The Town of View Royal handles planning, building permits, business licences, bylaw enforcement, roads, sewer, garbage and food-waste collection, parks and View Royal Fire Rescue. Much of daily life runs through the Capital Regional District (CRD): drinking water, Blue Box recycling, Hartland landfill, dog licences and animal control, regional parks such as Thetis Lake, and transit through BC Transit. Policing is by the West Shore RCMP, and recreation centres are shared with neighbouring West Shore municipalities. Many things people think of as "town" matters, like marriage licences, health cards and driver's licences, are provincial.
