Residents association · Calgary · SW · west springs

Springside's resident-run association funds common landscaping and fencing. Its published annual charge is $125 for covered houses and condos, separate from condominium fees. Public pages disagree on late-charge timing and some fence responsibilities; those points need written confirmation.

Late interest
Research required
Processing fees
Conflicting late-charge timing: homepage says after March 31; payment page says after May 31; policy says May 31; older FAQ says after the due date. All describe a $50 charge. Confirm in writing.
Transfer / setup charges
Research required

No explicit current fee year or GST treatment. The policy refers unpaid accounts to counsel after May 31, with legal costs borne by the owner. A historical FAQ describes the increase from $100 to $125 in 2010, not a new annual assessment series.

Important rules

  • The condominium fee does not include SRA dues

    Association-published

    The FAQ explicitly says the SRA charge is paid directly and in addition to condominium fees for Access, Sanctuary and Villas. Confirm the current unit account at closing.

  • Confirm who paints the community-facing fence

    Research required

    The fence-page summary makes owners responsible for both wooden-fence sides, while the detailed March 2022 policy assigns community-facing painting to SRA as required. Obtain a written allocation before commissioning work; the policy says owner repairs are not reimbursed.

  • Confirm the current colour and written approval

    Research required

    The dedicated page names Allspice (CA042) for stucco, updated August 2022; the older FAQ names Clay (CA047). Wooden-fence stain is listed as Springside Taupe. Ask the board for the current specification and written permission for removal or design/colour changes.

  • Governance membership and the title charge are different

    Research required

    Posted bylaws sections 2.1–2.2 combine ownership, residence and age requirements and permit resignation. That wording does not establish a release of the registered annual charge. Ask the board how nonresident ownership and tenant households are handled.

Where it applies

Boundary and coverage

Operational coverage

Springside is north of Bow Trail between 77 and 85 Streets SW. The bylaws further describe the northern limit using 10 Avenue extended west. Use these as orientation and confirm the exact title, not the entire West Springs polygon.

SRA maintains development assets; WSCR organizes broader community activities. SRA is also distinct from the Access, Sanctuary and Villas condominium boards.

Common misconception

Limits of the association’s role

  • SRA says it does not currently provide snow removal.
  • Condominium budgets and the separate WSCR community association's activities are different arrangements.
