Town collaborates with Fundy Regional Service Commission By-law enforcement pilot project

Published: August 16, 2024 @ 9:30 a.m. 

In collaboration with the Fundy Regional Service Commission (FRSC), the Town of Grand Bay-Westfield has appointed two (2) representatives as part of the FRSC pilot project agreement with Maritime Enforcement Services Inc. (MESI).

The intent of the pilot project is to enhance community vitality and organizational capacity, directly aligning with the Town’s strategic priorities.

This pilot project will allow the Town to refer specific properties to the FRSC for compliance actions.

Residents will notice By-law enforcement vehicles in the community as this pilot project involves proactive monitoring of non-compliant properties with regards to unsightly and dangerous properties.

“The Town of Grand Bay-Westfield is pleased to collaborate with the Fundy Regional Service Commission on this pilot project. The Maritime Enforcement Services Inc. representatives appointed by Town Council will enhance By-law enforcement support to the Town’s By-law/Development Officer. The Town remains committed to fostering a safe and liveable community, as well as our vision of A welcoming place for all to live, grow and thrive.”  – Mayor Brittany Merrifield

The Town will continue to monitor the progress of the pilot project, and make necessary adjustments to ensure its success.
