VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – There have been some warnings issued, but no tickets for people not clearing the snow from pathways in front of their properties.
If you live in Coquitlam, Surrey, or Burnaby you get a warning and then an extended period of time before any ticket is issued.
Most cities work on a complaint basis. “[Burnaby] probably had about 10 to 15 complaints and basically the inspectors have responded and gone out to those,” says Leif Bjorseph with the City of Burnaby.
In Vancouver you get even more leeway. They issued 70 reminder notices, no warnings and no tickets.
If you live in Surrey, you have until 10 a.m. Friday to ensure the pathways are cleared.
