A Shared Vision
From January 2014 to February 2015, St. Albert residents were asked to help develop a vision to guide the city’s planning and decision-making for the next 50 years. More than 6,000 residents shared over 15,000 ideas, which were used to help create the vision and five complementary Pillars of Sustainability. The resulting document, called Cultivating Our Future, was approved by City Council in June 2016 and provides the foundation for Flourish.
Pillars of Sustainability
Natural Environment
We protect, embrace, and treasure our deeply rooted connections with the natural environment through championing environmental action.
Social
We are a friendly and inclusive community of passionate equals, where everyone feels a sense of belonging. We believe that community starts with the person next door.
Culture
We are proud of our storied history that has fed and nurtured our festive and culturally rich community.
Economic
We prosper and excel through a strong and diverse economy that is supported by forward-thinking commerce, outstanding local businesses and a dynamic downtown core.
Built Environment
We build our community towards the future to sustain balanced development, with a reverent eye to the past, honouring our unique settlement history and distinct identity.
