Public Health Measures in the Village of Spring Lake

 

As a result of the implementation of the Government of Alberta's stronger public health measures to help stop the spread of COVID-19, the Village of Spring Lake is shifting to a by appointment only service at our facilities, effective December 11, 2020. This means our facilities are temporarily closed to walk-in visitors.

 

Spring Lake staff are still hard at work behind the scenes, ensuring our residents have access to the services and supports they need. If residents require fire permits, dog tags or need in-person support please call us at 780-963-4211 or by emailing us at villageoffice@springlakealberta.com.

 

Public Works is working hard to get the Spring Lake outdoor rink up and running.  We will post notices when it is ready to be enjoyed by residents.  However, please note that the warming shack and portable toilets will be closed.

 

We ask residents to please adhere to the mandatory public health measures put in place by the Alberta Government and Alberta Health Services including wearing face coverings in all workplace and facilities outside of your home and holding no indoor or outdoor gatherings.

 

We thank all Spring Lake residents for your cooperation and patience during this time.
