Kimberly Gilham of Spruce Grove asked Council via telephone if the City can re-evaluate the road safety along Spruce Ridge Road due to the increase in traffic, increase in parking, major speeds along this road and no accessible crosswalks, increase in bus stops and low visibility for children to cross the street due to the parked vehicles.
Administration provided an update regarding the assessment of this road, what the City is doing to address the safety issues in the short term and long term, and communicating with Parkland School Division regarding bussing.
Mayor Houston thanked Ms. Gilham for bringing her question forward.
The City Clerk read an email on behalf of Tina Green regarding compensation to residents now that some are not allowed to use publicly funded facilities such as the Agrena and TLC.
Administration provided a response, stating that citizen safety is of upmost priority and due to the current health crisis, the City had two options to consider and chose to maintain programming and open facilities with proof of vaccination rather than reducing capacity and cancelling all adult programming.
Mayor Houston thanked Ms. Green for bringing her question forward.
