Preventing Melt Water Damage

Spring is around the corner and the snow is melting fast.  To prevent damage from melt water, homeowners are encouraged to take action to protect their own property.  Plan how to divert melt water away from buildings and keep that path clear. Sandbags can help direct water if needed. Residents with a valid street occupancy permit (no fee) are encouraged to dump snow at the municipal snow dump to reduce the risk of melt water damage. City of Kimberley crews will only be addressing melt water concerns on city property.
