Wabamun Community Support Project
The Public Engagement for the Wabamun Vision Plan listed the following community supports needed in the area:
- Repurposing and increased utilization of Jubilee Hall
- Grants for arts, recreation and cultural events as an incentive
- Community League as a support
- Community Event incentives
- Activities such as winter recreation, recreation for youth and seniors
Some of the key findings in the Wabamun Vision engagements related to the need for additional recreation and culture programs as well as community support(s). Could a new community league help to fulfill these identified needs?
Engagement stage is now complete. Next steps will be posted here once the information gathered has been analysed.
