Wheatland County The project was started by Solar Krafte Utilities Inc., a Vancouver-based company with seven solar farms (as of December 1, 2020) built or proposed across southern Alberta.

On. Nov 27, the solar farm passed the last major reg- ulatory hurdle in the public regulatory review process, when the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC), the pri- mary provincial utilities regulator, granted it a power plant approval and a connection order. While the project is being funded by Capital Power, Solar Krafte will continue to be involved for the life of the system, said company president Mark Burgert. “That’s what we do with everything we’ve built,” he said. “Where the capital comes from and how the ownership is allocated is really irrespective of how we build a reputation and how passionate we are about everything we build.” Construction on the project will start in 2021, with an expected date of completion in 2022, according to information on Capital Power’s website. But for several months already, the procurement of some of the key elements for construction has been underway, said Bur- gert. The project has most of its permitting complete, but still requires some electrical permits. “They come very late in the game,” he said. “But aside from those, everything is permitted here.” The companies will also be working to ensure all Look on Page 6 for conditions set by the town’s development permit are Town of Strathmore met.

  • Here These Bylaws Will Have an Important and Immediate Impact
    August 31, 2020 Delivered by Email Mayor Chalmers and City Councillors City of Chestermere 105 Marina Road Chestermere, AB T1X 1V7 Re: Bylaw 019-20, Amendments for Compact Development in Future Development Areas; Bylaw 020-20, Municipal Development Plan Amendment for Planned Lot Development Dear Mayor Chalmers and City Councillors, On behalf of our members, BILD Calgary Region (BILD) is pleased to offer this letter in support of the Amendments to Bylaws 019-20 and 020-20. We believe that the amendments for future development areas proposed in Bylaw 019-20 will create new opportunities and efficiencies with building product and design. Allowing new compact development standards will enable the City of Chestermere to better compete in the greater Calgary Region with those municipalities that already allow, or are considering allowing, similar land uses. The compact development standards will improve Chestermere’s ability to provide choice and affordability in housing options to existing residents and potentially new home owners. We support the proposed amendment in Bylaw 020-20 which would remove the 35% limit for the amount of Planned Lot development within an Outline Plan area that currently exists within MDP policy 3.4.4.4. This will also allow a greater mix of housing options to be available and attract new home owners and increase the flexibility to plan and build desirable and liveable communities, as well as generally increasing residential tax base for the City of Chestermere. We encourage you to visit bildcr.com for industry updates 212 Meridian Road NE • Calgary, AB • T2A 2N6 p: 403.235.1911 • e: [email protected] • w: bildcr.com BILD remains committed to ongoing collaboration with the City of Chestermere’s Council and Administration, continuing to find opportunities that bring benefit to the City, residents and our members.
