LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS COMBINED MEETING FRIDAY,
FEBRUARY 7th, 1992
Reeve Marz called the meeting to order and asked if there
were any other items to add to the agenda
The item regarding proposed provincial electorial
boundaries was then discussed
Mrs Connie Osterman reviewed with the meeting the proposed
boundaries for the area from Edmonton south The map she
brought with her showed the old boundaries and an overlay
showed the proposed new boundaries The adjustments to the
boundaries are quite significant The City of Calgary and
City of Edmonton both have slivers taken from various
urbanridings and added to a rural one
It was suggested the city ridings should be totally
contained within the city boundaries Doing this might
result in the loss of one or two rural ridings, but perhaps
this would the better way to go Mrs Osterman urged all
the municipalities to become involved in the process and
make submissions to the Commission
Mrs Mcdonald spoke on behalf of the Village of Linden
They are greatly concerned about the proposed changes to
the ridings in this area The Village do not feel they
should be part of the Innisfail riding but should be left
in with Airdrie Proposal is not good at all for Linden
Mr Gehring noted the Town of Trochu is trying to work
closely with Three Hills and the M D at this time on
various matters and he felt Trochu should be left in the
same riding as Three Hills
Mr Robertson spoke on behalf of Three Hills They do not
wish to see this kind of a split as they are working with
other communities on the KEDA concept and the proposed
boundaries will reduce the lobbying power of this area
Ross Dean - The Highway 21 corrider group has been working
for a number of years to strengthen the communities in this
area, their area has been sheared off and would not be
able to make their voice heard The Village sent in a
presentation to the Commission and were advised they may or
may not get an opportunity to speak at the public hearing
scheduled for Drumheller
Mr. Schumacher noted this indicates the Commission did not
allow sufficient time for everyone to make their
presentations Would encourage everyone to make an
appearance at the hearings as this is an important issue
Also copies of the submissions should be sent to the
Premier's office, your M L A and Ray Martin, Leader of the
Opposition An appearance at the hearing should indicate
to the Commission the concern of the people
Mr Severtson agreed it was important for the people to
appear at the hearings The final report is due in June
and if there is no pressure from the people the Government
may feel there is no concern and accept the recommendations
from the Commission
Mr Ramsden noted the Town of Three Hills sent in a
submission, did not get an appointment, only a letter of ,.
thanks.
LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS COMBINED MEETING FRIDAY,
FEBRUARY 7th, 1992
Mrs Osterman noted this is a people process and if the
people cannot be heard there is a problem
It was also suggested the Chief Electorial Officer should
be advised of the number of submissions which have been
submitted to ensure he is aware of the concerns of the
people
Mr Marz noted the M.D has not discussed the issue as yet,
but would suggest any submissions should be co- ordinated
with the urban centers
There was discussion about the CTAP program, and the M D
method of allocating funds - that if an urban center
providing funding for a project the M D will also allocate
funding from their CTAP program
There was discussion about the Highway 9 and 21 Highway
Advisory Committee, which was created by the local
hospitals in response to the Rainbow Report Hospitals
will work together on hospital issues which should help
give them a stronger voice with the Province
Mrs Osterman extended congratulations to the hospitals on
moving the emergency service to one location This move
improves the lives of the doctors and improves patient
efficiency and should save money
Mrs McMillan noted the Drumheller Health and Advisory
Committee are also involved in the 9 and 21 Hospital
Advisory Committee Extended thanks to Mr Schumacher for
his anti tobacco lobby. Discussed concerns about sale of
tobacco to children under 18 Reviewed services provided
by the Health Unit including their home care program, their
health promotion award, single entry point for seniors, and
noted communicable diseases are still a problem.
Mr. Schumacher noted there is still a chance his bill on
anti smoking may be re- introduced
There was further discussion about the single point of
entry for seniors and how this is handled in other areas
Mr Ramsbottom reported briefly on the Drumheller Hospital
He noted there is confusion at the provincial level about
how to deal with mental health problems and would suggest
the province have only one department dealing with the
issue.
Mrs Kuben.ic spoke on behalf of the School Division
Expressed thanks to the province for the three year capital
budget, noted there should be more co- ordination of
services at the Provincial level for education, social
services and health services when dealing with children
There was discussion with Mrs Osterman regarding the two
count system and the problems it may create for school
divisions with their funding process Mrs Bigelow
reviewed the concerns of the Division about this system
There was a question to Mrs. Feltham regarding the
abandoned railway lines and what plans does the government
have for the property
LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS COMBINED MEETING FRIDAY,
FEBRUARY 7th, 1992
Mrs Feltham indicated could not answer that question but
would try to get an answer
Mrs Joyce McDonald presented a report on behalf of the
Golden Hills Lodge
Mrs Bigelow expressed thanks to Mrs Osterman, the
Province, M D of Kneehill and the towns and villages for
continuing with the Community Resource Worker program in
this area There are presently three good workers and the
program is a great help to the children and their families
There was brief discussion about the Big Country Tourist
Zone and it was noted there are alot of volunteers willing
to work to improve the tourism attractions in the area, and
the Government should ensure road blocks are not put in the
way of such developments
Mrs Osterman mentioned a meeting in Red Deer at the Red
Deer Lodge February 14th, 1992 at 1 30 - Alberta 2000 which
is dealing with economic development, as well as health and
education Encouraged people to attend this meeting
Health Care costs are too high and cannot continue,
education must be a priority
Reeve Marz suggested there must be accountability brought
into the Health Care System Perhaps there should be the
ability to charge a minimum fee to stop the abuse of the
system
Mrs. Feltham indicated there has been discussion regarding
user fees for the health system, but there are different
thoughts coming from different age groups
Mrs Feltham also noted home care is a good program and
health units doing an excellen job
She then reviewed the various committees she is working
on as an M P , and provided information to the meeting
about some changes being made to the G S T tax, transfer
of federal funds to Alberta, the 125th birthday of Canada,
and suggested people must continue to be progressive
Mr. Schumacher expressed concern that the Federal
Government was so inflexible about location of the proposed
women's prison Discussed this matter at length
Mr. Jim Fisher, Mayor of Drumheller spoke at length about
the bid made by Drumheller to have the women's prison
located in Drumheller as all the facilities are there
already as well as sufficient land Locating it in
Drumheller could save the federal government millions of
dollars, but their application was not considered
There was discussion about the amount of Federal Government
borrowing costs and government spending which must be
brought under control.
It was suggested the Provincial Government should continue
its CTAP and Team Tourism Program
LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS COMBINED MEETING FRIDAY,
FEBRUARY 7th. 1992
Brief discussion about the Wild Rose Community Futures
Association and noted one goal of the committee is business
retention and diversification
Mr Severton spoke to the meeting - generally agreed with
user fees for Health Care - however felt the biggest cost
to the system is the providers of the health care
Discussion about the possibility of limiting the number of
doctors in the Province and limiting enrollment in this
faculty
Mrs McMillan from the Health Unit suggested there are many
other reasons for health care costs but perhaps user fees
would be a real problem for some young people
Various other comments were made about health care costs,
that the Provincial Government should listen more to people
and limiting enrollment in the medical profession might
limit the number of specialists available in future
The date for the next meeting was set for.
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5TH, 1993
Reeve Marz expressed thanks to all who attended,
particularly to Mrs. Feltham, Mrs Osterman, Mr Schumacher
and Mr Severtson
