Let's plan together and shape how our community grows and evolves!
Envision Cochrane 2050 provides opportunities for everyone in Cochrane to have a say in how our community lives, works, plays and thrives. This engagement will lead to the Envision Cochrane 2050 Plan that will guide municipal growth, infrastructure and servicing needs and land use.
We are now in the final phase of the project and are seeking input from Cochrane residents to confirm our key directions.
The draft plan includes policy around topics including:
Growth
Land Use
Community Design
Housing
Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas
Arts and Culture
Community and Protective Services
Mobility
Servicing
Economic Development
This is your chance to review the draft plan and provide feedback before the plan is shared with Council for approval in Fall 2024. Public engagement on the Draft Envision Cochrane 2050 Plan is open to August 18, 2024
