The Acadian Peninsula Regional Service Commission was recently given the responsibility for the dog control service. This service includes, among other things, the enforcement of regulations, the picking of stray dogs and their care. The service may vary depending on municipality because of the different regulations in force. We encourage you to be familiar with the dog control regulations in your community.

More information on the Acadian Peninsula Regional Service Commission website.

The engineering department is responsible for new construction, painting of road lines, street lighting, land surveying and mapping, infrastructure planning, buildings, inspections, paving, heating, electricity, and sidewalks.

Since 2004, the firefighters of the Town of Caraquet and the Village of Bas-Caraquet have merged their brigades to maximize the efficiency of the services offered to the population and to share equipment. The fire station is located directly on St-Pierre Boulevard, at the very heart of the main street.
