Committees

HSCA Committees represent the diversity of the Hillhurst Sunnyside Community and advocate on behalf of its residents. The majority (if not all) committees are volunteer run and there are plenty of opportunities and options for residents to get involved. 

Hillhurst Sunnyside Planning cOMMITTEE

The Hillhurst Sunnyside Planning Committee (HSPC) is a committee of the Hillhurst Sunnyside Community Association (HSCA) that reports to the HSCA Board of Directors. The committee is made up of residents from Hillhurst and Sunnyside who have a keen interest in the way our communities redevelop. This is achieved by building positive relationships with various stakeholders, our ward councillor, and City of Calgary administration. Planning Committee meetings take place online on the first Thursday of each month. If you are a resident of Hillhurst Sunnyside and are interested in attending an upcoming meeting, please email hspc@hsca.ca to be added to the contact list.

HERITAGE PRESERVATION COMMITTEE

Focused on the preservation and celebration of architectural, cultural and natural history.

Emergency Planning & Response committee

There is currently one active subcommittee operating within EPARC: the Infrastructure (Technical) Division.

SUNNYSIDE BRIGHTENING COMMITTEE

The Sunnyside Brightening Committee (SBC) is an active group of neighbours seeking to "brighten" Sunnyside via recreational, artistic and environmental improvements.

Originally established to focus on aesthetic aspects of flood mitigation projects, their scope has expanded to include essentially all recreational, artistic and environmental opportunities in Sunnyside. The SBC is always looking for new Sunnyside residents who want to make something happen in the community. To learn more, reach out to hspc@hsca.ca 

mobility committee

A sub-committee of the planning committee, we educate, provide information and advocate for the community on traffic safety, parking, mobility issues. Are you passionate about walking, riding a bike, or using your accessibility device to make your way around Hillhurst and Sunnyside? Do you think our community would serve us better if we had less car dependency and had safer routes for traditional means of local transportation? If so, you may want to join or get involved with the mobility sub-committee. To learn more, reach out to hspc@hsca.ca
