Here are opportunities to inform municipal decisions about accessibility, rezoning, affordable housing, and more. Please only answer surveys from the municipality where you live.

  • Accessibility Policy Updates and New Corporate Plan Survey — The City of Edmonton is updating its Accessibility for People with Disabilities Policy and corporate accessibility policies to align with best practices. A What We Heard Report captures feedback from the first phase of engagement. Residents are now invited to share their thoughts on proposed updates and draft accessibility actions by completing a survey before March 16.
  • Rossdale Centre Rezoning — The City of Edmonton is considering an application to rezone the Rossdale Brewery area, along 100 Street NW between 98 Avenue NW and Rossdale Road NW. If approved, the application would preserve the Rossdale Brewery while allowing development around it, including up to 17-storey buildings and up to 490 dwellings. Residents are invited to ask a question or share their thoughts to a discussion board until March 16.
  • Belgravia 76 Avenue Rezoning — The City of Edmonton received two rezoning applications for two lots on 76 Avenue: 11607 76 Avenue NW and 11618 76 Avenue NW. Both lots are currently zoned as Small Scale Residential, while the developer wants them changed to Medium Scale Residential and Small-Medium Scale Transition Residential, allowing for a six-storey and a four-storey building, respectively. Feedback on these rezoning applications may also be applied to other rezoning applications in the McKernan and Belgravia neighbourhoods. Residents can ask a question or share their thoughts to a discussion board until March 23.
  • Accessible Affordable Housing Survey — The City of Edmonton wants to understand the current state of accessible and affordable housing, including supply, quality, location, and challenges faced by developers. Residents can complete a survey on the topic until March 24.
