Report A By-Law Infraction
It is always best if neighbours can respectfully resolve their issues without submitting a complaint. If possible, discuss the problem with your neighbour. Remember to focus on the issue, listen to their concerns, and look for mutually beneficial solutions.
If your efforts to resolve the matter with your neighbour are unsuccessful, the SEBBS team may be able to assist in resolving the issue. Contact SEBBS to learn about Municipal By-laws and if they apply to your situation.
Submissions are reviewed during regular office hours. Within 5 (five) business days of receipt of the complaint, an acknowledgement will be provided to the complainant either in person at the point of service by the staff member receiving it, by phone or in writing (via e-mail or mail). The acknowledgement will identify who will be assigned to investigate and follow up on the complaint and the investigator will provide the complainant with their contact information. All complaints are kept confidential.
