We offer senior citizens (65 years of age and over) and residents with a physical disability a snow clearing service on municipal sidewalks and driveway windrows bordering single-family dwellings. It includes semi-detached, link housing and row housing in the urban areas of Bowmanville, Courtice, Orono, Newcastle Village and in the Hamlets of Bond Head, Newtonville, Tyrone, Leskard, Haydon, Kendal, Solina, Hampton, Burketon, Enniskillen and Maple Grove.
Snow clearing service for municipal sidewalks will start after a snowfall ends and only when there are more than five centimetres (about two inches) of snow on sidewalks.
Snow plows create windrows as they plow streets, often pushing snow so that it blocks driveways. The driveway windrow clearing service begins after we have plowed all municipal streets and when there is more than 15 centimetres (around six inches) of snow.

To qualify for this service, applicants must submit the fee of $86.45 ($76.50 + HST) with their application for the November to April season.
