ROADSIDE MOWING DURING A FIRE RESTRICTION

July 22 2024

When the County of Paintearth issues a Fire Restriction this also means that the Roadside Mowing Program will be affected. The County recognizes that due to the high heat and dry conditions the possibility of starting a fire from our mowers is a big concern. Roadside mowing will now be running on reduced hours of operation. In an effort to minimize the fire hazard, our roadside mowers will not be mowing past 1:00 pm. This will remain in effect for as long as the fire restriction is in place.

If you have any questions regarding this please contact Jeff Cosens, Director of Environmental Services at (403) 882-3211 or email him at jcosens@countypaintearth.ca
