First snow storm of 2014 - how did you fare?

Overnight snow falls brought a flurry (geddit?!) of phone calls and emails to Jeff and Team Kitchissippi throughout today. Many people wrote in with comments and concerns about priorities, sidewalks that needed clearing and elderly people battling snow banks.

We are meeting with the City’s snow operations team next week about snow issues within the Ward, so if you have any systemic issues around plowing that have not already been passed on to us, please contact us as soon as possible. You can call us, email us, reply to this post, tweet, or send a note on Facebook.

If you have more immediate concerns about snow removal and dangerous snow banks, please call 311 first. Then, if you still have needs or questions, please do send us an e-mail at Office@KitchissippiWard.ca during business hours and we will do our best to assist.
