No parking looks like for density, and starting over 400k, not affordable for life time kids in town starting out there work life at entrance wages.Worse than west side development, traffic, parking, what ever, as long as tax dollars come in, all good. No consideration for adjoining properties.

Also, nice half poorly completed road - Bigrock Trail - hard to believe it was shut down for that time frame with end product, and only to find out restrictions again because plumbing not completed. Very very bad decisions made on this one

Feel free to come out and pick any age cattle for a negociated fee, will help load in Tesla, saves us shipping costs to Brooks or High River.

If you need to put food on the table to compensate taxes and cost of inflation, and was in that situation, your opinion may change, maybe, maybe not ...

Agree, poor planning on this one
Tax payer dollars, fireworks. Sure that wasn't cheap. Made everyone happy, justifies the 4+%, increase fror property tax increase next year.

Unless there is some 250k or less housing in there, our children (without help) will never afford to start out / live in this city of Okotoks.

After you do some research, communicate with the elk and deer community, I'll be happy to listen. If you read the article, and realize there was some thought put into decision, with expert support, then you can decide from there, but you already have.

Guessing money was spent else where on pickle ball and twice the budget on outdoor hockey rink plus new skate board park. Great spending priorities.

And no questions on library ...
No surprise with Tristar Communities (Tillotson).

Try phoning Telus, Rogers or any other major company to see if you get an immediate response from someone in authority everytime you want to complain about something. No recall action when Notley NDP retroactively raised taxes or Liberals flooded country with imports overwhelming resources (including schools and hospitals), imprisoned travellers, etc during covid.The productive way of political change, research your candidates, regardless of party, and support them to get elected.If there is no other clear replacement, recall is useless.
I remember after being built, that the maintenance budget was under estimated significantly " forgot phones, etc.". Construction during covid and individuals against location harrassed on six foot seperation.
Unaffordble for our children to stay in this "town"There is one house in Darcy, under 1000 sq ft, perfect. We need our kids to have starter properties like that, not condos or overpriced town houses with HOA fees equal to morgage payments ... Taxes and realotors killing the dream for kids ...
