This summer, Cobourg Police Service (CPS) members will provide parking and fire route bylaw education and enforcement on weekends in the Township of Hamilton.
At the request of the Township of Hamilton Council, CPS will oversee this summer initiative for the third year in a row. Fully funded by the Township of Hamilton, the program aims to foster positive community relations to promote awareness and adherence to posted bylaws.
Starting Friday, May 10, 2024, CPS Special Constables will be in the community conducting proactive enforcement of fire zone and parking bylaws, enacting the four E’s—Engage, Explain, Educate, and Enforce. Key communities of focus include Bewdley, Harwood, and Gores Landing. CPS will continue to provide this service each weekend throughout the summer until Labour Day.
Education and engagement are key to increasing awareness of the bylaws and the consequences of parking in a clearly defined fire route or no-parking zone.
