City of Calgary Notification Survey

City of Calgary - LUB changes to Notification

The City of Calgary is anticipating a change in how Development Permits are advertised to Calgarians. The City would like to stop advertising in the newspaper (Calgary Herald and Calgary Sun) and move primarily to advertising through online tools such as the Planning & Development Map. They anticipate starting this shift in October 2018. This change would only apply to advertising approved Development permits and will not apply to change in land use or existing notice posting details.
