Lasso Trail description, Rockyview County
We are strongly opposed to the current Conceptual Scheme Proposal and proposal for land use redesignation for this land as it will impact not only our community, our quality of life, our safety, our function of our property, our accessibility to our homes but also to the wildlife and local habitat. There is a need for large reserve areas AND proper wildlife impact assessment studies.
