Councillor: Ed Gibbons (since 2001)

Key Issues:

Growth is an issue in this Ward. There are 285 lots coming on sale this fall with many more expected in the spring. This is a Ward that is about to boom. Part of that is because of the expansion of the Anthony Henday. The councillor elected in this Ward will be responsible for making sure the growth is responsible and done correctly.
