Gophers raising a stir in Westview neighbourhood
A property in Prince Albert’s Westview area has become a “holy ground” of sorts, and people who live in the area are digging for answers.
The property owned by Prince Albert Apostolic Church has become overrun with gopher holes. A nearby resident told paNOW the gophers have become a real nuisance adding children at a nearby daycare are tripping on the holes.
Because gophers are not covered under the City’s Responsible Pet Bylaw, city staff will not get involved. Kiley Bear, communications manager for the City of Prince Albert, told paNOW the city was in contact with the church and have provided contact information for local pest control services.
