Your Latest City Hall Votes Just Dropped
Alright, Calgary, let's talk about what's moving through City Hall, 'cause it ain't always as exciting as the Flames making the playoffs, but it affects our day-to-day, for real though. We've got a batch of recent votes from the Calgary Planning Commission that went down on March 12, 2026. Seems like they're keepin' things humming along, with four motions getting carried unanimously by the members listed in the records — that'd be Nathan Hawryluk, Thom Mahler, Charles Boechler, Katherine Wagner, and Chris Hardwicke, all voting "Yes" on reports CPC2026-0209 and CPC2026-0143. These reports, while not detailed in our current intel, typically deal with land use amendments or development permits that shape how our neighbourhoods grow, from Bridgeland's brunch spots to the sprawl out past Symons Valley.
### Development Still Chugging Along
Speaking of growth, our real-time Civic Intelligence Monitor, last updated at 12:06:36.983Z today, shows that Calgary issued 26 commercial or new construction permits this week. That's a steady clip, even if it's not a full-on boom like we've seen in the past. It means there are new buildings, new businesses, and new opportunities slowly coming online across the city. This is Calgary — we've seen the boom, we've seen the bust, and we showed up anyway. It's not a stampede, but it's progress, and we'll be watching to see where these projects are breaking ground and what they bring to our communities.
