SLRD Bylaw Enforcement and Wildlife Attractant Violation Fines

Recycling, organics & landfill waste containers may only be placed at the curb between 6 am - 7 pm on your collection day and must be stored in a Wildlife Resistant Enclosure (e.g. garage) until the scheduled pickup. 

The SLRD has a Wildlife Attractant Bylaw that covers all Electoral Areas in the SLRD, including Furry Creek and Britannia Beach, with the intent to regulate proper management of wildlife attractants and to offer enforcement tools to help reduce wildlife incidents while maintaining public safety. The SLRD Bylaw officer is actively pursuing ongoing unsecured wildlife attracts and will be issuing infractions fines.

PLEASE NOTE: Maximum fine of up to $500 per occurrence. See the full infraction fine list here.

Please report unsecured attractants to the SLRD: bylawenforcement@slrd.bc.ca or by calling 604-894-6371 (Toll-free: 1-800-298-7753).
