Municipal Development Plan

An integrated approach to land use and mobility

On 2009 September 28, City Council approved a newMunicipal Development Plan (MDP) and Calgary Transportation

Plan (CTP). The new MDP came effective April 1, 2010.Together, these documents provide a long-term strategy for a

more sustainable city through the integration of land use andmobility policies.

The MDP proposes a more compact urban form for Calgary bylocating a portion of new housing and jobs within higher

intensity, mixed-use areas that are well connected to thePrimary Transit Network. The Banff Trail Station area is within

a Major Activity Centre and along the Primary Transit Network(LRT).

Banff Trail Station Area Redevelopment Plan

Community and Stakeholder Engagement

The City of Calgary was been working the community of

Banff Trail and Motel Village property owners since late

2007.Over the Fall and Winter of 2009/2010, Land Use Planning

and Policy, in partnership with several City of Calgary

departments, worked with local commercial property

owners and the Banff Trail Community Association to

review and rework a preliminary draft plan. Based on this

stakeholder dialogue and feedback, a Draft document

was reviewed by the by the public, community residents

and other area stakeholders in May and June 2010.

These comments have been included into the Proposed

ARP. This Proposed ARP is the fi nal recommended plan

by Land Use Planning and Policy and will be presented,as displayed today, to Calgary Planning Commission and

to City Council at a Public Hearing.

Any changes to this Proposed ARP would have to made

by City Council after the Public Hearing.

local residents, commercial property owners and other area

stakeholders produced a Vision and a set of Guiding Principles for

policy creation.

entertained, and meet their daily needs. It will overcome the stigma of

place. Existing residential community character will be preserved,while places with an opportunity to change will enhance the area.

Prioritize modes of transportation

Creating vibrant pedestrian and bicycle friendly streets

Creating great open spaces

Ensure accessibility in the public realm

Incorporate public art

Establish land use precincts

Facilitate a broad mix of transit supportive uses

Ensure appropriate ground level uses and design

Manage parking

Ensure transit supportive density

Include a variety of building types

Integrate with community

Ensure quality building design

Green infrastructure and green

buildings

Create a diverse and inclusive

community

Make it happen
