Did You Know?
Community leagues have a unique position to forward the wishes of the larger community in discussion with property developers and the City of Edmonton’s planners. The Civics Director addresses community member concerns and is the league’s voice when further advocacy is required. Some common areas include city planning, development, and transportation.
