BYLAWS EXPLAINED

Bylaws are laws created by the municipality. They are enforced by Peace Officers or Development Officers. Bylaws in Alberta are created generally under the authority of the Municipal Government Act (Alberta).

Every proposed bylaw must have 3 distinct and separate meetings during Regular, Delegation or Special Meetings.  The public is encouraged to provide input.  A Bylaw is passed when it receives third reading and is signed in accordance with Section 213.
