The Resort Municipality of Whistler (RMOW) is the local government and runs planning and development, building permits, business licences, parks and Village operations, recreation facilities, water, sewer and roads, bylaw enforcement (including dog licensing and animal control with Whistler Animals Galore as the shelter) and Whistler Fire Rescue. There is no curbside garbage pickup; residents use the Municipality's waste depots and the Waste Transfer Station, and large strata and businesses hire private contractors. Policing is by the Whistler RCMP. The official pages used here do not describe services run by the Squamish-Lillooet Regional District. Marriage licences, health cards and driver's licences are provincial matters.
