Ward 4 Calgary City Councillor-type guy. Blue Jays fan.
Over the next 24 hours the City of Calgary will continue the work towards draining the Bearspaw Feeder Main so that excavation work can be undertaken to remove the section that broke on Dec. 30. That section will be taken for investigation, but there is no definitive timeline.

Calgary City Council is unified in providing direction and receiving updates about the Bearspaw Feeder Main break. Council received a briefing at the Emergency Operations Centre this morning, where we learnt about the steps being taken over the next 24 hours by City staff.

Alberta Health Services has declared a Boil Water Advisory for portions of Parkdale, Montgomery and Point McKay communities, in Ward 7.

All Calgarians should conserve water. Stay tuned for more updates.

Tonight I and other council members became aware via social media and media reporting that a water main break had occurred in northwest Calgary not far from where the Bearspaw Feeder Main break occurred last year. Currently we await more information and the next steps taken to address this issue.

Hey Neighbours!

I want to wish you all a very merry Christmas and happy holidays. I hope that it is a wonderful break for you that is shared with community, family, and friends.

Partnerships have become something that differentiates this council. I was happy to attend the @BILDCR holiday party with my council colleagues Kim Tyers and Mike Jamieson in that sprit.

Finding longterm sensible solutions to put neighbours into Ward 4 homes begins with these conversations.

I was pleased to attend Calgary Police Service recruit class 265 this afternoon. These men, women, and even new canine officers all chose public service to make Calgarians safer, and I applaud them for that choice.

I am shocked by today’s police-involved shooting on the Dalhousie LRT footbridge. Grateful no officers or public were hurt and the individual survived. ASIRT is investigating. Thank you to Calgary Police and Peace Officers for keeping Calgarians safe.

I was happy to join Mayor Jeromy Farkas last night in the decades long tradition of lighting the menorah at Calgary City Hall.

The number one thing I heard at the doors during the campaign was repeal citywide rezoning and today I supported doing that with my vote.

The hard work to build better will come in March during the public hearing process and I encourage Calgarians to reach out with their ideas.

Tonight, I plan to attend the annual Menorah lighting at City Hall, as I have before, where we will mourn the Sydney terrorist attack victims and remember the miracle of bringing light to the darkest of times.

I was thrilled to attend the annual Santa Claus parade in Huntington Hills tonight to share the spirit of Christmas during the countdown to Dec. 25.

The evening was made complete with Santa giving out toys to all of the children at the parade. A perfect example of the generosity of Calgarians.

Hey, Neighbour!

Over the past few weeks my Ward 4 team has been answering a lot of emails about topics ranging from snow removal to rezoning.

If you live in Ward 4, I want to hear from you. Email the Ward 4 office, or submit your ideas or concerns to me directly at djkelly.ca.

Partnerships are at the heart of my work for the neighbours of Ward 4. I was pleased to meet with Contemporary Calgary on Thursday to learn about their plans to transform into a vibrant hub for arts, culture, and community

After 23 days the budget is complete and council has delivered some big wins for Calgarians. We managed to reduce the tax increase to 1.6 per cent, which is below the inflation rate, while actually increasing services delivered to transit and recreation users. 1/2

As council begins to debate amendments to the 2026 budget starting on Monday, this is where the numbers are at before any changes are made.

The Prime Minister of Canada just received a standing ovation in Calgary at a @calgarychamber.bsky.social event. Today is a day for Calgary and Alberta very few thought would happen.

I’m heartbroken by the severity of Camilla and Alejandra’s injuries, and that their family first learnt of the collision from seeing ambulances close to their home.

With 450 pedestrian collisions this year on Calgary roads... 1/2

Last night was the official opening of the Lions Festival of Lights. My council colleagues @mykeatkinson.bsky.social, @jeromyyyc.bsky.social and I, along with the large crowd, had a blast!

On Thursday morning a child and an adult in Dalhousie were the latest in Calgary's rash of pedestrian/vehicle collisions. My thoughts are with them and their family as I hope for the best possible outcome. On Friday morning... 1/2

We must always be a city where every Calgarian is free to live their life. On #TransDayOfRemembrance, we honour those lost to transphobia and commit to building a city where every person is safe, accepted, and celebrated.
Today, I proclaimed Transgender Day of Remembrance in Calgary. We honour those we’ve lost, and we stand with resolve for a city where everyone can live safely and authentically. We will keep fighting for every person’s right to be who they are: openly, proudly, and without fear. #yyccc

Thank you Chapelhow Legion 284 and President Bill for the opportunity to bring greetings and lay a wreath at today's Remembrance Day ceremony on behalf of the City of Calgary and all Calgarians.

It's day one of the #yyccc budget review. We don't have a finance minister but I thought it was a good day to break out a new pair of shoes anyway - plain might they be.
