PARKING, SNOW DEPOSIT AND
SUMP DISCHARGE ON
COUNTY OF LENNOX AND ADDINGTON
ROADS AND BRIDGES

The public is advised that County of Lennox and Addington By-Law No. 2697/98 regulates and requires the removal of items obstructing, encumbering, injuring or fouling County roads and bridges. The parking of vehicles, depositing of snow and discharging of sumps on County roads and bridges during winter months are examples of actions prohibited under this by-law. Section 181 of the Highway Traffic Act further prohibits the deposit of snow and ice on a roadway.

Vehicles parked on County roads present a safety hazard and interfere with snow clearing operations.

The depositing of snow or discharging of sumps onto County roads often results in icing conditions and obstructions which create another safety hazard for both motorists and pedestrians.

The County of Lennox and Addington therefore requests your compliance with these regulations. Your cooperation will assist us in maintaining safer road conditions during the winter months and is greatly appreciated.

To Residents and Property Owners Regarding Noxious Weeds

The purpose of the Weed Control Act, R.S.O. 1990, is to reduce the impact of noxious weeds on the industries of agriculture and horticulture. Primarily this act applies to agricultural and horticultural lands that generate income or other benefits to agriculture; this excludes lawns, gardens and private areas for personal enjoyment and leisure.  Under the Weed Control Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter W.5 Sections 3, 13, 16, and 18, you are requested to destroy all noxious weeds on your property. 

Failure to comply with the Weed Control Act may result in the municipality entering lands to have the weeds destroyed and costs may be recovered through tax billings as provided for in the Act.

Broadband is coming to Eastern Ontario with the help of the Eastern Ontario Wardens Caucus Inc. and the financial support of the federal and provincial governments along with the private sector.

The Eastern Ontario Regional Network’s (EORN) goal is to bring higher speeds and bandwidth to at least 95% of homes and businesses in Eastern Ontario, a majority of which will gain internet speeds of up to 10 Mbps.
