What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A provincial edict is forcing changes to residential zoning in Edmonton. If the city follows the edict as written, nearly half of small-scale residential zones will revert to RF1 or RF3. This change could remove limits on building size and unit count in neighborhoods including Twin Brooks and Garneau.
