Welcome to the official website of the Hanwell Local Service District, New Brunswick’s bedroom community, located along Route 640 known as the “Hanwell Road”.  Thank you for visiting the Hanwell LSD’s website!

The Hanwell Local Service District boundaries are basically from the city limits to Yoho Lake. It takes in a portion of Ludford Subdivision on one side and goes to New Maryland on the other side.

We have a population of approximately 3500. There are somewhere in the vicinity of 1500 families and 114 businesses.

We are one of the largest LSDs, with a tax base of over $250,000,000 million. To put that in perspective, our tax base is slightly larger than some other incorporated communities such as New Maryland, Grand Bay/ Westfield, and St. Andrews.

About Local Service District Advisory Committees

The Minister of the New Brunswick Department of the Environment and Local Government provides residents of the unincorporated areas of New Brunswick with a variety of services such as fire protection, solid waste collection and disposal, and street lighting. To assist the department in providing local services and to ensure the input of residents, the Municipalities Act provides for the election of Local Service District Advisory Committees.

These committees work closely with the Department’s regional Local Services Advisors by advising and consulting on local concerns. This important working relationship ensures the effective and cost efficient delivery of services to a large number of New Brunswick residents.
