By-laws and Enforcement

All by-law enforcement within the Township of Stone Mills is conducted on a complaint driven basis.  Complaints must be submitted in writing. The names of persons submitting a complaint will be held in confidence, except in those instances where enforcement requires the complainant to make a statement or appear in court in respect to the said complaint.  Anonymous submissions do not constitute a written complaint.
