Due to a resolution passed at SUMA, the provincial government has asked SGI to expand their policies to allow the use of golf carts on certain municipal roads, if their municipality passes bylaws, subject to limitations and SGI approval. The town will be taking a first glance at a golf cart bylaw at their next council meeting. Stay tuned for more information on this.
The town did contract street sweeping on May 30 and 31. This really cleaned up the roads after winter. The street committee also conducted its semi-annual unsightly property tour and we are happy to announce that so many of our residents take great pride in the beautification of their properties. If you haven’t done so already, this is a great time to ensure your yard is clean, grass and weeds cuts and junk is removed from your property. This also helps ensure that we keep the mosquito population down and don’t encourage the risk of rodents finding homes.
We are extremely thrilled that we have now welcomed our newest doctor, Mada Wentzel, into the community. The Luseland Clinic is now running three days a week as opposed to two, with Dr. Johann Wentzel, Dr. Mada Wentzel and NP Janelle Fischer each coming one day each week. Please follow the town‘s Facebook page to follow the monthly clinic hours.
We’ve had some staffing changes over the past few weeks. The town says goodbye to assistant administrator Virginia Brice who was with us for the past four years. She will now be working at the Luseland Credit Union. We wish you the best of luck in your future venture. You will be missed. We will now welcome Krystal Bazylinski to our office staff, who will start on Monday, June 12 in the assistant admin role. She will be working towards her LGA courses and taking on the administrator role in the future. We are sad as we now lose an amazing councillor but we feel she will be an exceptional addition to our municipal team as she has significant knowledge and skills that she brings to the table.
