Areas marked in green were finished, however area's marked in red were not. With the forecast calling for more rain over the next several days, we will wait to resume street sweeping until next week when the weather improves.

The Town of Drayton Valley will be flushing sanitary sewer mains in a few areas located in the southwest quadrant of Town (see attached maps).
Flushing mains shouldn't cause issues for anyone, but it can cause bubbling in toilets and can also drain the water out of the p-traps in your sink, shower, and floor drains.
Residents are advised to keep all toilet lids closed as a precaution, especially if you do not have a backflow preventer installed on your sewer line.
If you notice an unpleasant smell in your house, it is likely because your p-trap has been drained. A simple remedy to eliminate the smell is to pour some water down the drain and refill the trap. Flushing your toilet will often be sufficient to refill a p-trap as well.
Anyone with questions or concerns can call the Town at 780-514-2200.

We wish those in our community who follow the Buddhist path a Happy Vesak Day. "Vesak", the day of the full moon in the month of May, is the most sacred day to millions of Buddhists around the world. It was on the Day of Vesak two and a half millennia ago, in the year 623 B.C., that the Buddha was born. It was also on the Day of Vesak that the Buddha attained enlightenment, and it was on the Day of Vesak that the Buddha passed away in his eightieth year.
