Grande Prairie City Council has directed city administration to redesign and reinstall three service club signs to be placed at the new city boundaries.
According to the city, the project will be funded through the Transportation Department’s operating budget and aligns with council’s plans to build an inclusive community through the enhancement of visibility of service organizations in the city.
Grande Prairie Mayor Jackie Clayton says the new signs represent the variety of volunteer-led service organizations operating in the city.
“Updating and relocating them will help ensure that our community’s spirit is highlighted while acknowledging the valuable role these clubs play,” she says.
The redesign process will include the consideration of input from stakeholders to ensure the new signs represent each club’s contribution to the city. The updated signs will be placed at the city’s new limits to make a positive impression on visitors to the city.
The city says details on the timeline and final designs will be made public once they are finalized.
