After council's decision, Calgary saw an uptick in row house, duplex and fourplex redevelopment proposals.
300 Calgarians signed onto a lawsuit that is seeking to overturn blanket rezoning through a judicial review of council’s decision.
The judge overseeing the case, Justice Michael Lema , said Dec. 11 that he’d render a decision in late December or early January .
