I want to again share the Midfield Heights Project. The plan is approved and next week, some trees on the west and south side of the land will be removed. This is just one of many steps the city is taking to prepare the land for development. The plan will have large scale buildings, apartment complexes. There will be no single detached homes in the plan. With its prime real estate along 16th Ave, and close to the downtown core this will be a project to watch over the years. This will also impact the existing community of Winston Heights with more growth and will of course help all small business that reside in this area.

The Plan
The approved Midfield Heights land use and outline plan provides an opportunity to:
- Create an iconic gateway into Calgary along Highway 1 (16 Avenue)
- Promote inclusive and accessible development
- Illustrate The City’s commitment to sustainability, resilience and addressing climate change
- Develop a transit‐supportive development for the MAX Orange bus rapid transit line
- Create broader community benefits through connections with adjacent communities, open spaces and commercial amenities
