The City of Belleville is looking for feedback as it reviews several key by-laws.
Officials want to ensure those by-laws remain relevant and effectively address the needs of the community.
Among the by-laws being reviewed are Property Standards, Clean and Clear Yards, Noise and Littering.
Property Standards By-law (By-law Number 2012-79) – Sets the rules for maintaining both occupied and unoccupied buildings, ensuring safe and healthy living standards for everyone.
Clean and Clear Yards By-law (By-law Number 2014-120) – Outlines how land should be maintained outside buildings, like keeping grass at a reasonable length and yards free of debris.
Littering By-law (By-law Number 2011-206) – Takes a stance against littering on private and public properties, including parks and roads.
Noise By-law (By-law Number 2011-180) – Regulates allowable noise types and times, helping everyone enjoy a more peaceful community.
Public input can be made via the By-law Review Survey which is open until March 4.
Feedback collected will be compiled, presented to the review committee and considered in the redevelopment of the by-laws.
Complete copies of each by-law can be downloaded through the project page at Belleville.ca/BylawReview.
