At the end of 2020, Mayor Chalmers issued a video reflecting on 2020.
“This year certainly did not go as we expected, yet I am so thankful and proud of all that we have accomplished in the past 12 months. That applies to both our pandemic response and to our regular operations,” said Chalmers. “Even though we were apart, and our buildings were closed to visitors, we were hard at work to make Chestermere a better place for you.”
