Here are some opportunities to offer your input on various civic issues, including traffic-calming in McKernan and Northmount, pop-up dog parks, and Beaumont's proposed innovation park. (Please ensure you live in the affected area before answering surveys.)

  • McKernan Street Lab — The City of Edmonton is exploring a Vision Zero Street Lab in the McKernan neighbourhood, which would install traffic-calming measures. Residents are invited to play an advisory role in the project by taking an online survey or using an interactive mapping tool until July 6.
  • Northmount Street Lab — The City of Edmonton is also exploring a Vision Zero Street Lab in the Northmount neighbourhood. Residents can provide input using an online survey or interactive mapping tool until July 12.
  • Beaumont Innovation Park Area Structure Plan (ASP) - Phase 2 — The City of Beaumont is working on plans for an Innovation Park south of Highway 625, between Highway 814 and Range Road 241, which is proposed to attract investment, create jobs, and drive economic growth in the Edmonton region. The city began work on the ASP in March 2023 and is now engaging the public to share information about the project and gather feedback. Residents of Beaumont or Leduc County, land and business owners, and members of nearby Indigenous communities are invited to complete a survey by July 19.
  • Pop-up Dog Parks Program Evaluation — The City of Edmonton is seeking feedback on its Pop-Up Dog Park Program, which has set up 19 temporary pop-up parks across the city this summer. The Phase 2 survey will help the city decide the future of the program and whether to make the sites permanent. Paper surveys are available at the entrance to each of the sites, and the survey can be completed online until Oct. 1.
