Stacks of blue fencing materials on a construction site with mountains in the background.

Village staff have received some questions and comments about blue fencing, spring clean-up, and construction activities in the Village. Here’s some clarification from the Manager of Municipal Operations:

  • Some people are tired of seeing the blue fencing in the Village, but it is still needed for construction areas.
  • The purpose of the fencing is to secure building materials and open excavation sites, not to fence off personal property.
  • To allow for construction activities in laneways, keep fencing a couple of feet back from the property line.
  • If there is garbage around the fencing on your property, please clean it up.
  • Be respectful if you have a cement truck on your property. Do not wash the truck on public property or your neighbour’s property.
