How to read the Airdrie rule during a storm

Before shovelling into a convenient pile, confirm the city’s placement rule and make sure the pile will not block a sidewalk, sightline or drainage path.

Multiple street frontages can create multiple sidewalk obligations. Commercial and mixed-use properties may be treated differently from detached homes.

Seasonal procedures are easy to change, so use the live municipal winter information during an active event.
