  • Provide Information on Department
    Written Responses from the Ministry of Environment and Parks Standing Committee on Public Accounts (Oct. 22, 2019) Topic: Provide information on department estimates on what Alberta’s emissions would have been without climate leadership action that had been implemented in the past four years? (Reference Transcript PA-83, Mr. Schmidt) • This information is available in the Climate Leadership Plan 2017-18 Progress Report available on the Open Data Portal at https://open.alberta.ca/publications/climate- leadership-plan-progress-report-2017-18 • Specifically, this information can be located in the “Ultimate Outcomes: Reduced GHG Emissions section” on page 17 of the report, excerpted below: o The Climate Leadership Plan (CLP) reference case (Table 1) represents current expectations for future GHG emissions based on 2018 federal and CLP climate policies, and on economic growth as projected in 2018. Emissions are forecast to decrease through 2018, then remain at about the same level even with increasing population, economic growth and oil sands production. Table 1 include Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC)’s 2015 historical forecast (before the CLP) that is referenced in the Climate Change Advisory Panel’s Report to Government. The historical forecast is adjusted for ECCC data updates in 2018. Differences between the historical forecast and the CLP reference case include CLP’s projected GHG reductions, differences in economic growth and methodologies used to project emissions. The CLP reference case with potential reductions from innovation

  • Calgary Parks & Pathway Bylaw Review
    Calgary Parks & Pathway Bylaw Review Stakeholder Report Back: What we Heard May 4, 2018 Project overview A parks bylaw is a set of rules to regulate the actions and behaviours of park users. These rules are intended to protect park assets, promote safety and provide a safe and enjoyable experience for park users. The Parks and Pathway Bylaw was last reviewed in 2003. Since then the way we use parks has evolved. For example, in recent years goats have been introduced to our parks to help manage weeds, Segways have been seen on pathways and new technologies, such as drones, have become more commonplace. Engagement overview Engagement sought to understand what is important to you in terms of your park usage as part of this Bylaw review to better assess your usage and as a result, our next steps. Engagement is one area that will help us as we review the Parks and Pathway Bylaw. In addition to your input, we are looking into 3-1-1 calls, other reports and best practices from other cities. In alignment with City Council’s Engage Policy, all engagement efforts, including this project are defined as: Purposeful dialogue between The City and citizens and stakeholders to gather meaningful information to influence decision making. As a result, all engagement follows the following principles: Citizen-centric: focusing on hearing the needs and voices of both directly impacted and indirectly impacted citizens Accountable: upholding the commitments that The City makes to its citizens and stakeholders by demonstrating that the results and outcomes of the engagement processes are consistent with the approved plans for engagement Inclusive: making best efforts to reach, involve, and hear from those who are impacted directly or indirectly Committed: allocating sufficient time and resources for effective engagement of citizens and stakeholders Responsive: acknowledging citizen and stakeholder concerns Transparent: providing clear and complete information around decision processes, procedures and constraints.

  • Birding Lawrey Gards & Douglas Fir Trail
    Lawrey Gardens Natural Area and The Douglas Fir Trail by Ross Dickson and Massey Jones and City of Calgary – revised Sep/2012 The mountain-like vegetation of the Douglas Fir Trail and riparian woodland of Lawrey Gardens at the eastern end of Edworthy Park help to concentrate a locally unique mixture of bird species. Stretching along the south side of the Bow River in northwest Calgary the area contains a steep north-facing escarpment, grasslands, floodplain and ravines just minutes from downtown. From the north, the Douglas Fir Trail can be accessed by: parking at the Harry Boothman pedestrian bridge, accessed from the intersection of Bowness Road and Shaganappi Trail. Follow the footpath across the bridge and the railway, and then turn left (east) towards the conifers. Visitors from the southwest can find parking areas by leaving Bow Trail at 45 St. SW and turning west at Spruce Drive, which then enters Edworthy Park. For those who wish to visit Lawrey Gardens from the east side, parking is also available at the Pumphouse Theatre, at the west end of 9 Ave. SW. An alternative parking area, closer to Lawrey Gardens, can be reached by following 20 Ave. west, under the Crowchild Trail bridge, to its very end, then turning right along the lane behind the first row of commercial buildings and proceeding slowly, on a rough track that can be muddy, to a parking area on the south side of the railway tracks. The 1.5 km Douglas Fir Trail is an occasionally steep pathway along the escarpment. The area contains one of the most easterly stands of Douglas Fir in Alberta; some of the trees are more than 400 years old.
