Frequently Asked Questions

We’ve tried to think of everything but if we missed something you don’t see answered here, please get in touch at calgary@anthemproperties.com.

  • How many homes will be in Sirocco at Pine Creek?

    Sirocco at Pine Creek will be a community of over 1,200 homes once complete.

  • What is the expected time frame to complete Sirocco at Pine Creek?

    We anticipate that the community will be fully developed by 2028.

  • Will there be a Resident's Association in Sirocco at Pine Creek?

    To keep Sirocco’s parks, landscaping and other features beautifully maintained, there will be a Resident’s Association. Residents will be responsible for a mandatory fee of $150 per year, per single family home.

  • What is the difference between a Community Association and a Resident or Homeowner Association?

    A Community Association is a voluntary organization formed by residents of an area to:

    • Manage and direct its social and recreational activities
    • Act as an intervener in civic matters (planning and development)
    • Plan, develop and maintain community facilities and amenities

    A Resident / Homeowner Association is a compulsory organization created by a land developer to:

    • Manage and maintain community amenities (entrance signage, ornamental parks and ponds, boulevard landscaping and building) that the City will not maintain

    Membership in a Resident / Homeowner Association is compulsory and the annual fee is collected by the association through a caveat on title.

  • Do I get a fence included with my home?

    Chain link fencing is provided for lots that share a property line with a municipal reserve or municipal school reserve. Some lots that share a property line with multi-family parcels will have developer installed wood screen fencing.
    For more information, talk to one of our sales teams, as they can walk you through the details lot by lot.

  • Does Anthem plant trees on my property?

    Anthem, the community developer, does not plant trees on private property. However, Sirocco at Pine Creek is part of the City’s Complete Streets initiative, where trees are planted in the road right of way along each street.

    The road right of way (or boulevard) adjacent to your property is land that is actually owned by the City and maintained by you. The City uses this land for snow stock piling, road maintenance or other items as required.

  • What is the Complete Streets Tree Planting Program?

    Complete Streets is one of the many reasons why Sirocco is the perfect place to call home. It’s an initiative designed to enhance residential streets with added colour, shade and natural protection by planting and caring for trees along public roads.

    Anthem, and then afterward the City of Calgary, will maintain these trees – but not the grass below, which will grow wild and free until you rein it in with your expert mowing skills.

    To find out more, email calgary@anthemproperties.com, or get more information about the program on the city’s website. 

  • Can I bring my own builder?

    We do not allow homeowners to use their own builders, as we have carefully selected a group of skilled and trusted builders to craft each home and maintain a curated aesthetic throughout the community.

  • When will ridge lots become available?

    The desirable ridge lots that look west over the creek bed or southwest onto Sirocco Golf Club are expected in phases four to seven, with sales to begin as early as 2022.
