How it works

The Good Neighbour Bylaw No. 788, 2018 is named in the Village's ticket schedule but is not posted on the Village website. The list below comes from the ticket schedule in the Bylaw Enforcement Bylaw 856, not from the bylaw wording. Ticketable items include:

• accumulated rubbish, garbage or discarded material
• offensive matter and standing water
• unmaintained grass or vegetation, and unstacked firewood
• vehicle parts, and excess unregistered vehicles or RVs
• graffiti, building materials, pests, fences in disrepair and derelict buildings

Steps

1. Report it by telephone (250-699-6257), in writing, by email or in person at the Village Office.
2. Give your name, address and phone number, the property address, the dates you saw the problem and a detailed description.
3. A Bylaw Enforcement Officer investigates and works with the person to fix it voluntarily.

Good to know

• Council may order a hazard or declared nuisance fixed at the person's cost, and a licence or permit may be suspended until the person complies.
• The posted text does not state notice periods.
• Early amounts apply if paid within 14 days; late amounts after 28 days.
