SANITATIONBecause we are on a septic system, care must be taken on what is flushed. No peelings, non-biodegradable paper products, plastics, personal hygiene products or cat litter allowed. These, among other non-sewage items cause major repairs which will be reflected in higher pad fees to pay for the damage.
Please observe the basics to
preserve our system.

cannot be answered at that meeting. If you have such questions, please
contact the Director or the President prior to the meeting. You then will
have an answer at the next meeting.

* WILDLIFE IN THE PARK *
(No not the parties after dark)
Please DO NOT FEED the wildlife.This includes cats & dogs.
This attracts animals that are food for other animals such as
coyotes, cougars & bears. Always be aware of what’s around you when out for a
walk.
2010 PROPERTY TAX ASSESSMENTS
have nothing to do with the Matsqui First Nations. The time to
appeal is clearly outlined on the back of the Assessment form. The Tax Notice is based on that Assessment . If you don’t appeal in January 2010 then
you are out of luck. You can ONLY appeal the Assessment - NOT the Tax Notice
when it arrives later.DO NOT CALL THE MATSQUI BAND OFFICE
– THEY CANNOT HELP YOU.
Due to animals roaming the Park at night, please ensure
that your garbage is in a sealed container & placed
curbside on the morning of the pick-up.
NO DUMPING
Our green spaces are NOT dumping grounds for trimmings
and other garbage. It attracts vermin and creates more work for
our landscape volunteers to clean up.
