To help address the challenges of waste management and recycling within the rural and small urban municipalities of the Redberry Lake Biosphere Reserve Regional Planning District, Maymont and four municipalities met together to examine the potential to invest in a regional waste management site.
Maymont is the first to receive a waste bin and recycle bin in our waste transfer station. Nothing has changed and our transfer station staff is still with us. Thank you, Carol, for doing such a great job.
The goal is that all components of the operation will be funded with the revenue generated from the landfill site as well as the sale of recyclable materials. Apart from tippage and collection service fees, no operating funding will be drawn from the municipal tax system.Ìý
Fun time in Maymont, ladies. Don your Easter bonnets. Next meeting of the seniors will be April 10 at 2 p.m. and members are invited to wear their Easter hats. How long has it been since you wore a bonnet?
There will also be a shuffleboard tournament April 19 at 1:30 p.m. at the seniors’ centre. Everyone is welcome. We hope Radisson, Borden, Sonningdale, Ruddell, Maymont and anyone else interested will come and enjoy.
The library is having their annual meeting April 25 at 10:30 a.m. We are looking for new board members. Please show your support and join us.
Denise Bernier and Carol Deagnon attended a two-day course in Radisson based upon the Canadian Emergency Preparedness College course. It was based on the four pillars of emergency management — mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. The course provided participants with fundamental emergency planning knowledge to enhance the ability to either lead or be a part of an EMO committee.
