West Calgary Trans-Canada Corridor: How this Development Affects Us

bulldozerHello friends,

Hope you have had a good summer.

We want to bring to your attention again to some significant developments that will be happening in our area in the next few years. The Calgary Planning Commission will be making the decision to approve 3 proposals for developing new housing, commercial buildings, and offices in the area west of COP. A few members of the board as well as some residents of our community will be going to City Hall on the appropriate day to voice our concerns and comments regarding those developments. This meeting have been postponed a few times, and we will let you know once we have a date from the City.

 

We want to make sure that our community’s views are represented well. Please provide your valuable input by:

1. [By Monday, October 14] Taking this survey to give us your opinion on some of the issues that we have identified as important, as well as other issues that you want to raise. (5-10 minutes)

2. [As Soon As Possible] Taking this official City of Calgary  survey about the West Calgary Trans-Canada Corridor (5-10 minutes)

4. Becoming a member and supporting us in our efforts to represent your voice.

Don’t worry, you don’t have to read all of these to take the surveys (they don’t require detailed knowledge)! Just give us your honest opinion.

Regarding the Crestmont Hall

CrestmontWe get a LOT of inquiries about the Crestmont Hall.  Just to be clear, WE are the Crestmont Community Association and we are a not-for-profit, volunteer run organization made up of community members.  Although we are graciously offered the use of the hall for our meetings and events, we DO NOT manage the hall.

The Crestmont Homeowners’ Association manages the Hall and it’s rental for weddings, fitness classes, etc.  The Crestmont Homeowners’ Association is a not-for-profit registered under the Society’s Act.

Updates from Qualico…

Qualico has provided us with PDF copies of the latest Crestmont Stage 4 Plan and a Summary of Changes made to the plan from October 2011 to March 2013 (as presented at the AGM) and have given us permission to post these links to our website.  Please consider volunteering for our development committee so you can help represent our community on matters such as these.

A Message To Crestmont Residents

Dear Crestmont Resident,

As you may be aware, Qualico is planning to submit a change to the West View Area Structure Plan which defines how future development west of the current limits of Crestmont are conducted.

As representatives of the community, the Crestmont Community Association is frequently called upon by the City of Calgary and our developer, Qualico, to provide input and feedback to the plan.

The board of directors of the Crestmont Community Association feel it is important to represent your views, along with ours, during these discussions.

If you are interested in providing us some feedback that will assist in understanding the perspectives of the community, please click visit our website crestmontcommunity.org, and click on the link for the ASP Survey.  It is a very simple 10 question survey and should not take more than a couple of minutes to complete.

You may also want to bookmark this link where we frequently post news or information relevant to the community.  You can find us on:

If you wish to participate more directly in this process, please send an email to info@crestmontcommunity.org.

Regards,

Al Del Degan
President (2010/2011)
