Construction Coordination
Builders Meeting - Last Chance to Sign-up!
The Municipality of Jasper is hosting more Builders Meetings similar to last year to hear feedback on how the 2025 construction season has gone and to plant the seeds for work that needs to happen before the 2026 construction season starts. The first meeting date is Friday, November 28, 2025 at 9:00 am - 12:00 pm. A second date early in the new year is also being planned.
Only a few spots are left, RSVP by Friday November 21 at noon using the following link: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?i...
Found an Underground Storage Tank?
If you discover a buried fuel tank during your rebuild, stop work in that area and contact the Parks Canada Impact Assessment Team at environnementjasper-jasperenvironmental@pc.gc.ca. The tank must be assessed, safely removed, and soils tested by a Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP) before construction continues. This helps protect your health, your property, and the environment. For more information visit the Municipality of Jasper's Debris Removal webpage (https://www.jasper-alberta.ca/p/debris-removal).
Storing Materials on a Neighbouring Lot?
Due to limited availability of space for storing materials and equipment near construction sites, many have been using neighbouring lots as temporary laydown. If this is you, make sure that you have an agreement in place with the leaseholder. An email has been sent to all leaseholders identifying key points to consider when entering into an agreement of this sort.
ATCO Updates
ATCO Electric continues to re-install shallow utilities in Cabin Creek and around town. For information on which sites have been released from ATCOs use in Cabin Creek, please visit Cabin Creek Utility Rebuild Project for information.
ATCO has published an updated map showing which lots in Cabin Creek West have been 'released' following completion of utility re-installation work. Builders working on active construction zone properties should contact ATCO directly about starting work on those lots.
Provide your Input! Soil and material storage
The Jasper Recovery Coordination Centre (JRCC) is working with Parks Canada and other partners to evaluate soil storage and material needs to support the rebuild process. We understand that builders require access to soil storage and materials both now and in the coming years.

Need Power?
Apply to get your power and natural gas services reconnected. You'll need to submit a 'new connection request' to ATCO Gas and to ATCO Electric here to get that process started: https://www.atco.com/en-ca/businesses/atco-energy-...
Once you've submitted an application, a representative from ATCO will reach out to you to confirm details about overhead or underground connections and tie-in procedures.
You should submit service connection requests ahead of the time that you need power or heat so that ATCO representatives will be able to work with you to finalize the connection plans to avoid delays in your construction process.
Exciting News:
Business Recovery Bulletin
The JRCC is launching a Business Recovery Bulletin to share business-focused recovery updates from the Municipality of Jasper and Parks Canada's joint recovery agency. These short updates will focus on new information, programs and announcements that may affect businesses and their operations.
This bulletin is expected to launch in the coming week. Stay tuned.

Sub-Contractor Registration
Prime Contractors with a business license can register sub-contractors using a new form on the Municipality of Jasper webpage: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?i...
Registering your sub-contractors gets them the same benefits as having a full business license: free entry to the Park through National Park work passes and free parking in residential and paid parking areas (you still have to abide by the parking time rules).
Online Utilities Map
The MoJ has recently set up a new online utilities map that shows the approximate location of water, sewer and stormwater infrastructure in town. This information can be helpful in preparing site plans and knowing where to plan to connect to municipal services. Link: https://www.jasper-alberta.ca/p/utilitymap
