LEITER FROM RED DEER COUNTY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT REGARDING MUNICIPAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN TEXT AMENDMENT - FOR INFORMATION. MAY 8, 2006 TO: Town of lnnisfail ATTENTION: Dale RE: Lot 101 Block 11 Plan # 0322755 We recently purchased this property from the Town of lnnisfail and by all indications this property was deemed to be ready to build on . We started construction on May 1st and dug down approximately three (3) feet. We immediately realized that there was a problem with the backfill that had been used to raise this property to its present level. We then dug a test hole in the north west corner of our basement location and found that there was debri and garbage down to approximately the eight (8) foot level. Another test hole was dug on the south edge of the property and the waste material only went down to about six (6) feet. It was determined at that time that we had to build as close to the south edge of the property as possible, to avoid the worst areas. The basement contractor then had to excavate the basement to approximately eight (8) feet to get to suitable soil. The contractor then proceeded to backfill the basement with pit run and compacting the pit run in one (1) foot lifts to get back to the footing level. This took approximately three days and about 400 to 450 cubic yards of pit run. We also had compaction tests done to ensure that we were building on a solid foundation. At this point we are anticipating that the extra work and materials used will cost from $12,000.00 to $15,000.00 extra. We are asking that the Town of lnnisfail will reimburse us for the extra costs involved because the engineering report, when the development was done, should have disclosed the problem with the debri under Lot 101. We do not expect that the Town of lnnisfail pay any more than the actual cost of the extra work involved in getting this site ready to be built on. These costs are estimates at this point in time, but we should be receiving our invoice by the end of the month and would then be submitting it to the Town of lnnisfail. It would then be your decision to reimburse us either by cheque or by reducing the cost of the property equal to the extra costs involved.

  • Recycling Issues Explored
    September 10, 2007 Recycling Issues Explored Edmonton... Having received over 100 written submissions on the Beverage Container Recycling Regulation, the Legislative Assembly’s all-party Standing Committee on Resources and Environment has scheduled public hearings in both Edmonton and Calgary. “Recycling is an issue that affects all Albertans,” said Denis Ducharme, MLA for Bonnyville-Cold Lake and Chair of the Standing Committee on Resources and Environment. “People have a lot to say about the issues, and we want to hear about it.” The public hearing in Edmonton is scheduled to take place at the Legislature Annex (4th Floor, 9718 - 107 Street) on September 18 beginning at 9:30 a.m. In Calgary the hearing is scheduled to take place at the Carriage House Inn (9030 MacLeod Trail South) on September 20 beginning at 1 p.m. People are asked to contact the Committee Clerk before the end of the day on September 12 if they wish to make a presentation. The length of the hearings will be determined by the number of scheduled presentations. The Standing Committee on Resources and Environment is one of four all-party committees established by the Assembly this spring. Among other responsibilities this 11-Member committee is holding public hearings into issues surrounding the Beverage Container Recycling Regulation. These issues include Beverage Container Collection System Is the number of existing bottle depots in Alberta sufficient? Should additional collection options be considered?

  • The State of the Environment in Lacombe County
    The State of the Environment in Lacombe County Lacombe County would like to acknowledge the contributions of the following people in preparing this report on the state of the environment in Lacombe County. Blayne West, Lacombe County Senior Management Team, Lacombe County Planning Team, Larry Riep, Barry Cole, Doug Neis, Sarah Skinner, Jay White, Donna Hennig, Michael Kartusch. To obtain additional copies of the report: On the web: The State of the Environment in Lacombe County is available on our website www.lacombecounty.com. Paper copies: Please contact Lacombe County directly at 403-782-6601 First printing April 2013 Page. 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A State of the Environment Report is an important tool for Lacombe County. It provides a snapshot of the current condition of the environment and the pressures that impact it. This document examines the state of the environment in Lacombe County through a scientific and socio-economic planning structure. The scientific approach focuses on analysing available data to identify and assess changes in the environment over time. The planning approach uses social norms to compare and rank alternative choices, to balance environmental, economic and social objectives, and to initiate management options. The report outlines community perception, scientific data, current environmental legislation and environmental extension programs. It is a compilation of information gathered from various sources and provides us with a baseline. It does not include management recommendations or future planning considerations. This document is a snapshot in time; it represents only the data that is available at the time of writing. Lacombe County is located in Central Alberta, straddling six towns and villages and bordering five counties.

  • Fishing from Pier, in Marinas Closed Until July 1 Under New Regulations
    Sylvan Lake News – Story 6 Page 1 of 1 Fishing from pier, in marinas closed until July 1 under new regulations by Steve Dills Sylvan Lake News Changes to regulations for fishing on Sylvan Lake have resulted in the area from the pier to Norglenwold being closed during spawning season. That means there is no fishing allowed from the end of the pier, in the marina or in Marina Bay, until July 1. Technically the closed area is the “portion of the lake southwest of a line drawn from the northeastern most tip of the landfill pier in Sylvan Lake Provincial Park located at NE 33-38-1-W5M due northwest to the point on the shoreline where the boundary between the Town of Sylvan Lake and the Summer Village of Norglenwold meet the lake located at NE32-38-1-W5M, including all tributary streams.” This is the first year of what will become an annual closure, said Vance Buchwald, a fisheries biologist with Fish and Wildlife at Alberta Sustainable Resource Development. The department has introduced walleye into the lake a number of times in the past decade with good results. But people have been catching a large number of the fish in the marinas during spawning season. They’ve also had enforcement issues. Walleye is a catch and release species, but he said not all anglers are using barbless hooks and there’s been some retention of walleye. To help the walleye become a self generating natural population, they’ve decided to close the area. Typically by the first of July most of the walleye have left the marina and pier areas.
