Public Service Announcement

The Town of Milton is reviewing the idea of using its Administrative Penalty System (APS) for dispute resolution of all municipal regulatory By-laws. 

APS is the current process that manages disputes of parking by-law infractions in a manner that is fair, effective, and efficient, while enhancing customer service.

Expanding the APS program will transfer By-law disputes from the provincial offences courtroom to the municipality through the use of Screening and Hearing Officers who have the authority to modify, cancel, affirm and extend time to pay for penalties. This process helps to reduce congestion in the Provincial Offences court system and also provides a more local and accessible way for residents to resolve disputes.

Visit LetsTalkMilton.ca to let us know your thoughts about the Administrative Penalty System expansion before May 2, 2024.
