The Municipality proceeded with the utility repair work as soon as possible, through the required assessment, design, approvals, funding, procurement, and construction processes. The project was expedited to support as much of Jasper's rebuild as possible. 

Depending on the condition of infrastructure at each leasehold, the following work may be undertaken by the Municipality:  

• Replacing the CC / service valve 

• Installing or extending the service lateral onto the property 

A CC is a municipal water shutoff valve placed on the line connecting a home or building to the main line.  CC valves are usually located near the property line and control the water supply to your home.  These valves allow water to be shut off and restored as needed. Depending on the neighbourhood, CC valves may be located at the front of the property or in the alleyway. 

• Cabin Creek, Lodgepole and Maligne / Miette Areas . Refer to maps below. 

• Specific lots will be communicated directly with leaseholders.  
  

This work has been approved by Jasper Municipal Council and will be supported through the Disaster Recovery Program (DRP). 

• Construction is anticipated in the following areas at these times:  

  • Cabin Creek – May and June 

  • Lodgepole (R4) - July and August 

  • Maligne Avenue/ Miette Avenue – July and August 

• Information on future rotations will be released at a later date. Information will be shared directly with leaseholders and contractors or can be found here: Rebuilding Jasper Industry Bulletin | Engage Jasper 

Contractors are averaging completion of 3-3.5 service valve repairs/replacements per day, therefore construction on your property should take a few hours if there are no complications.  

Leaseholders can expect direct email correspondence prior to work commencing.  

Information on the construction schedule can be found on the Jasper Rebuild Industry Bulletin here: Rebuilding Jasper Industry Bulletin | Engage Jasper  

Completing this work before, or alongside, home rebuilding will help reduce future disruptions and make it easier for rebuilt homes and properties to connect to municipal services. 

This work is intended to support  your  rebuild. By completing underground municipal water and sewer work now, we aim to simplify future connections and reduce construction disruption later in the rebuilding process.  

Your builder or contractor may need to coordinate directly with Municipal Operations to align servicing work with the municipal infrastructure program. Builders and contractors will be contacted directly and address any concerns or inquiries to the Municipality of Jasper’s Construction Coordinator.  

The Municipality will review whether any municipal-side servicing work is still needed at your property. If work is required through Phase 1, or later through Phase 2 water and sewer main upgrades, the Municipality will contact you or your builder directly.   

No, this project will support and expedite rebuild timelines across the community. This work will make it easier and more efficient for your builder to connect to municipal infrastructure. If your build is at a critical stage while the municipal work is set to proceed, we are committed working with you to streamline all scopes of work and ensure our projects support your safe and efficient rebuild. 

• Yes. Leaseholders may continue to proceed with rebuilding in accordance with their permits, approvals, and builder schedules. 

• If you are planning to rebuild this summer, please have your builder contact Stef Dolan at Ph. 780-852-3040 or at E. sdolan@jasper-alberta.ca. Builders and contractors have been notified of this requirement through the Rebuilding Jasper Industry Bulletin. 

To complete this work safely and efficiently, municipal crews and contractors may require temporary access to portions of private property located next to municipal rights-of-way.  

Access may be needed at portions of private property located next to municipal right-of-ways. Some CC / Service valves will be accessed at the front of the property, and some will be at the back of the property near the alleyway.  

No, there will be no cost to leaseholders for work associated with Phase 1 of this project. 

This project includes repair and refurbishment of the Municipality’s underground water and sanitary services such as: CC/ Service Valves and service laterals. 

Homeowners remain responsible for the private services required to connect their homes to the municipal system. 

Leaseholders remain responsible for all work undertaken by them and their builder on their leasehold, including installing or extending service laterals to connect to municipal infrastructure. 

 View the map below for the areas included in Phase 2:   

Phase 2 is currently being tendered with award expected in June and project commencement in late July 

Phase 2 will include all work carried out in Phase 1, along with more complex municipal infrastructure upgrades in some locations. 

•  CC / Service Valves 

• Service Laterals on to property 

• Water main renewal  

• Sewer rehabilitation
