EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE REPORT SEPTEMBER 20th, 1995
The Executive Committee of James Hanger and Richard M Vickery
met on Wednesday, September 20th, 1995 at the M D of Kneehill
office in Three Hills, commencing at 9 15 A M Also present
were Lonnie McCook, Public Works Superintendent and Jennifer
Deak, Assistant Administrator, who recorded the minutes
The following items were reviewed.
1 Councillor Policy review
Executive Committee recommend a committee of Mr Vickery and Mr
Hanger review all councillor policies including renumeration and
reimbursements prior to the Organizational Meeting and present
any recommendations for policy changes at the Organizational
meeting
2 Letter from Gary H Gibson re- road request denial
Mr Gary Gibson has responded to the M D 's letter of August
3/95 regarding his request for a road on the west side of his
property, S W 27- 30 -26 -W4 Mr Gibson acknowledges there is
access to the farm yard via a trail up through the pasture more
than a quarter of a mile long but notes there is very little
gravel, two gates to open and a hill with no ditches Mr
Gibson also notes the approach is not wide enough to get
machinery or trucks in and out and the location has the Dafoe
bridge on one side and a hill and curve on the other thus making
visibility very limited Also noted is the fact the trail is
through the centre part of a field, quite impractical to fence
and requires gates to keep cattle in the pasture and out of the
yard, there are no ditches on this trail which may cause snow
drifting problems during the winter months
Executive Committee recommend a letter be sent to Mr Gibson
advising him he was aware of the access to this property when he
recently purchased this land; it is not the M D `s policy to
build private roads; the approach will be addressed when the
bridge is addressed and this should alleviate the curve and
sight distance problems
3 AB Mun Safety Codes Service Commission - request for ma

member municipalities provide a municipal map to the
