Community League Day!
FACEBOOK EVENT: https://www.facebook.com/events/525711094917046/September 21 is Community League Day and we would like to invite you to join your community, friends and neighbours for a Potluck dinner starting at 5pm.

If your house number is even please bring a main dish and if your house number is odd, then please bring an appetizer, side dish or dessert. Enough to feed 7-10 people. Or you can bring $10 and we will order pizza depending on how much food we have.

We will also have some colouring sheets and markers for kids and playing cards and board games to play and (all ages) and feel free to bring you own as well.

As usual we will have an assortment of beer, wine and other drinks, drink tickets will be one for $5 or five for $20. Juice boxes will be $1.

We have also set up a Facebook event page if you’d like to let everyone know what you’re bringing or you can just surprise us!

As always we can’t do everything on our own and rely on the help of volunteers. For this event we are looking for the following:

Foyer desk (sell drink tickets + take $10 if someone is not bringing a dish): 30 min shifts from 5-7pm
Bar (serve drinks and take drink tickets, after 7 also sell drink tickets): 30 min shifts from 5-10pm

Please email christin.bryant@icloud.com if you can help us out for 1/2 hour. Thank you!

99 Avenue Sanitary Trunk Rehabilitation Project – Environmental Assessment

Posted on June 15, 2019 at 10:59 am.

Message from a Senior Advisor, Communications with the Drainage Services team at EPCOR:

The 99 Avenue sanitary sewer conveys wastewater from a large part of west Edmonton to the Gold Bar Wastewater Treatment Plant. The sewer is approximately 30m deep and requires rehabilitation between 142 Street and 151 Street.

Before the rehabilitation of the 99 Avenue trunk sewer can begin, a bypass sewer needs to be constructed using a tunneling method to divert wastewater from the existing sewer to allow for the rehabilitation in a safe environment. The alignment of the bypass sewer will be along 99 Avenue, north on 148 Street and east on 101 Avenue.

Construction of the bypass sewer is expected to begin within the next 2 years.

Attached is a notice for additional borehole drilling as part of an environmental assessment that is required to complete the detailed design for the project.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Dawn at:
