Town of Canmore

Council Clips – May 11, 2021

Council voted to postpone 3rd Reading of Bylaw 2021-05 to Tuesday, May 25, and directed Administration to meet with TSMVPL in order to review and evaluate their identified concerns and how best to achieve the stated objectives of Council as approved through amendments to the ASP at 2nd Reading. Administration will report back to Council on that discussion prior to 3rd Reading of the ASP.

The stated objectives of Council are:

  • To achieve phasing that has all commercial development complete prior to the majority of the residential development.
  • To ensure that the Village ASP meets the MDP requirement of being a primary commercial development with a significant commercial tax base.
  • To reduce the Three Sisters Village residential unit and density projections by approximately 1/3 to achieve the primary commercial development concept of the Village.
  • To achieve a minimum of 20% of all residential units being provided as affordable housing units.
