Greetings Ward 14!
Today, I am going to take a detour from the normal monthly list of topics and get right to the point. On April 22, City Council will undergo a public hearing and decide on whether or not to make some major changes to what type of building is allowed on properties in Calgary. I voted against moving forward with this, but here we are.
As a part of this public hearing, I must remain open to persuasion. That is the law, but it is also important to me to be open to what Calgarians think. There have been some opportunities for input, but it has not been enough.
I will be holding two sessions in April. These will be opportunities to speak with some of the City’s experts on proposed rezoning changes, and a chance to give me your thoughts face-to-face. I encourage you to visit calgary.ca/ward14 for all the details.
Feel free to contact me any time, and don’t forget to visit calgary.ca/ward14 for the full version of this column. The best way to contact me is by visiting calgary.ca/contactward14 or calling 403-268-1653.
Sincerely,
Councillor Peter Demong
