Students from grade 4 and 8 of Cloud River Academy participated in the Municipal Awareness Day activities at the Town office. They were honorary Councillors for the day. They learned how the Town of Roddickton- Bide Arm make important decisions to ensure people have access to essential services and recreation. Our Councillors for the future did a great job!

The RCMP have been contacted in regard to garbage being dumped at the end of Bide Arm and around Town. Waste is collected weekly and the waste site is open Tuesday to Saturday for garbage. There are no excuses for the dumping of garbage in our community. Measures are being take to identify those person responsible.

Over the last couple of weeks the Town has received a number of complaints on speeding in the community.
As temperatures warm up, more children and residents are out and about walking, biking etc. There are speed limits posted in different areas because of the hazards. Whatever the reason, the speed limit applies to everyone regardless of the capability of the car or the experience of the driver. The number one priority is safety. The RCMP have been notified and are taking measures to enforce the speed limits in the community. Please reduce your speed!
