Rocky View County is updating the Bragg Creek Area Structure Plan (ASP) to guide thoughtful, long-term growth in the Hamlet and surrounding area. This work builds on the Bragg Creek Hamlet Expansion Strategy and responds to key challenges identified through background studies — such as servicing limitations, high infrastructure costs, environmental sensitivities, and intermunicipal coordination needs.

This project will update the ASP’s framework for the development of the Bragg Creek Hamlet to align with the community’s vision, planning best practices, environmental protection, economic development, tourism opportunities and management, and future sustainability.

To ensure the plan reflects local values and priorities, the County created a Visioning Committee made up of community members. This group explored the community’s opportunities and challenges and identified five guiding themes that now serve as the foundation for the next phase of public engagement:

• Community Identity – Maintaining the local character and charm of Bragg Creek while planning for future growth.
• Inclusive Community – Supporting a diverse range of housing, services, and amenities to meet residents’ needs.
• Regenerative Development – Exploring sustainable infrastructure that balances environmental stewardship with economic and residential expansion.
• Sustainable Visitor Economy – Recognizing Bragg Creek’s appeal to tourists while mitigating potential impacts of overtourism.
• Living with Limits – Respecting the ecological and infrastructural limits of the community to ensure future growth matches the hamlet’s capacity and protects its natural assets.

We are now inviting the wider Bragg Creek community to help confirm and refine these themes. Your input will directly shape the policies in the updated ASP, informing how housing, tourism, environmental protection, and economic development will be managed in the Bragg Creek area for years ahead.

The online survey is now closed. We thank everyone who participated and shared their feedback.
