No Drop-Off Zone for Hardisty?
In October, many of you attended the consultation session about the Hardisty School drop-off zone. Recently, we have heard that it might not be built after all, yet have not been officially informed of this.
We need to ensure that the City of Edmonton and Edmonton Public Schools understand how important it is to provide a drop-off zone at the school to keep kids safe and ease everyday traffic congestion for the community.
To find out more about this decision and to share your thoughts, we encourage you to contact the City (311), Hardisty School (469-0426), EPSB Trustee Sarah Hoffman (429-8086), and Councillor Ben Henderson (496-8146). And feel free to post your thoughts on our Facebook page.
-UPDATE-
We have recently been made aware that the funding for this project was voted down by the City of Edmonton Council back in January however we were never notified. Currently we are asking Councillor Ben Henderson's office if they can help in providing more information as to why council voted against the funding to Edmonton Public Schools, why the Community League or Parent Council were not informed and where the money got allocated instead. |
