How it works

Granisle uses a Municipal Ticket Information system. The Ticket Information Utilization Bylaw No. 344 lets listed bylaws be enforced by a ticket in the form prescribed under the Local Government Act. Depending on the bylaw, tickets can be issued by the bylaw enforcement officer, the RCMP, the animal control officer, the Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako building inspector or the Village licence inspector.

Good to know

  • Examples: unlicensed dog $50, dog at large $50, noise that disturbs $100, permitting rubbish to collect $100.
  • The bylaw also lists building without a permit ($100) and no business licence ($50), but those rows cite older Building and Business Licence bylaws (Nos. 259 and 256) that have since been replaced. Check the current bylaw with the Village.
  • The bylaw sets one amount per offence. It has no early-payment discount and no late-payment increase.
  • It does not describe how to dispute a ticket. Ask the Village Office, 250.697.2248, or read the instructions on the ticket.
  • Individual bylaws may also set court fines. See the related answers for each topic.
