Mill Creek school replacement plans unveiled

Construction will begin next month on an $11.5-million new Mill Creek school to replace a 1946 building parents say is outdated and decrepit.

Following lobbying from parents, the Edmonton public school board also decided at a June closed-door meeting to pull $1 million from capital reserves to build extra room in the school to lease to a daycare centre.

“I’m very grateful and very relieved. Frankly, I don’t know what I would do if there wasn’t daycare in the school,” said Chloe Chalmers, whose children are currently enrolled in Grade 2 and a privately run daycare at the existing Mill Creek School at 9735 80 Ave.

In 2007, the Ritchie neighbourhood school dodged closing by retaining only its Spanish bilingual program, which is open to students from across the city. Last year, it had 301 students enrolled.

Although the school district received provincial approval in October 2014 to replace the school, and secured design funding in January 2015, the province promised no construction money until fall 2016.

After spring planning sessions with people in the community, the district announced last week shovels will be in the ground shortly.

No movement on idea to build mid-sized stadium in Edmonton despite soccer’s successes
With all kinds of encouraging signs that soccer in Canada — and specifically in Edmonton — is on the upswing, the owner of FC Edmonton doesn’t see any thing new that he’s hyped about in efforts to get a mid-sized stadium built in our city.

Edmonton, along with Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto, are Soccer Canada’s four host cities for Canada-USA-Mexico World Cup soccer bid confirmed Wednesday.

Meanwhile Major League Soccer (MLS) earlier this week appointed Diego A. Moratorio to the new position of general manager for MLS Canada, in a bid to help grow interest north of the border with sponsorship increases at the league and club level.

Vancouver, Montreal, and Toronto are in the MLS, while Edmonton is in the struggling North American Soccer League.

FC Edmonton owner Tom Fath realizes the ball is still in city council’s court. The city continues to follow the medium-sized stadium strategy that council approved in 2012.

The council strategy would consider expanding the 5,000 seat stadium, if the Eddies sold out every game. Fath said attendance is improving, but they’ve only had a couple of sell outs so far.
