"Right now it's up to the whim of the

The talk on the streets has been about the
snowy sidewalks even though he hasn't had
any complaints himself, says town elark. Jim
Crocker.
"It's difficult to navigate When the setovias

Mr. Crocker is now receiving draft bylaws
from other municipalities about sidewalk

the matter further and possibly pass its own
bylaw for Seaforth.
