  • LDA20-0434 Rossdale ARP Amendment Summary
    November 2020 Rossdale Area Redevelopment Application: Rationale Nestled in the centre of Edmonton, Rossdale is the oldest area of settlement in the City with unique historical and cultural significance along the North Saskatchewan River Valley. The Rossdale ARP was adopted on June 10, 1986 and has been followed by nine amendments and an office consolidation completed on August 26, 2013. In efforts to transform parts of this neighbourhood into a vibrant community and a special place for all Edmontonians, a long-term city-building initiative called the River Crossing Project took place in 2015. The River Crossing area is historically and culturally significant to Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples and includes the West Rossdale neighbourhood, Fort Edmonton Cemetery and Traditional Burial Grounds, historic Rossdale Power Plant and part of the north bank of the North Saskatchewan River. Edmonton City Council directed City Administration to take actions to bring the vision for River Crossing to life by preparing a heritage interpretive plan and a business plan. The River Crossing Heritage Interpretive Plan was completed in 2017 and guides how heritage and culture will be reflected and communicated throughout the area as it evolves over time. The Rossdale Business Plan was completed in 2019 and lays out an updated framework for how the West Rossdale area can redevelop over the next generation. The plan includes a redevelopment concept, a business case suggesting methods for revenue and cost management, as well as a phased implementation plan. The proposed Plan Amendment will bring the Rossdale ARP into conformity with the River Crossing Heritage Interpretive Plan ​ ​ ​ approved by Council on July 11, 2017 and the River Crossing Business Plan endorsed by Council on September 10, 2019.
