Updating the Community Plans for Field, B.C. and Lake Louise, Alberta


Parks Canada is updating the Field Community Plan and the Lake Louise Community Plan.

National park community plans are one of the documents used by Parks Canada, stakeholders, leaseholders and other interested parties to guide the development and management of communities administered by Parks Canada. A community plan provides a long-term vision for a sustainable future that integrates a healthy natural environment with economic and social well-being.

The updated plans will help guide these communities into the future (over the next 10+ years) with renewed community vision statements and other key elements that reflect current trends and changes that have occurred over the last ten years in the communities, park, region and across the country.

This project is scheduled to be complete in 2026.
