Winter Parking and Snow Removal
Overnight parking of motor vehicles on municipal roadways is prohibited during winter months (from 2:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m., November 15th to March 15th) and is an offence punishable by a fine.
It is an offence under the Highway Traffic Act to push snow onto any roadway. Snow must be placed on your own property, not on neighbouring properties or pushed across the street. Frozen snow piles create a hazard for motorized vehicles.
We thank you for your consideration to this matter.
Boulevard and Park Trees
The Town is fortunate in having many fine trees throughout the Town, both young and old. All trees that are on the boulevards and in parks are the property of the Town of Goderich. If you wish to have your tree trimmed or removed, please contact the Town Hall at 519-524-7308.
Unfortunately, some residents have been trimming these trees and in some cases have ruined them. It is in violation of By-Law #76 of 89 to trim or cut Town owned trees and is a criminal offence.
If any residents wish trees planted on their boulevard in front of their business or residence, please watch for the ad that will be placed in the Signal Star sometime during the spring. These trees are supplied at no cost.

Parks Garbage Containers
Garbage containers are placed in parks and on streets for the convenience of the taxpayers and parks users to help reduce litter throughout the Town. These containers are not meant for depositing household waste.
Depositing household waste in these containers is in violation of By-Law #1 of 1996. Anyone found depositing household waste in these containers will be dealt with accordingly.
