STETTLER COUNCIL
Car wash noise concerns addressed ECA Review Reporter Noise complaints about a car wash has prompted several Stettler residents to make their concerns known to town council. Town administration received a letter on Thursday, November 15 from concerned residents regarding the automatic car wash located near the intersection of 50th avenue and 62 street. The residents are concerned with the noise created by the automatic dryer installed in the car wash when the unit’s exit door is opened. The car wash in question was constructed in the summer of 2011 on a previously vacant parcel of land next
to a residential development. Patrons to the car wash have a choice of four wash selections. The two top tier wash options include a 48 second dryer cycle that operates with the rear doors open, letting the noise from the dryer units escape to the outside. On a visit to the site, town staff used a sound meter to measure sound created by the dryer cycle. The sound of the dryer, measured outside of the car wash directly inline with the open exit door, measured 70 decibels (dB) -- consistent with the sound of heavy truck traffic on nearby highway 12. The sound of the dryer operating with the door closed measured only 45 dB. According to Administration, the
owner of the car wash has been very cooperative in dealing with past issues regarding sightlines, lighting and drainage. As it stands, the construction of the car wash did not violate any existing by-laws. The land the car wash currently occupies has been zoned highway commercial since 1971. Councillor Al Campbell suggested that real estate agents should be more steadfast in pointing out the zoning of vacant parcels of land next to new development. Suggestions from council included installation of a berm or planting trees. Councillor Leona Thorogood was particularly fond of the tree idea, stating that large trees would reduce the amount of noise. Indeed,
plans to build a tree-topped berm were in the original recommendations from the Municipal Planning commission and made a condition of the approval of the original building permit. The trees will be planted in the spring and assessed by the commission at the close of the 2013 growing season. Council unanimously passed a motion to direct administration to meet with the residents and car wash owner to develop an equitable solution. Mayor Dick Richardson excused himself from the proceedings due to a potential conflict of interest, as the car wash is a client of an insurance agency associated with Richardson.

Rick Strankman wins election. Youngstown fire destroys home.
Winds damage buildings in Hanna.
East Central Alberta 2012 a year in review The year started with a couple of devastating fires, one in Youngstown on Monday, January 16 and the other in Throne on Tuesday, February 7. The fire in Youngstown saw firefighters from Cereal and Hanna trying in vain to save the home, which was destroyed. The fire in Throne saw a family of seven lose everything as a fire that started in the fireplace claimed their home. Benefits were held to assist both families. A wild shootout with police on Tuesday, February 7 put the small town of Killam on front pages across North America. An intense manhunt netted the suspect Sawyer Clarke Robison, charged with second degree murder for the death of his uncle as well as two counts of attempted murder after he allegedly shot two RCMP members. Constables Sidney Gaudette and Sheldon Shah were shot while trying to execute a search warrant on Robison’s property 10 kilometres southeast of Killam. Gaudette was shot once in the abdomen while Shah was shot in the leg, groin and chest. Both spent a week in hospital recovering from their injuries. A Hanna man was charged with murder after a shooting on Thursday, March 8 claimed two lives. Twenty-four year old Curtis Everett Rideoutt was charged with one count each of first and second degree murder after 47-year-old Bruce Rideout and 39-year-old Lenette Euteneier were found with fatal gunshot wounds inside their home in Hanna. Alberta’s Progressive Conservative party won a historic election on Monday, April 23, not only becoming the longest-serving provincial political party in Canadian history but also in electing Alberta’s first female premier, former Justice Minister Alison
Redford. Sixty-two seats confirmed a majority government for the party with the upstart Wildrose Alliance Party capturing 17. Many local ridings were won by Wildrose candidates, including Bruce Rowe (Olds-Didsbury-Three Hills) and Rick Strankman (Drumheller-Stettler). Minister of Municipal Affairs Doug Griffiths managed to hold onto his riding of Battle River-Wainwright. In local election news Eugene Rovensky soundly won the Coronation town council by-election held on Monday, April 30. Rovensky won the seat with 162 votes over two other candidates. The seat had been vacant since Tuesday, February 28 after the resignation of Nicole Lindmark. In Hanna, a motion was introduced by trustees at the Prairie Land School Division to close Hanna Primary School on Thursday, May 3. Ongoing maintenance and building code issues in the 84-year-old building were the primary reasons for the closure. The motion to close the school was passed at the Wednesday, May 30 board meeting with deliberations taking place through much of 2012 to finalize the closure. The search for a man involved in a shooting in Stettler ended in suicide near Coronation on Monday, May 28. Thirty one-year-old Dustin Goddu of Red Deer was involved in what police describe as a ‘random shooting’ in Stettler. The suspect fled when approached by police leading officers on a chase eastbound on Highway 12. Police managed to contain the suspect in between Castor and Coronation where he subsequently died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The female victim, who was not known to the suspect, was

airlifted to Calgary suffering from gunshot wounds. It was a heartbreaking decision, but organizers of the 2012 Coronation Pro Rodeo were forced to cancel the event due to rain. The rodeo was scheduled to take place on Friday, June 15 and Saturday, June 16. Drainage issues at the rodeo site was the mitigating factor, as the surface becomes dangerously muddy when exposed to rain. A reorganized rodeo committee worked throughout the summer to develop a new plan for the 2013 rodeo, which included a date change and a serious look either rebuilding or relocating the rodeo grounds. Pending approval of the Canadian Professional Rodeo Association, the 2013 rodeo will be held on the weekend of July 6. Paintearth County celebrated its 50th anniversary on Wednesday, June 27 with a celebration in Castor. While
heavy rains in the days leading up to the celebration made the grounds around the new county office unsitable, the bright sunshine made the relocated celebration at the Castor Community Hall all that more festive for the nearly 500 celebrants. The County of Paintearth was incorporated in 1962. The same rains that caused last minute changes to the Paintearth County 50th anniversary party wreaked havoc in towns further south. Over 180 millimetres of rain prompted Youngstown to declare a state of emergency as flooding damaged foundations, collapsed buildings and disabled the local sewage lift station. Emergency crews brought in pump trucks to help remove the water and town crews were forced to remove sections of railway track to clear a clogged culvert. Turn to ECA Review, Pg 4

East Central Alberta 2012 a year in review Cont’d from Pg 4 Several communities celebrated their centennials in 2012. The village of Halkirk kicked off their 100th birthday celebration on Friday, July 6 with a weekend-long festival featuring a bonfire, parade and several barbecues. Displays of the village’s history and a spectacular fireworks display delighted all. Three Hills celebrated 100 years on Friday, July 20 with fireworks, food and entertainment. The same weekend saw Veteran recognize their centennial with a dance, a parade and lots to do for children. Fireworks lit up the night sky and the event was capped off with a pancake breakfast and church service. Hanna celebrated 100 years in high style on Friday, August 3. A parade, speeches and fireworks marked the town’s centennial celebrations, which included a visit from the mayor of Wake, Japan -- Hanna’s sister city since 1993. Also celebrating centennials were Chauvin, Clive and Consort. A massive windstorm on
Monday, September 10 wreaked havoc across much of central Alberta, damaging buildings and infrastructure across many communities. Several roofs in Hanna were torn off, including the Super 8 Hotel. A blade-signing event was held at the site of the Halkirk wind turbine project on Wednesday, September 19. Construction of the project has been ongoing and is expected to be complete by early 2013. A province-wide search for a man missing from Wainwright came to a tragic end on Friday, October 5 when his body was found near Alliance. Kelbert Didluck had been missing since Tuesday, September 18 when he left his home in what police describe as an ‘agitated mental state.’ Two municipal by-elections were held on Monday, October 22 in Coronation and the village of Delia. The Coronation election was won by Dylan

Bullick, and Delia’s vacant councillors seat was won by Dennis Thordarson. A motion to close three schools in the Clearview School Division sparked outrage and support for local communities. On Friday, October 26 trustee Peter Simons proposed a motion to close schools in Donalda, Byemoor and Brownfield as a measure to offset a nearly $800,000 budget deficit. The motion was subsequently defeated during the Thursday, November 15 board meeting with all trustees except Simons voting against. At the same meeting, Clearview trustees decided to begin public consultations in the rural school districts, a promise made earlier in the year but not followed through. Consultations are scheduled to take place in 2013. Hanna approved their antibullying by-law on Tuesday,
November 15, joining several communities in Alberta who chose to hold bullies legally accountable for their actions. The Hanna by-law was based on a similar by-law passed by the Village of Consort earlier this year. The Town of Coronation also voted to establish their own anti-bullying by-law inspired by the actions taken in both Consort and Hanna. Two separate fires a week apart damaged popular night spots in east central Alberta. On Sunday, December 9 the Commercial Hotel in Alliance was completely destroyed by a three-alarm blaze that saw nearly 30 firefigthers working through the night to contain the fire. A week later an early morning fire on Saturday, December 15 severely damaged the Veteran Hotel which started in one of the upstairs rooms. Both fires are still under investigation.

HANNA COUNCIL
Community van past useful life Bryan Passifiume
ECA Review Reporter A recommendation has been made to the Hanna Community Services board to discontinue use of the van owned by Hanna Community Services. The recommendation was made during the Town of Hanna’s regular town council meeting on Monday, December 10 by Gwen Snell, director of community services. According to Snell, the van has long passed its useful life and no longer provides a reliable means of transportation. Snell reported that many summer programs have rented buses for longer trips for the past several years due to the van’s unreliability. Snell also reported that the arena has been well attended so far this season. An increase in attendance is attributed to increased school usage, and therefore cannot be considered a
revenue-generating increase. She also reported that the local hockey teams have been well received, particularly a new senior women’s hockey team.
Public works Sewer issues kept Hanna public works busy according to a report presented to town council by Director of Public Works, Brent Olesen. Public works crews were busy auguring and inspecting sewers along 2nd Avenue West to address persistent blockage issues. Sump problems at the hospital also had crews flushing sewers to help alleviate the problem. Crews also removed sewage from the water transfer station, the special areas maintenance shop and the airport. Snow removal was also top on the list for work crews. Town equipment have been busy removing snow from residential streets and laying down sand. Crews also installed Christmas lights in
preparation for the Hanna Light Up Parade.
Website Predictably, the community that visited the Town of Hanna website in 2012 the most was the Town of Hanna. A report about the website’s visitors was presented by Laurie Armstrong, director of business and communications. The vast majority of visitors to the website came from North America, with 2.4 per cent of visitors coming from Great Britain and 0.5 per cent from France. While Canada was the country with the highest amount of visitors to the town’s Facebook page at 967, visitors from the Philippines came in second with 99 page views. The United States came in third with 58 with Indonesia and India rounding out the top five. The Hanna Facebook page has a total of 1469 likes with 62 per cent of those followers being female.

OPINION
Time to stop the madness Brenda Schimke
ECA Review Journalist Today’s estimate is that it will cost $92,000,000 to purchase one F-35 stealth fighter jet. That’s a lot of zeros and a lot of tax dollars that could be used for health care and education. And that’s nowhere near the final cost, that’s just the latest estimate. The purchase the F-35s has become a hot potato for the government. The Opposition has been wondering for years why the F-35, when there are two proven fighter jets on the market. No one argues against the need for new jets to replace the old CF-18s. It’s fun to The argument has always been why play with the big Canadian taxpayers should fund Lockheed boys, but we can’t Martin to build a new jet afford it and we and whether Canada needs to be in the stealth don’t need it. club? Certainly our Prime Minister and top military brass are enamored with the American war machine. But, let’s get real. It’s fun to play with the big boys, but we can’t afford it and we don’t need it. It’s always amazing our fiscal hawks become wild spenders when it comes to purchasing macho-mania military things. There are a number of reasons why Canada’s economy is in better shape than the United States and military purchases is a major one. Unlike Canada, the United States must go to war to protect their overseas oil supplies. Canada’s needs are primarily around defending our nation, particularly in the north or international human rights tragedies, such as preventing genocide. Defence contractors are notorious for screwing taxpayers. They overcharge, always go over budget and make egregious profits. Procurement departments for governments have been very dumb for a long time. In the case of Lockheed Martin, the manufacturers of the F-35s, they appear to have gotten so greedy that even governments desperately wanting to join the stealth club are having to pull back and re-set. Can you imagine a small independent contractor winning the bid for a municipal sewer line and going back over and over and over again requesting more money to complete the job they bid on and won? Arms manufacturers have a monopoly and their customers are generally governments. They’ve been making excess profits for far too long on the backs of wage earners. It’s time to stop the madness. Taxpayers are tired and the F-35s are overkill.

This will mean that the overall annual tax-free savings contribution limit for TFSAs will grow to $5,500.” Since the Harper Government introduced TFSAs in 2009, Canadians have been able to earn tax-free investment income on contributions of up to $5,000 per year.
Redford budget promises come crashing down News Release With no plan to pay back mounting debt, an escalating revenue shortfall of possibly up to $6 billion dollars and a complete detachment from fiscal reality, Premier Alison Redford cannot to be trusted to keep her promises after creating her own fiscal nightmare, the Wildrose Official Opposition said today. Before the election, Premier Redford promised Albertans that she would “balance the budget next year”, but is now suggesting that there might not be enough revenue just to cover day-to-day operating expenses with no plan to pay back new debt spending, saying that to pay for infrastructure Alberta is, “going to see some pretty large numbers.” “After promising a balanced budget and billions of dollars in new spending during the election, it is clear that Ms. Redford is a

example of our Conservative Government’s low-tax agenda that has already resulted in over $3,100 in yearly tax savings for the average Canadian family.” Some of the features that have made the TFSA a popular savings vehicle among Canadians include: unused contribution room is carried forward and accumulates for future years; funds can be withdrawn at any time for any purpose; and, income earned in a TFSA does not affect anyone’s eligibility for federal income-tested benefits and credits.

All Canadians - from students to young families to seniors - can save tax-free income through a range of investment products. TFSAs have become increasingly popular, with approximately 8.2 million Canadians having opened an account and roughly 2.5 million Canadians contributing the maximum amount in 2011. “I regularly remind us all in our riding of Crowfoot to open up a TFSA,” says Sorenson. “Increasing the TFSA contribution limit is great news to start off 2013 as it keeps more of Canadians hardearned dollars in their pocket - where it belongs. This is another
Premier who is willing to say or do anything to get elected and then break her word,” Wildrose Official Opposition Leader Danielle Smith said. “Now, during a time of economic uncertainty around the world, this government is leaving a legacy of waste and debt asking future Albertans to clean up the mess.” Premier Redford also justified the government’s path of deficits, debt and eroded savings suggesting that quality of life under the previous Premier Ralph Klein government in 2004 “wasn’t the best.” “Albertans are beginning to see what Ms. Redford meant when she stated that she wants to ‘change the character of Alberta’ – more debt and an erosion of the Alberta Advantage,” Smith said. The Wildrose has long criticized “Alison’s Wonderland” budget with its unrealistic revenue projections,

that would harm the economic health of the province, but yesterday Finance Minister Doug Horner finally admitted the government’s fiscal mess falls on their overly optimistic projection for oil prices, blaming it on the inability to move Alberta’s bitumen product to growing markets. “This Minister seems to have been living under a rock this past year, denying time and time again the impending budget crisis as a result of their bloated revenue projections,” Wildrose Finance Critic Rob Anderson said. “It is completely irresponsible for this government to suggest they had no idea the impact a lack of market access for our oil would have on our bottom line. These guys used phony numbers during the election and now Albertans are paying the price.”

Lessons from your environmental plan A completed Environmental Farm Plan (EFP) won’t do much good if it sits on a shelf gathering dust, says EFP technician Torsten Flyng. And one Alberta producer learned that lesson the hard way. Upon initially completing his EFP, the producer identified an aging well as a potential problem and a high priority action item. Because the years went by and the producer didn’t address the issue, the situation snowballed. Flyng says eventually the casing couldn’t support the system anymore and the well collapsed, contaminating the producer’s water source with silt and mud. “What could have been mitigated was the stress involved and the last minute concerns,” Flyng says, adding that, in this case, the producer was able to access Growing Forward funding which helped alleviate the cost of replacing the well. “There was the possibility that Growing Forward funding didn’t work out because he had waited and it was an emergency situation.” Flyng, an EFP technician with WestCentral Forage Association which encompasses the counties of Brazeau, Lac Ste. Anne, Parkland, Woodlands and Yellowhead, encourages producers to tap into the potential of their EFP as a strategic planning tool -- a living document that can help manage all aspects of their farming operation. He wants to see EFP binders put “back onto the kitchen table, instead of propping it up.” When used as a management tool on a regular basis, producers can grasp the full benefits of their EFP, he says. Even though unforeseen issues will always arise, the EFP helps to identify action items. By
keeping that list of priorities close at hand and referring to it on a regular basis, producers will be better equipped to address those items in a timely manner. “The producer who is able to plan into the future is the one that is able to survive the surprises,” Flyng says. “If you have a strategic plan, you know what you want to do going along. The EFP fits perfectly into that, in that those action items feed into what you need to do in the future to be the optimal operation.” Although the EFP can help identify priorities, it’s designed so producers control the issues they choose to address. There is no set timeline for producers to update their EFP, but Flyng suggests they look through their binders as often as monthly, striking off the action items they’ve addressed. Once that initial list of priority projects has been completed, he recommends starting from the beginning, doing a systemic update and adding in any new developments on the farm. This can be done every three to five years, Flyng suggests. For example, in the case of the producer who didn’t replace his well in time, that situation could have been mitigated by keeping his EFP current, he says, adding that the EFP can serve as a constant reminder of priority items. “The EFP has a purpose and it doesn’t serve its purpose if it’s just sitting as a book prop or a dust collector,” Flyng says. “It’s an active, living document that constantly needs to be addressed and updated and changed.” More information is available on the Alberta Environmental Farm Plan website at www.albertaefp.com

This is especially important if producers are over-wintering someone else’s cattle on a custom rate per head per day basis as often producers underestimate their yardage costs. The Cowbytes Manual has also been expanded to include everything producers would ever want to know about cattle nutrition while also having a very practical beef ration rules of thumb section. “By playing with the amounts fed of various combinations of feeds and byproducts at different prices, producers can find ways to reduce feed costs while achieving production targets,” explains Ramsey. “One time I helped a producer shave off $0.10 per cow per day by cutting back on feeding levels during mid-gestation. For 900 cows for 30 days this amounted to a savings of $2,700. “Most producers will easily find $1,000 in feed savings for over-wintering their cattle, by scouting around for some cheaper alternative feeds such as crop residues and bySouth of Big Valley, AB products, and by along Hwy. 56 using this program 1 section, 631 acres to prevent over or grassland.
