Consultation has concluded

The Augustana neighbourhood is a mature community located in the centre of the city between the downtown core and the University of Alberta Augustana Campus. Due to the community’s location and growing redevelopment interest, the development of an Area Redevelopment Plan (ARP) was undertaken in 2011. The goal of the Augustana Neighbourhood Area Redevelopment Plan (ARP), approved by Council in 2012, was to guide future long-term decisions on land use, development, and public improvements. The ARP vision aimed to respect and enhance the historical characteristics of the area, while allowing for appropriate infill redevelopment to take place in a sensitive manner.

The purpose of the Augustana Neighbourhood Area Redevelopment Plan approved by Council in 2012 was to:

  • Establish a long-term vision for the community;
  • Develop a policy framework to guide future decisions; and
  • Create an implementation plan for the next 25 years.

This Plan update seeks to address new trends, validate the policies and recommendations in the Plan, align the ARP with municipal statutory documents, and incorporate community and stakeholder input. The goal of this update is to:

  • Achieve a balanced approach for context-sensitive development;
  • Respect the existing historic character of the community while allowing new opportunities for infill development; and
  • Provide a detailed strategy to support the goals and vision of the Plan over the next 25 years.
