Neighbouring municipalities include Parkland County and the Town of Devon to the west and Leduc County to the south and east. The District’s north boundary is bordered by the Southwest District (see Figure 6.1: Citywide Context). Rabbit Hill District includes the following neighbourhoods: Edmonton South West and Edmonton South Central.

    The Rabbit Hill District Plan contains information and a map on the district context. District context includes: 

    • Physical context which describes where the district is located within the city

    • Historical context which describes past uses of the land and cultural significance

    • Development context which describes the land uses and how the district is built 

    Figure 6.2: District Context - Assets in the district plan currently show the following feature categories: city-wide health and emergency services, community assets, and district energy opportunity areas. 

    The community assets category highlights features like arenas, pools, community halls, city-wide arts and cultural facilities, libraries, schools, post secondary schools, park and ride sites, open spaces, mass transit routes, and current employment areas. 

    When thinking about community assets that the City provides to Edmontonians, and what you access now or would like to access within 15 minutes from your home, are there other features you would like to see included on the map? If yes, post your idea and let us know why this matters to you.
