Kudos from Arnprior Fire Chief Jeff Crawford to those Town residents that clear neighbourhood fire hydrants after a snowfall.
There’s no reward- other than the thank-you that’s included in our news story- and the knowledge that you could potentially be saving a life.
Crawford says yes, clearing hydrants is officially part of municipal crews’ snow-removal duties, but a helping hand from residents can sure speed the process along.
The chief has provided a picture of a perfectly-cleared hydrant, and the example is posted on our website.
