What exists, what is planned and what could change

We separate an operating facility from funded construction, a developer announcement and a long-range plan. A sales map shows intended land uses; it does not guarantee a builder, tenant, school, road, opening date or uninterrupted view. Written information for the exact phase and lot takes priority over this profile.

Announced / planned

Southwinds within the Chinook Winds plan

City growth reporting identifies Southwinds as an actively developing community in the Chinook Winds planning area. The broader plan includes future recreation land, but an area plan does not establish the timing of facilities beside a particular phase.

Buyer check: Request the neighbourhood plan, current construction boundary and the permanent access plan for the selected phase.
