Snow and Ice Management for the City of Fernie
In 2019 the City of Fernie began a review of it's snow management services. After identifying areas for improving our service, we launched a Snow Pilot Program in February 2020.
Throughout the pilot we trialed a prioritization approach to snow clearing, providing consistent access to critical infrastructure and emergency services. We listened to your feedback, took notes, and gathered critical data to make informed, defensible, and transparent decisionsaround resources and snow management budgeting.
We've taken what we learned and observed from the Operational Pilot, and on November 22, 2021 brought forward options for Council to consider based on the pilot and best-practices from other communities.
Thank you to everyone who took part in providing input into this service area. We're now formalizing the program and moving forward based on what we learned from you, our operators, and research across snow communities in Western Canada.
