Boat Storage Area Clean-up

There will be a cleanup of the Boat Storage Area this summer. If you currently have anything stored in this area you are asked to remove your items by August 3, 2026.  The clean-up will be completed in August with items able to be returned prior to the September long weekend.  Details of the clean-up are still being finalized and will be shared closer to August 1.
To understand what is currently being stored in the Boat Storage Area and what residents would like to store there if it were enlarged, can you please email finance@ghostlake.ca by May 15, 2026 the following:
  • What you currently have stored in the Boat Storage Area (if you have pictures, please send)
  • What you would like to store in the Boat Storage Area if there was room (if you have pictures, please send)
 We will use this information as we plan the August clean-up and potential expansion of the area.  
Policy 09-01 is the current policy governing the Boat Storage Area.

Potential Ghost Reservoir Infrastructure Project / Revised Dam

The Government of Alberta’s proposed Ghost Reservoir Infrastructure Project includes the construction of a new dam structure downstream of the existing structure. This will allow for an increased capacity within the reservoir. The design of the new dam would also focus on the considerations for flood and drought management.  The project is in Phase 3 and information on the project can be found HERE.

Council and Administration are working to ensure any impacts to the Village are identified during the consultation being conducted as part of Phase 3.

If you have any questions on the project, please email the Province directly at tec.ghostreservoir@gov.ab.ca.
