As part of the “Red Tape Reduction” initiative, the County is proposing the redesignation of Direct Control District #2 lands In the Highway 2A industrial corridor to an existing land use district in the current Land Use Bylaw, in accordance with the Highway 2A Industrial Area Structure Plan.

The Direct Control District #2 lands were noted as the first priority for the Direct Control redesignations.

June 9, 2021, Council directed administration to proceed with public engagement for the purpose of obtaining feedback from stakeholders on the proposed land use redesignation of the Direct Control District #2 land.

The area subject to this review and redesignation is the Direct Control District #2 lands within the Highway 2A Industrial Corridor.

Foothills County is honoured to participate in the Sheep River Health Trust's annual Avenue of Trees. This marks our 8th entry into the event.

Our tree theme for 2021 is: “Radiance Shines Through the Roads Less Traveled in the Foothills." The Foothills is a balance of Growth & Reflection; Lively, Radiant and Lush. This tree received the Holiday Elegance ribbon for the third year in a row.

Trees are being sold by online auction here.

The County tree is also up for Fan Favourite. Visit the Sheep River Health Trust on social media to "like" our tree, or visit in-person at the Best Western Inn and Suites in Okotoks.

Bidding will close on Dec. 15.

Foothills County continues to annually support the Sheep River Health Trust, by providing financial support to give back into Health & Wellness initiatives throughout the community.

Last year more than $21,000 was raised for the Sheep River Health Trust through Avenue of Trees. All monies raised will stay in Okotoks, Black Diamond, Turner Valley, Longview, Millarville and Priddis areas.
