How quickly must Coquitlam sidewalks be cleared?

The City says owners and occupants must clear snow and ice from sidewalks bordering their property within 10 hours of every snowfall. Check the City's official Winter Wise and boulevard-maintenance information for current requirements.

Why does elevation change a Coquitlam snow contract?

Higher and lower areas can experience different precipitation, accumulation and pavement temperatures during the same system. Trigger conditions, staging and revisit timing should be based on the actual property rather than one citywide assumption.

Why does a parkade ramp need a refreeze check?

Water and compressed slush move downhill and collect at the bottom transition or trench drain. That moisture can freeze after the main clearing is complete, especially on shaded concrete.

Is de-icing automatically included with plowing?

Only when the scope says so. The quote should identify treatment zones, triggers, approved products and whether the material is included or billed separately.
