Bylaws
The Municipal Government Act authorizes cities such as Edmonton to create and enforce bylaws to maintain the health, safety, and wellness of the community.
Edmonton's bylaws are enacted by City Council and maintained by the Office of the City Clerk. The Office of the City Clerk is available to clarify information, if needed.
