Special Resolution update
June 23, 2025: Thank you to all of the members that took time out of their day to stop in and vote, and everyone that attended the Special Resolution meeting regarding the multisport court on Thursday June 19th.
Out of 1004 properties, we received a combined total of 128 votes cast, 73% in favour of the motion (94 votes in favour, and 34 against). Our bylaws indicate that a Special Resolution requires 75% of the votes received to be in favour, and as such the motion failed.
However, a member is putting up a petition for members who wish to have another vote for the sport court. Pursuant to section 7.5 of the bylaws, upon collection of 10% (101) signatures, we require that the meeting be called no more than 28 days from the stamped date of receipt.
The petition is available at the Crestmont Hall, and office hours this week are:
Monday: 11am to 7pm
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday: 11am to 4pm
We encourage all residents to reach out to us at any time by email at admin@crestmonthall.com or in person at the office, with questions, concerns or constructive comments/suggestions.

June 23, 2025: Construction Update
We received the attached update from Homes by Avi/Whissell Contracting regarding a traffic closure for the east end of west Valley Road, effective June 25th for approximately 8 weeks.
This is to finish the utility installations in that area for Osprey Hills phase 1, and is the same set up as last year where the temporary access from 109th street will be utilized to access the climbing center and Victory Church.
It appears that there will be higher volumes in the southern traffic circle, but there should be minimal (if any) disruption to Crestmont.
Restoration of East Storm Pond Fountain Amenity
The CHOA Board of Directors had approved, and budgeted for, a replacement fountain in the East storm pond in early 2024. We were, unfortunately, unable to put that amenity in place due to City of Calgary water restrictions. This year your Board is pleased to announce that the new fountain has been purchased ($17,728) and is expected to be installed this spring, pending approval of the licenses required by the City of Calgary.
Our General Manager submitted the request early, and received feedback that Crestmont should be one of the first licenses approved this year. This process falls entirely within the City of Calgary’s scope and as we know more, we will share details. Please note, there will be no additional cost burden to members for this amenity, as the funds that had been allocated to the capital purchase were carried over into the 2025 fiscal year. Although the annual maintenance costs ($8000) associated with the fountain were not included in the operating budget for 2025, reserve funds will be allocated towards them, and will be an operating cost for budgeting going forward.
Game Night Update
Game night will resume in September. Please revisit our website for more updates. Enjoy the summer!
