By-Law Officers Want Fines


City By-law officers are asking the City to give them the power to write tickets for a number of offences including smoking on hospital grounds.
Manager Ron Bourret thinks fines will help stop bad behaviour. The hospital is asking for a 150 dollar fine for smoking on their grounds, by-law officers are also looking for a set fine of 250 dollars for smoking in a workplace or 10 meters from the edge of a beach.
