Thank you to everyone who nominated someone for the Volunteer of the Year. We had four excellent nominations, all deserving of the award. The Award will be presented at 8:30 p.m., December 13th, 2024 at the Allan & District Communiplex at the Allan Flames Hockey Game.
SNOW Removal
It is now past the time to get the campers and RVs removed from streets to make snow removal effective. Please have these put away as soon as possible, Council is considering towing any vehicle left on roadways in excess of 72 hours. With our heavy snow load, vehicles have caused problems with snow removal. We request you move vehicles and trailers to off street parking, especially after a snowfall. Snow removal policy is Main Street, School Area, Fire Hall and Post Office followed by residential streets, and lastly, back lanes.

Remember that we have a clean up section in the Animal Control bylaw, so please pick up after your pets. Pet licenses are required to be renewed in January.
