The Centre City plan, dealing with the Downtown and Beltline primarily, contains aspects of interest to heritage supporters.
The Proposed plan (i.e. the 'second draft) is downloadable from the url above. It is on the March 22 Calgary Planning Commission agenda. It will go to City Council later in the Spring.
The following is text from the City site:
The Centre City Plan
The Centre City is expected to undergo significant change over the next thirty years in order to accommodate the addition of up to 40,000 new residents and over 60,000 new employees by 2035. Many new services, buildings and public spaces will be required to successfully integrate this dynamic growth.
The Draft Centre City Plan presents a new vision for the Centre City. The Centre City will be a livable, thriving and caring place. Achieving a great Centre City requires that attention is paid to all three of these components as they are interconnected and mutually supportive. Focusing on only one area can lead to neglect and deterioration in other areas, thereby taking away from the success of the whole. Addressing all three areas with equal attention will result in the creation of a great urban place.
The Plan is divided into three main sections: Livable, Thriving and Caring. However, because of the interrelated nature of these three components, there are elements of each within each section. No one section is considered more important than the others.
