Off-Road Vehicles
At the Town of Innisfil, we understand that using vehicles can be a fun and exciting way to spend time outdoors. Our Parks By-law, ATV (All Terrain Vehicle) By-law and Snowmobiles By-law regulate vehicle usage in Town to keep our community and natural spaces safe, beautiful and enjoyable for you and your family.
