Municipal Sustainability Plan Survey

It’s the Year 2030: What Does Our Community Look Like?

The Town of Pincher Creek is preparing a Municipal Sustainability Plan, which will provide a vision for a sustainable Pincher Creek for the next 20-plus years, and identify the actions and tools to help get us there.

Creating a Shared Vision: Some Initial Questions

Creating a shared vision for our community depends on your input, and that of citizens of Pincher Creek and the surrounding areas, from all ages and walks of life. As the first step in creating a vision for Pincher Creek we need to know and understand our community values, identify characteristics we want our community to have in the future, and discuss ways we can improve our community.
