Calgary is expecting to grow to 2 million residents sooner than anticipated. We need more homes in all shapes and sizes in all communities. This ensures Calgary remains a city that is sustainable, diverse, accessible, equitable, and livable for everyone.

What's next?

City Council wants to hear from you!

The Public Hearing of Council is on April 22, 2024.

You can still speak at the public hearing. Register here, or you can show up in person at City Hall on or after April 22, 2024.

Due to the large number of registered public speakers, the meeting will extend over multiple days and there is no guarantee that participants who register in person will be able to speak the same day. For more information, please visit calgary.ca/PublicHearing.

The City is committed to meeting the diverse needs of the public. We offer accessible services to make participating in Council public hearings more accommodating and inclusive, including a Transit Ticket Program and Parking Program.
