- Water By-law Update - 2024-150.pdf
Water Services asks Council to approve a rewritten Water By-law and repeal the 1991 version, which predates many current provincial rules and industry practices. The update followed internal consultation and a review of other Ontario municipalities' water by-laws. Among other things, it confirms that only the City's certified drinking water operators may operate the municipal drinking water system.
