Earlier this week, it came to our attention that someone had installed bench plaques at Bowmont Park. Due to our policy around commemorative plaques and graffiti, we removed them.
But we heard from Calgarians that you loved the sayings and you wanted them to stay. (thread)

We listened & reinstalled all the plaques. As The City, we have to err on the side of caution - but in this case, it was a bit too cautious.
Listening to what’s important to Calgarians is part of our job. If we can make changes for a better outcome, that’s what we’ll do.

Visit Bowmont Park and see if you can find all six signs. And for more adventures and unique experiences, head to a park in your community. Calgary parks make life better every day.
We ask that you contact us at 311 for any future ideas on park signage or installations.
