Update - June 9, 2020

Today, the Government of Alberta announced moving to Phase 2 of Alberta’s COVID-19 Relaunch Strategy.
This phase now includes recreation facilities, physical activity and recreation, which were originally planned for phase 3.

It will take time, up to several weeks in some cases, to prepare and re-open our facilities to the public. A timeline will be shared, once confirmed. Thank you for your patience.

Updates - May

May 1, 2020

Alberta's Relaunch Strategy

Yesterday, Premier Jason Kenney presented Alberta’s Relaunch Strategy. Put simply, the plan is the Province’s path to carefully and gradually lift the restrictions imposed on our economy, and our lives. Given our collective efforts of physical distancing, good hygiene practices and staying safe together, we are slowing the spread of COVID-19. As a result, the plan is intended to carefully move through stages of the relaunch strategy while ensuring we all continue to follow public health guidelines, all the while, shifting our focus from the fear and anxiety of the past few weeks and start looking to the future with hope and cautious confidence.

 Download Alberta's Relaunch Strategy

Early Actions:

Some immediate steps that will be taken starting today include:

  • Non-urgent/elective surgeries as soon as May 4
  • Dental and other regulated health-care workers such as physiotherapists, speech language, chiropractors, optometrists, occupational therapists, starting May 4, as long as approved guidelines set by their respective professional colleges
  • Vehicle access to parking lots and staging areas on public lands and parks on May 1
  • Alberta Parks’ online campground reservation system will open on May 14 for bookings at select campgrounds starting June 1 onward
  • Access to boat launches in select provincial parks May 1
  • Golf courses can open on May 2, with restrictions including keeping clubhouses and pro shops closed

Updates - April

April 27, 2020

Community garage and yard sales are not permitted until the public health orders are relaxed or cancelled. This decision was made for the following reasons:

  • Garage sales encourage mass gatherings and physical closeness
  • Safety of patrons, sanitizer use, and disinfecting protocols cannot be easily monitored
  • Garage sales deal with cash handling and provide an opportunity for surface disease transfer
  • Garage sale goers often go from sale to sale and community to community
  • Inside a garage may not allow for appropriate physical distancing
  • Garage sale items are mainly used, previously handled and don’t have exterior wrapping or protective coverings.

Sales through sites such as Facebook Marketplace, Kijiji or e-Bay with online payment and curbside pickup are acceptable options.

April 20, 2020

Effective April 21, 2020, the Government of Alberta will be temporarily suspending applications for the $30 million in emergency social services funding to charities, not-for-profits and civil society organizations to support their COVID-19 response. Government has received over 600 applications. Current applications are being reviewed, and approvals for urgent requests will occur before reopening intake of applications. 

April 14, 2020

Facility, event and program closures and cancellations

Town facilities including the Town Office, the Morinville Leisure Centre, Morinville Community Cultural Centre, as well as outdoor baseball/softball diamonds, soccer fields, skate park and outdoor splash park will remain closed until June 30, 2020.

April 3, 2020

Property Tax and Utility Bill Deferral Program

On April 3, 2020, Morinville Town Council voted to approve the Property Tax and Utility Payment Deferral Program. This program defers the property tax penalty deadline and allows for a deferral on all municipal utility bills to August 31, 2020. Complete details at COVID-19 Tax and Utilities.

Facility, event and program closures and cancellations

Town facilities including Town Hall, the Morinville Leisure Centre, Morinville Community Cultural Centre, outdoor baseball/softball diamonds, soccer fields and outdoor splash park will remain closed until May 31, 2020.

Social Services Support for COVID-19 Funding

Overview
The Alberta Government is providing $30 million to municipalities, charitable and non-profit organizations to provide help to individuals, seniors, families and other vulnerable Albertans who are isolated or impacted by measures to contain COVID-19.

Eligible Services
For services to be eligible, they must address the social well-being of those most affected by COVID-19 and the measures implemented to limit the spread of the virus.

Those impacted may include seniors, individuals with chronic medical conditions, caregivers, families with children at home and individuals with limited access to supports. Services should align with one or more of the following funding priorities:

  • provide supports to help sustain people remain members in the community during the COVID-19 pandemic;
  • fund civil society organizations to deliver projects for vulnerable Albertans who are in need during the COVID-19 pandemic; and
