PROJECT ENGAGEMENT AND SURVEYS

INTRODUCTION

This engagement is split into three sections:

  • City Wide – (~2-5 minutes) - answer four broad questions about planning decisions in flood hazard areas.
  • Flood Hazard Area Zones - (~5-20 minutes) learn more about the new Flood Hazard Area Zones in Calgary, where they apply, and provide feedback about new regulations we are considering.
  • Land Use Planning - (~20 – 40 minutes) - explore how development can be shaped to reduce risk and provide feedback on proposed regulation for topics including density, land use, building and site design.

We suggest starting by learning about your reach of the river, and what changes may be taking place in your community:
