YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Since the 1990s Okotoks has managed its growth a little differently than other communities, partly because of limits to water access from the Sheep River. As the CBC's Helen Pike hears, the town has released a growth plan that could see the community grow its population in the next 25 years to more than 70,000.
