The City of Lloydminster is launching a Positive Ticketing Program.
Residents of the Border City may soon find themselves receiving a ticket, for what the city calls “the right reasons”.
“Positive Ticketing is about shining a spotlight on the good happening every day in our community,” said Mayor Gerald Aalbers.
The program is in partnership with the city’s municipal enforcement department, Lloydminster Fire Department and RCMP.
Residents may be rewarded for positive actions such as helping a neighbour, using crosswalks properly, wearing safety gear or showing acts of kindness.
“By recognizing and celebrating positive choices, we’re not only encouraging safe and respectful behaviours, but also building stronger connections between residents and our enforcement and emergency services,” said Aalbers.
Each positive ticket includes a small reward from one of Lloydminster’s participating local businesses.
More information around the program can be found at Lloydminster.ca/PositiveTicket.
