Growth and Development
The Heritage Communities Local Area Plan is a living policy document that is consulted alongside the Land Use By-Law, Municipal Development Plan and other City policies when development or redevelopment applications are made by developers, builders, or homeowners.
Visit the Development Map for information and opportunity to share comments on development or redevelopment applications for projects happening in the Heritage Communities or anywhere else in Calgary. Community profiles for each of the Heritage Communities can be found here.
