The City of Brandon says “the intention of the Vacant and Derelict By-Law is to ensure vacant buildings are safe, to motivate owners to either use their buildings or redevelop their properties as appropriate. The proposed changes to this by-law will remove enforcement barriers and allow administration to more actively pursue a proactive enforcement approach downtown. The full City Council Report on the proposed changes is available here.
The virtual information session will be on Thursday, December 14, 2023 at 4 p.m.
