From the meeting
Council authorized administration to enter into the required agreement with the Forest Resource Improvement Association of Alberta for Vegetation Management Grant funding in the Hamlet of Lac des Arcs. The attached fire memo said the MD would also work with the community association to apply for FRIAA grant funding for additional mitigation, including thinning, pruning, and cleaning priority areas. The opportunity is tied to wildfire-mitigation work and grant administration, with follow-on vegetation management likely after the agreement is executed.
