Division 3 Red Deer County
Recreation &
Culture Board
Red Deer County set up new recreation and culture boards in 2007
to correspond with the newly-defined electoral divisions. Division 3 was to have a nine member board with 3 representatives from Springbrook,
2 representatives from the Aberdeen area (southeast area of
division),
and 1 each from the rural areas of Big Bend, Ridgewood, Edwell
and Penhold.
Each board is given a budget by the County from a recreation
levy on each property owner's taxes and has the
responsibility to provide access for residents of the division
to recreational and cultural opportunities in whatever way each
board sees fit. Some boards create opportunities while others
fund proposals from individuals or community groups.
The Division 3 board has decided to provide opportunities by
funding community groups and individuals who can provide
programs, events and activities for the community. The board is
also funding individuals who participate in recreational and
cultural activities by refunding up to 50% of the cost of the
activity to a maximum of $100 per year per person.
