Skating Rinks are ready for use

Skating Rinks at Miner’s Memorial Park and Imperial Meadows are now ready for use. Snow will be shoveled off when the public works guys have time, but it is recommended you bring a shovel to clean off the surface after a snow fall if you’d like to use the facilities.

A huge thank you to the Coalhurst Fire Department for helping us flood the rinks!

Ice Rink Flooding

Within the next few weeks, RCMP will begin “Operation Cold start”. A uniformed officer in a marked vehicle will be going around the community looking for idling vehicles and checking to see if they are locked/unlocked and leaving this flyer on their windshield.

Reminder: Protect Your Basement With Downspout Extension

Protect Your Basement With Downspout Extensions

The importance of downspout extensions can not be overstated. The following illustrations show how storm water can infiltrate the foundation of your home if your downspout extensions are not in place, and how stormwater has the potential to damage your building foundation, enter your basement and cause your sump pump to run more often (if your property has a sump pump).

If your home has weeping tile, you do want to prevent water from getting to the weeping tile as the water may enter other parts of the foundation if the weeping tile gets overloaded or plugged with silt/debris.  Some older homes may have weeping tile tied into the sanitary sewer system, this can be costly for wastewater treatment of storm water.

The Town of Coalhurst Utility Bylaw #319-06 states that extensions must be installed on downspouts to a minimum of 2 meters (6 feet). Protect your home and the town sanitary sewer system by insuring that your downspouts carry water away from your foundation.

For more information on drainage and flood prevention, see “The Handbook for Reducing Basement Flooding” in the Utilities and Services section on the Town of Coalhurst web site at www.coalhurst.ca  or contact the Town of Coalhurst at 403-381-3033.
