C&D Site Scale Replacement
- Created: Thursday, 02 June 2022 11:38
On Monday, June 6, work will begin on the installation of a new weight scale at our C&D Site (landfill). We anticipate this work to take 1-2 weeks.
During this time, we will not be accepting any disposal of demolitions, disposal of non-sorted material or disposal from non-residents as we will not have access to a scale and the entrance to our site will be congested.
Our goal is to keep the site open for general use by our residents however, we may at some point be forced to close the site completely for a short period of time. If this is required, we will provide notice to the public as soon as possible.
We ask that you use caution if you plan to visit the beach and we apologize for any inconveniences this work may cause.
