ROCKY VIEW FORWARD
The Residents' Perspective
Rocky View's New Electoral Divisions
For the October 2021 election, Rocky View is shifting from nine to seven electoral divisions. As a result, the divisions have changed. For a few residents in the old Divisions 1 and 2, their division numbers will not change. However, for everyone else, things have really changed.
Six of the seven new electoral divisions radiate out from the border between Rocky View and Calgary. Langdon is the seventh division. The map below should help visualize the new divisions. Scroll down to find descriptions of the key divisional boundaries.
And, if you're not sure which division you live in, check out the County’s interactive map here.
