About the Project

The Building Great Neighbourhoods initiative involves:

Renewal and replacement of sanitary and storm sewers.
• Coordination of utility repairs (ATCO, EPCOR).
• Reconstruction of roads, curbs and sidewalks on City-owned property and replacement of streetlights.
• Working with residents to identify improvements to pedestrian and cycling accessibility.
• Consulting with residents to identify capital improvements on City-owned property that will enhance livability.

Reconstruction is funded by a combination of provincial dollars and a 1.5% Neighbourhood Renewal Program tax levy.

Local Improvements

Local Improvements are infrastructure projects that benefit a neighbourhood more than the City as a whole. Local improvements involve a cost to property owners. Residents will receive a Local Improvement notice in the mail between January and April 2013 outlining local improvement areas and cost-sharing.

Sidewalk reconstruction: Property owners are assessed based on the width of their property frontage and cover 50% of the cost.

Decorative Streetlights: Neighbourhoods may choose to have decorative streetlights installed, for which they pay 100% of the cost above standard galvanized streetlight poles. A neighbourhood must fill out an Expression of Interest and gain support from at least 51% of property owners.
