Bylaws

The Municipal Government Act allows us to create and enforce bylaws that address the safety, issues, and concerns of residents. All bylaws are passed by Regional Council. If you wish to report a bylaw violation, call Pulse at 780-743-7000.

If you’re looking for information on bylaws you can’t seem to find here, contact Pulse.
