Mayor Cathy Heron delivered her annual State of the City address on Wednesday, saying 2023 has been a year of council “laying the groundwork” for St. Albert's future.
St. Albert city councillor Sheena Hughes has asked administration to study the possible benefits and consequences of implementing an penalty or increased tax rate on properties that have been deemed uninhabitable.
Unless solutions are implemented in the near future, some council-determined service levels may not be met as St. Albert's city administration and overall corporate operations are being stretched too thin, Chief Administrative Officer Bill Fletcher says.
