A City resident is voicing concern about potential disaster looming in the form of ice and snow hanging off the roof of City facilities.
Vern Garnett tells CHSJ News the dangerous combo is hanging off the roof of the City market at both the North and South Market street entrances.
He fears this ice falling on someone and causing serious injury.
The City responding to CHSJ News says they address issues on a case by case basis adding if snow and ice is overhanging at public building entrances, they use snow rakes or other means to alleviate the danger.
In some cases, areas may be cordoned off due to overhanging snow and ice if it is not practical to remove it.
Because of the snowfall, Staff are doing a review of public buildings today to assess any dangers of overhanging snow and ice and they will be dealt with on a case by case basis.
