Property Owner Responsibilities
Property owners have some very basic responsibilities concerning the upkeep of their property to maintain the value of their property and consideration to the community. Additionally, most cities outline various bylaws that hold home and property owners legally responsible for such things as:
- Boulevard Maintenance & Construction

- Structural Capacity (fire and storm damage)
- Sewer Pipe Management
- Care of Vegetation
- Abandoned Vehicle & Rubbish Removal
- Sightline Obstructions
- Tree Management
- Sidewalk Hazards
- Noise Bylaws
- Unsightly/Untidy Premises
