The Township of North Huron strives to make the community that we live in safe, healthy and enjoyable for everyone. By-laws are created to regulate and address issues and concerns of the community. By-laws protect the environment, public health, safety and maintain a pleasant community for everyone.
A by-law is a law passed by a municipality. By-laws must be founded on statutory authority, delegated to the municipality by the Province. A by-law is intended to bind not only the Council of the municipality, but also the officers and servants of the municipality and the public.
For questions regarding any of the Township of North Huron’s by-laws, please contact the Clerk’s Department at 519-357-3550.
Frequently Requested By-laws
For convenience, many of the most frequently used by-laws are consolidated. In a consolidated by-law, the original by-law (or "parent" bylaw) is updated to include all of the amendments to that by-law. Every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of this information; however, it is not to be used in place of original by-laws. For accurate reference, certified copies of the official by-laws and documents are available through the Clerk's Department.
We are currently in the process of working to provide our frequently requested by-laws in a convenient, accessible format online. As these by-laws are made accessible, they will be added below.
If you require a by-law not currently listed under our frequently requested by-laws or if you require information in an alternative format, please contact the Clerk’s Department at 519-357-3550.
