Proposed Land Use Changes Will Affect You and the Community!

This article also appears in the January 2020 edition of Bridges, the official BRCA newsletter, on pages 6 - 8. You can read the newsletter here.

For the past two years, the City of Calgary has been working on a new plan to guide development in Bridgeland. Many of you have provided the City with input on the characteristics that make this community great and on the current and future needs of Bridgeland. The City produced a number of “What We Heard” reports which were to inform the development of a new local area plan (called an Area Redevelopment Plan or ARP) for Bridgeland.
