Caledonia Nordic Ski Club calls on City Council for sweeping help

Prince George City Council will discuss a request for support from the Caledonia Nordic Ski Club.

On the agenda for Monday’s meeting is a request from the club to have the City help sweep the newly paved trails at the site.

“At this time, while the trail construction is complete and the surface is ready for use, we have not yet acquired specialized equipment for regular maintenance,” a letter from the club reads.

“To ensure the trail remains clear of debris and meets the expectations of our national sport partners, we are requesting temporary support from the City of Prince George in form of access to your sidewalk clearing machines.”

The letter states this would likely be on an as-needed basis during key booking periods.

According to a staff report to Council, the estimated cost of one sweep of the paved trail network would be approximately $1,100.

The staff report doesn’t have a recommendation attached to approve or deny the service request, but is being presented to Council for their information.

Other items to be discussed on Monday’s meeting is the reinstatement of Public Notice advertisements in the Prince George Citizen, and potential resolutions to be forwarded to the Union of BC Municipalities.

The full agenda for Monday’s meeting is here.
