Wolfville Climate Action - Pathway to Sustainable Prosperity

The Wolfville Policing Services Review Committee is looking for feedback from residents and stakeholders in the Town.To complete the review of our policing services, both online data collection and facilitated engagement sessions are being used to gather insights, experiences, opinions, and perspectives.The information shared by community members will help the Committee understand local expectations and experiences when it comes to community safety and policing. These expectations and experiences will help guide the Wolfville Policing Review Committee as they develop a request for proposal, as they review the submitted proposals and as they make recommendations to Town Council.BACKGROUND:The RCMP has been providing police services in the Town of Wolfville for more than 20 years. Last November, citing a need for due diligence, service level concerns, costs and plans for a new Town Hall, Council decided to begin a police services review.In 2000, after moving away from Wolfville&rsquo;s own municipal force to the RCMP as a service provider, a Statement of Roles and Responsibilities document outlined the expectations for the policing service. At that time, community policing was a priority, including bylaw enforcement and regular foot patrols. These priorities remain in place today.Wolfville currently pays for nine officers, including a Sergeant and one detachment assistant. The Wolfville officers all report out of the Wolfville Detachment of the RCMP.Currently, the Kings RCMP operates under a District Policing Model, which means all officers within the district, including the dedicated Wolfville members, can be deployed within the district based on need and priorities. Wolfville benefits from this on key weekends where additional RCMP officers from New Minas are brought in to support the Wolfville complement of officers, but Wolfville officers can also be deployed to other areas within Kings if required, which could possibly lead to slower response times on some of the less urgent calls within Town.The Policing Service Review allows the Town to explore all options and determine whether the RCMP is the best fit to meet the community&rsquo;s needs or if another, alternative service delivery model, would be more effective. <img src="https://s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com/ehq-production-canada/0743bfcaaac40275ad4c829adea618756d759269/original/1654002454/8fb7c8d5d7f3352f91ee28d2ff6a1f38_Policing_Review_Graphic.jpg?1654002454" style="width: 552px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib">

The goal of this page is to provide answers to some frequently asked questions from landlords, tenants and residents about housing in Wolfville and to provide clarity for both parties when navigating complex documents such as land use bylaws and municipal planning strategies.

What permits are required for Single Room Occupancies?After a Fire and Life Safety Inspection takes place, a Development Permit is issued. Are there property minimum standards in Wolfville?Yes, the Property Minimum Standards Bylaw can be viewed <a href="https://www.wolfville.ca/component/com_docman/Itemid,300/alias,2644-046-property-minimum-standards-bylaw-jan-2020/category_slug,bylaws/view,download/">here.</a> These standards apply to all homeowners and landlords in Wolfville and include guidelines on the following:<ul><li>Lawn and ground care, walkways, steps, driveways and parking areas,</li><li>Waste storage,</li><li>Accessory buildings such as sheds and garages,</li><li>Fire prevention, structural soundness, drainage and prevention of dampness,</li><li>Pest prevention and control,</li><li>Interior walls, ceiling and floors, foundations and exterior walls, roofs, eavestroughs and gutters,</li><li>Windows and doors, stairs, decks and balconies, egress,</li><li>Heating, electrical services, plumbing, ventilation,</li><li>Bathroom facilities, sleeping rooms, kitchens, cleanliness.</li></ul>Property Minimum Standards are enforceable and appointed staff persons may carry out an inspection to ensure compliance with this bylaw.

These uses are permitted to continue under the new Land Use Bylaw. If you are unsure if your use is considered an existing use or would like to change the use, please contact Development Officer Marcia Elliott to confirm.<a href="mailto:melliott@wolfville.ca">melliott@wolfville.ca</a> Business LicensingResidential rental properties are the biggest business in Wolfville. Therefore, Wolfville Town Council is considering licensing landlords under a business license. Doing so would help Town Staff know who is operating a rental unit in the Town and would help form a directory of landlords which would streamline information sharing when necessary.The Town has been working on better integration between neighbours and different housing types, Single Room Occupancies are an example of a new type of housing in Wolfville. Learn more about the business licensing process <a href="http://wolfvilleblooms.ca/businesslicense">here.</a> Next Steps for Business LicensingA Request for Direction was brought to Council on January 11th, 2022 seeking direction for Staff to develop a business license for the Town that includes landlords. Information will be updated on this page as it becomes available.Council directed staff to move ahead with a business licensing program. Staff will hold engagement sessions with landlords in the coming months as this process evolves.Letters including an invitation to engagement sessions will be sent to all landlords, if you need to update your address, please email Marcia Elliott at <a href="mailto:melliott@wolfville.ca">melliott@wolfville.ca</a> If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact Lindsay Slade at <a href="mailto:lslade@wolfville.ca">lslade@wolfville.ca</a>
