Partners in Planning – Understanding Urban Planning (Core Course)

What is Urban Planning? As Calgary grows, we want to build our city in a way that meets the needs of today and tomorrow. Learn how we progress towards our Municipal Development Plan (MDP) that promotes sustainable ways of living, encourages a variety of housing choices, is respectful of community character, and balances the interests of neighbourhoods with the interests of Calgary as a whole. Discover how policy and planning documents like the Municipal Development Plan, Developed Area Guidebook, Local Area Plans and the Land Use Bylaw work together to help create great neighbourhoods.
