PERMITS

In February, we successfully obtained approval from the City for our development permit, marking a big step forward in the Ritchie Hall Revitalization Committee efforts. We couldn't be more thrilled with this achievement, and we invite you to learn more about the design and site plan

news on funding

Unfortunately, we did not receive the federal grant we had applied for, which would have covered 60% of the project’s cost. Despite our best efforts and meeting all qualifications, we were left disappointed to learn we were not awarded the grant and disheartened by the lack of explanation provided. These funds, along with available City and Provincial grants would have had us starting the construction in January 2025.

We also learned that our project was not selected for funding under the Alberta Capital Plan for Federal Capital Plan, despite aligning with several mandates and important targets for the Government of Alberta and Canada. For the Alberta Capital Plan, the Minister of Arts, Culture and Status of Women wrote Edmonton Federation of Community Leagues to encourage leagues to apply. Well…no league received funding through the Alberta Capital Plan.
