Public Works Notices

The Utilities Department will begin its annual fire hydrant and water main flushing program on Wednesday, September 24, 2025, running for approximately six weeks, Monday to Friday, 8 am to 4:30 pm.

The current schedule is as follows:

  • September 24 - October 1 - Two and Three Mile Flat

We'll post updates with specific locations and dates throughout the program.

Hydrant and water main flushing cause turbidity in the City’s water system. Residents should expect and be prepared for discoloured water. If you experience this, leave a cold water tap, such as a bathtub faucet, running until the water returns to normal.

If you would like more information, you can contact the Utilities Department at 250-992-6330. Thank you for your cooperation during this important annual maintenance program.
