Hi everyone and welcome to 2017! We wish you all a very
good year.
Our first reminder of the year is that the year round burn
permits are now available at the Sturgeon County office or online.
Our second reminder is to install your county addresses
– emergency services cannot help you if they cannot find you. (See note below about county address signs.)
As previously mentioned, because we are not
news media we are not able to be on the news media press release list. We are however, able to share the RCMP news
releases that morinvillenews receives.
You will have noticed in some of our recent fan outs, it indicates the information is courtesy of
morinvillenews. Thank you Stephen, this
is working well and it means all of our members are aware of the current
criminal activity in our county and towns.
The RCMP information we receive is fanned out as well.
We are still looking for members to become Directors with SRCWA and represent Zone 5 - Riviere Qui
Barre, Zone 6 - Alcomdale/Mearns and Zone 9 - in the area of Hewitt Estates. Being a Director is not as
overwhelming as it may sound. It is
however, a commitment to attend once per month meetings - ten months of the year with only eight actual meetings. We have all taken on these volunteer positions
with the safety and wellbeing of the residents from our areas in mind. There is
strength and safety in numbers and the more directors and members we have on
board the safer our communities will be. Please contact me at sturgeonrcwa@gmail.com for more
information.
A question was brought forward at our meeting on Tuesday
night – the answer was provided by Susan Evans, Councillor, Division 2;
Question: Regarding Municipal Address Signs – does/did the County pay
for signage – it was thought that the County did so in the past.
Answer: The County used to “sell” the signs about six or so
years ago but at no time did the County pay for them. While the signs are not mandatory they are
very helpful for identification purposes such as dust control and emergency
services. If you would like more information please contact Susan or the
Councillor for your division.
We have been offered the use of the meeting room at the
Protective Services Bldg at 54509 RR 252 in Sturgeon County. Fire Chief Pat Mahoney confirmed that our
Tuesday, May 9th, 2017 meeting can be held there. The change will be only
for the May meeting. This is a great opportunity for any of the
residents of the County to tour the building and see what
services are provided. There will be a staff member there to show us around
and answer questions. Everyone from the
County is welcome.
If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please
