Last week, at their inaugural meeting of Monday, November 2, City of Cranbrook council adopted the Parnaby Road Construction Local Area Service (LAS) establishment bylaw and directed staff to forward Loan Authorization Bylaw (Parnaby Road Construction Local Area Service) No. 4264, 2026 to the Inspector of Municipalities for approval.

The proposed project would reconstruct Parnaby Road and the connecting local road to Corral Boulevard to city standards. The planned work includes rebuilding and widening the road, adding streetlights, drainage, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, gravel shoulders, and a water meter, along with any related property and access work.

A Local Area Service (LAS) is designed to benefit a specific neighbourhood or part of a community rather than the entire city and is also paid for by the residents or owners of the properties who will directly benefit. It is not paid for by the general city taxpayers.

The cost of the LAS to build the road will be paid for by the developers that requested the LAS and will not be paid for by any other residents or properties in and around Shadow Mountain.

We apologize for any misunderstanding or confusion this may have caused. We appreciate your understanding.

City of Cranbrook
