Speed to Housing

With record levels of in-migration, it is imperative that we can supply the amount of new development and building opportunities required to provide the housing and services for a growing population. This requires eliminating barriers and red tape and working collaboratively on creative solutions for getting approvals faster.

Our priorities include:

  • Streamline planning reviews and approvals
  • Open new development areas with planning and servicing, south of 41st Avenue
  • Create equity between infill and greenfield approvals
  • Review the 2025 Safety Codes with a lens on local requirements
  • Streamline permitting and inspection processes and timelines
