Guiding High River to 2044

The High River Town Plan (draft) includes a long-term vision of what life in High River will look like in 20 years. Daring to be different, the path towards achieving this vision was intentionally kept simple. A guiding principle and nine goals, each with associated objectives and policies were developed. The goals relate to fostering a small-town feel, responsible growth, interconnected community, health and well-being, parks, recreation, and the environment.

“I am confident this plan stands out as being made in High River, for High River,” said Mayor Snodgrass. “The vision, goals and policies reflect the values and aspirations of High River residents. They also include valuable input from our youth, who will be most impacted by the policies incorporated in this plan as it guides our growth to 2044.”

Development of the draft plan was a cooperative effort of the Town Plan Task Force, established in 2022. Task force members included volunteers representing High River residents and Town Council members. They worked closely with Town Administration and engaged the community extensively to envision the "High River of the future."
