The Province is hosting a series of webinars for local government staff to support implementation of Bills 44 (small scale multi-unit housing, planning reforms), 46 (development finance), and 47 (transit-oriented areas). Each webinar will include a presentation of technical details and legislative requirements and provide an opportunity to ask questions of subject matter experts.
The first set of webinars delivered through January focus on providing high-level information about the new pieces of legislation and the technical details for small-scale multi-unit housing and transit-oriented development areas to support implementation by June 30, 2024.
Local government staff can find out more about the webinars and register online.
