Administrative report presenting a comprehensive new Community Standards Bylaw to repeal and replace four existing bylaws (noise, nuisance abatement, unsightly premises, and noxious weeds), modernize standards, and add regulations for unoccupied premises, boulevard maintenance, dust control and construction impact management; includes recommended readings and rescinding of related policies.
Attachment 1: City of Langford Noise Regulation Bylaw No. 2056, 2022 (Consolidated / current)
Current Noise Regulation Bylaw (No. 2056, 2022) — includes definitions, general prohibitions, objectionable noise lists, construction/commercial noise permitted hours, permit fees and fine schedules.
Attachment 2: City of Langford Nuisance Abatement Bylaw No. 1501, 2016
Existing Nuisance Abatement Bylaw (No. 1501, 2016) that authorizes the City to abate nuisances, impose costs of abatement on responsible persons/owners/occupiers, and recover costs as debts or on tax rolls; includes schedules for hourly personnel and equipment rates for determining abatement costs.
Attachment 3: Capital Regional District Unsightly Premises By-law No. 1887 (Unsightly Premises By-law No. 1, 1991)
Regional Unsightly Premises bylaw (adopted for Langford historically) prohibiting allowing property to become unsightly, accumulation of filth/garbage/discarded materials, graffiti and allowing the Regional District to clear and charge costs.

Noxious weed control bylaw requiring owners/occupiers to clear specified noxious plants from property and authorizing the District to act and recover costs if owners fail to comply; includes Schedule A listing species.
Attachment 5: Noise Regulation Permit Policy (POL-0168-ADMIN)
Council policy that governed issuance of extraordinary noise permits under the Noise Bylaw (application process and fees); staff recommend rescinding this policy if the proposed Community Standards Bylaw is adopted (because permit powers are included in the bylaw).
