Project Update (May 2024)
The project team would like to thank everyone who provided comment and feedback on LOC2024-0101 at 3207 29 ST SW. Outreach on this land use change proposal has now concluded, though any feedback received after this time will still be provided a response. An Applicant-Led Outreach Summary that highlights outreach strategies, commonly heard feedback themes, and project team responses is available in the “Downloadable Documents” section below. The proposal will proceed to Calgary Planning Commission, and a Public Hearing of Council in the coming months for decision.
Proposed Land Use Change
On behalf of EC Living, CivicWorks has made a Land Use Redesignation (rezoning, LOC2024-0101) application to transition the property at 3207 29 ST SW from the existing Direct Control (DC29Z91) District based on the R-2 (Residential - One / Two Dwelling) District, to the Housing - Grade-Oriented (H-GO) District. The proposed land use change and development vision will realize new and much needed ‘Missing Middle’ rental housing options in Killarney/Glengarry. EC Living will develop the proposed project using the Canada Housing & Mortgage Corporation’s Rental Construction Financing Program, which enables the delivery of well-located, high quality, and affordable rental housing options for Canadians of all ages, wages and stages.
Why Here?
The H-GO District is only appropriate in inner city areas along higher order streets or close to Activity Centres, Main Streets and frequent transit service, as well as within the specific policy boundaries of contemporary Local Area Plans. The specific bylaw location criteria for the H-GO District, including criteria met by the project site, are listed below:
An area within an approved Local Area Plan (eg. Westbrook Communities Local Area Plan) identified as a "Neighbourhood Connector" or “Neighbourhood Flex” Urban Form; or
If not within an approved Local Area Plan, an area within the “Centre City” or “Inner City” as identified in the Municipal Development Plan Urban Structure Map, that is also within one or more of the following
a. 200m of a Main Street or Activity Centre;
b. 600m of an existing or capital-funded LRT station;
c. 400m of an existing or capital-funded BRT station; or
d. 200m of a roadway that hosts Primary Transit Service.

The project site falls within the boundary of the Westbrook Communities Local Area Plan (LAP). The subject site is identified in the LAP as having a Neighbourhood Flex Urban Form Category at a Low-Modified Scale, meaning that residential and mixed use development of up to 4 storeys is encouraged here. The KG3207 proposal aligns with the Westbrook Communities LAP, and no amendment will be required to facilitate the rezoning.
