Withdrawing our Current Application for a Renewed Path Forward

When we began this journey over four years ago, our vision was simple but heartfelt: to help build a more complete, more connected, and more compassionate community in Anmore. Our goal with Anmore South was never just about development—it was about creating a place where people of all walks of life could belong. A people-first community. A happy community.

Throughout this process, we’ve made every effort to listen—whether at community meetings, open houses, or across kitchen tables. We’ve tried to shape a vision that reflects the hopes of today and the needs of tomorrow. But as the conversation has unfolded, it’s become clear that our proposal, though supported by many, has also caused division. This was never our intent. In fact, it’s the opposite of what we set out to do.

We are incredibly grateful to those who have supported us and shared in the vision. We are also thankful for the thoughtful and open-minded approach taken by members of Council. However, we believe that continuing down the current path will not bring the community together. It will only deepen the divide, and that’s not how strong, resilient communities are built.

With that in mind, we’ve made the decision to withdraw our current application for Anmore South. This break will allow us to explore a path forward that brings more unity than discord. Our sincere hope is that this step will help ease tensions and create the space for a collaborative, community-driven solution.

Thank you again for your support, your belief in the potential of Anmore South, and your continued commitment to the future of this community we all care so deeply about.

Warmly,
Greg Moore, CEO, and the icona Team
