The City is experiencing a connectivity issue that is impacting all city phones. We are working diligently to resolve the issue and the City will post an update as soon as the problem is fixed. Emergency services are still available by dialing 9-1-1.
With snow in the forecast, it’s time to start thinking of winter safety. When it comes to driving, that means: be prepared and slow down. The City of Ferndale Public Works Department, which is responsible for city street maintenance, prepares for snow and ice and monitors winter weather conditions around the clock. If there is a snow event this weekend, the city will follow standard procedure to keep our priority routes clear so emergency services can move throughout the city. Here’s how you can help:
🚫 Stay off the roads if you can.
⚠️ Go slow. If you must drive, give yourself plenty of space and take it slow. It will be slippery, especially as things freeze and refreeze overnight.
🚗 If you are parked on the street, please move your car so our snow plows (Golden Eagle, Plowtallica, SanderYacht, and Jam On) can safely navigate your street.

City crews will be conducting their annual water main flush starting this week and is anticipated to be completed by early April. Work will typically take place between 7:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. on weekdays. Water main flushing cleans the mains of mineral deposits that build up naturally inside pipe walls. This is an important part of maintaining our water infrastructure and provides a cleaner, more reliable water supply to your home or business.
While the flush program is taking place, the City will do everything possible to minimize any negative influence on the water system. It is not uncommon for the flushing activity to cause temporary discoloration of the water. If the water in your residence is discolored, run a cold water tap in the bathtub for a few minutes and this should clear the lines in your house. Water customers should not wash white clothes or use their hot water taps when crews are flushing in their area as mineral deposits may stain white laundry.
