## How it works

Noise in Sun Peaks is covered by the Good Neighbour Bylaw No. 0216, adopted in December 2024. The [official copy](https://sunpeaks.civicweb.net/document/45139/) is a scanned image with no readable text, so we have not read it and cannot state quiet hours, construction hours or noise limits. Ask Bylaw Enforcement for them.

## Good to know

- The [ticket schedule](https://sunpeaks.civicweb.net/document/55686/) lists these noise offences: exceeding nighttime noise levels in Residential, Tourist Accommodation and Village Core districts; failing to post a noise restriction in a rental property; noise disturbing quiet, peace, rest and enjoyment; power equipment noise outside allowable hours or volume; construction noise outside allowed hours; and excessive engine idling. Each is a $500 bylaw notice.
- To complain, use the online bylaw complaint form, call 250-578-2020 ext. 211 or email bylaw@sunpeaksmunicipality.ca. The Bylaw mobile is 778-257-2275; voicemail or text is not a valid complaint. The page does not state bylaw office hours.
- Short-term nightly rental noise: call the 24/7 hotline at 778-910-4479. The on-mountain contact must respond within 30 minutes.
- We found no after-hours line for other noise.
