# By-laws The Township of Chatsworth is committed to responding to service requests and formal complaints about municipal programs, services, facilities, staff, and operational procedures consistently, and by following a clearly defined process. This process is in place to facilitate the response to requests for service and/or complaints arising from current levels of service being offered by the Municipality. ## Complaints - By-law Enforcement The Township of Chatsworth's By-Law Enforcement Officer enforces municipal by-laws in a way that protects the community's health, safety and quality of life. The By-Law Enforcement Officer investigates written complaints about property standards, parking, noise, zoning infractions and other municipal by-laws. By-law enforcement and animal control is provided by **Municipal Support Services**. You can file a complaint about a possible by-law violation (e.g. parking, noise, zoning, building, or property standards) or animal control concern (eg. Dogs running at large, barking) by completing a complaint form (PDF) and submitting it to: (New as of July 30,2025) [email protected] or by telephone at 226-910-1322. Depending on the nature of the complaint, the By-Law Enforcement Officer may ask you to provide evidence and/or to appear as a witness in any court proceeding about the complaint made. ## Service Request A Service Request is not a complaint. A service request is notifying the municipality of an issue or request whether it be a matter of maintenance, safety, or otherwise. We appreciate these types of submissions as we may not be aware of the issue and can address it faster. Examples of service requests could be a street light out, potholes, or missed garbage collection. You can submit a service request using the Complaint/Service Request Form (PDF) and submit it to [email protected] or by calling the Township office at 519-794-3232. ## Commonly Requested By-laws See all resources 2026-22 Fees and Charges By-laws Procedural By-law 2022-20 By-laws Noise By-law 2001-23 By-laws Animal Control By-law 2019-32 (amended by 2020-76) By-laws Cemetery By-law 2023-40 By-laws Zoning By-law 2025-12 By-laws Food and Refreshment Vehicle Licensing By-laws Building By-law By-laws
