The subject of sidewalk snow removal came up during Tuesday’s regular meeting of Antigonish Town Council.
During the meeting, council repealed its former ice and snow removal by-law. Town CAO Randy Delorey explained council in the past discussed snow removal around parking meters and banks built up between the curb and sidewalk.
Even without a policy on hand, Delorey noted staff began removing those snow banks along Main Street. In the absence of a policy, Delorey explained staff will monitor and make decisions about when those snow banks need to be removed until a policy is put in place.
