MUNICIPALITY OF ST.-CHARLES
TRAVEL TRAILER LICENCING POLICY
All property owners or travel trailer users who have been granted permission to use travel
trailers are required to follow the standards set in the "Travel Trailer Licensing By-Law".
The Municipal Law Enforcement Officer will act not only on written complaints but will use
a common-sense approach to the application of the Travel Trailer Licensing By-Law.
When a complaint is received, an Officer will investigate to determine if a violation exists.
This By-Law will not be used to resolve issues between neighbors. lf a violation is found,
the Officer can issue fines, an Administrative Monetary Penalty Notice or an Order
advising the owner of the violation and requiring that it be remedied within a specified
time period. As the complaints and the investigations become more numerous, past
practice data as well as the consistent application of the Policy will become more evident
and will act as a guide in the application of the By-Law.
This By-Law has been put in place with the intention of protecting our environment by
assuring that waste is properly disposed of and setting proper setbacks from waterways,
to ensure that travel trailers are placed in areas that will not affect neighbours, to set
safety standards for electrical and fire protection and to allow for enjoyment of our
beautiful area.
Please be aware that if you are using a travel trailer in our area, you are also subject to
other By-Laws including by not limited to Noise, Parking, Responsible Animal Ownership
and Open-Air Burning. Please be respectful of your neighbours while visiting our area.
lf you have any questions, please do not hesitate to inquire with our staff.
This information is for convenience and quick reference only. For specific
information, contact the Municipal Law Enforcement Officer at the Municipal Office.
