The Town of Blackfalds, Alberta, is holding a regular council meeting on March 10, 2026, at 6:00 PM. The meeting will focus on community safety and how the town plans to pay for essential services throughout the year.

Council members previously approved temporary budgets earlier in 2026. This gave town leaders more time to review financial documents and study how the town is run before making final decisions on the budget.

During the meeting, officials will look at safety priorities and hear input from the policing committee. They will also work on the 2026 plans for health services, the fire department, and town utilities.

As one of the fastest-growing communities in the country, the council is focused on keeping up with the need for infrastructure and emergency services. Residents are welcome to attend the meeting in person or watch the session through a live-stream on the town website.
