Public Notice: By-Law 13.2022

PUBLIC NOTICE:

Click Link:  By-Law on Snow Removal Township of Ignace

Snow is on the way! Do Not Plow Your Snow Across the roadway!


Here are few Bylaws Ignace has that help keep our streets clean and safe:


Did you know that BY-LAW 13.2022, that addresses ‘Snow Removal Within the Township of Ignace’.
Section 4.1 states; “A person shall not place or permit snow to be placed from Private Property onto a highway or other Public or Private Property.” This includes ditches, right of ways, dead ends, and vacant Municipal Lots.
If found to be in contravention of this Bylaw you could be subjected to a $100 Set Fine (Sec. 4.1) on first offence and $200 Set Fine, on subsequent offences (Sec 5.5).
A reminder to keep vehicles parked off the streets when incoming weather and during the hours of 7:00AM-6:00PM from Nov 1st – Apr 30th as per Section 6.0. If violations occur, you could be subjected to a $100 fine for each day the violation occurs.
The Public Works department works hard to keep the streets and sidewalks clear. The snow, ice and wind rows left behind, from those who plow across the roads, now become an unacceptable liability for the Township and safety concern for travelling public. Vehicles parked on roadways and road allowance hinder snow removal and puts your vehicle at risk.
The Township will be enforcing this By-law throughout the 2025-2026 winter months and issuing citations/ fines for those that fail to adhere to By-Law 13.2022.
