Proposed Local Improvement Plan for Street Reconstruction in Kerrobert
Proposed Local Improvement Plan for Street Reconstruction in Kerrobert As anyone who lives in Kerrobert or drives through Kerrobert knows, most of our streets are in dire need of rebuilding. This Council and previous Town Councils have spent considerable time, energy and cash fixing potholes and other surface defects over the last decade, just trying to keep our streets passable. Council has determined that it is time to come up with a plan to rebuild our streets so as to improve the appearance of all our neighbourhoods and to make our streets safer and easier to drive on. We have developed a three phase plan to rebuild most of the streets in Town. We have attached several plans to this report to show where works are planned: 1) Roadway Phasing Plan1 2) Phase 1 Street Replacement Plan 3) Water Main Replacement Plan 4) Sewer Replacement Plan History and Background The biggest impediment to this and previous Councils in taking on any street reconstruction program has been the condition of the utilities buried in the streets. No one has wanted to undertake the cost and disruption of properly rebuilding a street just to then have another water main break, necessitating tearing up brand new asphalt. Two recent successful grant applications have now enabled us to take care of much of the failing buried utilities. The first grant of a little more than $250K from the Small Communities Fund, has allowed us to replace 600 meters of cast iron main on the eastern three blocks of Railway Avenue. This section of main has 1 Not shown on this Plan – Phase 2 also includes Manitoba Ave.

2017 June Newsletter
Town of Kerrobert Culture & Recreation Newsletter Email: [email protected] Website: www.kerrobertsk.com Phone: (306)834-2344 Office—Kerrobert Courthouse 433 Manitoba Ave News from the Mayor for June 2017 What a difference a month makes. Everything is green and flowers are in full bloom. Great job to Communities in Bloom and everyone for that matter with making their yards look so good. Golfing has begun, kids will soon be splashing around in the swimming pool and base- ball is in full swing. This is definitely my favorite time of year. Our outside staff will be very busy with grass cutting, tree trimming and as soon as we can get the pavement grinder from the R.M. of Oakdale, we will be tackling the streets as well. We won’t be able to do everything, but hopefully we can get to some of the worse areas such as Bosworth Street in front of the Arena and heading up the hill. There are more than a few of those types of clusters throughout town that we want to get done as soon as possible. We were also saddled with a couple of water line bursts during line flushing. We still have several water lines that are in very brittle condition and we are hopeful to get back to a program where we can be replacing these lines. We will likely be starting this year on Bulling Street between Saskatchewan and Manitoba Avenue. This line has had several breaks in the last few years and is a great candidate to start with.

Hub died in Moose Jaw in 1990. E.W. (Wally) Stinson (1960) Executive Director of the Association from 1948 to 1959.

Keep Liquor Sales Public So All Profits Benefit Saskatchewan Families
Keep liquor sales public so all profits benefit Saskatchewan families Why risk losing millions in public revenue? ° All the money earned by our province's public liquor stores - $252 million last year - is returned to Saskatchewan families and communities – and helps pay for services like schools, hospitals, roads, parks and recreation. It’s NOT a choice between hospitals or liquor stores ° Don’t be fooled by Brad Wall saying that it’s a choice between spending taxpayers’ money on building new hospitals or on new liquor stores. ° A public liquor store is not a drain on provincial finances. It is a money- making asset. The Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority (SLGA) earns more than enough revenue to cover all of the costs of building additional stores. No public tax dollars are needed to construct new liquor outlets. Each additional new store would easily pay for itself, and still earn millions - money that could help fund hospitals and schools. Four new private stores will cost taxpayers a bundle ° Government’s decision to let four new private liquor stores open – two in Regina and two in Saskatoon – will cost taxpayers between $3.5 to $7.5 million each year in lost revenue. That’s money SLGA could have earned if the new liquor stores were public. Over the years, those losses will grow, depriving families and communities of millions for needed services.1 Public system is more profitable ° Saskatchewan’s public liquor stores are more effective at generating profits for the province than private liquor systems. Alberta has lost almost $1.5 billion in revenue from liquor sales since it privatized stores in 1993.
