Presentation: Land Use Bylaw Renewal
A wide-ranging look at how land use regulation affects how cities shape our lives; how they feel, function, and facilitate (or hinder) economic activity and wealth creation. The talk will also detail how the City of Lethbridge’s current Land Use Bylaw Renewal project is creating Lethbridge’ first wholly new Land Use Bylaw in 40 years.
