By-law Enforcement Concern

The Municipality of Trent Hills has experienced significant growth in the last number of years. As a result; the number of property standards and by-law enforcement concerns received annually has steadily increased placing additional strain on our enforcement resources.In an attempt to better track the type of concerns and assist with prioritizing the volume of work the Municipality has a written concern filing system with the following categories:

Class 1 – Concerns that are a public health, safety or property damage implication or where the risk to humans or dogs exists. These examples would include but not limited too unfenced swimming pools, Property Standards Health & Safety Concerns, unsafe or faulty stairs/floors, Dog Attacks. Class 1 violations are considered paramount and receive first priority for enforcement.

Class 2 or Class 3 violations are less serious infractions that do not pose an immediate hazard to person(s) or property. These include things like zoning infractions, long grass and weeds, garbage or rubbish on properties, abandoned or inoperative vehicles and other yard and maintenance issues.

By completing this form, I do hereby give notice of a concern against the owner of the property situated at feeling that the said concern does not conform to the By-laws set out by the Corporation of the Municipality of Trent Hills.

I hereby further declare that if required, I will provide or present evidence in support of this concern at any hearings of Appeals Committee or Court of Law of Ontario.
