Notice to Surrounding Communities: Changes to Torrington Landfill Access

Posted on by utilities@town.trochu.ab.ca

Please be advised that effective January 1, 2025, use of the Torrington Landfill will be restricted to Kneehill County ratepayers and residents only. (You must live or own land in the County, outside of towns and villages.) This decision has been made to help extend the life of the landfill site and ensure it can continue to meet the long-term needs of Kneehill County residents.

 

Kneehill County is currently advertising this change, and we ask that you please share this information with your residents to ensure everyone is aware and can make alternative waste disposal arrangements as needed.

 

For more information, please contact us at 403-443-5541.

 

Thank you for your understanding.

Congratulations Barry !

Mayor Barry Kletke of the Town of Trochu has received Alberta Municipalities Distinguished Service Award.
Born in Trochu in 1964, Barry has dedicated his life to his community. Barry was a key advocate for the Kneehill Regional Partnership, always believing in the collective good. He supported the central Medical Clinic in Three Hills and has been instrumental in recruiting doctors to the region.
Since 2008, Barry has worked tirelessly to bring a new Senior Supportive Living Facility to Trochu, with construction starting this fall. He also played a crucial role in modernizing the K-12 school.
Barry’s vision for economic growth has made Trochu a leader in attracting foreign workers and investors. His efforts have brought numerous achievements, including the “World’s Largest Golf Tee” and being part of the Olympic Torch Run route.
When a fire led to layoffs affecting 20% of the town’s population, Barry created the Emergency Relief Fund to support those in need. Barry’s leadership and commitment have profoundly impacted Trochu and is an inspiration to all.
Congratulations, Barry! #ABmunis

Recycling Tips

Posted on by utilities@town.trochu.ab.ca

Our recycling schedule is every 2nd Friday – watch Facebook & Newsletters for dates.

Use string to tie large bundles of cardboard  – it gets windy here.

Place recycling in clearly marked containers at the curb – must be in designated space or it could get missed.
