Viking Mayor resigns

KILLAM & DISTRICT sents re p E C R E M M O C F O R CHAMBE

2023

Patricia Harcourt Editor

Laura Yakiwchuk has resigned as Viking’s mayor after less than a year and a half in office following a period of dissension with the rest of council.

Viking Town Council issued a statement that Yakiwchuk had officially resigned her mayoral seat at 11 a.m. as of Thursday, May 25.

“Council and town administration continue with regular operations,” said Deputy Mayor Jaime Buttner, who has been appointed to chair town council meetings going forward. “We will be sharing more information as it becomes available.”

Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Doug Lefsrud says that council intends to discuss the implications of the resignation at the June 19 regular meeting of Viking Council. That would include issues including holding a nomination day or by-election to fill the now vacant mayor’s chair.

“Currently, Deputy Mayor Buttner will be our council’s leader and will continue to be the council’s meeting chairman,” says CAO Lefsrud, in accordance with a motion made Continued on Page 13

JOHN’S RANT It’s over, let’s get down to governing Well that’s over with.

After several weeks of campaigning, Albertans spoke clearly on May 29 and said they wanted the UCP to continue governing this province.

Many pundits said it was a hard fought campaign with NDP leader Rachel Notley and UCP Leader Danielle Smith sparring over issues such as education and healthcare.

Actually to me it was more a battle of which leader did you trust more and how much BS could one side sling against the other.

Throughout most of the campaign, polls of various types showed the race would be close coming down to battleground Calgary to decide the champion.

So now it’s over. A UCP majority.

It was a vote against the NDP, who refused to discuss their record from when they were the government.

Albertans remembered that time and didn’t want to go through it again.

Now, will Rachel Notley take a walk in the woods and tell her union buddies she’s done?

Who will replace her?

Well, some have speculated that one or two of her former cabinet colleagues could take a shot at the top job.

I rather doubt that

because one of the NDP’s primary weaknesses in this last election was the lack of strength of its candidates.

Woke lefties rallying on about defunding the police, or wanting to spend more money that they can only get from additional taxation, or those who have proudly marched in Communist parades and speak highly of communist regimes are not the people I would want to see leading the party.

But former Calgary mayor Naheed Nenshi came out loudly supporting Notley last week.

In his early 50s, he has an ego large enough to seek the party leadership.

It would be interesting to see how his decisive style would clash with the NDP head honcho Jagmeet Singh.

But Nenshi turned Calgary sharply to the left, raised business taxes driving business out of the city and did all those neat things socialists like to do. Plus he has name recognition.

Perhaps north Edmontonian Thomas Lukaszuk may turn from a career in gaslighting to take a shot at the NDP leadership.

He has certainly turned away from being a conservative and he would likely cave to the direction Singh would want

him to take.

Yes, he would be a disaster for Alberta so maybe he’d be a strong leadership contender for the NDP. I wonder if the NDP will speak with all media outlets now the election is over?

And now that Danielle Smith has been given a mandate by Albertans, will the provincial mainstream media try to work with her or will they continue to bash her much in the way U.S media demonizes everything Donald Trump does?

Please note: Danielle Smith is not Donald Trump.

Will we see some of the recommendations of the fair deal panel resurrected? Some such as a provincial pension plan and a provincial police force were scuttled for the election, but now they could resurface and face serious discussion among Albertans.

Will we get a government that promotes responsible, practical economic polices, or one that promotes victimization and delights in calling Albertans systematic racists similar to what our Federal Liberal government does.

And will we now have a strong government willing to stand up to the Feds, who want to intrude into our jurisdic-

tion wherever they please.

The UCP has been given a mandate of four years. Use these four years wisely but respect all Albertans.

Be transparent to Albertans.

Smith has a good squad from which to choose a cabinet. Make it a smaller cabinet based on governing effectively and efficiently. Continue to reduce red tape.

JOHN MATHER

EDITORIAL Soon to be left with nothing?

I recently heard someone say, what if you choose Amazon over local stores, they all go out of business, and then Amazon changes or goes away? What are you left with? Nothing.

It got me thinking. I have a similar question. What happens when you choose Facebook over your local newspaper, but then Facebook goes away? What are you left with? Nothing.

Some see ditching print for Facebook as hip or savvy. But recent studies have shown declining Facebook usage worldwide, with younger generations in particular losing interest in the platform.

Only 27 per cent of millennials — or specifically those between ages 25 to 38 — used Facebook last year, a steep fall from 48.6 per cent in 2017, according to a report on social media users by generation released by the KISD Institute. “The majority of Facebook users now are those in their 50s. Even teenagers who previously have been using Messenger are looking for alternatives.”

Is it possible you’re going all-in on the next Myspace?

Your local paper’s numbers meanwhile have held strong through the pandemic to today. We haven’t sacrificed quality, outsourced staff to a city hundreds of miles away, converted our paper into a miniscule pamphlet full of outdated national news the way the corporate owned dailies have.

We work and live in the community. We still support and cover your events and associations.

That all goes away if local events and groups continue to stop advertising and relying on declining Facebook and word-of-mouth.

Make no mistake, this area will die if we all stop supporting each other.

Then, when social media habits change or cease, we’ll find ourselves lost and less connected than ever. Left with nothing.

Lovely celebrates re-election, to get more involved in local issues John Mather Staff Reporter

In an Alberta election that seemed to drag on for as long as results merely trickled in from Elections Alberta, Camrose constituency quickly had UCP candidate Jackie Lovely declared the winner.

Lovely was declared by shortly after 10 p.m. when polling showed her leading NDP candidate Richard Bruneau 12,575 votes to 5,545 with 23 of 25 polls reporting.

Lovely was first elected to the Legislature in the 2019 election.

She has served as a Parliamentary Secretary, Associate Minister for the Status of Women, on Premier’s Council on Charities and Civil Societies, on the Public Accounts Committee and was chair of the Standing Committee on Families and Communities.

“I’m just so grateful to all the people who stepped up to help with the campaign,” said Lovely shortly after being declared the winner.

“And I really want to thank the voters for their confidence and support.

“I look forward to continuing the work I’ve started,” she said.

“Everyone says you need a second term.

The first term you figure out what needs to be done because you talk the people and then figure out who to talk to find the solutions. And then you need the second term to implement the solutions.

“I’ve found that to be very true.”

Lovely said she had lots of support throughout the various communities in the constituencies and that she wanted to “offer my opponents well.”

“We said we were going to run a clean campaign and we did that,” she said.

Locally, Lovely said she was concerned about the fate of the Camrose Casino and also seeing a more equitable split for rural charities working casinos.

“I think they’re under way with the process,” she said.

“I need to check and see where we’re at with the process. I have decided I need to roll up my sleeves and get involved. I strongly believe the rural charities should be receiving equal treatment to the urban charities when it comes to their shares coming from working at a casino.”

Lovely said UCP Leader Danielle Smith had quickly been on the phone to congratulate her on her win, Monday night.

“I doorknocked for 14 other campaigns dur-

Jackie Lovely’s Election watch party was held Monday night at the Camrose Boston Pizza for her campaign supporters. Tensions were high as individuals joined together, watching the poll results come in.

Over 60 people were in attendance at the event.

Cheers erupted at the declaration Lovely’s win with only 12 of the 25 polls being counted. Lovely gave a speech thanking those who helped in any way possible to end the night. JORDYN CHARLESWORTH PHOTO

ing this election,” added Lovely.

“I worked down in Calgary and in Edmonton.

I also doorknocked for the leader when she ran in her by-election. It’s nice when she recognizes the hard work.”

Beltone meets all of your needs:

Lovely said she was optimistic about the provincial campaign.

“I happy for my colleagues who have been elected or reelected and I’m hopeful for our other colleagues as the results come in.”

UCP win reduced majority government John Mather Staff Reporter

It was the wee hours of the morning on May 30, but when the count was finally concluded Danielle Smith and the United Conservative Party had racked up a narrow majority government win over Rachel Notley and the NDP. With ridings flipping back and forth between the two parties for most of the night, the final count was 48 seats for the UCP while Notley and the NDP grew the official opposition to 39 seats.

“To paraphrase our friend Ralph Klein, ‘Welcome to another Miracle on the Prairies’,” Smith bellowed over a raucous crowd at her Calgary victory party.

“We faced the most expensive, fierce and co-ordinated opposition and third party political campaign in provincial history.

“Many folks wrote us off as recently as last month, but folks chose a move our province forward by reelecting a strong, stable majority government.”

She thanked all candidates regardless of whether they ran for the UCP or any other party.

Smith easily held on to her own seat in Brooks Medicine Hat where she was up against Alberta Party leader Barry Morishita, who finished a distant third behind the NDP candidate.

In fact the Alberta Party, which ran a limited number of candidates hoping for a breakthrough, was thoroughly decimated as this was strictly a twohorse race throughout the night.

“The election is now over,” continued Smith. “It is time to put aside partisanship, division, personal, and political attacks in the rearview mirror. It’s time to move forward as all Albertans no matter who we voted for.”

In mentioning the NDP leader had called to concede the election Smith stated she believed Rachel Notley was a loyal Albertan who truly cares about the province.

Speaking to Albertans who hadn’t cast a vote for the UCP, Smith said “I

want you to know that my mandate is to work for all Albertans no matter how you voted.

“I will work everyday to demonstrate to you that I can be trusted to work to improve on the issues that are important to you.”

She said she wasn’t perfect but if she heard about concerns she could then work to improve on them.

Smith did take a swipe at the Justin Trudeau Liberals and stated she was fully prepared to stand up to him and Federal policies designed to harm Alberta.

In her concession speech, Rachel Notley said she had mixed emotions about the results.

“I feel tremendous pride for those people who offered their support to building a better future for Alberta,” she stated. “As a movement we have grown our support in every corner of this province.”

“We’re deeply disappointed in the overall result,” Notley added. “ T o those who offered their support you are the reason we fight for what we believe in.”

She said she had been inspired by the candidates who had run for her party whether they either won or lost.

Notley too said it was time to set aside the partisanship and bickering that had been featured throughout the election.

“Where we fell short,” she added.

“The responsibility lies entirely with me.”

“Now is not the time to let up,” she continued. ”It’s the time to step up.”

Notley said it was an honour to serve as the leader and a privilege to serve as the Leader of the Opposition.

“We will have a say in the future of this great province,” she said.

She concluded saying if her party had won it was her position to move past the divisions, and to govern for the vast majority of Albertans.

In Edmonton, the entire complement of 20 ridings went to the NDP with Deputy UCP leader Kaycee Madu losing his lone UCP seat in Edmonton Southwest constituency.

Beaver County takes concerns about bee industry to RMA meeting Patricia Harcourt Editor

Beaver County Council has agreed to support an Agriculture Service Board recommendation to bring forward a resolution about concerns over the bee industry to a District 5 meeting.

The concern will be forwarded to an upcoming Rural Municipalities of Alberta (RMA) District 5 meeting.

RMA “represents rural municipalities in meetings with government, and ensures that provincial and federal decision makers, as well as industry and other relevant stakeholders, understand and incorporate the best interests of rural Alberta in their policies,” explained GM of Community Services Aimee Boese, in her report.

“Resolutions are the primary method by which the membership directs the RMA for advocacy,” she said.

The county ASB’s resolution concerns the bee industry and was drafted through consultation with local Tofield area business Beary Berry Honey and other related reports.

Council has to approve the resolution at least four weeks prior to the District 5 meeting, which next takes

Employment Opportunity

place on August 25.

The resolution reads: “That Alberta’s agricultural service boards request that the Canadian Food Inspection Agency conducts further research on Varroa Miticide controls and approve a new Varroa Mite to address the lack of control options available to honey producers.”

The resolution concerns honey bee packages, which were closed to Canadian importation from the US in the 1980s.

There is also a lack of options for producers to deal with mites who have become pesticide resistant to the chemicals already available.

These resistant mites are now spreading through Canada’s bee hives, so there is a need for new management tools to ensure the longevity of the bee industry in this country.

Bees are the major pollinators of orchards, berry farms, vegetables, forages, and canola, so also aid in the agricultural industry as a whole.

A motion by Councillor Barry Bruce (Division 4) to adopt the recommendation was passed, Reeve Kevin Smook stated: “As ASB chair, I want to speak to this at the RMA meeting.”

“Life is a Highway” for Irma Graduates Patricia Harcourt Editor

The graduates for Irma School were given a magical and heartfelt send-off by their family, friends, and school staff on Friday evening.

This year’s graduates were Jameson Falle, Dierk Fuder, Brody Lancaster, Hayden Lawson, Sebastien Lavoie, Luis Olivera, and Scott Ratzlaff.

Scott was unable to attend that evening, but was remembered in spirit along with his other classmates.

The theme for this year’s ceremonies was “Life is a Highway,” and was illustrated as the grads made their way to the stage walking on a ribbon of black highway with white demarcation lines. The highway led them from the balloon festooned archway in the back of the hall to the beautifully decorated stage in front.

Excited family and friends streamed into the auditorium and were helped to find their seats by ushers Brandon Glover and Bowen Larson.

Principal Darren Grosky was Master of

Ceremonies for the occasion, introducing the grads as they made their way up the ribbon of highway and onto the stage during the Processional. They chose their own music for their grand entrance.

Tanya Ford, local trustee for the Buffalo Trail Public School (BTPS) board, was the first speaker and offered some sage advice for the grads before congratulating them on their success.

School Division Superintendent Rhae-Ann Holoien offered congratulations on behalf of the Central Office, via video message.

Mr. Grosky provided greetings from Irma School before Mr. Kyle Parsons presented each graduate their certificates.

This year’s Valedictorian speech was provided

by Jameson Falle, who expressed his appreciation on behalf of the grad class for the parents, school and community who helped them to reach this milestone in their lives.

And guest speaker was Mrs. Tara Gwinn, who taught the class for several years and had many

amusing and heartfelt stories to tell of their time together.

The slideshow presented a pictorial of each grad’s growing up years and caused many chuckles from the audience.

This was followed by the heartfelt ‘Forever Grateful’ Presentation, led by grads Jameson Falle and Sebastien Lavoie. Each grad presented family members with flowers and hugs in gratitude for their love and guidance over the years.

All graduates read out their own humorous ‘Class Will’ offerings, with grad Hayden Lawson giving the ‘Thank You’ on behalf of the class to all who worked to make the grad such a success.

The program ended with the traditional ‘Kodak Moment.’ Then the grads joined with their escorts for a parade as the lights went up and everyone cheered them on to the theme song: “Life is a Highway.”

Then the dance began, first with their parents, and then with their escorts, to conclude the evening’s graduation ceremony.

Beaver County and Roadside Brush Control policy Village of Ryley sign grant agreements updated by County council Patricia Harcourt Beaver County repealed the former Roadside Brush Control and accompanying administrative procedure (Policy AG-014) and replaced it with Policy AG-012.

Agricultural Fieldman Jonathan Culbert introduced the change to council at the May 17 regular meeting, with the new policy, including the control of woody vegetation.

“To ensure the sustainability of the county’s infrastructure, various policies and programs have been implemented including grading, gravelling, vegetation control, shoulder pulls, seeding, etc.” stated Culbert’s report to council.

“Woody vegetation that is encroaching upon roadways pose multiple risks to the safety and integrity of roadways,” said Culbert. “While not only reducing sightlines, woody vegetation can also restrict the access of a road and even harm its structural integrity.”

The Roadside Brush Control policy is used to guide administration and field staff on its control, and has been reviewed for needed additions or deletions necessary to improve its guidelines.

Culbert said that “several edits were made to improve the clarity of the policy and to simplify the

administrative procedural steps.”

Council perused the changes at the Governance and Priorities Committee meeting held prior to council. Culbert explained that the formatting and rewriting was done to fit the new policy template and will be included under Public Works.

“This is a program that does help with residents in the area,” he added.

Councillor Barry Bruce (Division 4) said he felt “the county is doing a great job” in term of brushing, and wanted to see it expanded.

Trees causing problems in the county-owned ditches was brought up, as well as overhanging trees on roadways.

“We do handle that on a case by case basis,” said Culbert, explaining the dangers and hazards to the travelling public.

Bruce agreed with Deputy Reeve Gene Hrabec (Division 3) who spoke about the dangers of the overhanging trees on road allowances.

Bruce said these trees would cause damage if passing machinery hits them.

Culbert said some producers like to use the trees as windbreakers, if they live near the road. “We try our best to work proactively,” he said, with the producers. He added, however, that the county “has the authority to do the work needed to maintain safety.”

with Clean Harbors

The Village of Ryley, along with Beaver County, have each signed funding agreements with landfill operator Clean Harbors. As per the agreements effective January 1, 2023, Clean Harbors will provide the municipalities with funding through Community Enhancement Grants and hosting donation fees.

“Clean Harbors is committed to being a good corporate citizen, and in line with the company’s desire to contribute to society and the economy, they have entered into agreements with each of the municipalities to provide on-going funding,” stated the county’s Communications Coordinator Tracey Popick, in a May 25 announcement.

The grants are calculated quarterly on tonnage received at the Ryley facility. The agreements also include provisions for future inflation increases.

Ryley Mayor Brian Ducherer expressed his gratitude for the funds, stating: "Clean Harbors has given so much to the community of Ryley over the years.

Their voluntary contributions have made many capital projects possible, enhancing the lives of our residents and keeping our taxes low. This new initiative is a testament to the wonderful relationship between the Village of Ryley and Clean Harbors. Thank you!"

Beaver County retains MNP financial services for another two years Patricia Harcourt Ryan Arndt, general manager of corporate services for Beaver County, made a request regarding the financial audit services work to be done for the county in the coming years.

The recommendation was for administration to be authorized to negotiate an extended agreement with MNP LLP to provide financial audit services to Beaver County for the 2023-24 calendar year.

Council heard that MNP had requested an extension of their auditing contract for the 2023 and 2024 audit services.

“With the change in leadership in Corporate Services and the large number of projects that are being undertaken this year, it is recommended that we keep our current auditors for one more year,” stated Arndt.

“MNP has been our auditor for several years and their familiarity with our policies, procedures, and financial statements would allow Corporate Services to focus their attention on other priorities such as the reserve schedule, software selection, and efficiencies in processed,” he added.

Arndt also noted that, “additional staff time will be required during the first few audits if new auditors are selected who are not familiar with the county’s staff or accounting systems.

“This work will be in addition to large projects that Corporate Services already has planned for in 2023,” he said.

Arndt said MNP will be charging the same fee as the average of $35,000-$40,000 per year over the past few years.

He told council that, to retain the MNP’s services, “would alleviate extra work for the time

being,” in an already busy schedule.

“It would be easier to work with MNP through a transitional time,” said Councillor Lionel Williams (Division 2), adding that “Ryan is new, too.”

Williams asked if Arndt “was happy with MNP,” to which Arndt replied that he has worked with the firm in previous positions elsewhere.

“In my opinion, they do a good job,” he said.

“Then two years might be a better solution,” said Williams, agreeing with Deputy Reeve Gene Hrabec (Division 3) who earlier suggested that possibility.

The county has been using the MNP firm since 2014.

A motion by Hrabec was passed for council to authorize the hiring of MNP for up to a two-year period, which includes the 2023 and 2024 calendar years.

Beaver County Chronicle, May 31, 2023 - 3

Beaver County agrees to expanded employment services for CALP Patricia Harcourt Beaver County has agreed to support two new services for the Community Adult Learning Program(CALP) to aid people in local job searches.

The two programs include a regional Community Job Board and an Enhanced Job Search and Career Planning Support program.

The programs would be funded by the local municipalities that agree to participate and would be administered by CALP. The two projects were presented by CALP to the Beaver Regional Partnership (BRP), which is made up of officials from the four urban and one rural municipality in the county.

“These projects would increase the level of adult learning services in the Beaver County Region,” stated Boese, in her May 17 report to council.

CALP already helps adults with literacy and other basic language skills as well as resume, career and education planning and GED support.

Beaver County CALP “is asking municipal partners to share the cost of the expanded services,” she said, which can contribute to economic and community initiatives across the region.

Based on looking at other jurisdictions, such as Flagstaff County, that have the program, she said that “this is what it would take to run that program.”

The cost for the two programs was based on each municipality contributing per capita funding towards them. The Community Job Board would cost $7,750 including $6,000 for four work hours a week.

The Enhanced Job Search and Career Planning project was listed at $14,500 including $10,000 for contract work of six hours a week.

“If you can do this within those hours there are some great efficiencies there,” noted Councillor Lionel Williams (Division 2), adding he “would support it for 40 hours.”

And Deputy Reeve Gene Hrabec (Division 3) wanted to know, “if other municipalities (in Beaver County) don’t proceed with it, how can CALP get it up and running?”

He said that, if only the county and one other village goes into the agreement, it would be unfair to that village in terms of cost.

In that case, the per capita information “would have to be recalculated,” said Boese, “If there are fewer municipalities on board.”

For now, she said, administration “needs to know if council supports it. We will then sort out the rest of where the finances are coming from and the number of municipalities that are supporting it.”

Reeve Kevin Smook (Division 1) and Hrabec both stated that the finances would have to be determined in the county’s budget as well.

Boese said that without knowing how many municipalities will come on board, it is difficult to have a time frame of when the projects will be “on the ground.”

She added that, “BRP needs to determine the number of municipalities participating and the scope of the project could change,” with that information.

She said there “are still some details to work out…

We’re just looking to see if there is support,” at this

stage.

Smook said he was in favour of the projects as they “would help advertise regional partnership and collaboration.”

A motion by Williams to support the recommendation was passed.

Clean Harbors Continued from BCC1 For the first quarter of 2023, the village and county are set to receive $117,226.27 and $33,493.22 respectively for the hosting donation fee, and $33,493.22 and $16,746.61 for the Community Enhancement Grant.

The Community Enhancement Grant specifies the funds are to be used for recreation, leisure, and community programs. The hosting donation fee can be used at the discretion of the municipalities for any purpose, including general revenue, business development, and projects such as infrastructure construction or maintenance.

“We are incredibly grateful to Clean Harbors for contributing to the betterment of our community and wellbeing of county residents” said Reeve Kevin Smook, Beaver County. “Partnerships with industry such as this help to fund many projects and reduce the burden on county taxpayers. A policy for more detailed use of these funds will be considered by county council.”

The landfill operated by Clean Harbors is located within the Village of Ryley’s limits on Highway 854.

Irma was a very busy place on the weekend with graduation festivities and the Girls Prairie League of Softball tournament. Over 40 girls’ teams competed from U11 up to and including

U17. Games were held in Irma and Mannville.

Many volunteer hours and excellent weather made for a very successful weekend.

Parents and grandparents enjoyed a graduation tea for the four-year old preschool class on Thursday.

The Irma 4-H baking club will hold their achievement day at the school gym on Saturday, June 3 at 10 a.m.

There will be a bridal shower at Debby Valleau’s on Sunday, June 11 for McKennah Mannix, bride-elect of Carter Lawson.

by Viking Council at their May meeting.

“Council has a quorum to continue normal operations,” he said, adding that in the event of a tie while voting on a motion, the motion would be defeated.

Yakiwchuk read out a letter at the May meeting explaining her feelings regarding the issues that have come between her and the rest of council.

Following the letter, council stated

Younker Farms lost a farm truck this week to vandalism. Fuel and tools were stolen before the truck was set on fire.

Brent Oracheski was very fortunate to escape injury after the sprayer he was driving on Highway 41 was clipped by a gravel truck.

Irma School track meet will be Friday, June 9.

Jared and Cori Oracheski welcomed their third son last week.� Our community was saddened to hear of the passing of Art Pierce on the weekend. We extend our condolences to his family.

that the vote to censure her as mayor (made at an earlier meeting this year) would stand as she did not apologize for behaviour council had deemed went against the town’s Code of Conduct bylaw.

With the censure, Yakiwchuk had been stripped of her committee appointments and resulting per diem meeting payments, and other revenue usually garnered by councillors in the performance of their duties.

Yakiwchuk had not been attending the monthly council meetings, which Buttner has taken over as chair in order to keep the meetings going.

Viking School’s Phase 2 final phase of exterior building project Patricia Harcourt Editor

Phase 2 of Viking School’s exterior envelope upgrade is the final phase of a project to replace the failing exterior finishes of the building.

The first phase involved work on the north and west facing portion of the junior high wing, and the west facing administration and elementary wing.

The second phase of the work will take in the south and east facing section of the elementary section of the school.

“Phasing this project was necessary due to the large scope and dollar value of the project,” stated Kelly Kushnerik, Director of Facilities for Battle River School Division (BRSD).

She explained: “Phase two is the completion of the junior high classroom wing where phase one ended, and continues the work onto the high school classroom wing, CTS and gymnasium areas.”

The end result means “the complete wrapping of the school in new maintenance free finishes along with being more energy efficient to operate,” she said.

Vantage Builders will complete their phase one work with this second phase of the project.

“Vantage Builders was once again the successful bidder with the contractor mobilizing to start on the site in the next two

weeks,” said Diane Hutchison, Director of Communications for BRSD. “The project scope is identical to the first phase.”

It will include stucco, windows, and air vapour barrier in the areas mentioned.

Along with this replacement, additional insulation will be added.

The exterior finishes are a combination of split face block veneer, triple pane windows, prefinished metal corrugated siding and cement board.

This will “complete a low maintenance and energy efficient exterior finish system,” said Kushnerick.

The project came in just over $1.5 million to complete, with a public tendering process as in the first phase.

“It is being funded with the annual CMR and IMR funding allocated to the Battle River School Division,” said Kushnerick, who also provided an artist’s rendering of how the exterior of the school will look once completed.

“No work is being done to the gym interior,” she added. “Some interior work will be required and related to the window replacement.”

This is where the windows meet the interior millwork, replacing the failed junior high science prep room solarium window structure with an infill and with BRSD replacing the storage millwork in the prep room.
