Enforcement
If you would like to make a complaint please ensure that you consult the Public Complaint Assistance and Information Package to fill out the appropriate municipal complaint form. Also included is an outline of the enforcement process and specific instructions for complaints regarding barking dogs. The completion (and signing) of the proper form will ensure that the Bylaw Officer has all the information required to investigate the matter.
Alternatively, you can submit your complaint online via the submission form found here. The department cannot guarantee that complaints received by other means (verbally, by telephone, e-mail, etc.) will be promptly addressed. For any inquiries or assistance regarding Municipal Bylaws, please contact the Bylaw Officer by e-mail or telephone 403.625.3381.
