City of Calgary parks are looking for input and feedback from residents concerning a new cemetery planned for the city's southeast.

"Cemeteries are an essential service provided by The City of Calgary to and for Calgarians and we're looking for feedback on three design concepts," said Gary Daudlin, Parks Cemeteries superintendent. "Citizens' input on these designs will help us ensure the new cemetery meets the diverse needs of Calgarians now and in the years to come."
