Winter Maintenance in Morinville

Report a Concern

During high volume times when snow clearing activities are taking place, the quickest and most efficient way to report a concern is by visiting morinville.ca/report-a-concern on our website. Concerns will be reviewed in the order that they are submitted and automatically placed in level of priority.

Property Flags

Flags are placed on private property to ensure visibility of snow-covered objects during snow clearing events. Flags must be left in place for the entirety of the winter season.

Waste Collection Days

Should snow clearing occur on the same day as curbside waste collection, residents must place their carts and blue bags in the center of their driveway (30 cm or 1 foot from the end). Carts cannot be on the road, sidewalk or in the gutter during snow clearing.

Homeowner’s Responsibility

Sand

Free sand is available to Morinville residents. A wooden box is located outside the fenced area at the Meunier Maintenance Building (10310 107 Street). Pail and shovel are required.

72 HOURS

Snow and ice must be cleared from sidewalks bordering residential property within 72-hours of a snow event. Non-residential sidewalks must be cleared within 48-hours.

Shovelling snow into the street is not permitted. This contributes to unsafe driving conditions and leads to an overall cost increase to road maintenance.

No Parking Zones

If there is a hydrant near your home, please clear a path a minimum clearance of 1 metre for emergency access.

Vehicles that are not removed by 7 a.m. in areas marked for snow removal will be ticketed and towed. Vehicles that remain parked on streets during snow clearing events will slow down operations and unnecessarily cost taxpayers extra money.

Snow service levels are set by Morinville’s Snow and Ice Control Policy.

When is snow removal actioned?
