Peace Officers

Parkland County Peace Officers have a valuable role, ensuring the safety and enjoyment of County roads, communities, and infrastructure through the enforcement of: 

• Provincial statues (e.g., Traffic Safety Act, Gaming and Liquor Act, etc.)
• Municipal bylaws (e.g., Community Standards, Off Highway Vehicles)

Our Peace Officers investigate complaints, such as:

• Unsightly Properties
• Noise
• Graffiti
• Littering
• Nuisance Properties
• Maintenance of Buildings, Structures, and Fences
• Composting

Many offences are enforced by simply educating property owners of the infraction and giving them an opportunity to fix the issue.  Every situation is evaluated on a case-by-case basis and at the Officer's discretion.

Additional services include:

• Animal Services
• Monitoring traffic safety in school zones
• Patrolling residential areas, industrial areas and municipal parks to prevent break and enters, vandalism, and property damage
• Proactive partnerships within the community through Crime Watch/Prevention groups and school programs
• Targeting unsafe commercial vehicles including overweight and over-dimensional vehicles to protect local infrastructure
