This winter, there are a few things to remember to help keep each other safe:
- No parking on any Town road or highway between the hours of 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. starting November 15th and running until April 15th. The set fine for this offence is $90.00. As per the Parking Bylaw (Bylaw 2000-12 as amended). Vehicles parked or left unattended on Town roads that interfere with snow removal equipment may be tagged and towed away to storage.
- No depositing snow or ice on a highway. The set fine for this offence is $250 as per the Parking Bylaw (Bylaw 2000-12 as amended).
- When the roadways are being ploughed, it is impossible not to block or deposit snow on private driveways. It is the owner's responsibility to clear the snow from their driveway entrances.
Your co-operation and assistance help to reduce snow removal costs. We endeavour to minimize costs in snow ploughing, sanding and salting the roads while maintaining an acceptable level of service.
Your valued assistance this winter will help the Roads Department provide efficient and cost-effective winter maintenance service. It will also help keep you, your neighbours, and your community safer.
