LETTER: How can the ministry think that a 32-year-old environmental study is valid in any situation?

LETTER: This is an open letter to the federal and provincial ministers of housing.

“Future changes to density will not have the same impact if parking amendments aren’t altered,” said Dave Michaels, manager of planning services for the Town of Banff.

LETTER: Shock waves and phantom roadblocks are resultant phenomena from increased volume. Under panic, this would be much worse.

“While all the funds under HAF have been committed, discussions are still ongoing to notify unsuccessful applicants, with one being Canmore."

“We just don’t want to be invaded … there’s some large developments coming up and we have concerns around that and hope that we can preserve the sanctity and serenity and the natural beauty of our community.”

EDITORIAL: The Town of Canmore was put on full notice in recent weeks by two of the highest profile portfolios in the federal and provincial governments.

“It doesn’t cost the province anything and it doesn’t jeopardize the taxpayers of the municipality because of the security. It allows these projects to move forward by getting traditional financing. It’s a win all around.”

LETTER: As a born and raised former resident of Banff, I believe Liricon’s railway lands proposal is entirely on the wrong side of the tracks, and that the company’s cynical appropriation of language belonging to the Stoney Nakoda First Nation should be removed from this proposal.

Canmore council approved an amendment to its off-site levy bylaw, despite Bow Valley Builders and Developers Association (BOWDA) asking for a postponement to work out differences that could lead to an appeal made with the Land and Property Rights Tribunal (LPRT).
