Happy Easter Westsiders!

April is Community
Clean Up Month
The RDCO will provide supplies and pickup of litter filled bags for those doing cleanup events so long as participants have committed to following current public heath guidelines related to COVID-19. This includes, but not limited to, proper social distancing, wearing mask, proper hand washing etc.

Pick an area to clean, outside your home or in your neighbourhood. Then contact the Regional Waste Reduction Office to register. They supply the garbage bags, gloves and other safety equipment you'll need. Then pick up the litter in your area and call them when you're done. They will pick up the bags and take them to the landfill. Anyone can participate, any time of the year!

To register for the Community Clean Up simply email the Regional Waste Reduction Office (recycle@rdco.com) or call at 250-469-6250.

FireSmartBC is your complete resource for keeping your home, neighbourhood and community prepared for wildfires. As fires have increased in B.C. in the past decade, the need for preventative measures has never been greater.

The best thing about being FireSmart is how easy it is. The homes that are prepared are the homes left standing. Thankfully, there are simple steps you can take to drastically reduce your property's risk.
