As part of our ongoing commitment to the children of Fairview/Clearhills, we are sharing information that will help in your understanding what activities will help your child s development, as well as advise of programming in our communities with one or more of the developmental domains in mind.

12 Town Utility Bills Your utility bills are mailed out at the beginning of each month (for the previous month s consumption). New radio frequency meters have been installed in almost all of the households and businesses. You will receive an accurate monthly bill for actual consumption. After the actual reading, you will be charged $2.95 per cubic meter for residential accounts and non-residential accounts. In addition to the consumption rate for water you will be charged a flat rate for the Sewer service for residential and non-residential accounts. Our Capital Replacement fee has gone back to a flat monthly fee. If your bill is exceedingly high, check your toilet(s), faucets, humidifiers, icemakers and outdoor taps for leaks. We are pleased to offer our residents the option of paperless billing. This means that you would receive an copy of your bill each month instead of the paper copy in the mail. As an incentive to sign-up for this service, there is currently a $5 credit on your first utility bill upon signing up. To avoid the dreaded Blue Note we also have a preauthorized payment plan that debits your account on the 20th of each month. This debit can only be from a valid bank account. This saves you from forgetting to pay your bill by the end of the month. The current utility bylaw may be viewed online at 12

Please note that these bylaws are applicable year-round, but are enforced more strictly in the winter due to snow clearing operations, narrower roadways and more hazardous road conditions. Shovel Snow onto Town Roads! We know there are many large amounts of snow heading for us this winter: however, please Do Not shovel your walkways onto Town Roads. Town of Fairview Municipal Enforcement reminds you to check to review the bylaws Placing snow onto streets creates a hazard to you, your neighbors, motorists, pedestrians, and to Public Works equipment operators. Please DO NOT shovel snow onto town roads. 23

27 GARBAGE & RECYCLABLES COLLECTION All residential garbage and recyclables are collected on Wednesdays by Prairie Disposal s automated collection system. Every residence has been allocated one black bin for household waste and one blue bin for recyclables. The bins are provided at no charge, however if a bin is lost or damaged, the resident will be responsible for the replacement cost. Place both bins on the street with wheels touching the curb, one metre of clearance between each bin and any other object, such as a vehicle. What can go in the black garbage cart? Any bagged household garbage that you would normally place out for collection should be placed in the black cart. Absolutely no hazardous materials or loose garbage. What if I can t get all my garbage in the cart? The equivalent of three bags will fit in the cart. If your cart is overflowing (lid will not close), it will not be collected. Additional bags placed at the curb will be picked up if they have a bag tag sticker which can be purchased at the town office. What can go in the blue recycling bin? Newsprint, heavy paper, mixed paper, box board, cardboard, rinsed food cans, rinsed beverage containers, hard plastics #1 to 7 and deposit items. What should not go into my blue recycling bin? Plastic toys, bubble wrap, plastic bags/film, styrofoam, glass, ceramics, toxic items, electronics, small appliances, diapers, scrap metal or wood, food or yard waste, unrinsed food containers, soiled paper (used tissue or paper towel, pizza boxes smeared with cheese etc.), soiled containers. Please remove your emptied bins from the street the same day. This is crucial for both snow removal purposes and general neighborhood courtesy. 27
