Cut Red Tape update

The Cut Red Tape program has saved at least $12.7 million.

Being part of the Cut Red Tape program is something that I am very proud of. It epitomizes the reasons I sought this office. As the program transitions to its permanent home within The City’s daily operations, I am very happy to report that the Cut Red Tape program has saved at least $12.7 million for The City and Calgarians.

The cut red tape program requested ideas from three stakeholder groups: City employees, businesses, and citizens. To date, more than 40 of those ideas have been implemented, resulting in the over $12 million savings.

As Chairman of the Cut Red Tape Committee, I want to thank everyone who submitted their ideas, and remind you that your input is always welcome. I am always on the lookout for suggestions from constituents, so feel free to contact me anytime.​
