Bylaw invoices

A homeowner will receive a bylaw invoice if a City contractor is sent to resolve a bylaw order issued by an officer (examples: snow and ice removal, clean-up of waste or an unsightly premise, removal of material from a street or alleyway, removal of graffiti, grass or weed removal or tree/shrub trimming).

The invoice covers the charges incurred by City contractors in their work to resolve the issue.

The homeowner then receives the financial bill for the work. You can then pay the invoice directly or have it added to your end-of-year tax bill.

You can also appeal the invoice. If you have received an invoice from us for a bylaw infraction and would like to appeal the invoice, please review the information below before submitting your appeal.

When to contact 3-1-1

Please contact 3-1-1 (from within Calgary) or 403-268-CITY (from outside of Calgary) before submitting this form if:

  • You do not have a copy of the invoice and would like to request one.
  • You have general questions about appealing an invoice.

When to submit an appeal

You may submit an appeal if you meet the following criteria:

  • You are appealing the invoice within 35 days of the invoice date (listed in the upper right hand corner of the invoice). Please reference this example of an invoice.
  • You are the registered property owner (tenants can not submit an appeal).
  • The property address and roll number listed on the invoice is the actual service  location where the corrective action was taken.
  • You have a copy of the invoice. Without this invoice you will not have enough information to submit an appeal. Please reference this example invoice which demonstrates the information you will be required to provide (highlighted in yellow).
