A by-law is a municipal law passed under the authority of a Provincial Act. By-laws are the laws that govern municipalities. By-laws are enacted by Council in order to keep the community safe, ensure compatible property uses, and to keep the Municipality of Brighton a pleasing place to live and work in. The Municipal Clerk maintains on file all of the administrative and regulatory by-laws of the Municipality.
Below are frequently requested By-laws. The attached By-laws are not the official versions, or legal documents. Only the signed and sealed version of a By-law issued by the Municipal Clerk is the official version. To search for other municipal by-laws or yearly please use the CivicWeb portal. Addtionally, illegal dumping should be reported to the Northumberland County Waste Management Department at 1-866-293-8379.
