Improvements areas of Acton and Georgetown but it has been designed so that it could be changed to Include all of Hills If a future council wishes to do so The bylaw is built on existing building fire codes and is necessary if the town hopes to get in on main street Iliation programs through the ministry of housing Mr Venditti says the bylaw is something In the nature of an Insurance policy If the government Is going to lend the town money to fix up its downtown cores then It wonts a guarantee that things won be allowed to slip backwards again a few years after the project Is completed The bylaw acts as the guarantee Included In the bylaw is a provision to establish a proper standards committee of not less than three ratepayers appointed by council who will hear appeals of any notices of violation Issued by the bylaw officer If the bylaw enforcement officer serves an order to comply with standards owners will have up to BO days lo meet the order or they can appeal conditions in the order by serving notice of appeal to the committee within days of the order being issued If they still are unhappy with the committee a decision it could be appealed further to a county court judge An owner found guilty of an offence through the Judicial process may be fined no more than MOO per day that the violation exists but fines are not applicable during the early stages of any dispute of an order when appeals are being made to the committee or before than when a violation la found A very last resort for ho would be to make the repair of demolition and charge the owner the cost of the
