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 a reference guide on our bylaws in simple terms, check out the Good Neighbour Guide. The guide provides an overview of municipal bylaws, permitting information and general services in the region.

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