The Village of Empress

is nestled between the Red Deer River and the South Saskatchewan River, at the eastern edge of Alberta. There is a wild feel to this quaint village surrounded by expansive farms and ranches, pronghorns, coyotes and so many different species of birds. The recreation opportunities for adventurers and star-gazers are boundless. Come and see for yourself!

Empress Airport Advisory Committee Vacant
Empress Hospital Advisory Board Kelly Burgess

These community committees got their start with the public Strategic Planning meetings that were held in 2017.  The committees consist of one Village of Empress Councillor and members of the public who are interested.

Their purpose is to think up ideas for how to develop or make better use of these resources, then create proposals (including plans, budgets, and fundraising), then finally present those proposals to the Village of Empress Council.
