City-Wide Rezoning Proposal
To address the on-going housing affordability crisis, cities across Canada are taking steps to make home building easier. The City of Calgary is proposing a city-wide rezoning, which will allow duplexes and rowhouses to be built in more places across the city. Postcards were mailed to affected residents in January about city-wide information sessions.
This month impacted landowners will receive additional notification of the proposal.
A public hearing date has been set for April 22, 2024. You can register at calgary.ca/publichearing.

Single Use Items Bylaw Repeal
In January, City administration rolled out a Single Use Items Bylaw. Many residents reached out to my office to express concerns about the bylaw. There were requests for changes, as well as requests to fully repeal the bylaw. In particular, I heard frustration about the bylaw’s application in drive-thru and fast-food establishments. After much debate about whether to change aspects of the bylaw, or scrap it, Council decided to proceed with a full repeal. Thanks to everyone who reached out to express their concerns.
