Greetings Ward 4!
How is it already September!? Time flies when we’re having fun! September 5 is Labour Day and a statutory holiday where Post offices, many businesses, and many organizations, as well as schools and other educational establishments are closed, as Labour Day falls at the end of the summer holiday period.
Safely Keeping You Moving: Online Map Shows Calgary’s Traffic Information
Back to school time is here and that means Calgary’s roads will be getting busier. To help citizens as they return to their regular schedules after the summer, a map is available that shows the location of construction projects, road closures, traffic incidents, and traffic cameras within Calgary. The information in the Traffic Information map can help you plan your route and look for alternative routes if needed. It is located at https://maps.calgary.ca/TrafficInformation/. To view more City of Calgary maps, please visit the Map Gallery at https://maps.calgary.ca/.
Your Passion Needs a Seat at the Table
The City of Calgary is recruiting for vacancies on 21 Boards, Commissions, and Committees (BCC’s). BCC members apply their skills, interests, and expertise to guide decisions across a wide range of urban issues – including social well-being, anti-racism, planning and design, community standards, climate, and other areas. If you value public service and would like to take part in the future decisions of our dynamic city, please go to our website: calgary.ca/boards. Recruiting opens at 8:00 am on August 12 and closes at 4:00 pm, September 12.
Provide Your Input on How and When the City Charges Fees
If you ever use City services like transit or recreation, you likely pay a fee when you do. How much you pay to use these and other City services that require a fee is shaped by The City’s User Fee and Subsidy Policy and approved by Council each year. The last time the User Fee Policy was reviewed was 2012. Since a lot has changed over the last 10 years, we are now reviewing the current policy with the aim to have an updated policy in place for 2024.
To make sure the updated policy meets the needs of Calgarians now and in the future, we need your input. Please visit engage.calgary.ca/fees to share your thoughts on how user fees should be determined in our city and to learn more.
