Dutch Elm Tree Survey
Economic Development, Investment and Trade, and Natural Resources
Subject: Manitoba Forestry and Peatlands Branch - Dutch Elm Disease and Elm Firewood Surveys/Invasive Forest Pest Monitoring
- Dutch elm disease (DED) surveys and emerald ash borer (EAB) monitoring are underway again this season in participating communities.
- Provincial inspectors will be driving or walking around both public and private properties to look for DED infected trees and elm firewood with bark attached. Elm firewood spreads DED and is illegal to store.
- Inspectors may be working in the evenings and on weekends.
- Inspectors wear high-visibility vests and government issued identification.
- Our staff may not approach every resident or house before entering onto properties to conduct inspections.
- Inspectors will ring doorbells or knock on doors prior to taking branch samples, marking DED infected trees, or marking elm firewood for removal under the Dutch elm disease management program and The Forest Health Protection Act.
- Emerald ash borer monitoring traps will be placed in areas throughout southern Manitoba.

Property Assessment Information Available Online
Property Assessment Information Available Online
Manitoba’s property assessment services are now digitally available. Property owners outside the City of Winnipeg can access their assessment notice by creating an account on the MyPropertyMB digital portal.
Through the portal, property owners have access to enhanced details of their property assessment, such as buildings assessed on their property, characteristics including building age, size, and features that impact the assessed value.
Property Assessment Services Branch has posted a MyPropertyMB logo on its website to inform property owners about its digital services. Manitoba Municipal and Northern Relations encourages all municipalities to include the MyPropertyMB logo and the link to the MyPropertyMB signup page on their website.
Use of this application over traditional mailing reduces assessment services costs for municipalities.
Detailed instructions on how to add the logo and link to your website are attached to this bulletin.
