City councillors in New Westminster and Surrey are calling for a Metro Vancouver ``snow summit,'' with the threat of another storm on the way.
Daniel Fontaine of New Westminster and Linda Annis in Surrey want representatives from the province, Metro Vancouver, first responders, road maintenance contractors, and municipalities to meet and find ways to avoid the chaos caused by a snowstorm last month.
The November storm led to crashes that blocked off major roads, took out power for nearly 10,000 BC Hydro customers and led to a plane skidding off a taxiway at the Vancouver International Airport.
Fontaine and Annis say they have reached out to the transportation minister and the chair of Metro Vancouver's regional district but have not heard back.
