As Calgary continues to grow, delivering enough housing will require planning systems that are predictable, efficient, and supported by communities. This project explores how land use policies can encourage high-quality infill housing while providing greater certainty for homeowners, developers, municipalities, and the real estate industry.
The research will examine how permitted-use zoning can balance the need for increased housing supply with thoughtful design that reflects neighbourhood character. By identifying policy approaches that improve both housing outcomes and public confidence, the project aims to reduce approval uncertainty and support more effective decision-making.
The findings will help inform future land use policies that encourage quality housing, strengthen public trust, and support Calgary's long-term housing needs.
