Happy Spring Victoria Hills Neighbours!
There are a few things we can do around our homes to avoid issues caused by rapid ice melting, and localized flooding during spring melt. Keep your foundation and window wells of snow buildup, cycle your sump pump once a month, keep storm water drains clear of blockages and ensure your downspouts drain at least 1 metre away from your foundation to your lawn or garden, not the sidewalk or street. Find more info and tips at: kitchener.ca, keyword search 'Stormwater management'.
Join me at my next "Meet with Margaret" for an informal chat at the Victoria Hills Community Centre on Wednesday, March 8 from 6-7 pm.
Your Victoria Hills Neighbourhood Association (VHNA) has been working hard to bring fun and exciting new programs to the Victoria Hills Community Centre (VHCC) this spring!. A great big 'thank you' to the members and volunteers for making these programs possible. To register for programs online visit ActiveNET or call the registration line at: 519-741-2382.
Watch for VHNA's Annual Community Clean-up Day coming this spring. Garbage bags and gloves will be provided. Round up your family, friends and join the Vic Hills team to help keep our neighbourhood clean and beautiful.
Please contact me with any questions or concerns you may have at: councillor.johnston@kitchener.ca, or call me at 519-741-2796.
Sincerely,
Councillor Margaret Johnston, Ward 8
