- Licence is part of the Community Services Department under the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer and overseen by the Chief Licence Inspector. Licence is responsible for ensuring that businesses operating in Burnaby are appropriately licensed and are in compliance with all applicable bylaws. In addition, the Licence Office enforces bylaws regarding private property matters and property use, acts as the City liaison with the SPCA in response to Animal Control issues, and offers dog licensing. Prior to 2017, bylaw services and parking enforcement were the responsibility of the Transportation division of the Engineering Department, and licensing and property management were the responsibility of the Revenue Services division of the Finance Department. In 2017, these responsibilities transferred to the Public Safety and Community Services Department, and in 2018, combined under Business Licence and Property Management. In 2022, Property Management and the responsibility of rentals and leases of City-owned properties was moved under the newly-created Lands and Facilities Department. Dan Layng has served as Chief Licence Inspector since 2013.
