Town of Coronation receives $1,000,000 in pool funding

Local News

The Town of Coronation has agreed to sell the golf course gazebo to the Coronation School Outreach Program for one dollar, where it will be used as part of a community project.


The Coronation School Outreach Program is developing a temporary park in memory of Mrs. Lori Eno, located at 4801 Victoria Ave. The project is being funded through the SOARING grant program. Mrs. Eno was a well-respected and beloved former school secretary, as well as a dedicated member of the community. She passed away in August 2025.


In other news, the Coronation and District Wellness Society has received a $1,000,000 Community Facility Enhancement Program (CFEP) grant from the Alberta government for the new Coronation swimming pool. As part of the funding requirements, acknowledgement must be made at the facility. The town council has agreed to spend $192 on an aluminum sign to meet this requirement.


Mayor Shelley Cook also noted that once school enrollment falls below 35 students, funding is cut in half.


Battle River Alliance for Economic Development (BRAED) is working to map all industrial lots within its region. The initiative will serve as a centralized contact list when businesses express interest in locating within a community. The Town of Stettler has now joined the organization.


Council moved into a closed session at 7:38 p.m. to discuss in-camera items, reconvening in open session at 8:34 p.m.
