The goal is to help resolve issues more quickly

Lakeshore is moving to clear-up a backlog of bylaw violations.

Councillor Steven Wilder says new, short-form bylaws have been approved to help enforcement officers resolve issues more quickly. "In approval of the wording of the tickets and the fines, it should help simplify our enforcement process.

Mayor Tom Bain says, in many cases, the only recourse against repeat offenders has been through the courts.

That will no longer be necessary.
