A new proposed planning document, The Guidebook for Great Communities ("Guidebook"), was presented to Calgary City Counci and a public hearing was conducted at between March 22 -24, 2021. At the conclusion of the hearing Council directed Administration to report to the May 5, 2021 SPC on Planning and Urban Development with a "What We Heard" report based on the public hearing and propose recommended amendments to the Guidebook for Council consideration, engaging with stakeholders as needed, with public participation at the committee meeting.
On the basis that the Guidebook has been referred back to administration to summarize the public hearing into a "What We Heard" report, which will hopefully succinctly capture a comprehensive list of all concerns that Calgargians have raised about this policy, this section remains as a placeholder in anticipation of in the future containing a link to that report and/or excerpts from it.
