While due to COVID-19 the Municipal Office remains closed to the public, we are still able to provide services. Please call us @ 807-935-2613 to find out how we can meet your needs.

Masks must be worn in the vestibule. Please do not come if you have any COVID-19 symptoms.

Both landfills are operating normal hours.
