Partners in Planning will host Built Form Evolution: Case Studies in Marda Loop on Sunday, June 22nd. Don't miss this interactive walking tour that will explore how zoning rules, planning policies, and urban design guidelines shape the built environment in Calgary’s residential neighbourhoods. #YYC

Zoning determines the shape and size of buildings and how land can be used. The new Zoning Bylaw is evolving the current Land Use Bylaw by guiding growth, making rules clearer, and supporting the long-term vision of the Calgary Plan.

As Calgary grows, we need more affordable housing that meets people’s needs. The new Zoning Bylaw aims to simplify rules for building different types of homes across all neighbourhoods.

Parking rules impact housing costs, mobility, and land use. How should zoning balance these factors?
