The Frontage and Sidewalk Maintenance Bylaw 2669, 2019 was adopted on September 17, 2019
The District of Squamish is working on an updated Frontage and Sidewalk Maintenance Bylaw. The Community Charter allows Municipalities to require residents to maintain the cleanliness and safety of public property along the front of their property. Some of these requirements include shoveling snow from sidewalks, trimming grass and pruning trees in the boulevard area in front of your property.
These regulations currently live in two separate bylaws: the Boulevard Bylaw and the Traffic Bylaw. The intention behind the update is to consolidate the regulations into one bylaw, clarify what can and cannot occur in a boulevard area and layout the expectations on the level of maintenance of boulevard areas. Examples of the maintenance provisions outlined in the bylaw, include:
The combined bylaw will outline restrictions on what can and cannot be done in a boulevard. Examples of some restrictions: cutting down trees, planting shrubs, altering ditches or ditch crossings, damaging infrastructure, paving the boulevard etc.
