Don’t stow away your winter apparel yet! Balzac Willie saw his shadow; are you ready for six more weeks of winter? Groundhog Day always falls on February 2. In the Northern Hemisphere, this date traditionally marks the midpoint between the winter solstice in December and the spring equinox in March.

Councillor Jeromy Farkas’ Ward 11 Townhall, which focused on crime prevention and safety was very well attended and was very informative. Thank you to everyone who attended.

Great news – LOC2018-0026, which was approved for Assisted Living-Senior in June 2018, is commencing. Several houses have been removed on 7th Street behind the Shopper’s Drug Mart in preparation for the construction of Senior Retirement Complex.

I have copied the following information for your reference from City of Calgary and website https://engage.calgary.ca/heritage.

“The Heritage Communities Local Growth Planning project includes the communities of: Eagle Ridge, Kelvin Grove, Kingsland, Fairview, Haysboro, Acadia, Southwood, Willow Park, Maple Ridge and Chinook Park.

Through the local growth planning process, we’ll work together to create a future vision for how land could be used and redeveloped in the area – building on the vision, goals and policies outlined in Calgary’s Municipal Development Plan and the proposed Guidebook for Great Communities.”

Thank-you to all the volunteers who helped with the Casino.

Help! We need more board members. Do you have spare time? Please help to support your community – for more information phone 403 255-1400.

I’ll leave you with a quote: “Keep going. Everything you need will come to you at the perfect time.” – Unknown
