About the project
The City of Belleville is conducting a review of a few key by-laws, including the Property Standards By-law, Clean and Clear Yards By-law, Noise By-law, and Littering By-law. The goal of the review and update is to keep our local rules relevant, effective and aligned with our community's changing needs, laws and policies. This review allows us to update old rules and ensure they comply with provincial and federal legislation.
Here is a quick overview of what each by-law covers:
- Property Standards By-law: Sets the rules for maintaining both occupied and unoccupied buildings, ensuring safe and healthy living standards for everyone.
- Clean and Clear Yards By-law: Outlines how land should be maintained outside buildings, like keeping grass at a reasonable length and yards free of debris.
- Littering By-law: Takes a stance against littering on private and public properties, including parks and roads.
- Noise By-law: Regulates allowable noise types and times, helping everyone enjoy a more peaceful community.
Community Engagement
We want to hear from you! We are asking all residents to complete our By-Law Review Survey before March 4 to provide their comments on the Property Standards By-law, Clean and Clear Yards By-law, Noise By-law, and Littering By-law. Feedback collected will be compiled, presented to the review committee and considered in the redevelopment of the by-laws.
