The Future Of Inglewood
BRZ Report
by Rebecca O’Brien
Thanks to Meg Van R. and her team with the IDI, and LJ
Robertson’s eyes on what is coming down the pipe in Inglewood,
the changes that are underway throughout both the commercial
and residential area are being monitored, and always with the
emphasis on community engagement
The Carstar building site, across 9th Ave from the Arts Block
(Bite, Gravity, Espy, Cucina....) is set for redevelopment,
with Jeremy Sturgess Architecture doing the design. To give a
heads- up on multiple award winning Sturgess Architecture,
think Glacial Skywalk, the Water Building in Ramsay, and the
‘Spiral House’ on the Elbow river (for more information on
their work go to sturgessarchitecture.com). The CarStar site
redesign that Sturgess Architecture has undertaken is exciting
for the BRZ; the commercial area strives to distinguish itself
with a blend of cutting edge contemporary architecture mixed in
with our historically significant buildings. ( The new yoga studio
being built adjacent to The Apothecary captures the spirit of
design and juxtaposition of old and new in Inglewood. ) The
BRZ understands that cities are fluid and dynamic; the last thing
Inglewood needs is mediocre, bland buildings that say nothing
(much of recent development along 17th Ave is an example of
this). The BRZ is confident that the Sturgess architectural team
will deliver a contemporary, quality, dynamic design. However,
the one issue that the BRZ board is struggling with, a crucial
issue in many ways, is the height relaxation that is being sought.
On the surface what may seem a minor issue of a height
relaxation of 2.5 metres is actually a critical discussion for the
future of the neighbourhood.
Board members have articulated the concern that one height
relaxation that veers from the current ARP, opens the floodgate
to others. Preserving a streetscape that is human-scale and
pedestrian-friendly is critical to the unique character of the
neighborhood’s main street.
Conversely, some board members expressed concern that rigid
alignment to the ARP may set up roadblocks for creative and
high-quality development projects within the neighborhood.
Their greatest apprehension being that too many regulations or
too inflexible an adherence to them may turn away developers.
So, on the one hand, the BRZ is concerned about the
repercussions of the height relaxation, and, on the other hand,
in no way wants to discourage the kind of dynamic design that
the CarStar redevelopment represents. It is neither easy nor
straightforward for the BRZ to reconcile these two perspectives.
Calgary’s most historically significant communities. We need to
figure out how to build new in this historic context. We have to
get it right.”
Christmas 2014 In Inglewood:
1. The Inglewood Christmas Kick-off is Thursday evening,
November 20th from 5 pm.
This includes a window dressing competition between
merchants. Last November, businesses in Inglewood rose to
the occasion for the Christmas window dressing competition.
Windows were whimsical and vibrant; 9th Ave looked beautiful for
the Christmas season. CTV will be live in Inglewood to film the
morning of November 20th, and a panel of judges will be doing
the rounds at dawn to decide which window really stands out for
first prize.
2. December Saturdays In Inglewood:
• Gift wrapping at Silver Threads (December 13 and 20th
from 12- 4 pm)
• Carollers
• Wildegrainz gingerbread cookies will be given out by
Inglewood Brownies at one of two warming stations on 9th
Ave
• Free parking Dec 6 and 13th (11:30am -4 pm) at CPA lots
on 12st and 9th Ave and 11st and 9th ave
• Possible tree lot on 10th Ave and 12st (tbc)
Pedestrian Crossing, 9th Ave and 9th St
The BRZ would like to see more than a flashing light installed to
make this very dangerous intersection safer for pedestrians. The
BRZ would like to see improvements to this intersection that
are not in the interest of traffic flow rather in the interests of a
pedestrian corridor. A flashing light and a few other minor changes
will give an illusion of safety, but a pedestrian island will shorten
the walk across the road, as well as force cars to slow down,
thereby making it significantly safer.

That being stated, the BRZ echoes the IDI on the following:
“This building seems to have become a tipping point for
Inglewood because it’s the first of several new buildings on 9th
Ave to have asked for a height relaxation. It’s time to formally
establish the best guidelines for future development of one of

President’s
Report
By Bill Bakelaar
As you read through this
publication, some of you may fall
under the impression that the ICA seems to be going a little over
the top with regards to building heights. Yes, there is some serious
contention over a proposed development along 9th Avenue.
Yet, contrary to our reputation; Inglewood is not anti-development
at all. This reputation is mostly based on the well known
opposition that Inglewood took to the building of a Tim Horton’s
franchise years ago. It wasn’t that Inglewoodians didn’t enjoy
coffee, and it wasn’t even so much about a franchise opening up
in our community. The reasoning behind the opposition was that
a drive-through on 9th Avenue was not welcome, the appearance
and flexibility for future uses of the cinder block building was not
satisfactory, and the developer did not wish to add extra floors for
other potential uses.
Aside from the Tim Horton’s franchise, the only other major
opposition the ICA has taken with developers in recent years
was to the building of an affordable housing project. Some
immediately viewed this as NIMBYism. It was actually quite the
opposite. It was considered by the ICA that the chosen location,
bordering an industrial site at a far corner of the community
would isolate the tenants of the project. We actually wished for the
housing complex to be built in the middle of the community.
What many people often overlook are the many developments the
ICA has endorsed.
Most notably there is the Art Block, where the ICA struggled
alongside the developer to help meet all of the ongoing additional
requests that were being presented by the city.
After years of wrangling and petitioning, reaching out to all
levels of government, the ICA in concert with the developers of
Inglewood House watched the new affordable living complex for
seniors finally get built. This developer has actually approached the
ICA to work with them on a new project.
It was with collaboration that the ICA and Sarina Homes found a
way to convince the City to set aside certain regulations in effort to
build a better project beside “Speed Trap Park” along 9th avenue.
Let us also remember the support that the ICA gave John Kerr
during the absolutely wonderful reconstruction of the National
Hotel and accompanying Livery Stables.
Unfortunately, there are times when we feel that we do have
to make a stand. Whether the struggle be with the developer,
the Calgary Planning Commission, or simply just the fact that
somehow rules have been interpreted as mere suggestions.

Redevelopment Director’s
Report
By L.J. Robertson
We are well and truly into the fall season now – at least we got
some color after “treemagedon”.
We had much to discuss this month, if only two development
permits (DPs). We received a revision to parking of the new
Torode Building at 1410 9 Avenue SE. The change was purely
technical and didn’t involve any exterior changes. Due to the
nature of the application and timing, the RDC expressed support
for it internally which was ratified at the last general meeting.
We were given a heads-up about an application for a Change
of Use Medical Clinic that will be coming up next month. It
is DP2014-4403 at 1336 9 Avenue SE. We didn’t have the
application at the time so just discussed it briefly. It is an
application for a clinic which provides patients with information
and access to medical marijuana, i.e. by prescription. The
product is shipped to the patient. We are still gathering
information but this is a potentially sensitive subject so I wanted
to let the community at large know that it is coming up for
discussion.
We had a neighbor in the 2000 block of Eight Avenue attend to
show us his plans for a proposed home there. He did not have
to attend as he will be applying for a permit under the contextual
rules – in other words, when one builds within a specific
building envelope without relaxations, the application cannot
be refused. You have seen me rail at the too frequent result
of such applications which tend to result in very thoughtless
construction, since there is no community circulation or Planning
Department adjudication. We were pleasantly pleased at the
quality of the proposed home and the fact that the applicant
cares enough about his relationships in Inglewood so that he
wanted the RDC to “vet” it anyway. We wish that this happened
more – often, the committee has very constructive ideas that the
applicant hasn’t even thought of and appreciates hearing about.
A visit to the RDC isn’t all about criticism.
Further to the above, we have received another already approved
contextual application that is a poster child for indifferent
design at 2304 16 Street SE. We will be sending another letter
to Planning to indicate our displeasure regarding being cut out
of the design loop again. I have been told by a Planning Officer
that often applicants will threaten to build the biggest ugliest
house possible under contextual rules if relaxations are not
granted under normal application guidelines. This is a dreadful
illustration of unintended consequences and something that we
strenuously object to.
We are about to head into an extremely important challenge to
our development future from Planning. As you are aware, the
ICA has twice expressed its objections to an application for an
Area Redevelopment Plan (ARP) amendment to allow a new
tower to be built on the CarStar site (Ninth Avenue SE and
Tenth Street SE) to a height of 22.5 m. when the by-law limit
is 20 m. The amendment has been passed unanimously by the
Calgary Planning Commission and is going to City Council. As
has been outlined in this space several times, the substance of
our objection is as follows:
1.
The by-law governing height has been in place for 22
years. It has been relaxed twice but only to buildings on the
south side of the street attached to plans that were specifically
designed not to shade residential neighbors. By-laws are in place
to protect the rights of both property owners and those affected
by the developments thereon. If the guiding principles of
building can be amended to accommodate one developer, there
is no purpose in having zoning at all.
2.
The applicant has said that the relaxation is to
accommodate density. We feel that quite a lot of density
(which we support within reason along Ninth Avenue) can
be accommodated within the existing height. Several new
developments are under construction or in the application stage
that respect neighbors yet will provide three to five floors of
residential in addition to retail.
3.
Our Main Street, Atlantic Avenue (as was) is a unique
heritage treasure that is recognized and revered not just in this
City, but the province and beyond. There are specific guidelines
there to acknowledge that and they need to be respected.
4.
The Inglewood Design Initiative has been working
for over twelve years to generate a position on our future
development wishes for the community. We have been waiting
for almost three years to be heard and have the plans put into,
not just a by-law, but a comprehensive plan. To have our
positions and future options taken away by accommodating
developers on demand is anti-democracy in its worst form. The
repercussions from an efficiency and economic perspective
could also be irreversible.
5.
Generally accepted Urban Design guidelines promote a
relationship between buildings and pedestrians that is human in
scale (generally four storey maximum) to encourage the walkable
urban environment that we want Inglewood to continue.
6.
The ARP maximum is not just set by height; the actual
words are that “Maximum height of buildings on both sides
of 9 Avenue should be established to ensure reasonable sun
exposure to the north sidewalk and rear of the properties along
8 Avenue.”
The developer submitted a sun/shadow study to support his
assertion that his angled 22.5 m. height shades no more than
the 20 m. in the ARP. This study shows that backyards are in
shadow by September 21 at 1:00 and lots are fully shaded by 4:00
in either case. Loss of sun from equinox to equinox does not
comply with the ARP principle.
7.
When one looks to other City planning guidelines
one notes the 16 Avenue North Urban Corridor ARP sets a
maximum height for buildings backing on to residential of 16
m. with 22 m. allowed on alternate corners (Map 2A). It seems
incongruous that residences essentially backing onto the Number
One Highway get more consideration than is being supported by
the amendment proposed.
It is critical that our voices be heard loud and clear by the City
Council. We are asking all of our neighbors who are concerned
about this situation to 1) sign the petition that is circulating (phone
the ICA Hall if you don’t see it), 2) write a letter outlining your
concerns to all of the City Councillors and c) attend the Council
Chambers with us on November 3. An ICA contingent will be
leaving the Alexandra School at 9:00 that morning. Just being seen
at Council will help greatly to convey our resolve – call the Hall for
details. ONWARD.

along with the sustainable and predictable funding sources to
carry out these responsibilities.
Dear Inglewood Neighbours,
September and the first part of October were times of
significant change for your Team Ward 9 and for our municipal
government. Closer to home I welcomed Katie Hope and Eric
Peters to my office, who I introduced to you in last month’s
report. During the beginning of October, the three of us made
the rounds to Ward 9’s community association meetings in
order to meet your community leadership. I am elated with the
enthusiasm and capabilities of my new team and want to assure
you that our mission remains steadfast - the relentless pursuit
of Great Neighbourhoods.
On a broader stage, Alberta history was made on Tuesday,
October 7th. Our Mayor, Naheed Nenshi, Premier Jim
Prentice, Edmonton’s mayor, and Alberta’s Minister of
Municipal Affairs met at Calgary City Hall and signed the
“Framework Agreement for Charters”. This Agreement is the
first step on the century-old dream towards a City Charter for
Calgary and Edmonton. When realized, this will transform
these important cities from “creatures of the province” into
full-fledged governments in their own right.
Establishing a new relationship with the Province is the fifth
component of my five-point Great Neighbourhoods plan. This
Agreement commits the three parties to establishing exactly
this kind of next-generation leadership, with a more efficient
Keeping with the theme of municipal empowerment, on
September 5th I was extremely honoured to be invited to
present at the first annual Alberta Municipal Governance
Symposium in Grande Prairie. At the Symposium close to 300
municipal leaders from across Alberta met to discuss the future
of our Province. In a very balanced way we explored the idea
of amalgamating the hundreds of Alberta municipalities into
significantly fewer and significantly stronger organizations,
in order to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of
government. The event left me inspired and I encourage you to
view the remarks I made at the symposium, which can be found
at: http://albertamgs.ca/
Over the next month, Council will redistribute roles and
responsibilities at our annual Organizational Day (I expect my
role to remain largely unchanged) and debate Calgary’s first ever
four-year business plan and budget. I look forward to reporting
to you on that next month.
We remain at your service at 403-268-5330 and at ward09@

RIO Does Anime and
Superheroes
By Emily Firmston, Club Member
Recently Reality Is Optional kids’ writing club ventured into the
world of superhero speed dating. What, you ask, is superhero speed
dating? It is when you create a character with randomized powers,
costume colours, and goals. We then gave our heroes names and
motives. After that we interviewed each other’s superheroes and made
teams. Our teams went on grand adventures in such places as France
and Great Britain. We don’t know if we’ve made a great difference in
the world or just annoyed the heck out of French people in general,
but our intentions were good (sort of).
In other news a Japanese High School full of goats sprang up
in the RIO classroom, with two of our members speaking in only
Japanese Anime phrases for a good chunk of the meeting. We
invented new sports such as Kawaii Toast Running and Monocube.
Both are amazing and challenging sports, one more deadly than the
other. We also had a pun off, an election for class president (won by
a goat), and created a really badly translated theme song. See all of
these in either October or November’s RIO E-zine.
We had a very chill Free Fall Friday, where we wrote for an hour
in somewhat quiet. It was nice. Pen
and Panel cartooning club, our sister
club, is doing well. They have created
new characters, new comics, and lots
of inside jokes – like Tim and Sad
Volleyball. Go to their website to
see the fun. www.penandpanel.com.
For random movie night we watched
Monty Python and the Holy Grail –
probably one of the best movies ever.
We can now NEE with the best of them and know a shrubbery
when we see one. The movie reminded us of our latest Dungeons
and Dragons club adventure where we battled spiders and got into a
ship wreck.
We are always taking new members so if you wish to give up your
sanity and play with words contact us via the RIO website:

Heritage Committee Update
by Manfred Baum
This month, we are going to talk about another boom period building. The
Carson Block at 1336-9th Ave SE contains the local watering hole and restaurant,
Swan’s of Inglewood. The building was started in 1911 for James and Edward
Carson. It was finished in 1912 but not after some controversy.
A new construction method, reinforced concrete, was specified by architect
David McIlroy. However, before the building was finished, the cement floors
collapsed. The collapse resulted in an inquiry and aggravated a feud between
City Building Inspector Richard Harrison and Alderman A.J. Samis. The origin of
their conflict was related to the construction of the Samis Block on 8th Avenue
and continued over to the committee overseeing the inquiry. The committee was
chaired by Alderman Samis. They investigated the involvement of the Building
Inspector’s department in the collapse. Tempers flared during the proceedings
which resulted in Mr. Harrison launching punches at Alderman Samis. Harrison
immediately left and as the committee was suspending him, he resigned.
There is one final thing I would like to mention. If there is a topic from
Inglewood’s historical past, such as a person or building, you would like to
see in this column, please contact me at [email protected]. I will
try to write about those topics. Please note that I will not necessarily do your
house’s history but if you need help in finding the resources you need, please
contact me. Also, if you have any Inglewood stories or photos, please contact
me as well.
Free Swim at the Inglewood Pool

Free Swim Times: 1 pm – 2:30 pm; 3 pm – 4:30 pm
A depressed economy after World War I saw many properties revert back to the
City due to non-payment of taxes. The Carson Block was no exception. It was
City property from 1920 until 1939. The Inglewood branch of the Calgary Public
Library was located in the Carson Block from 1946 until 1953 when commercial
uses returned to the block.
Architecturally, the classically inspired tripartite façade has projecting end bays,
giving the wall surface some variety and balance. The purple blocks at the main
entrance were used to let in natural light for the basement. This is no longer the
case. Today it mainly exists for decorative and historical reasons.
The façade was restored by the Inglewood Business Revitalization Zone and the
Alberta Main Street Programme in the mid 1990s.

Community Life
ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES AND WIN!
Wondering what you could do for the Roll Up Your Sleeves and
Win contest? Here are some examples of the kinds of things people
do to make their community feel more comfortable and “browsable”
for pedestrians; to make the public realm more animated and social;
attract diversity of all kinds;
preserve and promote our rich
heritage; go green etc.
Steacy Collyer has a “Little Free
Library” in front of her house that
has become a little free gathering
place. (And Bridgeland has Tiny
Galleries!)
Mieka West dreamed of a
community cob oven, raised the
money, met with the City, found
some volunteers, and voila, we
have a handsome handmade cob
oven in the ICA yard.
FIND IT (Pop-ups in Inglewood & Ramsay), a small group of locals
who aspire to be community animators, produced the New Street
Spoken Word Safari, Chandelierville the Inglewood Night Markets,
and other pop-ups.
In Brentwood, Cheri Macauley had a hugely successful idea for a
once-a-week walk-around-the-block hour to get neighbours out
meeting each other. Cost nothing, and it worked!
Someone suggested an “enticing entryway” challenge for 9th
Avenue businesses. Why not for residential blocks too?
Brian Imeson, President of the BRZ Board, mused about
Inglewood becoming a music
mecca like Austin TX. Why
not? It’s already well on its way!
What would it take to make this
happen?
SoBow developers bemoan the
lack of a sidewalk to serve all the
residences in that NE section of
Inglewood, and they’re working
with The City to get one. Three
cheers!
Someone hung hand-painted
swings in several trees in the
park next to the river a few years ago. A divine intervention! They
disappeared as mysteriously as they arrived.
What about using election lawn signs as “easels” for a children’s art
show on lawns throughout the ‘hood? A self-guided historical tour
of Inglewood? Fun wayfinding signage promoting things to do
and sights to see? A basket of flashing crossing-guard hand signs
at risky intersections like 9th & 9th to help people cross the street
safely? A weeding crew? A cycling repair station like the ones on
Canmore’s main street? An edible urban forest?
Review the IDI themes – you’ll find more detail at icacalgary.
com – then start brainstorming. You can propose big ideas that
might take months and dozens of people, or little ideas that just
take a few hours. If you have a big idea you need help with, pitch
it to us by December 1st, and if you win, we’ll not only help figure
out how to make it happen – you’ll win a prize package from
Inglewood merchants and a fun trophy too. Prize category 2: if
you complete a project by December 1st, send us pictures and a
description. If you did something cool before the contest even
started, tell us about that too – that’ll be prize category 3. All
attendees at the December 9th ICA meeting at the hall (7pm) will
vote for the winners.
Imagine the impact on Inglewood – physically and socially – if
we all roll up our sleeves and work together to bring some of our
neighbours’ great ideas to life!
Send your entry to [email protected] by midnight December 1st,
or email Meg at the same address if you need help. We’ll post
ideas on the ICA website so you can review them before the vote.
This is a joint project of the Inglewood Community Association
and the Inglewood BRZ.

warranted it for a flashing-light pedestrian crossing. We’re
still exploring other pedestrian-oriented improvements such
as traffic pattern modification, lighting that actually lights
the pedestrians, less dangerous corner cuts for wheelchair and
stroller use etc, and will keep you posted.
THE FUTURE of 9th AVENUE: MAIN STREETS
WORKSHOP NOV. 19th
Do you remember the Inglewood walkabout with Planning chief
Rollin Stanley last March? (Go to www.icacalgary.com to read
a synopsis.) He was ready to launch a new Local Area Planning
initiative focussing on the future of Calgary’s main streets and
promised that Inglewood would be an early participant in the
process.
It’s coming to Inglewood Wednesday November 19th. Mark it
on your calendar! It’s REALLY IMPORTANT that you take
an hour or so to participate. Let’s see if we can get hundreds of
stakeholders out.
The City of Calgary wants to hear from you!
Join us for the 9th Avenue SE MAIN STREETS workshop.
Date: Wednesday November 19th
Time: 6:30-9:00
Location: Alexandra Centre, 922-9 Ave SE (in the gym)
Thriving main streets are ideal places to live, work and play.
The City’s Planning & Development team wants to explore
how growth could happen in a meaningful way for residents,
businesses and developers.
At the 9th Avenue Main Streets workshop on November 19th,
you’ll participate in a mapping exercise to identify the issues
opportunities and outcomes for your main street and the
surrounding neighbourhood. The input shared will be used
to help understand local perspectives on the future success of
Calgary’s main streets.
Visit calgary.ca/mainstreets to learn more about this new Local
Area Planning process and sign up for email updates.
9th AVENUE PLANNING cont’d
The Main Street workshop is the process promised by Calgary’s
top city planner, Rollin Stanley, on his Inglewood walkabout
last March. Read a summary of the walkabout conversation on
icacalgary.com. A 9th Avenue Steering Committee, reporting
to the IDI and made up of representatives from the ICA,
BRZ, business owners and developers, has been struck to guide
us in all the upcoming planning processes, from The City’s
Main Streets workshop to our Councillor’s highly-anticipated
TOD planning in the spring and the heritage studies currently
underway to qualify us for Provincial Mainstreet funded
opportunities, also in the spring.
GOOD NEWS re 9th & 9th
The City has heard our concerns about the dangerous pedestrian
crossing at 9th Ave and 9th St near the Alexandra, and has

TRAFFIC, PARKING & INFRASTRUCTURE
Inglewood is growing, but its footprint isn’t. Given that
planning is underway for two new bridges, increased density on
9th Avenue, 8th Avenue laneway upgrades, an expanded transit
corridor and more, it is imperative that we understand the
capacity of our infrastructure and what demands this growth
will make on it. How much density can Inglewood handle?
How much commuter traffic and transit? How much and what
kind of parking will be needed? Will sidewalks be built to new
residential areas like SoBow? The Board is making an urgent
request for support from The City in preparing a long term
traffic, parking and infrastructure plan for Inglewood, starting
with a current .
COB OVEN
Yes, we have a lovely new hand built cob oven in the ICA
yard, but it needs a protective structure over and around it.
Chris Brett has done the drawings, Star Building Materials is
donating the materials, and Ryan Murphy Construction (with
volunteers) will build it. Soon I hope! Then we’ll let you know
how we can all start using it. Thanks again to Mieka West for
the idea, the grant-writing, and organizing the build. This will
be a fabulous gathering place for Inglewoodians year round.

......... And there you have
it folks, the Mulligan Way!
Garden Path Society
By Vineetha Jaydeep
Gratuitous and excellent food at the Harvest celebration,
drool worthy door prizes at the AGM, an exquisite board
room to ponder the trials and triumphs of our path.... All
this and more, we owe in no small measure to an exemplary
volunteer in our midst. Jo Mulligan, we notice, we care and
to acknowledge all that you have done Jo, the Inglewood
Community Garden (ICG) is excited, nay honoured t o
proclaim a path that you have tread innumerable times –
THE MULLIGAN WAY!!
For those of
you new to the
community, the
Mulligan Way bears
scrutiny. Few in
the community can
miss the ubiquitous
Jo. Jo, with her
wispy white hair
and dazzling smile,
made Inglewood
her home about
fifteen odd years ago
and immediately
went about making
herself indispensible
to the community.
Jo’s dalliance with
gardens started way back in rural Minnesota, and upon her
return to Alberta soils, continued her love affair with gardens
by becoming an active member of what was then known
as the Victoria Community Garden. Jo’s leadership and
coordination skills were soon called to test, when she and her
fellow gardeners were given notice to vacate the premises of the
Victoria Community Garden. These hardy pioneers literally
picked up plot and plough, shed and dirt and moved it to the
current location – the actual tail end of Blackfoot trail. Around
this vestige of a discarded trail, with the help of Jo and her
friends, blossomed a gardening community. This garden has
proved itself vital to Inglewood, offering the simple pleasures
of gardening, copious amounts of produce to local charities
and being a favorite gathering spot for neighbors to reach out
and connect with one another.
Jo’s ability to galvanize people and resources has served us
all well during her numerous years on the IGA board. Jo does
23
not simply serve - she lives the grow, gather, give mantra of
the garden to the fullest. Jo’s remarkable ability to cajole and
connect, coerce and charm for the good of the community will
remain the essence of her genius, the quintessential Mulligan
Way and for that we are grateful.
Thank you Jo for your decade of dedication to the Garden.
Here’s wishing you many more years of service to the
community and remember folks, when those piercing blue eyes
come calling, you don’t say NO.
Jo Mulligan stands beside the sign Mulligan Way – A
recognition by the Inglewood Community Garden for Jo’s
stellar service to the Garden.
And as the summer spirals to a close, our wind down
activities have begun in earnest. Chief among them is our
process to welcome our slate of gardeners for next year. With
a view to provide maximum benefits to our gardeners and to
recognise and reward all the sincere work that goes to support
the garden, our committee has worked hard at refreshing and
clarifying the garden mandate as well as streamlined the plot
registration process. Other yeoman service for 2014 includes
the plot assessment and replacement project with a priority
on rebuilding the accessible plots. Please visit our website at
http://www.calgarygardenpath.ca/ for more information on all
that we do and stand for.
