Leaves & Brush
Do you have a pile of loose leaves on the boulevard near your cottage? Some property owners did not bag their leaves although we certainly thank the many who did and we continue to strongly encourage bagging if you rake your leaves. If we could get the community to help put those loose leaves into bags for pick up that would be very much appreciated by our Public Works team and your neighbours. Is there a brush pile left near your property? If so, please note that By-Law #1509 states that leaves and clean brush from deadfall only can be put out on the road allowances between May 1 and June 17 and again between September 2 and October 14, 2013. Dumping at any other time is illegal. Check your yellow 2013 Information for Residents Card for further information. If there is building debris, broken furniture or appliances in the pile and it’s yours or your neighbour’s, please arrange to have it hauled away at your expense.
Banks & Cliffs
A reminder that leaves, grasses, brush or garbage should never be dumped over the fragile cliffs and banks in our municipality. Preserving the integrity of the banks is a community responsibility. Allowing trees, bushes and natural grasses to grow on our banks will help to further protect them. Use the stairs provided to access the beaches and do not store boats, chairs or other items on the eroding banks. Penny McMorris, Councillor
