Bylaw Enforcement

The Bylaw Enforcement Department is responsible for investigating, processing and resolving contraventions of the FVRD’s Bylaws.

We encourage residents, where appropriate, to make attempts to resolve issues amicably through discussion when bylaw-related concerns arise. When a resolution is not possible, or circumstances do not allow for a solution, a written complaint may be sent to Bylaw Enforcement for further investigation.

We are available to answer your questions and respond to reports about bylaw violations in the FVRD. Whether it's related to lot maintenance, noise and nuisances, property standards, or zoning bylaw regulations, we're here to help.
