  • Watershed Stewardship in Alberta: a Directory of Stewardship Groups, Support Agencies, and Resources
    WATERSHED STEWARDSHIP IN ALBERTA: A DIRECTORY OF STEWARDSHIP GROUPS, SUPPORT AGENCIES AND RESOURCES APRIL 2005 INTRODUCTION FOREWORD This directory of WATERSHED STEWARDSHIP IN ALBERTA has been designed to begin a process to meet the needs of individuals, stewardship groups, and support agencies (including all levels of government, non- governmental organizations, and industry). From recent workshops, surveys, and consultations, community- based stewards indicated a need to be better connected with other stewards doing similar work and with supporting agencies. They need better access to information, technical assistance, funding sources, and training in recruiting and keeping volunteers. Some groups said they felt isolated and did not have a clear sense that the work they were doing was important and appreciated by society. A number of steps have occurred recently that are beginning to address some of these concerns. The Alberta Stewardship Network, for example, has been established to better connect stewards to each other and to support agencies. Collaboration with other provincial and national networks (e.g. Canada’s Stewardship Communities Network) is occurring on an on-going basis. Internet-based information sites, such as the Stewardship Canada Portal (www.stewardshipcanada.ca), are being established to provide sources of information, linkages to key organizations, and newsletters featuring success stories and progress being made by grassroots stewards. These sites are being connected provincially and nationally to keep people informed with activities across Canada. The focus of this directory is on watershed stewardship groups working in Alberta. The term ‘watershed’ is inclusive of all stewardship activities occurring on the landscape, be they water, air, land, or biodiversity-based.

  • Closure of Streets, Roads, Or Lanes
    Page 1 of 5 PROCEDURE NO. 015 (2009} Prepared/Amended by: Shanon Simon Manager Approve Municipal Secretary Date: ~/<::::.. TOPIC: CLOSURE OF STREETS, ROADS OR LANES Purpose: To regulate and control the closure of streets, roads and/or lanes within the boundaries of the Town of Redcliff as provided for in the Municipal Government Act R.S.A. 1994, chapter M-1, Section 22. To promote orderly development and utility servicing within the Town of Redcliff, or facilitate creation of lots or parcels for sale, as it relates to roadways. To provide proper process, advice and background on applications for the closure of roadways. Procedure: 1. Typically there are two reasons for requiring the closure of a roadway. a) Preparing land for future subdivision and development of land. (Typically this would involve re-opening a road structure with alternate routing at a future time through the subdivision process.) b) For the purpose of acquisition of a portion of the road or lane, creating a titled property for use as is, or for being consolidated to an adjacent property. 2. When the request is for the purpose of using/acquiring the closed portion of a roadway, and there is no intention for the road or lane to be reopened in an alternate location, the matter should first be forwarded to Committee of the Whole Council. They (Committee of the Whole Council) will then provide their opinion on whether they would like to have Administration initiate the formal process to close the roadway for the purpose of it being sold. By getting this initial opinion, if the proposal were unacceptable, it would save the need for an application, advertising, and the administrative process related to initiating a closure.

    Alberta Infrastructure Response to Questions at the Standing Committee on Public Accounts, June 2, 2020 1. Question from Mr. Thomas Dang (NDP), MLA for Edmonton-South Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) “I understand that a number of the projects were continued and approved under the ICIP, but a number of projects, such as the Lethbridge performing arts centre, didn’t move forward in the process. Could you get us a list of those projects and how many dollars didn’t move forward?” (Page PA-217) Deputy Minister’s Response: “We can provide you with the list of the complete 700 applications and then the list that did get approved.” Supplemental Response: As part of Budget 2020, the Province has endorsed more than 70 projects in more than 30 constituencies to move forward to the federal application stage. Applicants with endorsed projects are working with the Province to fulfill the federal application requirements. Under the terms of the Integrated Bilateral Agreements, project announcements can only be made jointly once federal approval is received. 13 projects were previously approved for $2.7 billion in ICIP funding (see Attachment 1 – ICIP Federally Approved Projects): 1. Alberta Capital Region Wastewater Commission – Waste Gas Burner Facility 2. Ben Calf Robe School Building Upgrades (Edmonton) 3. Green Line LRT (Calgary) 4.
