Welcome to the Municipal District of Provost!
2012 Business Plan
The M.D’s 2012 Business Plan, which provides a synopsis of the high level goals, institutional philosophy and guiding principles for both the coming year and beyond, was ratified by Council at its January 12th regular meeting. A copy may be downloaded here, or a hardcopy may be picked up at the Administration Office.
Bodo Transfer Site
Conversion will take place September 1, 2011.
In an effort to reduce costs the Waste Management Authority passed a resolution to convert the Bodo Transfer Site to an unsupervised site, accepting only bagged waste, pesticide containers and recycled paper or cardboard. The change will be a benefit to the residents as the transfer site will be open on a continuous basis.
Oil filters will no longer be accepted for recycling at the transfer site.
There are plans to remove the burning pit but until the pit can be cleaned up, please feel free to place clean burnables into the pit.
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping the site neat.
If you have any questions or concerns call Iris Larson at 780-753-2434 (work) or 780-753-2011 (home)
