Bylaw Enforcement

Municipal bylaws help support the general enjoyment of our community by defining basic standards for maintenance and activities within the City’s legal authority that can have an impact on others.

In Courtenay, bylaw enforcement is complaint-based, with Bylaw Enforcement Officers responding to a wide range of questions and concerns from residents and businesses.

Their goal is achieving voluntary compliance wherever possible through education. If voluntary compliance cannot be achieved, enforcement measures may include tickets or court proceedings, at the discretion of Bylaw Enforcement Officers and the City of Courtenay.
