We try to accommodate all Elliot Lake residents in recreation, cultural programs and transit services regardless of financial constraints. Our Affordable Access Policy helps deliver programs that are:
- Affordable
- Inclusive
- Responsive to need
The policy provides reduced rates to some of our programs and facilities. You may qualify for the program based on your income level.
Please note that this card is available to residents and their dependents living in Elliot Lake ONLY.
Access Card
If you have a household income below the government issued low-income cut-offs (LICO), you may be eligible for an Affordable Access Card. You can present this card and receive discounted prices when registering for buying transit or recreation passes, and/or purchasing pet tags .
You can fill in our online access card application form or visit City Hall to pick up a copy.
You may either submit the completed form (including a copy of the applicable Notices of Assessment for each applicant 18 years of age or older) online or bring or mail the completed application form (filled in by hand) along with copies of the required Notices of Assessment (originals will not be accepted) in an envelope, addressed to Affordable Access, to City Hall located at 45 Hillside Drive North.
Please note that ALL Canada Revenue Notices of Assessment will be destroyed once your application status has been determined.
If any clarification is required a City of Elliot Lake staff member will contact you within 3 business days.
Your application will be either approved or denied within 5 business days and notification will be sent to you at that time. Depending on the answer in the application form, your Affordable Access Pass will either be mailed to you or you will be notified that it is available for pick up at the front desk of City Hall.
