Stettler Town Council has approved funding to enhance the entrance to the local museum.
The Town & Country museum’s current entrance causes traffic bottlenecks during events, as the single-lane access cannot accommodate two-way vehicle flow.
Town staff met with museum representatives and determined that there is adequate space to widen the existing entrance and construct a new approach to the west side of the property.
During their July 8 meeting, council approved the use of town labour and equipment, and will cover the $3,570 in material costs through the Community Development Fund.
As part of the motion, council will also approach the County of Stettler about cost-sharing the material cost for the project.
