Rain Barrels
Beginning in April, 2010, rain barrels will be available through: - the Stettler Public Library, - Stettler Child Care, - the Heartland Youth Centre, - and the Stettler Regional Board of Trade and Community Development. They will be sold for $60 as part of the Rain Water Harvesting Program. These barrels are of the same variety that have been sold in the city of Edmonton, Strathcona County, St. Albert, Spruce Grove, Stoney Plain, and Drumheller. They come with a mesh screen on the intake to prevent any critters from getting inside or the breeding of mosquitoes. Benefits of this program include the following: - Save money by cutting down your water bill - Have a backup source of water during times of drought or between rain showers - Source of naturally softened water (better for plants) - Conserve water and keep water levels higher for wildlife - Reduce burden on stormwater and water treatment infrastructure - Support local non-profit organizationsThere will only be 50 rain barrels ordered (at least initially), so please take advantage of this opportunity! Of course the Town would encourage the purchase of rain barrels at any business as well.
