Shovel Snow onto Town Roads !
We know there are many large amounts of snow heading for us this winter: however, please Do Not shovel your walkways onto Town Roads.
Town of Fairview Municipal Enforcement reminds you to check www.fairview.ca/bylaws-policies to review the bylaws
Placing snow onto streets creates a hazard to you, your neighbors, motorists, pedestrians, and to Public Works equipment operators.
Please DO NOT shovel snow onto
town roads.
DO NOT!

GARBAGE & RECYCLABLES COLLECTIONAll residential garbage and recyclables are collected on Wednesdays by Prairie Disposal’s automated collection system. Every residence has been allocated one black bin for household waste and one blue bin for recyclables. The bins are provided at no charge, however if a bin is lost or damaged, the resident will be responsible for the replacement cost. Place both bins on the street with wheels touching the curb, one metre of clearance between each bin and any other object, such as a vehicle.
What can go in the black garbage cart? Any bagged household garbage that you would normally place out for collection should be placed in the black cart. Absolutely no hazardous materials or loose garbage.
What if I can’t get all my garbage in the cart? The equivalent of three bags will fit in the cart. If your cart is overflowing (lid will not close), it will not be collected. Additional bags placed at the curb will be picked up if they have a “bag tag” sticker which can be purchased at the town office.
What can go in the blue recycling bin? Newsprint, heavy paper, mixed paper, box board, cardboard, rinsed food cans, rinsed beverage containers, hard plastics #1 to 7 and deposit items.
What should not go into my blue recycling bin? Plastic toys, bubble wrap, plastic bags/film, styrofoam, glass, ceramics, toxic items, electronics, small appliances, diapers, scrap metal or wood, food or yard waste, unrinsed food containers, soiled paper (used tissue or paper towel, pizza boxes smeared with cheese etc.), soiled containers.
Please remove your emptied bins from the street the same day.
This is crucial for both snow removal purposes and general
neighborhood courtesy.

Town Utility Bills
Your utility bills are mailed out at the beginning of each month (for the previous month’s consumption). New radio frequency meters have been installed in almost all of the households and businesses. You will receive an accurate monthly bill for actual consumption. After the actual reading, you will be charged the $2.95 per cubic meter for residential accounts and non-residential accounts.
In addition to the consumption rate for water you will be charged a flat rate for the Sewer service for residential and non-residential accounts. Our Capital Replacement fee has gone back to a flat monthly fee.
If your bill is exceedingly high, check your toilet(s), faucets, humidifiers, icemakers and outdoor taps for leaks.
We are pleased to offer our residents the option of paperless billing. This means that you would receive an email copy of your bill each month instead of the paper copy in the mail. As an incentive to sign-up for this service, there is currently a $5 credit on your first utility bill upon signing up.
To avoid the dreaded “Blue Note” we also have a preauthorized payment plan that debits your account on the 20th of each month. This debit can only be from a valid bank account. This saves you from forgetting to pay your bill by the end of the month.
The current utility bylaw may be viewed online at www.fairview.ca

FAIRVIEW/CLEAR HILLS EARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT COALITION
EARLY DEVELOPMENT INSTRUMENT
The Early Development Instrument (EDI) is a standardized tool that measures the development of five year old children based on children’s social, emotional, physical and intellectual development. Across the province of Alberta since 2009 and 2013, kindergarten teachers evaluated over 70,000 children. The results of this survey can be found online at www.ecmap.ca
Nearly 29 percent of kindergarten aged children in Alberta are experiencing difficulty in one or more of these five developmental domains. In the Fairview/Clearhills region 35 percent of our kindergarten children are experiencing difficulty.
As part of our ongoing commitment to the children of Fairview/ Clear Hills, we are sharing information that will help in your understanding which activities will help your child’s development, as well as advise of community programming within our communities while showing the developmental domains associated with each program via symbolization. Where you see the symbols listed above the programming you will understand the domain they are primarily focused on.
DEVELOPMENTAL DOMAINS
Physical Health & Well-Being:Encouraging physical growth and independence, gross and fine motor skills and coordination.
Social Competence:Encouraging playing well with others, curiosity about the world, respect for adults and other children, behavior and following rules/instructions, independence, self-confidence and eagerness to explore new things.
Emotional Maturity:Encouraging age-appropriate emotional understanding, empathy, reflection, controlled actions (thinking before doing).
Language & Thinking:Encouraging reading, writing, classification of shapes, numbers, colours, size and concepts.
Communication Skills & General Knowledge:Encouraging open communication of needs and wants in a socially appropriate way, storytelling and an appropriate awareness of the outside world.
If you have any questions, please call the Fairview Early Childhood Development Coalition at 780.835.2544
