Mr. Maerz moved Mr. Rodger obtain price from Border Paving for doing the required patch work on SR 583 and on SR 806, as well as a price for rental of paver and report to Council at a later date, and further moved Mr Jeffery advise Mr B Kathol of Alberta Transportation the M.D. will require 100 ten yard loads of apshalt from the Province's asphalt plant this summer in order to improve certain secondary roads in the M D CARRIED HOT MIX FOR REPAIRS ON SR ROADS at be a �- a Mr. Jeffery reviewed information provided by Alberta Transportation regarding the proposed re- alignment of SR 841 and the plans were reviewed and discussed in detail Whether there was a real need to reconstruct the last mile of this road was also discussed and it was noted the hill reconstruction on both sides of the creek would be quite expensive.

CARRIED The proposed re- alginment of SR 806 South of Linden prepared by Alberta Transportation was then discussed and it was again noted the reconstruction of the road should be delayed until the existing pavement requires replacement Alberta Transportatiaon feel P -2 is likely the best alignment for the road After discussion Mr. Maerz moved Mr. Sawchuk of Alberta Transportation be advised the M D still favour P -2 alignment for reconstruction of SR 806, but would like the location of the north curve in the NE 18 and likely the south curve in SE 19 re- located so the road would not be so close to the residence presently owned by Walt Regehr so much.

The ground water investigation will determine whether the lake has a hydraulic connection with the local groundwater regime There was discussion about the annual operating costs would which be incurred to pump water into the lake It was also noted that if the direction of some culverts in the area above Keiver's Lake were changed it would allow considerably more surface drainage to flow into the lake At present the culverts appear to drain the water away from the lake and into the creek It was also suggested the size of the lake might be cut down by use of a berm which would result in a smaller area to be filled. If the lake is independent of the groundwater regime two alternatives would have to be looked at - establish an on site groundwater facility or purchase a pump and pipe and pump water into the lake from the creek. The on site water supply investigation would cost $17,000 00 plus cost of drilling a well etc Estimated cost for Option A would be $102,000.00. Option B to buy pump and pipe would cost about $47 000.00 Mr McMillan noted there is no certainty the government will fund any portion of these costs due to the economic times and for sure there will be no funds available in 1987 If the M.D. decide to proceed with the project and it is determined by the ground water investigation and the on site water supply investigation that it is feasible to proceed the project can be put on hold until such time as the government has funds available and then the water pumping could be proceeded with and the M D would know the Government would be sharing costs with the M D However there is always a possibility the M D would have to absorb the costs incurred for the preliminary study, the ground water investigation and the on site water supply investigation - about $32,000.00 After further discussion Mr Maerz moved the matter be tabled until such time as Roger Clissold of Hydrogeological Consultants Ltd, can meet with council to discuss his ,/ Qe L preliminary study report . \- CARRIED Mats Bergman, from Fenton Bergman Engineering Company MATS BERGMAN entered the meeting at this time - 3 30 P M IN PAGE 9 N COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 28TH. 1987 There was discussion about the Kneehill Creek Study and Mr Bergman asked if there would be money available from Alberta Environment for the preliminary engineering study. Mr. Berg noted his department may be prepared to fund up to $150,000 00 for preliminary engineering, detailed engineering and hopefully possibily share costs for 3 or 4 projects He noted his department view this as a pilot project It was noted only two farmers have committted to proceed with the project by paying the $700 00 initial contribution required Mr McMilan advised there is no money available this year, but perhaps next year the two committed projects could be looked at for funding next year Mr Bergman indicated he could proceed with the preliminary design and then the farmer would know the approximate costs for the total project Mr McMillan noted he could seek approval for the program based on the Level One Study but would not be able to assure any funding. Fie suggested Mr Bergman undertake the preliminary design for the two projects and then submit this information to Alberta Environment for their consideration Mr Bergman agreed he would get together with Mr McMilan and Mr. Berg to ensure he would be providing them with the information they require on the preliminary design. Mr Boake moved Mats Bergman be requested to contact Alberta Enironment and determine what information they will require and then proceed with the conceptual preliminary design for dugouts for Mr. Mel Ralson of Acme and Mr H M Toews of Swalwell. CARRIED Mr Bergman then reviewed his plans for the Adams Road Project including the creek diversion He noted the creek diversion would cost about $15,000 00 and the M D. shouldl apply to Alberta Environment for funding to assist with the diversion, as undertaking the diversion would return about 8 to 10 acres of farmland to cultivation Mr McMillan indicated the project likely would not fit his department's criteria for funding, but would consider a written request from the M D Mr McMillan and Mr Berg left the meeting at this time 3 57 P M Mr. Bergman then reviewed the plans further with Council and noted the estimated cost for putting the road back on road allowance and diverting the creek would cost about $85,000 00 without engineering costs The other alternative of changing the curve on the west end of the existingn road diversion would eliminate some of the problems with the road but not all. This alternative would cost about $27, 250 00 without engineering costs Mr. Mueller moved the M D proceed with reconstruction of the road back on original road allowance and diversion of the creek and Mr Bergman request Alberta Environment to consider funding a portion of the costs incurred for the creek diversion CARRIED Page 10 8 HIVEHILL CREEK STUDY DUGOUTS ETC tA +U �0 r� RI . . ..• J L S To COUNCIL MEETING APRIL The proposed Swalwell water project Jeffery noted a meeting was held in Swalwell recently and costs for the project discussed with the residents Mr Bergman reviewed four different options and noted P F R A have funds available and is willing to commit funding to this project, but must know the route which the pipeline will take to reach the hamlet before making a final official committment After discussion of this matter, Mr Boake moved the M D proceed with Option 2 for the Swalwell Water Project - making use of a well 4 5 miles east of the hamlet and piping water to the hamlet - estimated cost of $530,000 00 and notice of intention to construct the water system be sent to the registered land owners and Mr Bergman be directed to apply to P F R A and the Government for funding for the project.
