Although municipal representatives understood theupgrade to convert Vinca Bridge across the NorthSaskatchewan River on Hwy 38 southeast of Redwa-ter into a heavy haul bridge was suspended, the Alber-ta Ministry of Transportation said the project is goingahead.

Ministry of Transportation press secretary Brook-lyn Elhard said Oct. 10, “The project has not been sus-pended. Detailed design is underway for the VincaBridge.” She said project construction will begin fol-lowing completion of design work, land acquisition,relocation of utilities and after regulatory permitshave been obtained.

The message to area municipalities was different.Redwater councillor Dave McRae reported that dur-ing the Alberta Urban Municipalities Association(AUMA) conference held the last week of Septemberhe was told the Vinca Bridge project was suspended.

Sturgeon County mayor and Alberta IndustrialHeartland Association chair Alanna Hnatiw alsounderstood the project was suspended, and sheencouraged everyone to share their support for thisproject with their MLAs.

The $90 million upgrade and additional highwayimprovements in the area to accommodate the changein traffic were announced in 2018 and included in the2018 provincial budget. Planning and design werebegun that year. Municipal representatives understoodthe Vinca Bridge project was a casualty of the changein provincial government after the May 2019 provin-cial election replaced the New Democratic Party(NDP) with a United Conservative Party (UCP) gov-ernment.

“The learnings or discussion that took place atAUMA may have been new, but the informationregarding the suspension of this project was not,”Hnatiw said. “All projects announced by the NDP thatwere not already underway were suspended followingthe election. The Vinca Bridge project is currentlybeing prioritized for funding, along with several otherprojects announced by the previous government. OurMLAs, Assoc. Minister (Dale) Nally and MLA(Shane) Getson, are well aware of the importance ofthe bridge upgrades to support this section of Alber-ta’s heavy/high load corridor. This regionally impor-tant infrastructure is exactly the type of responsibleinvestment required to strengthen our economic via-bility and remain competitive in an economy facinglogistic constraints in many other areas. Investment intrade corridors is something we all need to understandthe importance of and advocate for.”

Converting Vinca Bridge to a heavy haul bridgewould improve access for trucks carrying heavy loadsto major industrial areas north of Edmonton, particu-larly Alberta’s Industrial Heartland and the FortMcMurray region. Carriers would save an average of$10,000 per trip compared to the existing heavy haulroute which routes traffic east onto Hwy 36. The newVinca Bridge structure would establish a critical linkin Alberta’s High Load Corridor, saving heavilyloaded trucks about 200 kilometres of travel.

Approximately 2,000 vehicles cross Vinca Bridgeevery day. In 2016, 400 heavy loads travelled throughthe existing High Load Corridor to the east. Upgrad-ing Vinca Bridge was estimated to provide 265 directconstruction jobs and 190 indirect jobs in associatedindustries.

Sylvia Sokolowski hosted a CIBC Run ForThe Cure fundraiser for cancer research at herfarm near Abee Oct. 6. Using the huge organi-zation’s slogan “Your Walk Your Way” literal-ly, Sokolowski and Team It’s OK held theirfive km Walk amidst the crisp air, fallen leavesand autumn boreal forest foliage.

The 23 participants raised over $2,000. Theyhad fun, exercise and a wiener roast.

“We celebrated our awareness with fellow-ship,” said Sokolowski. “I’ve gotten a lot oflocal support and donations of door prizes.This community is amazing for its support.”

Metro’s Contracting supplied the washroom,the Co-op supplied food and “the County ...keeping us safe.”

A breast cancer survivor, she knows thevalue of cancer research and has participated inthe Edmonton Run For The Cure for the past15 years. When that event changed its venuethis year, moving from downtown to the legis-lature grounds, she hesitated to make the drive,search for parking organizers warned wasscarce, and comply with the lengthy list of reg-ulations.

“This all started with a phone call from one

of the CIBC organizers,” Sokolowski said.“She said there’s people who do it their way,walking circles in their living room.”

Living in rural Thorhild County, Sokolows-ki chose to walk outside on country roads.Everyone was welcome to participate and tobring along kids, dogs and farm animals.Sokolowski said there are many breast cancersurvivors who go to Edmonton or who do nottake part in awarenessevents or researchfundraisers. She

encouraged them to walk their way and join alocal event or create one of their own.

“Don’t let it just pass by,” urged her friend,Glenda Reum, noting that research has beenproven to save lives.

Supporters can continue to donate throughthe CIBC Run for the Cure website until midOctober.

The Seeds to Sprouts Childcare Societyhopes to open its daycare with before andafter school care next month. Registrations forchildren aged one to 12 are now being accept-ed.

“We’re looking to provide a warm, safeenvironment, to provide options for local par-ents,” said board member Krista Hawrelko.“We’re excited to bring this new venture tothe community.” It will operate full time, 12months of the year.

The Society’s board members held an openhouse at the daycare rooms in Thorhild Cen-tral School (TCS) Oct. 9. One room is forchildren aged one and two, the other is forchildren aged three to 12 and will providebefore and after school care. Older childrenwill be able to use the playground structuresbeside the school. A separate fenced play areawas built to serve the youngest children.

Board member Brandy Hasiuk said, “Theapplication and handbooks are pretty muchdone, and staff are ready to go; it’s just a mat-ter of a couple weeks. We are so excited thatwe are almost ready to open.” They have afew more items to purchase and are just final-izing their licensing application.

Aspen View Public Schools made creatingthe child care facility possible by providingtwo classrooms free of charge to the Societyand built the cupboards, installed sinks anddid the wiring for the appliances. Two roomsare required to ensure age appropriate areasare designated and to facilitate the out ofschool care program.

“The region and community have beenunbelievably supportive and generous,” saidHawrelko. “They are all very happy to see thisservice in the Thorhild community.”

Donated funds were used to purchaseappliances, kid’s furniture, cribs, fencing forthe play area outside and supplies.

“We couldn’t believe how much is neededto get a daycare in place and how much workit was, but when it comes to our children, it

doesn’t matter,” said president KellyFeledichuk. “It is all worth it.”

The daycare requires a couple more fami-lies to register their children in order to open.They need 12 full time equivalent children(full time, or part timers where two togetherequal one full time) in order to operate. TheSeeds to Sprouts Childcare Society has aFacebook page, and families interested intouring the rooms or registering may [email protected].

The Seeds to Sprouts Childcare SocietyBoard has worked on getting the Thorhildcommunity day care up and running for near-ly one year. In late 2018 a small group ofyoung working moms got together with thesame need: a daycare. They did a quick sur-vey to see how many other families were inthe same situation, having to drive their chil-dren to child care out of the community onvery busy roads during rush hour times.

The survey showed a need for child careincluding out of school care. This group thenrequested seed money from Thorhild Countyto begin the process of establishing a childcare facility. With the generous donation of$15,000 from the county, the group engagedlegal counsel to get the bylaws, applicationsand documents required to register a not-for-profit childcare society and had money leftover to help with facility purchases.

In February 2019 the Society was officiallyestablished. Since then, the group of five indi-viduals raised over $35,000 in donations,from large corporatebusinesses in theregion to small localbusinesses in theThorhild communityand even from per-sonal donations, andheld a number offundraising events.The local Co-op storewill provide morningand afternoon snacksfor the next coupleyears.

Seeds To Sproutswas set up as a Soci-ety in order to accessfundraising opportu-nities and grants. Thebenefits of beinglocated in the schoolare that it eliminatestransportation issuesfor before and afterschool care, is onestop for parents withchildren in daycareand school, usesexisting amenitiessuch as the play-ground and gymnasi-um, and creates syn-ergies between thechildcare society andschool.

CIBC Run For TheCure ‘Your WalkYour Way’participants relaxamong the baleswhere they finishedtheir five km walk atSylvia Sokolowski'sfarm near Abee Oct.6.Story page A5.

With snowflakes barely hitting the groundSturgeon County Council started taking stepsat their regular Council meeting Oct. 8 forspring flood control mitigation.

They directed administration “to investigateproducts to aid in mitigating flood events” and“issue a request for proposal (RFP) for the pro-curement of flood control products not toexceed $100,000 funded from the drainagereserve.”

The results of the RFP will be brought backto Council for deliberation. An example prod-uct is a tube type barrier that can quickly befilled with water to protect an asset from risingflood waters.

General Manager Infrastructure ServicesScott MacDougall said “In 2019 the Countyalong with several other zones in the greaterregion experienced a significantly higher thannormal rainfall.” He noted spring run-off creat-ed several flooding conditions impacting resi-dences and businesses. “Downstream con-straints were ‘taxed’ with areas such as theSturgeon River breaching its banks in severallocations this year,” he said.

The proposed flood control mitigation prod-ucts would “allow proactive protection ofinfrastructure and assets,” MacDougall said.Starting the process now will allow the Coun-ty to acquire the product, train staff and pre-pare for deployment next spring. “We can’tprotect everything,” he said, adding they canstart working through some legacy issues.

Coun. Wayne Bokenfohr concluded the$100,000 investment is only about the cost forone flooded basement. “I think it is moneywell spent.”

Coun. Karen Shaw was the lone dissenting vote asSturgeon County Council approved transitioningfrom tri-annual management reporting to semi-annu-al management reporting at the regular Council meet-ing Oct. 8.

In the request for decision administration recom-mended the move to semi-annual reporting “toenhance the quality and efficiency of reporting toCouncil on organizational initiatives, financial posi-tion and key decisional impacts.”

Acting Director, Financial and Strategic ServicesEd Kaemingh said “Tri-annual reporting allowsCouncil to provide input and general oversight to thecurrent year’s direction.”

“Administration is reviewing current processes tofind efficiencies and does not believe the Tri-annualManagement Report provides real time value. Inaddition, there is overlap and duplication with otherreports going to Council, for example budget presen-tations.”

Coun. Patrick Tighe said he supported the changeif the intent is efficiencies and concluded “I think wehave enough means and data sharing.”

Shaw suggested the tri-annual report gave “a moreaccurate picture.” She concluded, “six months is avery long time” between reports.

About four years ago the County went from quar-terly reports to the tri-annual, Kaemingh noted.

Mayor Alana Hnatiw supported the semi-annualreporting stating, “I feel we get accurate informationon a regular basis.”

Sturgeon goes from threeto two managementreports per year

Twenty-three properties were identified for the2019 public tax recovery property auction scheduledfor December, Sturgeon County Council was advisedduring their regular Council meeting October 8.

Council approved the conditions of sale and thereserve bids identified in the 2019 Public Sale ofLand Report at market value as prepared by theCounty Assessment Department. Market valuesranged from $65,000 to $987,500.

The Public Sale of Land Report was dated July 1,2019 and since then “three tax rolls have been paid,three are pending payment and one is entering into anagreement,” said Sabrina Duquette, Controller,Financial Services. Property owners have up to thedate and the time of the public auction to pay taxarrears.

Coun. Patrick Tighe questioned if any of the prop-erties had “environmental issues” that may be a lia-bility. Duquette said as they are being sold at publicauction they may need to seek a legal opinion on thatpoint.

Ed Kaemingh, Acting Director Financial andStrategic Services noted staff are not aware of anyissues but could assess any concerns. “If we don’ttake title to the property it is not our problem,” heconcluded.

Iron Cruisers’Show n ShineVisitors look closely at Berry Ray ofRedwater's 1972 GMC with a 502 bigblock motor and an 871 blower duringthe Iron Cruisers' Show n Shine at the31st annual Smoky Lake pumpkin fairOct. 5. Ray hasn't ever reached thisvehicle's top speed, but he said, “it goesfreakin' extremely fast.”

Sturgeon County Council sanctioned anIntermunicipal Collaboration Framework(ICF) agreement with Parkland County bygiving third reading of Bylaw 1455/19 “forthe purpose of adopting an IntermunicipalCollaboration Framework (ICF) betweenSturgeon County and Parkland County” onOct. 8. Parkland County also passed thirdreading of their matching bylaw on Oct. 8.

“This is the first of 15 agreements to becompleted as per the MGA (Municipal Gov-ernment Act) requirements. ICFs are a toolto reinforce the good work that municipali-ties are already engaging in to ensure we arecollaborating and finding efficiencies tobuild the strongest communities we can.Delivering a high level of service to our res-idents has always been a top priority.” saidSturgeon Mayor Alana Hnatiw.

Under Alberta’s MGA, municipalitiessharing a border must complete ICF agree-ments by April 2020. These frameworksensure collaboration is being consideredbetween municipal neighbours in the areasof transportation, water and wastewater,solid waste, emergency services and recre-ation services.

The Sturgeon - Parkland ICF focuses only onrecreation services as the remaining services arecovered through the Metropolitan Region Ser-vicing Plan, since both municipalities are mem-bers of the Edmonton Metropolitan RegionBoard.

ICFs must also contain an agreed to disputeresolution process to manage disputes that couldarise regarding the delivery and cost sharing ofservices after the ICF has been adopted.

The Administrations of both Sturgeon Countyand Parkland County have collaborated to ensurethat the ICF meets the requirements in the MGAand the expectations of both municipalities.

The agreement will be reviewed once everyfour years, at minimum; however, there aremechanisms within the ICF to trigger conversa-tions around potential future collaborations.
