Designated officers write the tickets: the bylaw enforcement officer, and for some bylaws the fire chief, building official, manager of operations or RCMP. Dog Control tickets are issued by the RDNO.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- First-offence examples: disturbing noise $200, unsightly property $250, overgrown grass $100, fire contrary to the bylaw $200, fireworks without a permit $250, storing a vehicle on a street over 72 hours $100, breaking sprinkling rules $100, no business licence $500, animal at large $150. Second offences are usually higher.\n- Dog licence and dog control tickets are the RDNO's: $300 unlicensed, $150 at large, $200 barking.\n- In court, penalties under the Good Neighbour Bylaw can go up to $10,000.\n- RDNO dog-control bylaw notices: a discount applies if paid within 14 days, depending on the notice. If not paid within 14 days and no dispute is filed, the full notice amount is due and it may go to a collection agent. A dispute must be filed within 14 days.\n- The Village's ticket bylaw and website do not say how to pay or dispute a Village ticket, the deadline, or any early-payment discount. Ask the Village office, 250-547-2171.","sources":[{"url":"https://lumby.civicweb.net/document/7236/","title":"Ticket Information Authorization Bylaw No. 903, 2025 (Municipal Ticketing Bylaw), Village of Lumby","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://lumby.civicweb.net/document/6001/","title":"Good Neighbour Bylaw No. 877, 2022, Village of Lumby","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://www.rdno.ca/dog-control","title":"Dog Control, Regional District of North Okanagan","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://www.rdno.ca/sites/default/files/2025-03/BL_2881_C.pdf","title":"Dog Control Bylaw No. 2881, 2021, consolidated (PDF)","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://lumby.ca/contact-us/","title":"Contact us, Village of Lumby","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/lumby/bylaw-fines/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/lumby/bylaw-fines.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/lumby/bylaw-fines.json"}}
