Council reverses stance on campground hirings, accepts bids from two local contractors Patricia Harcourt After receiving negative feedback from residents regarding the hiring of an ‘outside’ contractor to run both county campgrounds, county council has reversed the decision. After the personnel issue came out of a closed session, some discussion revealed that the original contractor had also backed out of the deal. At the March 23 meeting, council had accepted the proposal to enter into a contract with H.Y. Cleaning Services of Edmonton to operate both Camp Lake and Black Nugget Lake for the 2022-2024 camping seasons. The vote at that meeting was split 3-2, with Reeve Kevin Smook (Division 1), Councillor Lionel Williams (Division 2) and Councillor Barry Bruce (Division 4) in favour, and Deputy Reeve Gene Hrabec (Division 3) and Councillor Dale Pederson (Division 5) opposed. Those in favour said the fact that H.Y.’s bid was thousands of dollars less than the next local bid was enough to accept it, despite its being a bid from outside the county. Hrabec and Pederson felt the bids from local contractors should have been given more weight, and disputed the financial advantage of the outside bidder by questioning the equation used to crunch the numbers.
They also complained that they could not peruse the other candidates’ tender submissions for themselves to ascertain their assertions, as these were not included in the agenda package with that of the recommended bidder. Between this meeting and the April 6 council, the county received communication concerning the dissatisfaction some residents felt that local bidders were not given what they considered a fair chance at winning the contracts. “Money isn’t everything,” said one disgruntled citizen. However, with the H.Y. Cleaning business pulling out of the agreement, council had to reconsider its options in any case. Council met in closed session at its April 6 regular meeting and when the councillors came back into the public meeting, several motions were passed reversing the earlier decision and giving contracts to two other contractors. Interim CAO Rick McDonald reminded council that H.Y. had been given the contract for both campgrounds and was no longer available. “That company has withdrawn its proposal for internal reasons,” he said, provided as a result of discussions with council. “We need to move on this fairly quickly,” as council is looking at another proposal instead. Therefore, council needed to rescind the motion from the last meeting. The motion to rescind came
from Hrabec and read: “Council rescind Motion #22-115,” which was the motion to award the campground contracts to HY Cleaning Services. “Because they (H.Y. Cleaning) can’t fulfill the contract, this motion to rescind will allow council to over-ride it,” said McDonald, regarding the original motion. Smook added that “a special concession is being made,” in the case of the motion to rescind, due to the circumstances. Once that passed, two local contractors were given the green light to operate the campgrounds. Council authorized administration to negotiate a contract with Torpy Services for Camp Lake operations/hosting; and with Vincent and Colleen Jensen for Nugget Lake campground operations/hosting. Both would be for the 2022-2024 seasons. Hrabec thanked “the proponents who came forward to fill out a proposal.” He added: “It gets us back on track absolutely supporting our local businesses.” But Williams cautioned: “If you are going to be so protective of local contractors, from now on you should have an invited bid or closed bid,” explaining that “open (bids) have to be fair.” Smook suggested this topic would be a good one for discussion at a Governance and Priorities Committee meeting.
County appoints new Chief Administrative Officer Patricia Harcourt Beaver County officially appointed a new Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) at its April 6 regular meeting of county council. Kayleena Spiess’ appointment will be effective as of April 19, with her first council meeting to be held the following day on April 20. She is coming to Beaver County after serving as CAO for Westlock County since April 2021. At that time, she took over for Westlock’s interim CAO Rick McDonald, and history appears to be repeating itself at Beaver County in 2022. McDonald had worked for Westlock County during a period of transition before turning to help out Beaver County last summer after the former CAO took a leave of absence and then was terminated by Beaver County Council just prior to the municipal elections last fall.
McDonald was hired to help with problems in the operations and functioning of administration and council, and then became this county’s interim CAO. Beaver County also passed a motion to enter into an employment agreement with Spiess, who is scheduled to start April 19. These negotiations couldn’t happen until the appointment had been made. The county indicated it will issue a press release once that process is completed. McDonald, who has been guiding the new Beaver council since its election last October, was given notice that his contract would be ending as of April 27. A motion to that effect was passed following a closed session of council. “I think you’ve done a wonderful job for us,” said Reeve Kevin Smook (Division 1). “You got the ship righted and going down the river.” Deputy Reeve Gene Hrabec (Division 3) thanked
McDonald, adding: “I appreciate all the work you did with the review,” while noting: “There are still some bumps in the road,” when it comes to implementing the review’s recommendations. Last summer, Assistant CAO Margaret Jones stepped in as Acting CAO when Beck went on leave while Rick McDonald, acting in his capacity as a consultant, was hired to conduct a municipal governance review. The review was tabled last fall and the new council accepted its recommendations. McDonald was then appointed Interim CAO and helped guide council to start implementing these recommendations on conduct and procedure and other matters. However, with the departure of McDonald it was noted that not all the recommendations had been put into place yet, a task that may possibly now fall to Spiess to help council navigate.

County authorizes municipal mill rate increase of 2.773% Patricia Harcourt Beaver County expects its assessment base to decline over the next few years, resulting in a loss of revenue that will have to be made up in taxes. It is estimated that taxes may have to go up by 16 per cent over the next few years to make up the shortfall. County Council agreed at the April 6 regular meeting to offset that decline with a moderate increase of 2.773 per cent in the municipal mill rate starting in this taxation year. Administration recommended the minimal increase in mill rates on an annual basis would be easier for taxpayers to handle than one large increase down the road. “A small but consistent mill rate increase each year for the next five years will offset the expected significant decline in the assessment base from the province’s assessment model review,” stated Assistant Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Margaret Jones. She said that this year $363,748 would be raised from the increase and go into reserves “to offset future mill rate increases.” Jones explained that previously it was believed the county would have a surplus in the budget this year. However, adjustments made to cement and chip seal tenders and a proposed road study, as well as meeting technical
support, mean any extra funds are now being used. The motion to proceed with Option 2, a 2.773 per cent mill rate increase, was made by Reeve Kevin Smook (Division 1). “It’s a responsible way of (generating) a bit for the future so we won’t have a larger increase down the road,” he said, of the mill rate increase. Smook noted that the county will also have to deal with increased requisitions that the county collects for other agencies from which it does not directly benefit. These include fire protection/emergency management, policing, seniors housing, and education; along with possible increases to personal property assessments that could affect the taxes for an individual ratepayer. These are also expected to increase the tax burden down the road, he said. “We would all love no increase,” he said, referring to the mill rate, “but realistically I think we have to do something.” Division 4 Councillor Barry Bruce agreed with the proposed general municipal mill rate increase. However, he also wanted to add a mill rate increase to farmland only with a part of the taxes generated going towards road construction (Option 5). One mill would generate $114,761 towards these

shoulder pulls, rebuilt roads and terracem projects. “Farmers are willing to pay more for taxes if it goes to improved roads,” he said. “Every single farmer says the lowest cost in their operation is property tax and machinery is the biggest. They’ve come forward and said they are willing to pay more.” He suggested putting “one or even two mills on farmland” for that purpose. In terms of requisitions from other agencies and government departments, Bruce said: “We’ve been letting everyone else eat our lunch,” referring to BESC, Beaver Foundation, and education taxes. Ratepayers “don’t look line by line,” he said, to determine who is causing the rise in taxation. “They just blame the county.” Bruce concluded that he agreed with Smook’s motion but wanted to add “at least a mill to farmlands” to go specifically to roads. Deputy Reeve Gene Hrabec (Division 3) said: “I am okay with the motion on the floor,” but added he would “prefer to front end it.” In other words, have a bigger increase to start in the first year or two, then lower the mill rate increase from there. Hrabec said he “thought it would be an easier sell to add just a mill,” to this year’s budget, pointing out that farm-
ers are already experiencing larger input costs such as fertilizer this year. Councillor Lionel Williams (Division 2) agreed with Bruce, preferring Option 5 which combined the 2.773 per cent increase and the addition of a mill on farmland to deal with roads. Councillor Dale Pederson (Division 5) agreed with Smook’s motion, with no other comment. Smook’s motion to adopt Option 2 with a 2.773 per cent mill rate increase was passed, with no increase to farmland. Administration will now prepare a mill rate bylaw for the 2022 tax year. The bylaw will likely be vetted and voted on at the next council meeting on April 20. “Public participation may have been helpful for council to make a decision on acceptable mill rate increases,” stated Jones, in her report. “However, it is too late for meaningful public participation in the 2022 budget. “A public participation plan will be prepared if council wishes to seek public input on future budgets.” However, the county has since posted a media release on its website informing ratepayers that council “is considering” raising the mill rate. There is no mention of the motion that passed on this increase at the April 6 regular meeting.
