The City of Dauphin and Manitoba Infrastructure are working on a new agreement for snow removal in the city.
The city currently plows provincial trunk highways 5A and 20A, which is a part of Main St, part of 2nd Ave NW, part of 1st Ave NE, and a part of River Ave for MI.
The main points in the new agreement are, MI will pay the city to clear off certain parts of the highway that enter Dauphin, they will pay the city a depending on how many centimetres of snow gets cleared, the city will follow safety and health obligations and move the snow to an approved snow disposal site.
The deal is still being worked on.
Bill Brenner expects it to be ready sometime in the New Year.
