Follow local bylaws and guidelines
We strongly encourage you to celebrate respectfully and responsibly to keep yourselves, each other, and the community safe.
Starting March 1, watch for the Student Community Relations team and community partners who will be knocking on near-campus neighbourhood doors to distribute information (PDF, 291 KB) and answer your questions about local bylaws and the city’s University District Safety Initiative.
The University District Safety Initiative is in effect March 10 to 20
The City’s University District Safety Initiative (UDSI) aims to decrease disruptive behaviours and strain on emergency services that have historically arisen when large street parties take place.
If you are charged or ticketed under local bylaws, you could face:
- Fines up to $2,000
- A court appearance
- Sanctions under Queen’s Student Code of Conduct
Avoid bylaw violations related to:
- Nuisance parties
- Climbing – “brewfing”
- Obstructing a roadway
- Failure to comply with a bylaw or police officer
- Excessive noise
- Alcohol-related offences
