Bylaw Enforcement

The Town's Bylaw Services Team focuses on proactive community enforcement and increased public engagement and education. We look forward to working with you! The role of Bylaw Services is to enhance public safety, contributing to a high quality of life in High River. The Town's Bylaw Services team works out of the High River Fire department building and reports to the Deputy Chief - Bylaw and Emergency Services.

Please see the 24/7 Bylaw Complaints Phoneline and General Administration numbers in the sidebar to the right. Residents are also encouraged to use the online Report a Concern form.

Through a 2021 Budget Survey, residents told the Town about the changes they felt are important to High River’s municipal enforcement, including a need for more communication. The Bylaw Services Team will incorporate greater interaction with residents and visitors as Community Ambassadors.
