By-law 2023-54 Being a By-law to Regulate Animal Care and Control Within the Township was passed on Monday, July 17, 2023 (effectively replacing By-law 2011-44 a By-law to Provide for the Licensing Control and Regulation of Dogs).
Among other regulations, By-law 2023-54 establishes a list of animals prohibited to be kept either temporarily or permanently; exemptions apply. This list is subject to amendment.
Prohibited animals that were lawfully kept within the municipal boundaries of West Lincoln prior to July 17, 2023, are considered "grandfathered in" and must be registered with the Township of West Lincoln. Failure to register a grandfathered Prohibited animal will result in a fine of $150.
Please complete the form below to register your grandfathered Prohibited animal. If you keep more than one grandfathered Prohibited animal, you must complete one form for each of them.
