Okotoks likely to remain a town despite city population

Nice try Tanya. Saying one thing and doing another. Your vision for a "small town" went out the window the minute you ignored proper planning and thoughtfulness and ignorantly pushed through your vision. Unfortunately not many folks turned out to vote, but with 40% of the vote I guess entitlement goes with it.
Just another step to modernize the downtown. It's been the plan all along for town and council.

Okotoks needs to pumps the brakes. They're too short-sighted in the pursuit to build okotoks. Stop being arrogantly ignorant
Typical whack-a-mole decision making from Thorne and company. Let's build more and more and more housing and figure out the infrastructure to support. Traffic is already getting bogged down on the north end of Northridge because of the new traffic lights. Sorry Lang, the door is thrown open by Thorne's unapologetic approach and she's probably already got 100 more traffic lights to go in.
"Strategic planning"...."managing growth"..."opportunity for feedback"... c'mon Tanya you're throwing so many useless buzzwords around it rivals the number of traffic lights now on Northridge. It scares me to think what "strategic planning" will look like after the mess that's been created after last 4 years. Packed roads, lack of residential parking, stressed services...genie is out of the bottle and your chance to manage growth is gone. If you want feedback...leave and let someone else try to clean up your mess.
Urghhh...Deja vu?? 5 months for work that should take 3 months...probably won't get it done and will have to be back next year and take a another 5 months to finish. Bravo.
Well this story has taken an interesting turn. Seems like the town is not playing nice... anyone surprised by this?? When I stated it's the town's plan to modernize the downtown, I wasn't in favor... quite the opposite, I'm against it. I was just simply stating they haven't hidden their intentions. They're just simply bullying their way through.
