Local governments have a significant impact on people's daily lives. By-laws developed for the community are the enabling legislation that helps shape policy, development and financial decisions to achieve the common goals of the community.
Three provincial laws govern municipalities in New Brunswick and shape their scope: the Local Governance Act, the Community Planning Act and the Regional Service Delivery Act. Through these acts of legislation, the By-laws of Hampton are developed before being brought to the Council for review. Each by-law proposal, or proposed change, must undergo three readings at public meetings of the Council before being enacted to ensure the public’s participation in the process.
Residents who wish to provide feedback on any of the following By-laws may contact the Clerk’s Office at 506-832-6065 or by email clerksoffice@hampton.ca.
