The City is undertaking a comprehensive review of the By-Law Number 2006-213, "A By-Law to License, Regulate and Govern Certain Businesses". Also known as the "Business Licensing By-Law", staff are proposing minor housekeeping changes to most of the regulated businesses. There are also some new businesses being added in consideration of health and safety, nuisance control and consumer protection.
