What it can do

  • Municipal purposes

    Provides good government; services, facilities or other things council considers necessary or desirable; safe and viable communities; the well-being of the environment; economic development; and works with neighbouring municipalities on intermunicipal services (Municipal Government Act s.3). A municipality has natural person powers (s.6).

  • Bylaws

    Passes and enforces bylaws on the safety, health and welfare of people and protection of people and property; people, activities and things in or near public places; nuisances, including unsightly property; wild and domestic animals; and the enforcement of bylaws, with fines of up to $10,000 or imprisonment of up to one year (Municipal Government Act s.7(a)-(c), (h), (i)).

  • Business licensing

    Regulates businesses, business activities and persons engaged in business, including by licences and permits (Municipal Government Act s.7(e), s.8).

  • Property tax

    Sets the property tax: council must pass a property tax bylaw every year to raise the revenue its budget needs (Municipal Government Act s.353).

  • Roads

    Has the direction, control and management of all roads within the municipality, subject to other Acts (Municipal Government Act s.18); bylaws on transport and transportation systems (s.7(d)).

  • Public utilities

    May provide and regulate public utilities: water, sewage disposal, public transportation operated by or for the municipality, irrigation, drainage, fuel, electric power, heat, waste management and street lighting (Municipal Government Act s.1(1)(y), s.7(g)).

  • Municipal services

    Provides and regulates services delivered by or on behalf of the municipality (Municipal Government Act s.3(b), s.7(f)).

  • Land use planning and development

    Adopts a municipal development plan and a land use bylaw that regulates the use and development of land and buildings (Municipal Government Act s.632, s.640); decides development permits and subdivisions under Part 17.

  • Policing

    Cities, and towns, villages and summer villages with more than 5,000 people, must arrange their own policing: a municipal or regional police service, or an agreement such as with the provincial police service. Municipal districts, specialized municipalities (outside urban service areas over 5,000) and towns, villages and summer villages of 5,000 or fewer receive provincial policing and may choose their own service instead (Police Act s.4).
