St. Albert Civic Centre Announces Week-Long Closure for Essential Water System Upgrades

The heart of St. Albert's municipal operations, the St. Albert Civic Centre, is set to undergo essential maintenance, prompting a temporary closure for one week. Residents and businesses should note that the facility will be inaccessible from Monday, August 28, through Monday, September 4, with services resuming promptly on Tuesday, September 5.

This critical closure is not for aesthetic enhancements but for vital upgrades to the building's domestic water system.

City officials emphasize that these repairs are essential to ensure the long-term reliability and functionality of the centre's infrastructure, which serves thousands of residents annually.

During this period, all in-person services typically offered at the Civic Centre will be unavailable. This includes critical functions such as reception, utility billing, tax payments, business licensing, and various permits and planning services.

While the physical doors will be shut, the city has ensured that vital services remain accessible through alternative channels.

Residents are strongly encouraged to utilize the city's robust online platforms, where many services can be completed efficiently from the comfort of their homes. For those requiring direct assistance, the city's dedicated staff will be available via email and phone.

A comprehensive list of services and contact information can be found on the City of St. Albert's official website, providing clear guidance on how to navigate municipal matters during the closure.

For general inquiries, residents can reach out to 780-459-1500, and in the event of an emergency, the dedicated line is 780-458-7700.

Additionally, email correspondence can be sent to city@stalbert.ca. The City of St. Albert appreciates the public's understanding and cooperation as they undertake these necessary upgrades to improve the Civic Centre's facilities for everyone.
