COUNCIL CORNER: Town of Tofield re-opens playground structures – will be sanitized daily

The relaunch strategy has brought about many changes in a short amount of time.

These changes have often happened both quickly and swiftly. Through the work of Administration and the Operations Department I’m pleased to announce the re-opening of our playground structures.

The Town-owned structures will be sanitized once per day. The product used is a Health Canada certified disinfectant, and is a liquid based hand sanitizer. This product is safe for use on all products both indoor and outdoor and will also be used in our Town owned facilities on all surfaces for sanitizing.

As with all approaches with COVID 19, please use your judgment, abide by Provincial regulations and choose the best course for yourself and your family. At this time there will be no league play, nor tournaments on our ball diamonds or soccer pitches, and, usage of either is still being asked to be only members of the same home and family.

Also at this time, the spray park will remain closed, and it is likely to be so for the remainder of the season. This decision follows the guidelines of the province and coincides with the Phase 3 guidelines.

Please refer to: https://www.alberta.ca/coronavirus-info-for-albertans to review the three planned Phases for Alberta.

Please note: success on the parks remaining open is up to all of us. If they are being abused, they could be closed again. Please follow signage and Provincial regulations.

Respectfully submitted,

Mayor and Council

Town of Tofield
