Notice is hereby given that the Amherst Town Council intends to consider a By-law to Repeal the Town of Amherst Vacant Building By-law, P-5.
The subject By-law, adopted in 2011, sets out requirements and standards for vacant buildings. In particular, it requires that vacant buildings be kept weather tight and secure from unauthorized entry. These requirements are already covered and enforced under the Dangerous or Unsightly Premises sections of the Municipal Government Act.
Council intends to give second reading at its next regular meeting scheduled for June 23, 2025 at 6:00 PM. Copies of the repealing by-law may be inspected and/or a copy obtained at the office of the Municipal Clerk, Dominion Public Building, 98 East Victoria Street, Amherst during regular business hours.
Natalie LeBlanc
Municipal Clerk
