2024 is well underway. Here are some major updates related to Ward 3, the City of Calgary, and Council decisions.
City Building in Calgary
The City of Calgary is updating the plans that will shape our future. As our population climbs, the City has to prepare to support the growth. Right now, we’re gathering feedback on three key areas:
1. The Calgary Plan will merge the Municipal Development Plan with our Transportation Plan.
2. The new Zoning Bylaw (A.K.A Land Use) will simplify the rules of governing and form of buildings throughout Calgary.
3. The new Street Manual will give direction on supporting all forms of safe travel for Calgarians.
Each document is created with public feedback in mind, so please share your input over the next two months at calgary.ca/citybuilding.
Secondary Suites Amnesty Extension
City Council voted unanimously to extend the very successful Secondary Suites Amnesty Program until the end of 2026. Under this program, charges for development permits and registration fees are waived, enabling owners to continue building safe and legal suites at a reduced cost. Visit calgary.ca/suites for more information.

Calgary’s annual winter festival returns this month and runs from February 2 to 19. This year’s lineup features art installations, live shows and music, winter sports, local markets, and more. Mark your calendars and visit chinookblast.ca for all the event details.
