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.

Located in the northwest area of the city, the Northwest District is one of fifteen districts in Edmonton’s District Network as outlined in The City Plan. Sturgeon County and the City of St. Albert neighbour the district north and northwest, respectively, and adjacent districts include the Northeast, Jasper Place, Central and 118 Avenue (see Figure 6.1: Citywide Context). Exempting the Anthony Henday, the Northwest District includes the following neighbourhoods: Albany, Athlone, Baturyn, Baranow, Beaumaris, Belle Rive, Caernarvon, Calder, Canossa, Carlisle, Carlton, Chambery, Cumberland, Dunluce, Eaux Claires, Elsinore, Evansdale, Glengarry, Goodridge, Corners, Griesbach, Hagmann Estate Industrial, Hudson, Kensington, Killarney, Klarvatten, Lago Lindo, Lauderdale, Lorelei, McArthur Industrial, Mistatim Industrial, Northmount, Oxford, Pembina, Rampart Industrial, Rapperswill, Rosslyn and Wellington.

Check out the draft District General Policy, the draft Northwest District Plan and Area Plans Proposed to be Repealed. You have from August 23 until the end of November to share your input.
