Council Tells Residents to Take a Walk

The Town of Ste. Anne has invested $30,000 into a walking path by Seine River Crossing. Work has progressed fairly quickly and according to a recent Facebook post, the project is almost complete. Funding for the project was diverted from the Ball Diamond Drainage Restoration budget. Council had set aside $50,000 for that project and only $4,000 was dispersed.

New Recycling Collection Info How to place your recycling cart for collection…

- Set all carts at the curb by 7 am.

- Place your cart with the back wheels towards the curb or at the edge of the road; close lid.

- Point your cart - the cart lid opens towards the centre of the road or lane.

- Space your cart - leave one arm’s length clearance (one meter or 39 inches) on all sides of each cart.

This is to allow the collection truck enough room to grab your cart.

- Look up - avoid placing your cart under hydro or telephone wires, basketball hoops, awning and tree limbs.

- In Winter - clear snow away from the area around and under where you place your cart at the curb or lane. Do not place carts behind or on top of snow banks; clear snow and ice off lids so they will open easily when emptied.

These items are NOT accepted with your recycling…

- Napkins, paper towels and food soiled cardboard – put these in your organic bin.

- Textiles and other items that can be re-used.

- Plastic items not labeled #1–7 or

large plastic products.

- Diapers and personal hygiene products.

- Ceramics, glassware and house wares.
