Scona District
Engagement has Concluded
District Planning is a multi-year project to build The City Plan’s 15-minute districts—small towns in our big city— where people can meet many of their daily needs locally.
The Scona District is located in the central area of the city and is one of fifteen districts in Edmonton’s District Network as outlined in The City Plan. Nearby districts include the Central, Jasper Place, Whitemud and Southeast Districts (see Figure 6.1: Citywide Context). Scona District includes the following neighbourhoods: Allendale, Argyll, Belgravia, Calgary Trail North, CPR Irvine, Empire Park, Garneau, Grandview Heights, Hazeldean, Lansdowne, Lendrum Place, Malmo Plains, McKernan, Portions of Mill Creek Ravine North, Portions of Mill Creek Ravine South, Parkallen, Pleasantview, Queen Alexandra, Ritchie, Strathcona, Strathcona Junction, University of Alberta, University of Alberta Farm, Whitemud Creek Ravine North and Windsor Park.
Check out the draft District General Policy, the draft Scona District Plan and Area Plans Proposed to be Repealed. You have from August 23 until the end of November to share your input.
