Introduction 2023 Rocky Mountain House Operating & Capital Budget The budget is an annual process that is legislated through the Municipal Government Act (MGA). It is one of the most important documents that the Council prepares and approves along with the Strategic Plan. The purpose of a municipal government is to provide services through taxation and user fees for the residents of a municipality. There is a broad range of services provided which include protective services, operations or public works, utilities, social services, planning and development, recreation, parks, culture which includes community centers and library services. The process begins by setting basic assumptions to build the budget and includes a service level review of all town operations. This enables Council to determine if there are any service level changes required. The budget is then prepared based on the assumptions and direction given by Council and brought back for review and consideration before final approval is given. There are two major components; operating and capital. The operating addresses the daily activities on a year to year basis and the capital addresses the infrastructure and maintenance of this infrastructure over a 10 year period. The Town prepares a five year operating and a ten year capital budget. This long range planning ensures that the municipalities are financially viable and that financing requirements are addressed for the long term. The overall budget for 2023 totals $40.2 million. This consists of $23.9 million for the operating budget and $16.3 million for the capital budget. Operating Budget Overall, the operating budget is $23,873,507 which is an increase from 2022 of $973,205. The majority of the increase is being generated from 3 major sources. A tax increase of $193,000, increased franchise fees of $171,000 and increased interest revenue of $470,000. This is the first year since 2020 that the Town is not dealing with the impact of COVID 19. However, the fallout from the same is being felt with rising inflation. Currently, inflation is sitting at 6.8% for the Province of Alberta. The major areas that have seen an impact of this is on salaries and the cost of capital projects. Quotes received for capital projects in the last year have increased due to supply chain issues, rising transportation costs and inflation on materials and labor. There are several major concepts captured in this budget. They are:
1. Property taxes have been increased for the first time since 2019. They have been maintained at the same dollar value since then in an effort to realign the average tax rates with other municipalities in Alberta. It was not possible to maintain a zero rate increase this year as various expenditures continue to increase. The increase in taxes was buffered by the increase in Franchise Fees. The 2023 budget contains a 2% increase in taxes.

Currently, the CPI is at 6.8% and it is expected that increases in other Municipalities can and will be in a wide range to combat the effects of this on their budgets. Preliminary budget announcements have indicated increases ranging from 1.71% (Grand Prairie) to several in the 3.9% to 5.2% with a high of 7.55% in one municipality. Actual tax rate increases will become more apparent as budget are approved at the end of 2022. A reduced increase of 2% will assist the Town in moving closer to realignment with other comparable towns. Extensive analysis of tax rates, assessments for residential and non-residential as well as how various municipalities split the tax collection between these two has been conducted in 2022. The goal is to determine how the Town can move to being more representative of provincial averages. Further work is still required to ensure the validity of the analysis. Three options have been presented in the tax section for Council to determine how they wish to allocate the increase. 2. Franchise Fees were increased by 3.3% in an effort to offset the potential increase required in property taxes. The rates for the Fortis Franchise Fees are not at the maximum and an increase to cover the equivalent of a 2% tax increase will cost the taxpayers less on an annual basis. This increase will cost an average homeowner $28.98 for the year. 3. The increase in interest revenue is transferred to capital through the reserve transfers. The logic for this is that interest revenue can fluctuate depending on the funds available for investment and interest rates. It is consistent with conservative accounting practices not to use this as operating revenue. Operating expenditures tend to be continuous in nature and in the event that there is a decrease funding for these expenditures would have to be obtained from another source. 4. RCMP contracts reflect a reduction in staffing from 2022 from 14 to 12 RCMP members. The budget for 2023 increased despite this change due to overtime estimates from K Division. The overtime estimates have increased by 100% from $98,000 to $201,000. This was offset by lower non pooled or shared services. 5. A significant review of the Eco Centre and Waste Transfer Station activity has been undertaken and incorporated into the budget for 2023. Several changes were made in 2022 which increased the diversion of waste and provided more curb side options to residents. The new services have been increasingly utilized by residents and are reducing the burden on the waste transfer station. The addition of fees for garbage also increased the revenue stream for this site. Overall, the budget for solid waste has increased by $36,000, however the deficit for this operation has gone from $223,000 to $71,000. This entire service will continue to be monitored in 2023 with the hopes that increased uptake of the curbside services will enable the operation to become self-sustaining. 6. Staffing salaries have been increased based on the 5 year average for CPI in Alberta .This results in an increase of $200,000 for the year. This increase is required to recognize the increases in cost of living for the staff within the Town. Benefits have also increased due to rate increases in
23/12/2022
2023 Approved Budget

the benefit packages and changes to the EI, CPP and LAPP rates. Step increases for staff who are eligible are also included in the budget. 7. There have been no changes to the staffing compliment for 2023. There was a minor decrease of .18 due to some adjustments to part time staffing shifts. Overall, the staffing has decreased from a full time equivalent count of 83.51 in 2020 to 80.83 in 2023. 8. Utility rates have remained the same as previous year. Rocky has the second lowest monthly utility rate for all three services; water, sewer and solid waste. Edson continues to have the lowest rate, with Lacombe and Blackfalds the highest. These rates will be changed for 2024 as a utility rate analysis is scheduled for 2023. This will be to account for the completion of the wastewater treatment facility that is currently under construction. The utility rate analysis takes operating expenses as well as the 10 year capital requirements into consideration to ensure that utility rates will be able to cover the ongoing costs of service for a 10 year period. 9. Debenture payments increased by $98,000 in 2023 to recognize the start of the debenture for the wastewater treatment plant. Also, every year interest and principal payments change by an equal amount since the interest decreases as the principal being paid off increases. This change is $28,000 in 2023.
The highlights and assumptions for 2023 operating budget are: • • • • • • •
2% tax increase on property taxes An increase in Fortis Franchise fees that is equivalent to a 2% increase in property taxes. 3.38% cost of living increases for staffing 0% increase for utility rates for water, wastewater, and solid waste The waste transfer station and Eco Centre are operating in a deficit position. This has been reduced from $223,000 to $71,000 with continued monitoring in 2023. Increased contract costs for RCMP based on the new agreement, overtime estimates and agreement increase. No staffing changes in 2023.
A summary of budget changes is included in the summary section of the budget. This document identifies all changes to the budget from 2022. Capital Budget The capital budget is $16,328,359 for 2023. It is quite large due to the construction of a solid waste treatment facility, which is funded mostly through grants. The remaining projects total $9.23 million which is still quite large. There are several large projects included in 2023. They include: •
There is $100,000 for preliminary design of a new Town Hall. This project will only proceed after discussion and review of the feasibility study that was conducted in 2022 for the Town Hall and Dressing Room Expansion. The existing Town Hall is reaching the end of life and requires either significant upgrades or a new building.

$994,000 for fire equipment that has been planned by the Regional Fire Department The need to replace the vac truck and sewer flusher for $750,000 Continued airport enhancements including proceeding with the terminal building design for a new airport terminal. The addition of blue bin carts for $250,000 for solid waste based on the response from residents for the blue bag recycling program. A major water/sewer replacement program for $1.9 million for 57 Street Close. This street has been deferred since 2021. The infrastructure is aging, and the current line runs under a private property. Other utility projects include looping a damaged line under Highway 11 to improve redundancy and improve water quality as well as purchasing an emergency generator for the water treatment plant. Recreation and parks projects are also high this year to address mechanical issues at the pool totaling $1.4 million as well as adding washrooms to the splash park for $310,000. The pump track is included but will be funded 100% by donations. Once it is complete, it will become an asset of the Town and operating maintenance will become the Town’s responsibility.
Many of these projects are restorative in nature and make it difficult to defer them. This makes having an accurate 10 year plan even more important. The ten year capital plan is a balanced projection. Projects for the 10 years total $73 million dollars and the final reserve balances show $14 million. This plan continues to be a work in progress and additional work is required to identify projects that need to be added in the years further out to ensure that we are capturing an accurate picture of the infrastructure needs of the Town. Additional work will be done in 2023 to identify these requirements to continue refining the 10 year capital plan.

Data for All Municipalities
Municipal Indicators Find out more about how each municipal indicator is calculated and what the results mean Each indicator is intended to measure a specific aspect of the municipality's governance, finances, or community. Each indicator has a defined benchmark. The benchmarks established by Municipal Affairs for each indicator are rules of thumb that provide a general indication of acceptable risk; however, a municipality may have unique circumstances or alternative strategies that justify a different result. Should a municipality flag an indicator, Municipal Affairs allows stakeholders to provide an explanation as to result. This explanation is then published next to the indicator result on the Municipal Indicators’ Dashboard. Indicator and Description

BACKGROUND Overview: The Town of Rocky Mountain House conducts public engagement Administration is presenting the results of the 2023 Pre-Budget engagement survey for Council’s information and to inform Council’s service level and budget discussions. Legislation and Policy: Public Participation Policy 002/2018 effective April 3, 2018. The Public Participation Policy was developed in accordance with Section 215.1 of the Municipal Government Act. It recognizes the value of public participation in decisions that directly impact the public. Public Participation Policy 002/2018 defines the annual budget as a Level 2. This type of engagement could include a survey, poll, open house, public hearing, council meeting delegation or committee of the whole. Regular Council – July 19, 2022 Res 2022-252 Councillor Len Phillips BE IT RESOLVED That Council approve the pre-budget public engagement plan for Budget 2023, as outlined in the RFD with discussed revisions.
Carried
Strategic Plan: Pre-budget engagement and subsequent consideration of public input meets three of Council’s Strategic Objectives. • • •
Partnership and Collaboration; Strengthening our Community; and Long term planning
Communication and Citizen Engagement: Pre-budget public survey is a Type 2 engagement level according to Public Participation Policy 002/2018. This summary of results will be included in a public Council agenda as information. 30 respondents who indicated they wanted to receive a summary of public input will also receive a direct email at that time.

Financial: The cost of advertising and software to conduct this public engagement were accounted for in the 2022 budget. Council decisions arising from public feedback may have financial implications; these would be considered during the 2023 budget deliberations. Organizational: Conducting and analyzing citizen feedback is part of normal workload of Communications Coordinator. Comments: The budget feedback was widely advertised via newsletter, newspaper, radio and social media, website and highway e-sign. The feedback window ran August 17 to September 16. A dedicated email, Budget@trmh.ca, was also published, but no additional written submissions were received. Hard copies and telephone surveys were available, but no requests for these were received. We received 217 survey responses – more than twice as many than in any previous years. The demographics collected show 94% of respondents either live, work or own property in Town (or some combination thereof). Just 6% indicated they live in another municipality, however there is overlap with those who work or manage a business within Town limits. Council can be sure that all respondents are committed to and invested in a positive future for the Town of Rocky Mountain House. Respondents were asked to rank their priorities in order of importance. Globally, roads and Infrastructure, Policing, Trails, Playgrounds and Recreation and Solid Waste Management consistently rank as highest priority for respondents. This is consistent with feedback we’ve heard in previous years.

While Intermunicipal and Intergovernmental cooperation, Communications and public engagement and Bylaw and Policy review and development were ranked lower in the global results, the comments received suggest these are top-of-mind for residents as well. Respondents were also consistently in favour of fee-for-service, where users pay for the services they use rather than have Town apply an overall decrease in service or increase in base rates. This was especially evident with regards to economic development initiatives, where 78% of respondents prefer a user-pay model. Recreation and Emergency services also yielded over 65% preference for user-pay. Meanwhile, slightly less than 50% of respondents would prefer blanket service or fee adjustments for municipal infrastructure and utilities. Most common requests from survey comments are: • • • •

• • • •
Weekly garbage collection/free garbage disposal at Eco Centre Aquatic Centre upgrades (ie: lazy river, slides) Increased policing / follow-up on complaints Consistent application of bylaws/policies
Comments also reflect that some residents are pleased with Town services and the compose program in particular. It is evident by the comments that not all respondents understand what is a municipal responsibility and what lies with provincial and federal governments, but Council should still consider this input and how it can effectively advocate on behalf of its residents. All comments received are attached to this report. Alternatives: 1. BE IT RESOLVED THAT Council accept this report for information. 2. BE IT RESOLVED THAT Council direct Administration to conduct further public engagement ahead of the 2023 budget [include type, scope, dates, etc.]. Recommended Alternative: 1.

Budget 2023: public input survey Thank you for participating in the pre-budget engagement survey for the 2023 Town of Rocky Mountain House budget. This survey is designed to gauge public understanding of and support for Town services. Your feedback is important and will help Council establish priorities for the year ahead. In 2022, Rocky Mountain House will collect $9,146,001 in property taxes and a further $13,714,302 from cost-sharing agreements, grants, user fees and facility rentals, for a total operating budget of $22,860,303. The Town of Rocky Mountain House also collects Provincial School Tax on behalf of the Government of Alberta, and Seniors Housing funds. Those amounts are taken out of the Town's general revenue ledger and transferred to the province and the Seniors Housing Foundation. In 2022, this will account for about $2.8 million. That leaves about $20 million to be allocated to different municipal services, departments and initiatives. This fall, Council will review the 2022 expenses and service levels and public input to establish its 2023 budget. As you complete this survey, please keep in mind that some Town programs and services are legislated. This means the Town is mandated to provide them as per the Municipal Government Act. Other programs and services are discretionary, which means Rocky Mountain House citizens and councils have identified a need or desire to offer those services in our community. This is where your input matters most. Municipalities cannot turn a profit on taxes or utilities, or run a deficit budget. The Town of Rocky Mountain House may only collect the amount of property taxes required to fund its balanced budget. What to expect from this survey The Municipal Services section asks for your feedback on existing programs and services. The Your Priorities section asks you to share what municipal services/programs are most important to you. You will also have an opportunity to submit additional comments here. The Demographics section gathers basic information on where you live/how you interact with the Town of Rocky Mountain House. No personal information is collected or connected to your survey answers. However, if you wish to receive a summary of survey results please enter your email address when prompted at the end of this survey.

Not hiring idiots to plan shit in this town, main street with raised sidewalks and forgotten rails... fail, Not smart enough to realize a new fire suppression system wouldn't work with a 80 year old system at the arena... fail Building a road to creekside through a muskeg without raising the road and wondering why it flooded... fail.

The walking path seems incomplete, strange to me that we expended along a busy highway instead of down 60th/other areas. If the dog park is removed and not replaced I will be extremely unhappy, and I will fight for a new dog park. The focus is on children here, what about us residents without kids? Maybe get rid of a few parks to have better amenities, like a community garden or a community area that IS NOT focused on kids. I also want to acknowledge that these questions are extreme and biased. You ask how we feel about the service, make us explain what we want or don't want and then immediately ask if we want to pay more, lose (what VERY little programs and services we have) or no opinion. This data will be incredibly inaccurate because of the bias its written in. Also, the recreation centre cost is embarrassing. Should have let a company sponsor it instead of allowing egos to get in the way.

Road maintenance ie filling pot holes, repaving road, long term fixes not quick fixes. There have been more sidewalks put in which I think is a huge step in the right direction.
9/16/2022 6:16 PM

The roads in town are horrible and the lines on the road do not last long. So something a bit more longer lasting road line wise and focus more on fixing the roads during the spring and summer. Better to just re-do the road instead of just a quick patch that doesn't last long. Get our roads caught up and then worry about new building projects and events afterwards.

Garbage collection should be weekly. Having a bin for recycling instead of bags makes more sense than the green bin. We could just have a community compost pile available for grass clippings etc. This should not require an increase if the green bins are utilized for recycling

Roads need better maintenance in winter with snow removal. Summer alleys need to be taken better care of with the grader to fix pot holes etc. summer roads need more repair and not just small patched jobs. Should have blue recycle bins instead of clear plastic bags. Town residents should not have to pay extra to go to the dump for stuff and we shouldn’t have to pay a sewage fee for water as not all of it goes into the sewage system.

Improving roads. The bottle depot road is very busy and still does. It have a proper Center line and sidewalks through to the south end businesses. A lot of foot traffic travels this path. Several times this year I have hit nasty pot holes near major intersections. The lights by fas gas currently have a very nasty pot hole.

Pick up the damn garbage weekly
9/7/2022 6:30 AM

I want WEEKLY garbage pick up year round. I understand that issues between the Town and County caused the fall of the joint cost share project. It is not right or fair however that as citizens who had no part in the disagreement between the two parties we now have to deal with the outfall from that. Your claim is that you are saving the community money. You may be saving the money that you were having to pay to the County because you no longer have that agreement. In fact however it is more expensive now to be completely on your own.

Road need better maintenance. Snow removal was not good last year never experienced that late of snow removal in this town before. Charging for the dump. Having the recycling locked up. Not allowing charity to be used for what it was given. The fact that Kennedy’s charity was not approved is embarrassing and did we not learn from the Pidhernys embarrassment. No where to donate like we had at the dump. A lot of more stuff will go to the landfills if donating isn’t easily accessible. The charity shops in town only can take so much and there’s only two. As for option 3 I’d rather the money used properly. We pay enough property taxes in this town as is.

Household garbage pick up should remain weekly. Residents are being charged the same amount for less service. I also think the town should take the recycling bins out from behind locked gates and make it accessible to the residents who can’t make it there during business hours. Why have you made it so inaccessible but still want residents to recycle? Yes you pick up residentially bi-weekly but it’s limited how much a resident can put out. The rates/taxes continue to go up but the residents receive less and less for their money.

Better maintenance of the roads- we have many potholes that need fixed properly. More walking paths or better connected ones.

The roads The recycling program needs actual bins for homeowner storage and pickup. The compost program is gross. I got on board and started to be diligent with my recycling and composting to reduce the snout of garbage in my house hold and I ended up with a compost bin the smelled so bad I had to move it out to the street because that was all we could smell while sitting on our deck. THEN the amount of maggots that it produced attracted ever crow in the neighbourhood and surrounding area. It was disgusting and there must be a better way. Why can’t we use compost bags? As for question number 3 I’m not answering it because I don’t feel like anything should be canceled or that I should have to pay more to make this service better.

absolute nightmare drinking around town. I drive a 4x4, I cannot imagine how it was to drive in a small car. Proper maintenance being done to preserve our roads. 60th street seemed fine, there are several other roads that could have benefitted from maintenance before 60st. Council seems to be consistently mismanaging tax payers dollars. It is very frustrating and really makes a person heavily contemplate moving away from Rocky. The transfer station fiasco was a complete nightmare. The current waste schedule is just another fiasco. This is not going to work for large families, or for people who reside in mobile home parks who don’t even get a green compost bin.

Infrastructure is generally ok. Question 3 is completely biased and very poor. The option of a program that benefits most of the community or improves look and feel of a community should be paid by the community as a whole. Very poor and leading wording.

The swimming pool needs more for kids. From toys to letting kids of any age go down with a parent. You realize we are the only pool in Central Alberta that doesn't let young kids go down the slide with there parents? And you have to be a specific age and height? What about some splash toys in it like Sylvan. Remove garbage pick up to every other week and then start charging to drop off extra bag, that genius... NOT. Why do we just slap lipstick on the pig? How about a trail all along the river? What about updating the skate park for the kids. Bathrooms at the splash park (out houses, you all need to get out more) Our TOWN NEEDS TO DO BETTER at pretty much everything sadly. Step up our game. In respect to questions 3, get better.... look for more funding, better allocate funds, do better. Do so much each year. You shouldn't have to take away other things, not should we have to pay more given what we pay for already.

This question is nuts, how would I know? Why are there not options? Lets get rid of FCSS, unless someone can prove they actually help the community? Or lets ask the County for help, give them the airport, and RCMP, and whatever else program that is suffering because of a lack of fiscal responsibility the town demonstrates.

What programs are there to eliminate? This town has very little to offer it’s residents and appears to decrease with each year.

Would like to see more things to do in the town besides going swimming or the tennis court. We have the arena but I feel mostly the hockey teams use them and that's it. As for the curling rink I find that only the curling teams play on them more than regular towns folk for everyday use. If that isn't the case then more information for the public to know when to use. Would be cool to have escape rooms, paintball course or hatchet throwing places.

I wonder if it would be cheaper to hire a third party for this? Lets make sure we as a community are getting what we're paying for, not just with summer students but in all our services. The fact that we had to fundraise for a spray park is laughable when I look at the amount I pay in taxes!

The pool has needed fixed and updated for a long time. I used to swim there in the morning and be in ice cold water or shower where a child would have burnt and the town continues to fail the pool just fix it. Again the charity that was to fix the recreation facility’s that was denied from the Kennedy’s chairlift is more then pathetic. Skate park needs updating or fixing, the dog park being removed is also stupid. Having a kids pump track near the Highway is stupid. The spray park by the highway is stupid. The price for a swimming and rec pass is over priced. Look at any other community and they go hand in hand and don’t cost so much. Do you not want family’s to be able to afford to enjoy our rec centers. The fact that the fair wasn’t a thing this year annoys me and that it was all taken out of town. Another way to kill our town off. There is no community in this town not much rec services besides the pool and rink. The rink seating in the small arena is uncomfortable and cold and was a waste of money. I’d rather you accept charity when given and use our taxes more wisely instead of a terrible main street.

The pool is in disrepair and has been allowed to remain that way while residents continue to pay the same amount. The change rooms are not cleaned, the benches inside are duct taped together and the showers are scalding hot. Other than that what recreational facilities are there? The gym at the arena is more expensive to use than the private gyms and less accessible to people who work during the day. Most of the recreational activities in this town are aimed at the few housewives in the area.

Cleaning the gym equipment at the rec Center, there are sweat and dust and hair all over machines. Swimming pool upgrades, suit dryers in change rooms, better floor tiling, no leaking roofs, more thorough cleaning. More children’s swimming lessons options, they fill so fast. And more experienced life guards teaching lessons, it’s clear teenagers hired struggle with properly teaching skills to young children. Park upgrades, we will in a naturally beautiful community yet have no natural themed parks for young children to play. The soccer fields are also a complete disaster with weeds growing higher then some children’s calves. I realize the town handed over the fields to the school division but it is an absolute embarrassment that our town hosts other communities to play here and youth either twist ankles in huge holes or lose games because the ball literally doesn’t roll.

There needs to give to the people with disabilities also as they are left out of all and most can't afford to get passes for the pool and gym and don't qualify for the 75+ free and lots aren't on aisha either. These need to include the people with the disabilities plaque for their vehicles these people need to be included also. Also I think there should be free yearly passes given to the doctors so they can help out the severely obses people also as most of them can afford passes either and we are missing out on these people and there's nothing to help them or encourage them to get healthier

Having Peace Officers in town is so important. I feel safer knowing I can call and get help or get answers to my questions. Assistance is much quicker than if we just had RCMP. They also promote positive behavior especially in minors. They educate which encourages making better choices.

How about, we don't remove provincially funded positions and Council does their homework before budget. Big ask, I know. The relationship between the town and county for fire is embarrassing, Councillor Aulds comments about fire trucks is EVEN WORSE. He spews misinformation and no one stops him. The peace officer program should be expanded, two (maybe three) bylaw enforcers is unfortunate. Perhaps the Mayor can leave that program alone? Just because she is the Mayor doesn't mean she's above the law (no matter what she thinks haha).

Our emergency services are fucking outstanding. In spite of chronic provincial underfunding, we somehow have some of the best services available anywhere in the province. I remain deeply concerned and worried about Ambulance and emergency health service availability, given the current govt's disastrous mishandling/underfunding of ambulance dispatch and ER services. It's critically important for our community (and our guests) that these services remain available 24/7/365.

I am note sure. Rocky has not had new industrial investment and very little retail or residential development in over 10 years. I don't know where the problem lies, but we are surrounded by growing communities that are building stores and houses, but not here.
9/16/2022 1:57 PM

More approval that allows new businesses to come in and more zoning for land to build more businesses

Some bylaws are unclear and when development permits are required is unclear and confusing.
9/16/2022 9:11 AM

Planning should include action. Properties have sat vacant or empty for far too long. Buildings on Main Street (that we spent so much on revitalizing) have been empty for decades. I would bet that a lot of the vacant properties would not pass a building code inspection.
9/14/2022 8:24 PM

Building permits it is like they don’t want to issue them poor communication

I’m not sure how this is going now. Historically, the Town has done a very poor job of this. While other communities flourished, ours has not. Serious reflection on who and what is getting in the way of development is required. Individual interests must not supersede that of the community. If we don’t attract new base economy business’ our community is going to die. Get along! Work together with other governing bodies and solicit and act on the ideas in the community.

I have seen promotion of spend local which is good, Marketplace on Main is wonderful, but stores need to be willing to be open the hours that their customers are looking for (after 5:00 PM). Main Street landowners need to be willing to invest in their own properties. I don't know what the Town can do about that. I think the Town may have to invest in an industrial Park, or actually get some land ready for retail investment. Land developers seem to avoid the area.

Are there incentives to bring in new, diverse businesses, or expand tourism? We need to invest in those that want to invest here as well. Rocky feels very closed off to bringing new anything into the scope and there have been some bad decisions made in the past. We have a bad reputation, it's time to change that.

I think we’re headed in the right direction. More community involvement in things like what Sylvan Lake does would be nice (ie: flannel and feast, festival of trees on the lake, etc). I realize they have a better location for lake front activities, but we could have awesome things happen in town to draw tourism and engage community members. A fall harvest dinner would be nice, or teaming up with the local brewery to have activities on Main Street would be good!

Rocky Mountain House Council must realize we are in a period of dramatic transition for this region, and begin taking steps to make our area a destination for business and development in the new economy. I have seen little to no effort or vision surrounding this critical issue. We have to realize this is no long "business as usual", and no matter how many fucking lanes we add to the highway, it will not save us from the systemic problems we face in the new economy. We have everything we need to succeed in this area, but we lack the vision (or maybe comprehension?) to get there. Please, please engage with the public more about this. Wishing for a coal mine or oil and gas to save us is not a substitute for real policy. We must also realize that social policy IS economic policy. No one wants to move to an area with a racism/sexism/hate problem. Take these issues more seriously, please. We're all tired of being a provincial/national embarrassment, and it is chasing people and business away from the area.

Honestly, most communities throughout Alberta made the changes we are going through years ago. Unfortunately, both leaving the Regional Waste Agreement with Clearwater County and then reducing garbage pick up was done without engaging or educating the residents before taking action. The process was done very poorly and has created lack of trust in Council and Staff.

not impressed with every other week garbage pick up. We were told there would be no additional cost to having the recycle program, but waste removal being cut in half for the same cost is definitely more costly. Having to pay to take garbage to the dump feels a lot like a cash grab especially since scheduled pick up was decreased.

The week the garbage switched bi-weekly there were hundreds of garbage cans out on the street. Many were full or overflowing. This is probably poor advertising. How are residence going to manage solid waste every 2 weeks? I am a fan of compost and blue bags. Good call. Charging at the eco centre for garbage that has to go there instead of roadside seems a bit much.

waste/compost pile at the dump. Charging 3 dollars per bag to recoup cost from the mess of moving across town for a summer is ridiculous paying more for less service. Would also happily go back to looking after my own recycling again. If things stay the way they are we will likely see people dumping their waste in the county rather than pay to take it to the dump.

I am disappointed in the "locked down" Eco-Centre. I miss being able to take my recycling in after supper. I wonder if there have been actual cost savings based on the Eco-Centre having moved from its original location and back again and having residents needing a plastic card to prove eligibility. Moreover, with the closure of the re-use shed, many of those items will end up in the landfill.

I am so happy with our initiative to reduce waste. I enjoy the blue bag recycling and green bins. I am not satisfied with the biweekly garbage pick-up coming in September. Many places that do this are given options to the size of their garbage bins. Many places also just have much larger garbage bins. Some places have a fee to have a larger garbage bin. I would be completely okay with this. Our family of 6 will not be able to make it 2 weeks. We will likely use my mother's garbage to add to. But now I am transporting waste weekly to her garbage and we don't own a truck. We will deal with this. But what will others do? What I am more concerned about is the amount of garbage that will accumulate in our community. I don't want to pick up extra garbage because we will be charged for it at the dump already. My husband used to take our daughters to make forts in different parts of Rocky and pick up the garbage. He stopped doing that when we had to pay for our garbage. Plus we have to put a tarp down in

I’m happy with the recycling and green bin. But I’m displeased that we are alternating weeks for garbage with the added cost to bring a bag of garbage into the dump.

HA don't even get me started on this area. What a nightmare. Take away our garbage each week but not the cost and then charge us at the waste transfer site as well. And won't even hand out blue bins, instead we are told to put our recycle in blue bags that blow down the street. What a joke.

As stated before I’m very unhappy with how the recycling is inaccessible to residents who are unable to get there within their specific times. And that the garbage pick up should continue to be weekly or the monthly cost should be decreased to reflect this. The one thing you can count on with this town is that services with decrease but how much it cost will continue to increase.

The old waste management site was working just fine. People from town and county could utilize the site. County people would bring their waste in at least once a week and then would shop locally. Closing the original site is a big slap in the face to county residents. It worked fine and could have continued to work for both town and country if the town and county counsellors had worked together.

People who do not have their full allotment of weekly garbage used up should get a rebate, or a free large item pass at the transfer site, or something. Paying the same for 1 bag picked up a month as someone that puts out a bin with 4 bags every week really isn't fair.

our vehicle and it was a big enough hassle anyway without being charged for it. We now leave garbage. I don't see people at the river picking garbage like we used to either. I see a LOT more garbage in our community. I'm sure we can expect the amount of garbage to rise significantly. This is not the initiative we are going for, so I think we have to be careful. I think the people of Rocky needed more say in biweekly garbage pickup - options for bigger garbage bins with something like a $120 fee added to our yearly garbage pickup perhaps. I would gladly pay... as I really don't have the time to be transporting my garbage to my mother's house. Frustrating. Yes, I wish we had a say in the matter. Many people don't need to pay more taxes because their garbage bin size is just fine. But I see so many people barely making it week to week and I bet these same people don't have the time to take out their garbage every other week.

No, I would not rather pay more for this service to make it better just make it better.

I feel that the transfer station should not be charging fees to residents to dispose of household garbage. The fees should be built in to taxes and utility bills.

Continue with weekly black bin pickup year round, and drop the newly introduced fees at the dump. The fees are going to be a disincentive for people to dispose of waste properly. The amount of illegal dumping had already increased.

Eliminate curb side pick up for everything, or go back to just garbage pickup. The amount it costs to use the transfer station is ridiculous. Trying to dispose of wood scraps and 2 extra bags of garbage is insane. The staff is not prepared. I would rather take my own recycling and "compost" items in than pay for curbside, if we have to pay for extra amounts anyways.

Do not take away the weekly pick ups for garbage. As a family of 5 it was hard enough trying to maintain garbage with weekly, I started recycling but still can't meet what it is with garbage only getting picked up every second week. And to be charged extra is observed when we pay higher taxes that most towns

A Town the size of Rocky should of thought about a blue cart before a green cart, there a major cities that are doing pilot projects in small areas to test the program before doing a full city wide service. This also would of been great if it went out for a public vote to see what service that the residents would find more beneficial & use, not only to a very small majority that actually was pushing for the compost bins at everyone's house.

The pettiness in the town council meetings needs to stop. Respect for the mayor should be there. The councilors should have a level of education and not make a squabble about how long they are in a meeting for and being paid a minimum of 3 hours. They chose this position. The fact that the mayor was in a local store and encouraging it made me think that she was making a change and then someone complained and tried to get her removed. In my opinion that councilor should be removed. The fact that the mayor was encouraging our town businesses made me very happy and her social media engagement is professional and makes me proud of my mayor.

Over the past few years Town Council and CAO has created animosity with our neighbours, with residents, and now even within Council itself. The Town is not growing, and hasn't grown in over a decade when much of Alberta has grown around us. The population is getting older, and there seems to be fewer reasons for young families to come here. When previous Councils made it difficult for developers and businesses to come here 15 or 20 years ago, the result today is that we don't have those taxpaying developments or jobs. There are long-term consequences to saying "no" to so much, to trying to protect current interests of a small group of landowners or business owners. Will this be a budget that helps the community attract people and investment, or is it a budget just slow down the shrinking on the vine. Does it have a vision of what Council wants Rocky to become, or is it just to hold the budget steady? No growth in tax base for years makes it very difficult to continue to provide even the current services.

Please think about the incoming generation, the students of today, as they aproach our stage of life as adults and join the workforce and become an integral part of the community. If they are not set-up in a safe space that reflects their ideals, they will leave and they won't come back. Eventually, the aging population of this town will need the younger more-progressive folks to maintain the economy and community; to leave them out of these important conversations is a grave mistake. There are many loud voices in the community that gather a lot of attention, but the voices in-between are more important that Rocky's facebook groups would make it seem.

Budget 2023: public input survey It seems to me the town's priority should always favour infrastructure (roads, water, sewer, etc.) Over services and facilities. The majority seem to be funding programs, facilities, and services that do not always benefit the majority, ie the airport, chamber of commerce, and arena.

I struggled with your survey comments as you seem to drive only 1 option, either cut a program or add fees. How does the average taxpayer know the costs of cutting certain programs and the repercussions? Hopefully council and admin don't use the survey results as a blanket mandate to cut services. It is councils and admins job to review the top survey needs and then communicate options.

Budget Summary - Rocky Mountain House General Tax revenue is based on the 2022 assessment and rates. New Assessment has not been received at this date. It will be provided in late January and the tax revenue will be recalculated based on final assessments. The Cost of Living for Alberta is projected at 6.2% for November 2022. https://economicdashboard.alberta.ca/ConsumerPriceIndexChange Typically, property tax increases are based on the COLA for the Province of Alberta. A 6.2% increase would generate approximately $564,000 new tax dollars. Due to the economic climate which has been affected by the downturn in oil and gas and COVID, the tax increase for 2023 is set at 2%. This will generate approximately 182,000 in new taxes. The Fortis franchise fees have also been increased to generate $183,600. The remaining difference in Fortis Franchise fees reflects changes in consumption and estimates. Interest rates have been increasing during 2022. This will generate $650,000 or an increase of $470,000. Interest earned is always transferred to reserves. This is done to avoid a loss of operating revenue in the event that interest rates decline. The interest rates are also estimated conservatively based on current rates when the budget is prepared. The Educational requisition has not been received at this time. A 2% estimated increase has been included. The revenue and expenditure are matched so they will be adjusted prior to April when the property tax rates are set. Interest revenue based on current rates and all transferred to capital. Local improvement revenue repayments have been completed these are offset by expenditure payments that are either collected or prepaid. Franchise fees are based on consumption estimates provided by Fortis and ATCO. Fortis fees cover the cost of street lighting and the balance is transferred to capital. Expenses: Requisitions for education and seniors match the revenues as these are a flow through. Municipalities collect these taxes and pay them on to Education and Seniors. The transfer to capital has increased. There are several components within this. The interest revenue has increased. Also the strategy discussed of adding 30,000 every year has also been added. The goal is to eventually reach a transfer equal to amortization for asset replacement. This year we are recording several projects that are one time in nature that will be expensed at year end rather than showing them in capital. The transfer has been reduced by these amounts and they are shown as individual line items. This removes the fluctuation of one time projects on the tax base. Changes in debt principal reflect the increase in principal payments that are offset by corresponding decreases in interest charges which are expensed.

Description Corporate Services consists of two major functions – finance and human resources: Financial services such as treasury functions, banking, utilities, property taxation, accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, assessment, financial reporting, budgeting, grant management, tangible capital asset financial management, insurance and cemetery administration. Human Resources includes recruitment, policy development, staffing management, benefit administration and personnel management including performance evaluations, leadership training and development, employee wellness and labor relations.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Transferred tax and receivables penalties and fines to Corporate Services Expenses: Assessment contract has been adjusted to new contract amount. Postage reduced to reflect actuals from prior years. It is projected that postage will continue to fall with the move to electronic mailing for taxes, utilities and accounts payable. Office equipment and maintenance has been reduced. The capital budget contains a request for a new postage meter and envelope stuffer. The existing ones are prone to breakdowns and require ongoing servicing.

Description Information Technology is managed through an outsourced contract. Information Systems maintains the electronic infrastructure throughout the organization. This consists of software, hardware such as computers, servers, cloud support, security and backup systems, technology planning and procurement and technical support.
Proposed Changes: Revenues:
Expenses: Major categories are ongoing replacement and maintenance of systems and licensing for various software programs in use throughout the organization. In 2021 Council electronic devices were not replaced after the election. This is typically done on a four year cycle however, Council choose to continue using the existing devices. There is also an allocation charge to Utilities for services as Utilities are self funding. The equipment budget was reduced by $20,000 to reflect past year purchases. It was not being fully expended every year.

Description The RCMP provides policing services to the Town of Rocky Mountain House. The force consists of 12 members which are funded at 70%, two School Resource Officers that are cost shared with the County and the School Division and 5 clerical staff that are also shared with the County. The building is shared with the Provincial RCMP as well as the Sherriff detachment. The Town’s portion of the building costs is 41%.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Provincial grant for RCMP funding - agreement was resigned. 2022 amount is as per the contract. Local Operating grants are the funds billed to the School Division and Clearwater County for the SRO positions. The County pays 50% of the 5 RCMP clerk positions. The funding revenue for SRO's has increased due to the increases in the RCMP contract. Expenses: RCMP contract costs have increased by $89,000. This reflects the changes to salaries based on the contract settlement and the projection provided by K Division for overtime and non-pooled costs.

Description The Bylaw or Community Enforcement department consists of three Peace Officers. This department is responsible for the enforcement of all bylaws within the Town. This includes business licensing, animal control, parking, nuisance and unsightly premises as well as traffic enforcement and violations. They assist other departments when required with serving documents or providing support.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Provincial fine revenue is not received when tickets issued. Funds are not released by the Province until the ticket is paid. This can be delayed until renewal of drivers licenses. Expenses: Subscriptions increased to cover safety link - officer monitoring. Communications budget increased to cover internet access in vehicles.

Airport (jlindsay)`
Description The Rocky Airport is a shared operation with Clearwater County. The airport is located 5.6 km north northeast of Rocky Mountain House and is jointly owned by the Town of Rocky Mountain House and Clearwater County. The airport has a licensed 5,000 ft (1,524 m) runway, with the existing runway surface extending 6,000 ft (1,828 m) over gravel base. The Rocky Mountain House Airport welcomes private and commercial aircraft year-round. The Rocky Mountain House Airshow takes place every two to three years and draws thousands of spectators from across Alberta.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Revenue consists of lease rentals for hangars and fuel surcharge. Additional rental included in 2022 for rental of house to airport manager. Fuel sales have been increased based on actual revenue which has almost doubled from previous years. County contributes 50% of net operating costs as well as a $15,000 capital transfer to the airport reserve. The County contributions are higher in 2023 due to several one time maintenance projects for the airport. These have not been recorded as capital as they are maintenance in nature. They are expensed in the 33-10 Airport Building budget. They consist of completion of the house renovations such as kitchen upgrades, shop furnace and water heater replacement and shop overhead doors. Expenses: Salaries and benefits contain a full time airport manager, part time airport staff for coverage, administrative overhead and operations salaries for mechanical support and public works salaries for assistance with snow removal. Materials and supplies was increased by 2,000 for signs. Insurance and fuel have been increased based on 2022 actuals to October.

Description The Town operates it's own water treatment plant and water distribution system. This cost center deals with the sale of residential and bulk water, utility costs and administration of these systems.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Local improvement levies adjusted in 2021 to reflect remaining local improvement. It will be completed in 2025. Utility revenue adjusted based on number of accounts. Consumption estimates remain the same. Prior year revenue has also been reviewed in determining estimates. Expenses: Memberships increased due to transfer of AWWA and AWWOA memberships from Operations. Professional Consulting increased to reflect two operating projects for utility rate modelling (split with Waste Water) for $25,000 to determine the required rates to fund water and sewer operating and capital expenditures over the next 10 years and with the operationalization of the new Waste Water Treatment plant in 2025 and the Receiving Water Body study for 32,000. These projects are listed here because they are not capital in nature and will be expensed in the 2022 year end. The funds for these projects is from the reserves and is shown as a reduction in the reserve transfer.

Description The Town operates its own water distribution network, including 53 km of pipe needed to convey water throughout town. There are approximately 2,6800 home and business service connections, ~ 272 fire hydrants for fire fighting and flushing, ~778 valves, as well as other appurtenances.
Proposed Changes: Revenues:
Expenses: Contracted repairs increased to for one time replacement of the distribution pump. This is not a capital project and needs to be expensed at year end. Water valve/hydrants replacements has been increased. Contracted building maintenance budget was reduced in 2022 from 85,000 to 0. Need to add funds based on 2022 actual costs. Materials and supply budgets decreased slightly based on 2022 actuals.

Description The reservoir provides the bulk of treated (potable) water storage for town. There are up to 4,500 m3 stored here, with up to another 1,500 m3 at the Water Treatment Plant’s Clearwell. The reservoir is “open circuit” with the distribution system, each day, some water is pumped out of the reservoir to help meet peak demand and to turn the water over. Then, at night, the reservoir is refilled from the distribution system, ready for the next day. There is no backup generation at the Water Treatment Plant. During a power outage, the reservoir will start the back-up diesel driven pump contained within, and use the stored water there to maintain pressure throughout the Town’s distribution system. This pump can also be used to supply fire flows above and beyond what the seven electric distribution pumps (four at the plant, three at the reservoir) can supply. The diesel can out pump all seven combined.

Description Sanitary sewage flows downhill through the collection pipes. Once it arrives at a geographical low point, it must be pumped or "lifted" to a geographical high point to resume it journey by gravity. There are five sewage lift stations around town which accomplish that pumping.
Proposed Changes: Revenues:
Expenses: Contract repairs increased to cover operating one time project for lift station pump replacement. Power adjusted to reflect 2022 actual costs.

Description Solid Waste collection services include residential curbside cart waste collection and organic green carts, and hauling. This program was managed jointly by the Regional Waste Authority but moved to Town only operations in 2020. A contract for curbside pickup has been entered into with a contractor. A solid waste audit is planned for 2023 to compare to the original waste audit conducted prior to the implementation of these programs. This will help to determine diversion from the landfill is successful and identify the changes. The Town is now only responsible for residential waste. Previously, there were charges to commercial customers for tippage. This has all been move to commercial haulers will now pickup and charge tippage fees to commercial customers.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: There have been several changes in 2022 for solid waste. Curbside pickup has been increased to offer three streams; garbage, recycling and organics. The purpose of this is to divert recyclable and organic material from landfills. The additional services have been provided with no increase to the monthly cost. The Eco Centre and Waste Transfer station continue to operate. It is hoped that with the implementation of curbside recycling the use of the Eco centre recycling will decline. The base users for this service will end up being commercial business's that do not have cardboard recycling bins on their premises. The Waste Transfer Station implemented charges for garbage drop off in 2022. This was to try to create break even for the Eco Centre and Waste Transfer Centre. Also, with curbside options, the residential need for use of this site has gone down. The majority of use will now come from commercial business's and they should be paying for garbage if they do not have a commercial bin on their premises. Business's pay $20 per month for the use of the Eco Centre for recycling. Expenses: Costs and activity have been extensively analyzed during 2022 to determine how the operation is doing and how use of the services is changing. This will continue to be monitored into 2023. The changes to all three programs have resulted in savings of $151,000 in the 2023 budget. It is planned to purchase blue bins for residential recycling in the 2023 capital budget.

Description Waste Transfer Station in Rocky Mountain House
Proposed Changes: Revenues: The monthly residential fee is just over $27 for garbage. A portion of that has been allocated to the Eco Centre and Waste Transfer Station. In 2022 the Eco Centre was allocated $2 and the balance to Waste Transfer Station. In 2023 this fee has been split equally to $5 for each program. This changed the residential revenue for Waste Transfer Station from $297,600 to $148,800. There is now a fee for garbage and this has been estimated to be $78,000 for the year. 2022 is averaging approximately $6,500 per month in fees. The majority of this is coming from commercial businesses. Commercial properties typically have a garbage bin, but if there is not room they would use the waste transfer station. This creates equity for business that already pay for garbage contracts. There are 3 streams of curbside pickup for residents consisting of garbage, recycling and organics. If they require additional services, it is now on a pay per use basis. Commercial business's are charged $20 per month for solid waste. Since the Waste Transfer Station now charges for garbage, the entire portion has been allocated to the Eco Centre for recycling. Expenses: Contracted services consist of the base contract to manage the Eco Centre and Waste Transfer Station as well as hauling and tippage fees. The hauling and tippage fees have gone down from 2022 based on decreased volume at the Waste Transfer Station. Contracted services budget has been revised based on the tracking and analysis of use at the recycling centre. These costs are based on actual tonnage form 2022 projected to the end of the year. Monitoring of costs and activity will continue in 2023.

Description The Town operates the Eco Centre in Rocky Mountain House. There is an external contractor operating both the Eco Centre and the Waste Transfer Station. The contract is split between these two programs. There is also a yard waste site that allows for dropping off of yard waste such as grass clippings and trees and other organic materials.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: There will be charges to use the waste transfer station and the recycling depot use is included in the flat rate for solid waste. County residents will be able to use the depot on a fee for service basis. The monthly residential fee is just over $27 for garbage. A portion of that has been allocated to the Eco Centre and Waste Transfer Station. In 2022 the Eco Centre was allocated $2 and the balance to Waste Transfer Station. In 2023 this fee has been split equally to $5 for each program. This changed the residential revenue for Eco Centre from $59,500 to $148,800 Commercial business's are charged $20 per month for solid waste. Since the Waste Transfer Station now charges for garbage, the entire portion has been allocated to the Eco Centre for recycling. Expenses: Contracted services budget has been revised based on the tracking and analysis of use at the recycling centre. These costs are based on actual tonnage form 2022 projected to the end of the year. Monitoring of costs and activity will continue in 2023. Utilities adjusted based on actual use in 2022.

Description FCSS is a partnership between the Province, County and Town. It provides preventative social programs within the community and services Rocky Mountain House, Clearwater County and Caroline. Programs are delivered either through staff or eligible agencies and organizations. The department has been set up to be self balancing with any surplus funds put into grant programs.
Proposed Changes: Revenues:
Expenses: FCSS budgets are required to balance to zero every year. Funds reallocated within the department for various expenses and programs. Any unused funds are assigned to grant programs. Board Honorariums have been removed from the FCSS budget as these costs are for Town appointed representatives. A new department has been created to cover FCSS costs that are the responsibility of the Town. Various travel and training budgets have been revised to recognize use of the Town SUV for travel and to allocate funds for increased training opportunities for the FCSS manager.

Description This building is the old Recreation Building. It has been empty for some time and was listed for sale. Recently, the Native Friendship Centre had a fire and has rented the building until the end of March 2022. Building maintenance, utilities and some of the building staff time has been charged here. Previously, this building was in Recreation as it was empty and listed for sale. It has been moved to Planning & Development and placed under the Public Rentals for Buildings.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Building is no longer being leased. Expenses: Expenditures reduced to maintenance of the building to ensure that it remains functional and safe.

Description Transferred land lease revenue here from Recreation. This department records revenues received from any land leases to the community for property that is not being used for municipal purposes. Example would be rental of land for farming or other functions.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Transferred lease rental income from Administration to this cost centre. It is a better reflection of revenues. Revenues have been reduced by the cost of property taxes on these properties. The new assessor reviewed the various properties and municipally owned land is normally tax exempt. If there is a lease for a commercial enterprise this property becomes taxable. Several properties were reclassified in 2022 based on this information. Once the leases come due, they will be amended to recognize there is now property tax associated with them. Expenses:

Description The pool is operated on a year round basis and offers a variety of programs and public swims for all age groups.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Club/School revenue increased based on 2022 activity. Pool has been very busy post COVID. Expenses: Salaries adjusted based on staffing requirements. Reviewed FTE's and corrected based on current staffing. Materials and supply budget increased to accommodate - Dolphin pool vacuurn, increase in materials and books for lifeguarding courses, instructor suit/rashguard and goggle allowance for instructors and increase in uniform budgets.

Description Recreational Programming - Major projects include development of the Recreation Program Guide 2x/year, Fall registration & wellness fair, Summer Day Camp and grant writing. Networking and supporting recreation based nonprofit groups and community events. Communications on the Recreation Facebook page and updating the Recreation portion of the Town website as well as updating the community digital board.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Youth Programming revenue increased dramatically post COVID. 8 Expenses: Salaries reflect reallocation of staff and correction to the summer students for programming. Months of May to August were selected in positions and it only took a portion of the costs in 2022 budget. This has been corrected.

Rob Shanks (rshanks)`
Description Town maintains 21 parks and playgrounds, 17 km of trails, 111 ha (275 acres) of grass surface, and plants over 1,800 individual flowers in various beds and baskets. Maintenance includes turf, tree planting, pruning, flower baskets and beds, playgrounds, weed control and garbage pickup. Trail maintenance and grooming is also conducted on a year round basis.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: Added Federal Grant revenue for summer students. Apply every year for 10 summer students to assist with Parks. Expenses: Paving reduced in Contracted Services due to one time expenditure budgeted in 2022. Salaries adjusted based on percent allocations between various departments.

Description The North Saskatchewan River Park includes the rodeo grounds and other facilities. It is rented out throughout the year for various events. Facilities maintenance staff look after the buildings and structures, Engineering and Operations look after maintenance of the grounds.
Proposed Changes: Revenues: 2021 was the first year that the Town operated the NSRP. Very limited activity and rentals due to Covid. 2022 revenue estimates are based on anticipated usage. Expenses: Salaries increased by reallocation of 0.5 FTE from Parks to NSRP for ongoing maintenance, grass and weed control. Contract repairs budget reduced as actual costs in 2022 were not as high as anticipated. Removed cost of disking and rototilling the infield.

Project Summary 1204 - Administration Building Description
The current administration building was built in 1973. A study previously conducted identified certain deficiencies in the building. In addition, the office and space considerations were inadequate. Many offices are undersized, and some offices do not have access to good lighting or good emergency egress. During 2022, a feasibility study was conducted. The 2023 budget prepares for design with project construction and execution occurring in 2024. Annual Totals

Project Summary 1206 - Server Replacement Description The servers in the current administration building have reached their end of life. Their
warranties have expired and have been extended for one additional year, but after that there is a danger of them crashing. If this were to occur, the information system would become inoperable until the server was replaced. The Town is considering moving to Teams, which can result in server cost savings, however, this is newer technology and maintaining the servers is a more traditional method of managing electronic files.

Project Summary 3230 - 45 St East Frontage Description This project is composed of several components.
50 Avenue North to 52 Avenue This portion of the project sees a lot of traffic and is showing its age. The west side of the street has no concrete curb to give the pavement structure. We propose putting in a curb and gutter then full depth reconstruction of the street. This will match the block to the south. 47 Avenue to DQ Alley This section of the service road sees heavy trucks and regular vehicle traffic. It also has water runoff from the alley that shortens the life span of the pavement. This portion of the project will be mill and overlay with some concrete curb repairs. Co-op Entrance to the Railway The intersection in front of the Co-op was paved in 2020 and to compliment this portion, the south portion will need to be milled with an overlay of 50mm applied with some minor concrete work.

Project Summary 4112 - 44A St (51 Ave - 50 Ave) Description Aging 150mm water main with previous breaks. Water requires upsizing to 200mm
to meet commercial/industrial standards and ensure fire flow is available. This main services commercial properties with a low tolerance for water service interruptions. 44A St is also to be paved and serve as a link to the properties on 45 St. This lane paving will be required as portions of the service road are expected to be removed as a result of the 11 twinning. This paving assists in making the twinning of 11 and the modifications of the service road and intersections less expensive and disruptive to businesses. The sanitary will be inspected and spot repaired or replaced as required. Concrete Curbs to facilitate drainage are to be included in the road paving.

Project Summary 4207 - Wastewater Treatment Plant Description
The Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (rural and northern communities stream), delivered through Infrastructure Canada, will contribute $10,889,200 towards a state of the art mechanical wastewater treatment plant. The Municipal Water/Wastewater Partnership Program, delivered through Alberta Transportation, will fund up to $9,073,426 of the project. This system could service up to 9,000 residents. The old lagoon will be decommissioned and the three ponds will be used for water storage before the treated wastewater returns to the river.
The project is in the design and preliminary engineering phase. The 2022 budget portion will carryover and likely be incurred in 2023 and into 2024, while the 2023 portion is likely to carryover and be incurred during 2024 to 2025. The funding from County Contribution remains to be finalized. Annual Totals

Project Summary 4214 - Infiltration Program Description Annual maintenance program to target and line sanitary infrastructure to
improve service life and reduce infiltration. Relining is a cost effective means to increase the service life of the underground infrastructure. Infiltration is water entering the sanitary system, this additional flow is a symptom of damaged pipes and increases operating costs for both maintenance and treatment. Relining a pipe can be done without excavation as long as it is performed prior to a complete pipe failure. When it rains, the storm water enters the system and the pumps at the main lift station have a hard time keeping up. This could allow raw sewage to overflow out of the main lift. In 2020, an infiltration study was conducted and some trouble areas were identified. The manhole barrels should be relined with an environmentally friendly product that will not allow outside water to leak in. This technique was successfully used in Drayton Valley. Annual Totals
