CENTRAL ALGOMA COMMUNITY SAFETY AND WELLBEING Under the Police Services Act 1990, Municipalities were legislated to develop and adopt a Community Safety and Wellbeing (CWSB) plan. The preliminary plan identifies key community priorities and preliminary strategies for addressing community concerns with safety and wellbeing. It is a living document that will evolve as partners and residents of each municipality collaborate and work together to better understand the needs of our communities. Community engagement will continue to form an integral part of our CACSWB plan, so we can continue to “LIVE*GROW*THRIVE” together as communities and municipalities.
WATER RESTRICTION NOTICE With immediate effect, restrictions have been put in place on the use of water outside of any building within all areas of the town and the township serviced by the water distribution system.  Failure to adhere to these restrictions could result in penalty as provided in the Provincial Offences Act.  It may also result in a complete ban on the external use of water. Thank you for your co-operation.
