Spring is officially here! I’m excited to be in the ward for all of the outdoor events that the warmer weather brings. Here are some topics and questions we’ve received from residents this past month. For more information or to contact my office directly, visit jasminemian.com.

What’s Going on With Backyard Chickens?

Last year, the City of Calgary piloted an Urban Hens project with great success and has now officially launched an Urban Hen licensing program. If you’re interested in hen-keeping, visit calgary.ca/pets to learn more or apply. P.S. Roosters are not permitted under the bylaw, so there will be no early morning “cock-a-doodle-doos” coming from your neighbours.

What is Neighbour Day and What is There to Do?

Neighbour Day began in June 2014 to celebrate the incredible outpouring of support and generosity of neighbours following the 2013 floods. This year marks the 10th annual Neighbour Day on June 17. Local community associations and groups will likely be hosting markets, recreation in green spaces, BBQs, and even block parties. If you’d like to participate or even throw one yourself, visit calgay.ca/NeighbourDay and check out your neighbourhood’s community association for more details. I’ll be making the rounds and would love to see new faces.

Spring Cleaning Means Community Cleanups

If you want to save yourself a trip to the landfill, the City is supporting community cleanups from April to fall by partnering with local community associations. You can drop off at any community clean up location, free of charge. For a full list of eligible materials and cleanup locations, check out calgary.ca/cleanup.
