Envision Cochrane 2050

Thank you for shaping the future

Thank you for sharing your feedback throughout the Envision Cochrane 2050 process. Together we've created a plan that reflects our community's vision for how we live, work, play and thrive.

Through pop-up stations, surveys, conversations and community organization interviews, we gathered your feedback during three rounds of engagement over 18 months. Your input has helped to shape the Draft Envision Cochrane 2050 Plan, providing direction for municipal growth, infrastructure, servicing needs and land use. This draft includes policies on:

  • Growth
  • Land use
  • Community design
  • Housing
  • Parks, recreation and natural areas
  • Arts and culture
  • Community and protective services
  • Mobility
  • Servicing
  • Economic vitality

What's next? Finalizing the plan

On Monday, December 9 Council gave Second Reading to the Plan. They made one amendment to change the word infill to redevelopment. Next, the Plan will be circulated to the Calgary Metropolitan Region Board (CMRB). If the CMRB is comfortable with the policy alignment between their Regional Growth Plan and the Envision Cochrane 2050 Plan, then Council will give Third Reading in March 2025, thereby approving the Plan and allowing it to be used to inform Town strategic decisions.
