These measures are based on the information we currently have. They may change if the situation continues to develop.
EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTRE
The Municipal Emergency Operations Centre (COUM) is now activated at level 2. Its mandate is to coordinate the continuity of essential services and support the public health mission to reduce the propagation curve of COVID-19.
FACILITIES AND ACTIVITIES
Following the recommendation of the Chief Medical Officer of Health of the province to not have groups of more than 10 people and to respect the social distance of 6 feet (2 metres), all our recreational facilities (except our neighbourhood parks and trails) are closed to the public until further notice.
City Hall, the Operations Centre and both fire halls are also closed to the public. City Hall staff will continue to work from home. You can contact us during normal business hours by calling 877.7900 or emailing info@dieppe.ca

We continue to provide essential services such as the drinking water supply, water and sewer maintenance, waste collection, snow removal, fire protection service and more. Steps have been taken to protect the health of employees while continuing to provide essential services to our residents.
