The City of Edmonton seeks public input on proposed changes to Zoning Bylaw 20001 and the District Policy that will impact development of new housing in redeveloping (existing) neighbourhoods in Edmonton.
In 2025 Council passed several motions asking Administration to do an analysis of several aspects of the zoning bylaw which impact infill development. The proposed changes include:
- Recommendations and implications on reducing the maximum number of dwellings on an interior site in the RS Zone.
- Options and recommendations to reduce the impact of height on adjacent properties in the RS Zone.
- Options and recommendations to support maintenance and retention of trees on private property.
- On potential amendments to the Zoning Bylaw or District Plans for consideration to limit mid-block redevelopment larger than small scale development outside of nodes and corridors with considerations of site size, height and context.
The City is committed to listening to Edmontonians about infill and sharing this input with Council to inform decisions about changes to the Zoning Bylaw and the District Policy.
To provide your feedback on these proposed changes, please visit edmonton.ca/infill. Input will be gathered until January 29 with a verbal summary presented to Urban Planning Committee on February 10.
