I have received a number of requests to make available this great video of the Crowsnest Pass which I had previously posted on my blog, this was produced for Rocky Mountain Properties. What really impressed me was the job they did promoting all of the really good things about the Crowsnest Pass.

For the other folks that requested to see the Bridgecreek video. I do not have a copy right now but I am trying to locate one. If anybody can help by emailing me a copy I would be glad to post that also.

Community Standards Bylaws Crowsnest Pass
Well Tuesday May 4th, in Council chambers we held a public hearing on the community standards bylaw. Probably somewhere between 50-60 people showed up.
First of all our good Mayor gave those in opposition the opportunity and encouragement to speak (I lost count but at one point I was up to 18 times that he requested those folks to come forth).
The issues that I heard from those opposed to this bylaw (16 people spoke in opposition), were one that people would not be able to do their own mechanical repairs on their property, two that seniors on fixed income would be forced to perform costly renovations and three that I have a god given right to do whatever I want on my own property.
On the positive side were eight people that spoke about the need to clean up the community, that 95% of the residents comply with the standards, and that to attract both residents and businesses we need to make the community as appealing as possible.
Response after the meeting almost everybody I have spoke to, is in favour of the bylaw.
Next step May 11 at our committee meeting the floor is open for any councilor to bring forth amendments. I plan on doing that to address the concerns raised above.

The bright side of the Crowsnest Pass
Want to see what the Crowsnest Pass is all about check out the following video, warning it was made by a reputable local developer and has a very short plug at the end for his company. But I think it was very well done and really exposures the viewer to a lot of great things about our community.
