Banff Trail is a unique established community in Calgary's northwest, which contains a mix of residential, retail, and hotel uses within the "Motel Village" area. Increasing development pressure on Motel Village lands has spurred the need for a more comprehensive plan to guide redevelopment, while remaining sensitive to the interface between the nearby established residential area.
The recently approved Banff Trail Station Area Redevelopment Plan provides innovative policy for mobility networks, public realm, land use and density, built form and site design.
Banff Trail Station ARP approved by City Council October 3, 2011
A Public Hearing at Council in October of 2011 approved by Bylaw 16P2011 the
Banff Trail Station Area Redevelopment Plan. This approval also included amending the 1986 Banff Trail Area Redevelopment Plan.
What's next/What's new?
Council approval also directed Land Use Planning & Policy to engage the residents, property owners and area stakeholders about the potential to increase the range of housing options and built form alternatives along Capitol Hill Crescent N.W.
A public consultation process will be initiated in 2012 to explore options for new land use opportunities along Capitol Hill Crescent.
