Let's get the new park build! 
PRIMROSE PARK REHABILITATION PROJECT NEEDS ASSESSMENT
Dear Aldergrove Residents:
The City of Edmonton currently has Primrose Park (located at 8304 188 Street) rated in “fair” condition. This means as the playground ages and the features of the playground reach the end of their life cycle they will be removed. In effort to maintain and ensure that the park remains an exciting and fun place for our children to use, we need to make significant improvements to the park in the form of a complete rebuild. A committee has been created and is operating and being governed by the Aldergrove Community League. The first step to reach our goal of making Primrose Park a safe, fun and exciting place to be is to complete a Needs Assessment. This Needs Assessment is to determine what will be done as a part of the project to improve the overall condition of the park and meet the needs of all community members. We encourage everyone to fill out this short survey and return the survey to the Primrose Park Rehabilitation Committee. Once the survey has been received by the committee, you will be entered into a draw for several prizes (yet to be determined). This survey will be available in two formats. The paper version of the assessment is available to print and mail in by clicking here. The second survey format is an electronic version that you can complete online at: https://goo.gl/TnG9ez. While you complete the paper copy of the assessment, example pictures of the different types of playground equipment can be found on our Primrose Park Facebook Page at: www.facebook.com/primroseparkrebuild. Completed paper surveys can be returned: 1. In person at Aldergrove Community League 2. By fax to: Aldergrove Community League 780-489-6283 3. Scan and email to: primroseparkrebuild@gmail.com 4. By mail to: Aldergrove Community League 8535-182 Street Edmonton AB, T5T 1X1 Your time and participation is greatly appreciated and will provide much needed information to get this project started. Winners for the draws for completed surveys will be contacted by July 1, 2017. Sincerely, Aaron Clark Primrose Park Rehabilitation Committee primroseparkrebuild@gmail.com VALLEY LINE WEST BULLETIN
Next stage of Valley Line West engagement underway Public meetings scheduled to recruit for citizen working groups Meetings with citizen-based groups are an important way the City of Edmonton engages with citizens on LRT projects. As it prepares for future construction, the City is working with communities along the Valley Line West corridor to establish citizen working groups (CWGs). The groups will be neighbourhood-focused and organized to reflect the common characteristics and area-specific interests of five distinct zones along the alignment, from Downtown to Lewis Farms. Some common subjects that may be raised in citizen working group meetings include construction plans, traffic impacts, landscape design, and the potential for non-resident parking and neighbourhood shortcutting. The CWGs will provide the project team and stakeholders with a forum for:
In addition to seats for community leagues and local organizations, each group will have two zone-specific representatives from the community-at-large. These representatives will be peer-selected at the following public meetings, which all interested Edmontonians are invited to attend: 87 Avenue (178 Street - Lewis Farms) ZoneBelmead Community Hall Date: Wednesday August 16, 2017 Time: 7pm to 8:30pm Location: 9109 - 182 Street 87 Avenue (Meadowlark - 178 Street) ZoneWest Meadowlark Community Hall Date: Thursday August 17, 2017 Time: 7pm to 8:30pm Location: 9311 - 165 Street Stony Plain Road (Groat Road - 159 Street) ZoneWest End Christian Reformed Church Date: Tuesday August 22, 2017 Time: 7pm to 8:30pm Location: 10015 149 Street Downtown (102 Street - Groat Road) ZoneRobertson-Wesley United Church Date: Wednesday August 23, 2017 Time: 7pm to 8:30pm Location: 10209 123 Street 156 Street (100 Avenue - 87 Avenue) ZoneWest Jasper / Sherwood Community Hall Date: Thursday August 24, 2017 Time: 7pm to 8:30pm Location: 9620- 152 Street Public input has played, and continues to play, an essential role in shaping the Valley Line LRT, from the identification of the corridor in 2009, through the development of the concept plan, to the completion of preliminary design in 2013.
