Creston is a town in the Creston Valley in the Regional District of Central Kootenay (RDCK). The Town of Creston runs planning, building permits, business licences, bylaw enforcement, pet licences, its water and sewer utilities, its Fire Department and curbside collection of garbage, recycling, food waste and yard waste (Tip-It Waste Solutions takes missed-pickup calls). The RDCK runs the recycling depot at 412 Helen Street and the regional landfill. Policing is by the Creston RCMP detachment, which also serves RDCK Areas A, B and C. Marriage licences, health cards and driver's licences are provincial matters, not the Town's.
