Description

The objective of the Slave Lake Regional Recovery Plan is to return the region to its pre-disaster state while ensuring that the communities are not socially, environmentally or economically disadvantaged by the wildfire event and are well positioned for future growth. This should not be viewed simply in terms of rebuilding to the previous status quo as this may no longer be sustainable, competitive, or functional in the community. The plan was developed to provide the region with support as it rebuilds the capacity and recovers infrastructure to support its own recovery. This plan was created through collaboration with the Municipal District of Lesser Slave River No. 124, the Town of Slave Lake, Sawridge First Nation and the Government of Alberta. The plan is built upon the objectives, goals and vision for their communities.
