Cold Lake, AB – The City is making a significant investment in Cold Lake’s two public cemeteries while providing residents with additional options for memorializing loved ones who have passed on.
Along with traditional in-ground burial plots, five columbaria structures are now available at Lakeview Cemetery (2205-1 Ave.). Each columbarium unit contains small compartments (called niches) which can be purchased in advance or as needed, for the permanent interment of urns containing cremated remains. In addition to the columbaria, a newly-installed memorial wall and memorial benches are also available to provide a permanent memorial to loved ones whose remains are not interred at a City cemetery.

Cold Lake, AB – The City is proposing a rebate of business licensing fees paid by commercial and home-based businesses which operate within the city of Cold Lake. The proposed rebate is in alignment with the Government of Alberta’s Red Tape Reduction Strategy to promote positive business growth and streamline approvals amid challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We know many of our local businesses have suffered over the past eight months with the restrictions that are in place due to COVID, particularly those in the hospitality and tourism sectors,” said Kevin Nagoya, Chief Administrative Officer. “What we are proposing to City Council is taking the licensing fees paid for 2020 and giving them back to businesses, as a way of easing some of the financial pressure.”

Cold Lake, AB – The City of Cold Lake encourages residents who wish to celebrate Halloween by trick-or-treating or handing out candy, to do so responsibly while adhering to all necessary health protocols. The City is not looking to impose any further restrictions relating to COVID-19 for Halloween celebrations beyond those required by Alberta’s Chief Medical Officer of Health. The City has no bylaws that impose a curfew for Halloween.

Cold Lake, AB – The City of Cold Lake is nearing completion on a challenging roadway reconstruction project.
The stretch of the 53 Avenue roadway between 57A Street and 58 Street in Cold Lake South has been under construction for some time due to complex soil conditions and a high water table. The deep utility infrastructure also required an overhaul and the underground conditions which led to the roadway’s failure made replacement of the deep utilities challenging.
With the underground utility work now complete, local contractor E-Construction has won a $425,000 contract to complete the restoration of the roadway.

Cold Lake, AB – Cooking fires continue to be the leading cause of home fires in Alberta and most are preventable. Fire Prevention Week is October 4-10, 2020 and the City of Cold Lake and Cold Lake Fire-Rescue are urging residents to take simple steps to prevent fires in the kitchen.
“Often when we’re called to a fire that started in the kitchen, the residents tell us they only left the room for a few minutes. That’s all the time it takes for a dangerous fire to start,” says Chief Jeff Fallow with Cold Lake Fire-Rescue. “Cooking happens in kitchens across the Lakeland every single day and it has to be done responsibly. Being responsible means never leaving any cooking unattended on the stove.”
Other ways to ensure fire safety in the kitchen include:
