Kindersley council backs landfill board nominees, approves grants and fire bylaw
By Kate Winquist
KINDERSLEY — Town council moved through a series of financial, administrative and operational decisions during its regular meeting on Nov. 24.
Councillors began the evening with a presentation from the Kindersley RCMP, who delivered their Mayor’s Report.
CAO Marty Baroni presented the town’s financial report before council endorsed four nominees to represent Kindersley on the Western Regional Landfill Inc. executive board. Council recommended Curtis Sackville, Kim Vogel, Warren Schafer and Randy Ervine for the four positions allotted to Kindersley under the board’s per-capita structure. Their appointments are expected to be confirmed at the WRLI annual general meeting on Dec. 10.
Council approved $6,750 in funding through the fall 2025 intake of the Community Grant Program. Nine community groups will each receive $750, including the Kindersley Chamber of Commerce, Kindersley & District Plains Museum, Rec Basketball, Pathway to Wellness, the Kindersley & District Health & Wellness Foundation, West Central Abilities, Kindersley Screen Arts, Kindersley Volleyball and the Rotary Club.
Councillors voted to support an application to the Canadian Housing Infrastructure Fund to seek grant funding for the Rosedale Lift Project, and also approved the Kindersley Fire Department’s updated standard operating guidelines.
A total of $259,772.11 in accounts paid by the town was accepted as submitted. Council then adopted all three readings of Bylaw 06-25, which establishes, maintains and governs the operation of the Kindersley Fire Department.
The consent agenda was approved, including the Nov. 12 KRPA meeting minutes and SaskWater’s October report.
