Townhome Development at Taza Park on Tsuut'ina Nation Lands
Official title: Aurora at Taza Park Multi-Unit Townhome Development
Homes by Avi wants to build 46 townhome units in 12 buildings at Taza Park on Tsuut'ina Nation reserve lands near Calgary. The land was already developed for the Taza project, so no clearing is needed. Indigenous Services Canada is issuing subleases under the Indian Act.
Why This Matters
This mainly affects Tsuut'ina Nation members and nearby residents. If you live in the area or have an interest in development on reserve lands, this is your chance to weigh in. The project adds housing to an already-developed site.
What Could Change
Indigenous Services Canada would issue subleases under Section 53(1) of the Indian Act, allowing 46 new townhome units to be built. The site would be re-graded for construction.
Key Issues
- Should subleases be issued for this townhome development on Tsuut'ina Nation lands?
- Are there any environmental or community concerns with the site re-grading?
Indigenous Consultation
This consultation requires engagement with Indigenous communities under the Crown's duty to consult.
