Community engagement groups

​What is a Co​​mmunity Liaison Group?

A Community Liaison Group is:

• A forum for community members to come together and learn about EPCOR's water and wastewater service delivery, operational issues, and programs.
• A way for community members to discuss the community's concerns and aspirations.
• On a project-specific basis, a way to provide feedback that will be directly reflected in the alternatives developed.​
  

The group is composed of 10-15 community members, with approximately equal numbers of representatives from community leagues, non-government organizations, and members of the community at large. Members are from diverse backgrounds, circumstances and experiences, and all are passionate about their local community.
