deliver or mail it to 2697 Sunnyside Road, Anmore, B.C.

Some building permit penalties have no discount.\n- **Pay late:** after more than 30 days, or if still unpaid, the \"penalty with surcharge\" applies. For $500 penalties it stays $500.\n- A notice cannot be disputed after 14 days. Someone who loses a dispute pays an additional $25.\n- The municipal ticket schedule lists a higher tree-cutting fine ($1,000 per tree). Confirm which applies with the Village.","sources":[{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Bylaw-625-2021-Bylaw-Notice-Enforcement-Bylaw-Consolidated-2026-05-01.pdf","title":"Bylaw Notice Enforcement Bylaw No. 625-2021 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Bylaw-479-2009-Municipal-Ticket-Information-Utilization-Consolidated-Jul-20.2.pdf","title":"Municipal Ticket Information Utilization Bylaw No. 479-2009 (PDF), Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://anmore.com/village-hall/contact-us/","title":"Contact Us, Village of Anmore","accessed":"2026-11-08"}],"sources_read":"2026-11-08","review":{"status":"machine_checked","badge":"Checked against official text","label":"Checked by script, not yet by a person: the official wording behind 6 of 6 facts was matched to the official text."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/bylaw-fines/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/bylaw-fines.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/anmore/bylaw-fines.json"}},{"title":"Anmore business licences: who needs one, fees and how to apply","question":"Do I need a business licence in Anmore, and how do I get one?","slug":"business-licence","place":{"path":"ca/bc/anmore","name":"Anmore","region":{"code":"bc","name":"British Columbia"},"country":{"code":"ca","name":"Canada"}},"category":{"slug":"business","name":"Starting and running a business"},"owner":"municipal","owner_label":"Municipal","owner_body":{"name":"Village of Anmore","url":"https://anmore.com"},"short_answer":"Yes.
