Student Resource Living Together Peacefully Edmonton is a city of about one million people. As the city grows, how do you think its challenges grow with it What do you think it takes to ensure that everyone has opportunities to live together peacefully Community standards and bylaws are guidelines and rules that help people live together peacefully in diverse neighbourhoods of a city. Bylaws are not meant to restrict behaviours, freedoms and choices. They are meant to help neighbours respect each other’s property and share public places that everyone uses and are part of every urban neighbourhood. Each municipality can pass legislation, or laws, that allow it to regulate how people should behave and what their responsibilities are. This legislation takes the form of bylaws and licensing requirements. Sometimes, bylaws result from legislation that the province has passed. Cities, like all other municipalities, must ensure that people follow the rules that are passed for the common good. For example, the Alberta Weed Control Act requires all municipalities in Alberta to control harmful weeds that can spread and damage crops in rural areas. Bylaws often reflect the values, or ideas and behaviours that are considered important for good relationships, and the ways of life of the people who live in the city. Bylaws provide minimum standards that everyone must follow. They also identify the responsibilities of people who live in neighbourhoods or business owners who provide services or facilities. In the City of Edmonton, the Community Standards Bylaw provides rules that property owners must follow to maintain the areas that surround their properties – such as yards, buildings, fences, public boulevards and sidewalks. These rules describe what all people can and cannot do so that both private and public places are respected and maintained. 72 Make A Better City
