WARD 11

Fall is in full swing! As you’ve noticed there are some exciting developments
in community spaces around the ward. Some of the
highlights include a rain garden in Oakridge, skate-parks in Chinook
Park – Kelvin Grove – Eagle Ridge and in Southwood, and
little libraries in Kingsland. For other community happenings, like
a family Halloween event, check in with your Community Association.
After trick-or-treating, be sure to compost your carved pumpkins
as the City of Calgary’s Leaf and Pumpkin Composting
Program is underway. You can bring your bagged leaves and
pumpkins to a depot near you until November 8th. Depots in
Ward 11 include:
• Braeside Athletic Park – 256 Brookpark Drive SW
• Haysboro Community Centre – 1204, 89th Ave SW
• Marda Loop Communities Association – 3130, 16th Street SW
• North Glenmore Park – 6615, 37th Street SW
• South Glenmore Park – Access off 90th Ave and 24th Street SW
• Stanley Park – 330, 42nd Ave SW
Composting your leaves and pumpkins keeps them out of the
landfill, reduces harmful greenhouse gas emissions and helps
turn the leaves and pumpkins into useful compost. Use paper
yard waste bags to really make a difference, as they can be
composted with the rest of the material! Please note, no sod
or rocks are being accepted at these depots. More information
can be found on calgary.ca/leaf.
Here’s another opportunity to make a difference, each fall the
Assessment Review Board, Subdivision and Development Appeal
Board and Licence and Community Standards Appeal
Board look to Calgarians to volunteer and share their expertise.
The Boards hear appeals and formal complaints from the public
on a number of different issues, including decisions made by
The City of Calgary subdivision and development authorities,
the assessed values of property and business as determined
The City of Calgary, and appeals of decisions made by The
City of Calgary Administration. Learn more about how you can
serve on the Boards at calgary.ca/tribunals.

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Halloween to you and your
family!
