@joshyyc @gccarra @everydaytourist @JAFurness @UrbanIrvine @mwilhelmyyc @AlanZakrison @skiergurl @skyscaping @collenbe @YYCTKW @KalenAnderson @DowntownJason @MountPleasantCA population in 2019 was 5889 people, interestingly down from 6001 in 2018. We are past our first peak which occurred sometime in the late 1960’s. wondering if 6001 is our 2nd peak… when is the next census?

@klaszus Of the communities in opposition and has seen DC/H-GO type applications, they are opposed in areas where 6 storey apartment buildings are currently outlined in the NHLAP.

@ShaneWenzel The narrative that says the majority of travel exclusively by bike or car is damaging. It’s not about travelling by one or the other it’s about the option of being able to choose. Even if winter cycling #s drops off, there’s still a reduction in car use the other 3 seasons.

This gives me hope

@matt_sheldrake @teresagoldstein Thank you so so much! It’s really to help my team visualize upa/uph and compare to what is familiar to them. Very helpful. 💕

I’m trying to remember a document that outlined the various densities (upa) that Calgary inner city neighbourhoods have achieved. Can anyone point me on the right direction? @matt_sheldrake @teresagoldstein #yycplan

[Jessica Karpat @jess_yyc]

This is very big. However, actual implementation will be dependant on how they handle parking associated with this new mandate. Doesn’t look like they provided any direction in this regard?

[Brent Toderian @BrentToderian]

BREAKING & BIG! The New Zealand Government is banning detached housing zoning across the WHOLE COUNTRY, forcing all local municipal govts to allow 3 homes/3 storeys on every lot city-wide! They had already banned parking minimums & required 6 storey density at transit stations!

@GregGinYYC @PrettBearce Inquiring minds want to know. #yyccc #thismightgetinterestimg

[Stephen Carter @carter_AB]

Well.

If true, this would be big.

Spoiler: not true.

When you vote for #yyc mayor, imagine how important positive and forward-looking economic development is going to be in the next few years. Who should we send out there to attract investment, capital and talent? #yyccc

@fatimabsyed This is unacceptable. Please report this criminal to the @CalgaryPolice
