BY-LAW ENFORCEMENT
Property Standards
The Township inspects buildings and/or properties when there is a written complaint concerning exterior conditions. These inspections ensure compliance with the Township of Wellington North’s Property Standards By-law regulating property standards. These standards are intended to remedy issues of public or occupant safety in or around existing buildings or on vacant land.
If you would like to speak to a Property Standards Officer, please contact the Building / By-law Department at 519-848-3620.
Complaint Process
The complaint must be received in writing before a site visit is conducted. A formal order to comply is given to the offender stating the date of compliance. Failure to comply gives authority to the Municipality to authorize clean up and charge back fees as real taxes. An offender who wishes to appeal the decision may do so to the Property Standards Committee in writing by registered mail.
