Here are some updates related to new City initiatives and programs.

Aurora Area Structure Plan – Engagement Session

The Aurora Area Structure Plan (ASP) includes all of the lands South of 96 Ave NE, North of Beddington Trail, East of Harvest Hills Blvd, and West of the rail line. The City is in the process of creating a new ASP for these lands.

The engagement process began with public feedback in May, and the last in-person open house is happening November 6.

You can view the background on the Aurora lands and submit written feedback at engage.calgary.ca/aurora-asp.

Calls for Chinook Blast 2025: Creators, Artists, and Artisans

Chinook Blast is right around the corner. Calgary’s winter festival is gearing up and looking for partners. If you’re an artisan and would like to bring your product to market, booth applications are open!

If you’re a visual artist there are funding opportunities between $5,000 and $40,000. There’s also a contest for installations designed to endure winter weather, with prizes up to $45,000.

For more information and to submit your proposal, visit chinookblast.ca.

Nose Creek Park Strategy: Notice of Motion

This month I will be bringing a Notice of Motion to direct Administration to develop a Nose Creek Park Strategy to guide the creation of a regional park.

If you’re not familiar with the area, Nose Creek is a watershed that runs from the northern Rocky View boundary and flows south through Airdrie and Calgary before joining the Bow River. The beautiful grassland is enjoyed by many Ward 3 residents, despite it not currently being a designated park space.

Local residents formed the Nose Creek Preservation Society to advocate for the preservation of the green space. This motion will help advance this work.
