Epcor Drainage-Sewer Construction Update

Work has resumed at 151 St. and 99 Ave. to rehabilitate the sewer line along 151 Street from 99th Avenue to 100th Avenue. Planning is also under way for an additional shaft at 150th Street and 99th Avenue. Epcor is also reminding residents to report sewer gas smells in their homes to 311.


Volunteer Recognition

We would like to express our gratitude to all the residents who signed up as a volunteer partner with the city Parks Department. Thank you, Christine, David, Irene, Paul, Dawne and Robin for weeding and picking up litter on our multi-use trail and playground. It was amazing the number of garbage bags that were filled after each session and the hours you worked in May through to the end of October.

We encourage residents to help our volunteers and don't litter. When you use our park or multi-use trail, please bring a garbage bag and collect any garbage that you see.


Leisure Access Program Update

On Tuesday, July 4, 2017, The City of Edmonton will launch a new component to the Leisure Access Program, making recreation even more accessible. Based on the "sliding scale" approach, applicants with income as much as 25 percent above the low income cut-o?? may be eligible for a new subsidized monthly pass. This pass is priced at $20/month for an individual and $70/month for a family. Additionally, income thresholds for the pre-existing Leisure Access Program were increased by 10 percent to welcome more low income Edmontonians to the free annual pass program for access to participating recreation and attraction facilities.
