Three Hills residents lined up to get their fill of fresh, potable water after last week’s Boil Water Advisory due to a severe water main break at the Town’s pump house. The service remained in place Tuesday to Thursday at the Three Hills Town Office. A water truck remained in service at the Kneehill County office for an additional day.

Kneehill County Council passed Tax Rate Bylaw 1848 on Tuesday, April 26, 2022.

Under the Bylaw, modest changes to residential, farmland, and non-residential tax rates will ensure current service level standards are maintained in response to increased provincial budget pressures.

Individual impacts will vary based on assessment:
