Department which was first on the scene.
The fire department received the fire call at
about 4 p.m. on Sept. 25.
According to Eric Alexander, Strathmore
Fire Department captain, the department re-
sponded with three fire trucks and 14 mem-
bers. They were assisted by two fire apparatus
and six members from Wheatland West Fire
Department.
“According to dispatch records, it took us
seven minutes from the initial alert to get on
Badgers season recap scene, and the fire was extinguished about an
hour after we were on scene; it was complete-
ly extinguished,” said Alexander.
According to Strathmore Fire Department
Chief Trent West, the fire was deliberately set.
“We’re working in conjunction with the
RCMP on this file,” he said. “And as we gather
more information or things are made availa-
ble to us, then we interview whoever was in-
volved.”
West couldn’t say how the fire was started.

Municipal Building Project Update

You’ve probably noticed the new municipal building construction has begun in the north parking lot in
Kinsmen Park. The parking has been a concern for residents, and we hear you. For the duration of the
project we have outlined available parking (see the map) to highlight alternative spots such as Lakeside
Blvd, Lambert Park and the Ball Diamond Parking lot to grab a spot as you shop and enjoy the park.
Next Regular
Council Meeting:
Oct 16th, 2019
Next Committee
of the Whole
Meeting:
Oct 9th, 2019
In the north end of the parking lot some trees have been removed and transplanted due to construction.
We want to assure residents the most healthy trees being removed around the Devonian Gardens are
finding new homes around the Town; trees will only be moved if absolutely necessary. Our teams will be
watching carefully for wildlife and follow protocols to conserve and protect as necessary. And rest assured
the landscaping for the new area will include garden greenery again. As part of the project over 130 trees
will also be planted upon completion.
