ECA Review/L. Joy

An amended communications policy was passed by Coronation town council at their regular meeting on June 22.

The town of Coronation news letter has been increasing in size as of late due to the amount of information from various community organizations, sports teams and events that are being submitted to the town for the newsletter and not to the local community newspaper.

The town’s newsletter, printed with taxpayers dollars, reaches only the boxholders in the Coronation post office.

The new policy states that the town newsletter will not contain news but just information, so no names, scores from games, etcetera, will be put into the newsletter and organizations will be encouraged by the town to send them into the Coronation ECA Review.

Council set a limit to the size of the newsletter at two pages, double sided and will contain taxpayer information only.

With the changes for the newsletter will come significant cost savings for the town.

The current newsletter is four sheets, double sided and the publication and distribution cost for the newsletter is approximately $2,500 for 900 copies.

The new newsletter with the changes will be one, double sided sheet and will cost $650 for 600 copies. As it is being mailed out with utility bills, no resident who is renting will receive it.

Other information, particularly events that will attract people from out of the area into town will be advertising and not appear in the newsletter.

COUNTY OF PAINTEARTH

Increase in water rates Beth Causley

ECA Review Reporter

Just after County of Paintearth residents saw a 10 per cent increase in taxes, they will now see an increase in water by six per cent. Council voted for the lowest of options presented for the increase, at their regular meeting on June 16.

The increase comes because the Shirley McClellan Regional Water Services Commission has increased their water rates from $2.29/m3 to $2.50/m3 as of May 1. While the county realizes that they won’t be able to recoup all of their water costs they decided to increase the rates for County residents by six per cent ($2.70/m3).

The County also manages Brownfield’s water and Brownfield residents will see a five per cent increase ($3.15/ m3) in their water rates.

The County of Paintearth currently charge $2.55/m3 and last year the total use was 5,176 m3.

With the extension of the water line an estimate of five per cent increase to the cost of operating the line was used as well as an estimated 20 per cent increase in use with new users.

Brownfield’s water, which is not metered per property but rather is charged at the residential rate and currently the church, hall and residents are all charged $30 per month and the school $240 per month. It is estimated to be currently $3.00/m3 for residential and $3.20/m3 for the school. Total use for Brownfield last year

was 1,735 m3.

The county is the initial stages of developing the rural water distribution and says that the use and costs are going to be high. The discussion points contained in the agenda state that the reason for giving estimates is because the county will not have a year of full use with all the new users for 2015.

Coun. Rocky Dahmer, who was one of the councillors to oppose the recent 10 per cent tax hike, said that because residents just recently received that increase, he wanted the increase to water kept at the lowest of the three options that were presented to council which could have seen the costs raised as much as 17.75 per cent for county residents and 15 per cent for Brownfield.

The six per cent increase for county residents will provide the County of Paintearth with a 35 per cent recovery rate.

The Brownfield increase of five percent will provide a 31 per cent recovery rate.

Bylaw changes passed

Changes to Bylaw 627-13, the connection fee to the rural waterline was changed at the meeting.

In March of 2014 Council moved that if the connection fee to the distribution line was completed at the time of engineering, it would be reduced from the current cost of $15,000 to $7,500.

If council wants to continue charging the current connection fee then the bylaw needed to reflect the motion that was made in March.

Rangeline Contracting Ltd

Custom Barbwire Fencing and Corral Work

The connection fee after the engineering is completed would be higher and will remain the same to encourage water development. For a full pressure system (if the system can accommodate) will cost $20,000 and a trickle (low) pressure system is $15,000. The county does not think that the system could handle full pressure systems and believe that the majority of hook-ups will be a trickle system.

Rural water survey

The county was looking for 400 responses from their survey on the rural water system but have only received 100.

The survey will help determine who is interested in the water system, whether in the future, as soon as possible or never.

With rural water costing $180,000 for one mile of line, the county needs to know which part of the proposed rural water line project to look at completing next.

The survey will show the maximum number of people interested, whether now or in the future.

Forestburg councillors stick to their guns on sale price of lots Beth Causley

ECA Review Reporter After counter offers that included an impromptu incamera session during the June 17 regular council meeting of the Village of Forestburg, council said they were firm on their offer to sell the last two lots in the village at the asking price of $15,000.

“We want to be fair to the people who bought before you,” said Coun. Fay Hagel to Marc

Presseau from Spruce Grove, Ab., who wants to move a modular home to the village.

The original offer from Presseau was $12,000 for the two lots but the village was asking $9,858 for each and in the past year the village has sold two adjacent properties of similar size for $16,800 and $15,000.

The manufactured home that Presseau wants to move to Forestburg is 10 years old and the current land use bylaw for

the village states that a discretionary use for these properties is “Manufactured homes no older than five years old when moved to the site.”

After talking with Presseau and seeing a photograph of the home, Council offered to relax on the age of the home but will remain firm on their asking price of $15,000.

Presseau will take the offer back to speak with his wife and will be in contact at a future date.

Fire training centre

The request from the Forestbug Fire Department, all volunteer based, for land to put a sea can was passed. The sea can will be used for fire fighting training purposes as soon as public works approves it and the sufficient area around the site is cleared so that any risk of fire spreading will be minimized.

The two lots, one with a fire hydrant on it, will be given to the fire department under the condition that if someone wants to buy them the sea cans will have to be moved.

The hope is that the training centre will draw in other fire departments to use the facility.

Website updates needed

Ethel Williams, widow of Lloyd Williams, County of Stettler’s first administrator, cracks up the crowd gathered for the County’s 60th Anniversary while Reeve Wayne Nixon and Coun. Joe Gendre look on. “I wrote a few notes,” explained Williams at the beginning of her speech, “I don’t know if you’re interest or not but I’m going to say them.” Lloyd’s position was secretary-treasurer, explained Ethel, or the equivalent of administrator today. County of Stettler No. 6 was formed in 1955 from the Municipal District of Stettler No. 336.

ECA Review/ D. Johnston

Stettler county celebrates 60th anniversary Debra Johnston

ECA Review Reporter In 1955, the County of Stettler No. 6 was incorporated out of the previous Municipal District of Stettler No. 336. At that time, the secretary-treasurer, what would be an administrator today, was Lloyd Williams.

Sixty years later, Lloyd’s widow Ethel Williams took centre stage at the County of Stettler’s 60th Anniversary Celebration to give an entertaining speech on the early history of the county.

“I wrote a few notes,” explained Williams to the large crowd seated in front of her, “I don’t know if you’re interested or not but I’m going to say them.”

Williams recalled the building the county built in the early days that cost $80,000 and opened in 1958. A thousand people attended, recalled Williams.

“If you’re going to build a new one…well, it will cost you a lot more,” pointed out Williams to a chuckling crowd.

A number of other dignitaries and guests spoke briefly to congratulate the county on the great strides forward the county has taken since its inception.

“We’re made up of a diverse

group of people,” stated County of Stettler Reeve Wayne Nixon, “We’re made up of a diverse landscape.”

“We have such great relationships with our neighbours,” stated Assistant CAO Yvette Cassidy, a sentiment that was echoed by several other speakers.

Many other events took place simultaneously on the county grounds throughout the afternoon.

Bob Cameron of Canadian Badlands Stettler Pheasant Festival was in attendance with ‘Bodie’, a male Pudelpointer on loan all the way from Los Angeles. Bodie is visiting Alberta for breeding purposes but found some time to do some retrieval demonstrations for onlookers.

Bruce Hicks and Michael Snow of Finning were on hand with a Cat grader simulator for visitors to try out, one of several machinery simulators Finning offers for training.

Clydesdale horses ‘Tom and Jerry’ waited quietly alongside their owner Jim Long for passengers to climb aboard.

The public was treated to various other events including a petting zoo and play area for the kids, barbecued burgers and fixings for lunch, as well first responders were on hand displaying equipment.

Coun. Hagel said that the village’s website needs updates, the content needs to be reviewed, links need to be attached and the links that are already there need be looked at to make sure they actually link to another site.

“It’s not just for residents but it’s for people looking into the village, people who potentially want to move here,” said Coun.

Hagel.

Council will be looking at the potential of working with a work experience student on this project.

Saving green space

Green park space in the village will be saved thanks to the work of administration who provided information that helped the rezoning and title ownership of lots in the village.

After reviewing properties that are owned by the village, Administration discovered that the land the Community Hall is on is currently zoned for “park” and does not meet the criteria for the current designation but does fall within the permitted use of Institutional and Public Users District (IPU).

The two lots adjacent to the hall which are utilized as a green space for the hall as well as potential expansion area were zoned General Residential District (R2).

All of the lots were rezoned to IPU and the lots, which were on six separate lots and council voted to consolidate the parcels into one title for ease of record keeping

Daysland taxes up by 4.9 per cent Beth Causley

ECA Review

Residents of Daysland will see a rise in their taxes by 4.9 per cent.

The Daysland mill rate was finally set at a special meeting on June 10.

The mill rate was originally on the agenda at the May 26 meeting, then was moved to a special meeting on June 1, which changed yet again to June 9.

After the June 9 meeting a call from Chief Administration Officer (CAO) Rod Krips, told the ECA Review that there was “a mistake on the mill rate” and it would have to be redone at a special meeting held on June 11.

The mill rate was set at $1000 for nonresidential properties and $750 for residential properties.

“The overall increase is 4.9 per cent,” said Krips in a follow-up email.

“Some properties will fluctuate above or below 4.9 per cent, depending on the individual assessment value of their properties.”

in the future.

The worry was that a future council might want to one day sell the properties which would result in a loss of the park.

The cost to rezoning would be approximately $50 but would be saving the green space from being dismantled for potential sale.

Wording is everything

Chief Administration Office (CAO) Deb Moffit had a number of agreements to discuss with council and had concerns about the working that was included in them.

With the Fire Services, Regional Fire Chief and Tripartite Rescue Services

3

Agreements CAO Moffit said that the wording in them needed to change.

Fay also pointed out that while one of the agreements is between multiple partners ( Killiam, Hardisty, Sedwick the only party that the lawyer contacted was Killiam.

Council will be sending a letter back to the lawyer who wrote the Fire Services Agreement, explaining their concerns and the CAO will be meeting with partners to clarify concerns with the various agreements to work with all municipalities so that all are in agreement and she will then bring them back to council.

Main street Hanna rejuvenation project

The west side of the Hanna Legion was painted as part of the All Aboard Initiative, one of its goals being Main Street Rejuvenation. ATCO Power and its employees volunteered their time and their man lift with painting supplies donated by Warwick’s Home Hardware and the Town of Hanna. The Hanna Legion supported the project and fed the volunteers. ATCO employees are applying primer on Thursday, June 18 before the final painting Friday.

Businesses can get involved in All Aboard and its Main Street Rejuvenation by doing very simple activities. A fresh coat of paint, flower boxes, or anything that will make their businesses look attractive.

They can get “All Aboard” by simply placing the All Aboard window decal, or a railway item in their store window, on their building, or on their product packaging, said Trisha Sewell, Economic Development Officer for Cactus Corridor Economic Development Corporation.

Son of a legend, Shooter performance of a lifetime!

Born May 19, 1979, Shooter Jennings is the only child of country music icons Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter.

Shooter Jennings lived the first few years of his life in a crib on his parents’ tour bus surrounded by the likes of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson.

By age five, he was playing drums. At 8 years old, he began taking piano lessons.

He started playing guitar at fourteen and on occasion he’d play percussion in his father’s band.

Music was his life! Years later in 2005 Jennings signed his first recording contract, with Universal South Records, releasing his debut album Put the “O” Back in Country that same year.

“Put the “O” Back in Country” produced his first entry on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts in its lead-off single “Fourth of July”. Later that year his song “Busted In Baylor County” was then featured in the 2005 film version of The Dukes of Hazzard, furthermore Jennings

portrayed his father in the Johnny Cash biopic Walk the Line alongside Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon. His rendition of his father’s song “Long Way From Home” was featured on the film’s soundtrack.

Now shooter Jennings is touring with his dad’s (Waylon’s) original recording/ touring band the Waymore’s Outlaws!

Performing a mix of Waylon’s Country Classics, and his own Outlaw Country/ Rock.

Together Shooter and Waymore’s Outlaws have been selling out shows across North America including all of their performances across Eastern Canada. This Fall they are touring through Western Canada with only a few select stops. Stettler is proud to be the only stop in Central Alberta, playing at the Agriplex with doors opening at 7pm on Oct.8/2015. Tickets are $39 plus GST and available at Well’s Furniture Main Street Stettler or by calling 403-741-6421.

VIEWPOINTS

VIEWPOINT

Turning to the paper for information Norman Molzan from Sibbald, Ab. was on his way home from a weekend motorcycle trip in eastern Alberta on June 21 and stopped in at the Castor information booth to find out about the races being held in Hanna on June 21 but found no information about it there.

He says he often stops in at tourist information booths to find out about local events but says most often he uses the newspaper.

Greg and Doug Asel, from Camrose, stand looking up at the Marion 360 on June 21 during the Diplomat Mine Interpretive Site open house.

The great machine was built in the 1920’s and was used to strip away the layers of soil and other materials on top of the coal and is one of several displays at the site.

ECA Review/ B.Causley

“That’s where I find most of the events, says Molzan, who said that he will plan trips to take in events along the way.

“People ask me how I know everything that’s going on (in the province) and I tell them that it’s because I read newspapers,” he said.

“It’s good that papers from other areas come into Oyen,” as it helps encourage non-locals to attend the events that are advertised.

Adjust taxes

The town adjusted the municipal portion of an individual’s taxes for $2,062, writing off the person’s taxes.

Tree removal

Council was advised, at its June 18 regular meeting, that Fortis plans to trim and remove trees under power lines in town so all trees are at least 4.2 metres from the wires.

Mayor Penny Shantz suggested council write a letter to Fortis asking if that is their policy.

Chief Administrative Officer Tony Goode suggested, since the town is meeting with Fortis this week, they tell Fortis that unless a tree is dead it is to be only trimmed and not removed.

The JimBob bridge, located on Range Road 144, south of Twp Road 400 was replaced on June 16 and saw the truck driver doing some pretty fancy maneuvering, including coming into the area where the bridge was to be replaced through field access as the bridge lies in a valley with a steep hill on one side and a twisting road on the other.

OBITUARY

Served in Medical Corp.

On June 19, 2015 Vera Mary Primrose Shuckburgh (nee Gines) went to be with her Lord and Saviour at the age of 96 years.

Vera was born in Whitbourne, Hereford, England on April 19, 1919. She moved with her parents at six months of age to Canada and resided in Edmonton where she received her schooling.

She then entered nursing training at the Royal Alexandra School of Nursing and graduated in 1942. She was a Nursing Sister in the Royal Canadian Shuckburgh Army Medical Corp. during 1945 – 1946.

She received her Public Health Diploma at the University of Alberta in 1947 following which she worked at the Stettler Rural Health Unit where she met her future husband Leo Shuckburgh and they were married at Holy Trinity Church in Edmonton on July 5, 1950.

Vera and Leo lived in Stettler until they moved to 2-38-20 W4 and farmed until Leo retired in 1975. Vera and Leo loved to travel and visited England, Australia, New Zealand, Arizona and also enjoyed many camping trips with friends to Alaska and various other places.

After the death of Leo, Vera took up residence at Canterbury Manor in Edmonton and later moved to Canterbury Court where she lived until her passing. Vera was very involved in the Victoria Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star in Stettler and had many wonderful visits from Areme #11 OES in Edmonton over the years.

Predeceased by her loving husband, Leo on March 11, 1995; her parents, George

and Mary Gines; her brother, George Gines; her sister, Betty and brother-in-law, Tom Whiting; and many members of the Shuckburgh side of the family, Vera is survived by her sister-in-law Dora Gines of Edmonton; brother-in-law Trevor Shuckburgh of Victoria; as well as many loving nieces, nephews, other relatives in Canada and the United Kingdom; and friends.

Rest In Peace Dear Vera.

A funeral service for the late Mrs. Vera Shuckburgh will be held at St. George’s Anglican Church, Stettler, AB. on Saturday, June 27, at 1 pm. Memorial contributions may be made to the St. George’s Anglican Church, Box 699, Stettler, AB T0C 2L0 or to a charity of the donor’s choice and would be appreciated by the family.

Gained many experiences, knowledge and friends wherever he went Ralph Gordon McLarty died June 17, 2015 at his home in Coronation at the age of 53.

Celebration of Ralph’s life, was held Tuesday, June 23, 2015 2 p.m. at the Coronation Community Hall.

Interment at Coronation Cemetery followed service.

Ralph Gordon McLarty was born August 19, 1961 in Coronation, Alberta to Gordon and Shirley McLarty. He was the second born of four children. His first 10 years were on the farm near Silver Heights. He started school in McLarty Brownfield through Grade 4.

The family moved to Coronation in 1971 where Ralph continued schooling, he graduated from Grade 12 in 1979.

Ralph worked in several different jobs throughout his life; some for short term, some for several years. He gained many experiences, knowledge and friends wherever he was. His employment included: Coronation Co-op, Coronation Tire & Rubber, Drylander Farms, Hewitt Farms, Lyle Bridge Fabricating, Hampton Oilfield, Alberta Wheat Pool (Halkirk, Empress and Sedgewick), Bergums Oilfield, M&N Construction, Rindal

Oilfield Construction, Maverick Oilfield Services and at his passing he was working for F5 Services in Hardisty as dispatcher and safety officer.

Although Ralph was a man of few words (usually); he enjoyed people; children were often drawn to Ralph for his kind, gentle teasing manner. In his young adulthood he was a team roper, enjoyed horses and the rodeo scene.

He had a passion for curling and golfing, he was good at both. He was involved in the Curling and Golf Clubs in the communities he lived and had a talent for being the draw master for bonspiels and tournaments.

Ralph will be lovingly remembered and forever missed by his parents Gordon and Shirley; sisters Lynette and Charlene (Gordon) Musgrove; brother Keith; nephew Jeffrey (Stephanie); nieces Erin (Troy) Freadrich and children Claire and Nolan and Kari (Mark) Rogenski. Many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Former staff at the Amisk School attending the 100 Year Anniversary were Jean BenďŹ eld, teacher (left) and Rose Hayes, secretary who each spent over 25 years at the Amisk School.

Benita Fossen, trustee (left) presented a plaque from the Buffalo Trail Public School board acknowledging 100 years of education to Colette Johnson, principal of the Amisk School.

Amisk School celebrates milestone

by Patti Hovde The 100 year celebration at the Amisk School on June 16, 2015 was a huge success. The weather cooperated so the annual awards were held outside in the early afternoon. Afternoon and evening activities were well attended by the surrounding community.

All ages enjoyed the train rides and horse and wagons rides. Children were busy partaking in all the activities, bouncy castle, face painting, clown shows, petting zoo and popcorn. More than 250 people enjoyed a great supper supplied by school families and prepared by the Parent Advisory Council.

In attendance were two great ladies that spent their

former working career at the Amisk School, Jean Benfield, teacher, and Rose Hayes, secretary.

In attendance for the evening ceremony were Benita Fossen, trustee for Buffalo Trail Public Schools and Lisa Blackstock, assistant superintendent, offering congratulations honouring the milestone. Also the Mayor of Amisk, Bill Rock offered congratulations from the village. Dave Nelson, a former trustee, spoke of his fondness and pride in the Amisk School.

Most of the day might have seemed kid orientated but that’s what the Amisk School is all about. Wow, what a party!

Local pilots who have been tying their aircraft down at the Hanna airport at the temporary ties might have to negotiate a fee with the town if they want to use them permanently as the temporary tie downs are meant for visitors from out of town.

Campground fees too high?

A number of council members reported that they were receiving feedback that the camp site fees are too high and said that there was a rumor that there was a petition going around.

Gwen Snell reminded council that campground fees had not increased in a number of years and that the increase was $35 from the original $30 for sites with water, sewer and power.

5314 50 St. Castor, Alberta 403-882-4041

Town of Castor and Castor & District Recreation Board

by Doreen Blumhagen It was a beautiful day at Circle Square Ranch as they hosted the first ManHunter Race on June 20.

Based on the very popular TV show ManTracker, the Circle Square Ranch (CSR) version of the race involves six ManHunters on horseback trying to prevent racers from getting to the finish line in the allotted amount of time.

CSR has all the qualities to make for an exciting race with coulee hills, rugged terrain, and a creek to cross.

A great feature to this unique race was that two of the ManHunters were actually once the prey on the TV show ManTracker. Shane Doan, captain of the NHL Phoenix Coyotes, and his younger brother Brook managed to elude the famous ManTracker back in June 2010 (the show was first aired April 2011).

When asked if they would be interested in participating in this event, Shane and Brook were both very excited to be the hunters instead of the hunted!

Both Doan boys grew up at Circle Square Ranch as their parents, Bernie and Bernice Doan, were directors there for over 30 years.

There were three races participants could enter. First was a family race which consisted of any parents and children 6-12 years old, maximum six members per team.

Teams were taken by wagons to the starting point approximately one mile away as the crow flies.

A shotgun is fired to start the race which signalled racers to begin and six eager ManHunters on horseback to leave the barns at a gallop!

Teams were caught when the ManHunter’s horse came within a safe 15 feet or stopped their forward momentum.

They were given a mark on their hand and then were allowed to continue to try and complete the race within the one hour time limit.

Only one team managed to elude the ManHunters completely as well as finish within time. Bill Sandilands and seven year old twin children Scott and Sadie from Carstairs, Ab. crossed the finish line at 34:22, happy but exhausted!

Then next race was the intermediate race for teens aged 12 to 15 years.

Participants showed up in their best camouflage gear as well as many with camouflage grease painted faces.

Dropped off at the same starting point as the earlier family race these teams of two had to find two hidden check points prior to crossing the finish line before getting caught and disqualified. It proved to be a hard task as most teams did not cross the finish line before the one hour mark.

Austin Docksteader and Matthew Hale of Killam, Ab. were the only ones to find both check points and not get caught by the ManHunters and to finish with the time of one hour and five minutes.

The final race of the day was for the die hards! The advanced race was for participants 16 years and up and was on a much more challenging terrain, and greater distance between the checkpoints and finish line. As the crow flies this two mile race was found to be even more challenging as the clouds moved in and rain poured down during the final half hour.

Teams were given a map and needed to make it to an unmarked open area together without being stopped by the ManHunters. It proved to be too much for teams of two but some individuals made it only to find their partners were not so lucky. Sean Lewis, Jonathon Allen and Dustin Kroeker all completed the race without their partners in one hour and 18 minutes followed closely by Katie Senn at one hour 24 minutes, the only female to complete the race.

The day was made even more exciting by having Shane and Brook Doan signing autographs throughout the day.

ManHunter cards depicting both Shane and Brook in the ManTracker event were signed and Shane provided eager hockey fans with signed hockey cards.

The additional skilled ManHunters were CSR staff members: Kevin Perry, director of the Ranch, Justin Quantz and Kaden Kopas who were also joined by Kaden’s father, Wes Kopas of Coronation, Ab..

Racers were given a participant bag which included goodies from various businesses and organizations as well as a “I Survived ManHunter” t-shirts.

All proceeds from this event, which came to just under $8000, go to the Send a Kid to Camp Fund which allows low income families to send their kids to a week-long camp at CSR as well as the Staff Scholarship Fund which provides support to staff who volunteer their time to youth at camp.

God keep our land, glorious and free. o Canada, we stand on guard for thee! o Canada, we stand on guard for thee!

The adoption of a distinctive national flag in 1965 effectively ended almost a hundred years of debate on the issue, in Parliament as elsewhere in the country.

Until that year, the official flag of Canada was the Royal Union Flag. Its claim was not unchallenged, however. The Red Ensign, the flag of the Canadian Merchant Maine, was flown on Canadian buildings overseas as authorized by the federal government in 1924 and was often flown unofficially on buildings within Canada as well, including the Peace Tower of the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa.

In Parliament itself much time was spent, in the House and in the committees, on consideration of the design and the implications of a distinctively Canadian flag but no definite action was taken until 1963. In that year the Prime Minster, the Right Honourable Lester B. Pearson declared that Canada would have its own flag within two years. The promise was kept, but not without a great deal of spirited debate in the Commons and indeed, throughout the country.

Tradition and sense of nationhood were effectively synthesized in the design eventually chosen which was approved by resolution of the House of Commons on December 15, 1964 by a vote of 163 to 78, after thirty-three days of debate, and endorsed by resolution of the Senate. On January 28 in the following year, the Queen signed the official proclamation and on February 15 the red and white maple leaf was hoisted on the flag staff of the Peace Tower in Ottawa for the first time.

STETTLER TOWN COUNCIL

Sharebear Playschool hoping for new location Debra Johnston

ECA Review Reporter Over two dozen residents attended the Stettler town council meeting July 16 to show support for Sharebear Playschool Society’s request to rezone a residence for playschool use.

The home in question at 4720 52 Street is currently zoned R2 general district, which would not allow for a playschool.

Sharebear is seeking to have it rezoned to DC5 direct control residential district three which does allow for child care facilities.

Previously, Sharebear Playschool operated in Stettler Elementary School but earlier this year, Clearview School Board opted to offer its own playschool.

Sharebear decided to continue operating on its own in another location.

The home is two blocks from the elementary school. The society looked at other residences but they were more expensive or not well situated.

“We did do our homework,” stated Bernie Jackson of Wells Furniture, who spoke on behalf of the society, “We did go around and try to find something. We just thought this was the safest place for our kids.”

Jackson explained the society petitioned the neighbourhood to see if people were in favour of the location of the playschool and found people generally supportive.

Mayor Dick Richards cautioned the group that direct control puts stricts limits on what can be done on the property. Council must approve all changes or improvements.

Council unanimously voted to carry the motion for first reading of Bylaw 2066015 DC5 to rezone the residence. A public hearing will be held in the upcoming weeks prior to going to second and third reading.

West Stettler playground

The town will bridge the funding gap for the new Kinette playground in West Stettler Park following word that the Kinettes did not receive a grant they had applied for early this year.

The Kinettes fell just over $17,000 short of their $215,000 goal for the project. A $20,000 contribution from the town will ensure the playground equipment can be ordered and in place by late summer.

Mayor Richards noted the project is a joint town/county initiative.

Tenders

Director of Operational Services Melissa Robbins was on hand to answer councillor’s questions regarding two tenders.

With a bid of $390,092, High Mountain Hoe won the award to replace water and sanitary mains in the 48 Avenue and 58 Street area.

When engineering costs of $90,000 and contingency fund of $35,000 are included, the project will cost $515,000, $95,000 below the budgeted $610,000.

Border Paving will be completing several paving and patching projects from July 1 through September 30 after being awarded a $1.3 million tender from the town. The projects include a number of road overlays, sidewalk replacement, patching and pathway paving.

“All pilots please sign the register,” reads a faded sign at the Coronation airport on June 11.

ECA Review/B.Causley

Airport updates Beth Causley

ECA Review

The town approved hiring Read on Roads to apply spray patch and restorative seal to the Coronation airport runway and taxiway and the County of Paintearth has approved to providing 50 per cent of the funding for the project.

The County of Paintearth has been working with a company that provides spray patch crack filling and they were invited to come out and look at the cracks on the Coronation Airport runway to determine if they would be able to provide a suitable repair solution.

Quotes for the patch repair of 50 lineal meters on the taxiway and 1.035 lineal meters on the runway were provided for a total cost of $43,869 with $31,269 of that going to runway crack repairs and the rest, $12,600 going towards the taxiway crack filling and restorative seal.

The town had budgeted $15,000 for crack repairs on the runway for this year and have decided that if the County approves payment of half of the costs for an additional $6,000 they could have the spray patch repair done on the runway and a CPF restorative seal product applied to help preserve the taxiway.

It is unclear how many pilots use the airport, according to Kulyk, as the pilots are meant to sign in a log book located at the airport but many do not. There is a sign at the airport telling pilots to do just that but the sign is so faded it is difficult to read.

The airport is in need of other repairs such as the re-painting of the signs and the rebuilding of the stairs into the weather station building.
