LGD: Improvement District Bylaws
Circular No. 09:02
ARCS File#: 195-20
January 22, 2009
To: Boards of Trustees and Corporate Officers
Re: Improvement District Bylaws
Further to Circular 08:24, sent to all improvement districts last month, this is another reminder that on January 1, 2009,
certain types of bylaws no longer require registration with the Inspector of Municipalities. However, one certified copy
of the bylaws exempted from registration must be filed with the Inspector of Municipalities as soon as possible after it
is passed by the trustees.
For an interim period of time, Ministry staff will be monitoring improvement district bylaws submitted for filing to determine if there are any common issues. In order to assist improvement districts to draft bylaws, a series of bylaw drafting tips have been prepared and is attached for your convenience. This information will be integrated into the Improvement District Manual which is being updated and will be reissued later this year.
If you have any questions about the new bylaw process or the wording being considered for a bylaw, please contact your Advisory Officer or Financial Officer. Contact information is available on the Ministry’s website at: http://www.cd.gov.bc.ca/lgd/
