A residential property in Sherwood Park has been more than just an eyesore for neighbours. “I don’t feel safe,” said Adele Delplanque, recalling a recent dog attack that sent a woman to hospital. Four dogs had come out of the house located at 58 Glengarry Crescent and began attacking the woman and her own dog, said Delplanque. “All the renters cared about were the dogs. They didn’t even ask if the woman was OK or if the dog was OK.” The front lawn of the property is covered in bikes, many of them missing a front wheel, and other miscellaneous items. There have also been several cats seen coming and going from the home. Between the hours of midnight and 6 a.m., neighbours have reported seeing transient people coming and going and vans dropping off boxes of unknown goods. “The neighbours are afraid,” said Delplanque’s husband Robert. Residents have made dozens of complaints and police are regularly at the home, but not much has been done as Alberta Health Services (AHS) issues evictions, not police. “The RCMP has been working alongside Strathcona County Enforcement Services and other partner agencies since the fall of 2025 to address the concerns associated with this property and identify appropriate long-term solutions,” said a statement from RCMP Monday. A notice to vacate the property was issued by AHS in September but the residents remain despite several follow-up notices. Mayor Rod Frank says the issue is largely out of his hands and is hoping AHS will take further action. “Just think if it was your own neighbourhood,” Frank told CTV News Edmonton. “We have to act. We have to respond to the public. If you need any help from us, we’re there, but let’s not delay on this one.” With files from CTV News Edmonton’s Noah Rishaug
