Municipalities across Canada have limited revenue streams to meet the growing needs and expenses of day-to-day operations. After property taxes, the second-largest source of revenue comes from provincial and federal grants.
Every five years, Statistics Canada conducts the national census from coast to coast to coast. The Government of Canada surveys individuals and private businesses such as farmers and fishers to gather information on population, average age, ethnicity, income levels, acres planted, livestock numbers and many other details.
Our community is like many across the Prairies and across the country. The railway tracks that stretch from coast to coast led to towns springing up as centres for trade and connection. The railway also helped bring British Columbia into Confederation. For many families moving west, the iron horse made the journey possible.
We have reached that favourite time of year that many of us look forward to, as the longest day has arrived, and the dog days of summer are beginning. Students have wrapped up the school year and are busy dreaming and planning for summer. That includes summer jobs, vacations, and time with friends. Parents, of course, are trying to schedule vacation days and find ways to keep everyone happy and healthy.
One of the first questions I often ask people I meet is: why did you choose Lloydminster?
The condition of Lloydminster’s roads and streets is a regular topic of conversation, whether over coffee, lunch or supper. It often comes up at our table at home, especially when street sweeping, snow clearing, or any other City work is happening nearby.
I would like to thank those who have reached out inquiring about the condition of various city buildings. These questions have prompted me to write this article to provide clarity. The City of Lloydminster manages a number of assets, including buildings, infrastructure, parks, and recreation facilities, to name a few.
Summer is just around the corner, and many of us are excited for camping, travelling, spending time at the lake, or simply relaxing in the park. Before the busy season arrives, there are several events in our community and the surrounding area to enjoy throughout June.
As signs of spring appear, many of us are inspired by the potential of the upcoming season. While the weather remains unpredictable, the opportunities ahead are abundant.
As we begin to enjoy the green grass, the leaves on the trees, the warm sun, and the cool breeze, the sound of hammers, saws, and lawn mowers fills the air throughout our neighbourhoods. Construction season is upon us. It’s often said we have two seasons in the prairies: winter and construction season.
