Bylaws are rules and regulations created and enforced by The City of Calgary to help maintain the health and safety of the community. Bylaws in Calgary are issued from City Council.
Association bylaws cover a range of topics like an organization's purpose, how meetings should be run and membership requirements. By ironing out these details, associations can stay focused and save time when navigating operations thanks to having established standards in place.
A byelaw is a law which only affects the area of a Council. They are issued (made) by that Council only when it has been granted the power to do so by an Act of Parliament. The purpose of byelaws is to prevent or reduce some nuisance or harm to people who live, visit or work in that area.
Bylaws are the legally binding rules that outline how the board of a nonprofit will operate. While they are unique to each organization, nonprofit bylaws generally have a similar structure and use.
