In most cases, suites operate in basements and thus conceal living standards and evade the gaze of the local state. To date, Calgary maintains a high restrictive approach to secondary suites in established suburban areas.

  • Nose Hill Trail and Pathway Plan DRAFT
    CPS2005-29 Attachment 8 Nose Hill Trail and Pathway Plan DRAFT Prepared by: O2 Planning + Design Inc. Prepared for: The City of Calgary Parks April 20, 2005 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Nose Hill Trail and Pathway Plan (NHTPP) has been developed to address a variety of major longstanding park routing, environmental and visitor use issues. This plan has been developed through a comprehensive and extensive public and stakeholder engagement process. Once implemented, the NHTPP will effectively balance the protection of the natural environment while providing compatible, quality leisure opportunities. Fifteen recommendations have been provided in the NHTPP. A summary of the park use and routing, park amenity and parking lot upgrade, and implementation and management recommendations are listed below. Park Use and Routing Recommendations: Modify the configuration of the multi-use and escarpment zones. Establish an upper plateau route that clearly defines the modified multi-use and escarpment zone boundary. Require all users to stay on designated pathways and trails while outside of the multi-use zone. Remove the current Council approved perimeter pathway identified for Nose Hill Park and establish two cross-park pathways to provide connections to existing pathways in adjacent communities. Adopt the proposed designated routing plan that provides for primary, secondary, upper plateau, cross-park, and maintained track routes, as well as the pre-existing barrier free interpretive pathway. Apply specific route surfacing materials (stabilized tread, granular and asphalt with special stone aggregate) and widths to each designated route type to accommodate the variety of park visitor experiences. Close and rehabilitate all informal routes not included in the designated routing system.
