This document explains the Notice of Motion to repeal blanket upzoning and outlines why public support is needed at this stage of the process. It provides clear background, key concerns, and guidance on how residents can submit comments to City Council in support of a more contextual, community-driven approach to housing growth.

This is a press release and briefing prepared by Calgarians for Thoughtful Growth that clarifies federal Housing Accelerator Fund (HAF) funding is not legally conditional on maintaining blanket upzoning. It summarizes the HAF agreement, past assurances from City leadership, and evidence that Calgary has already exceeded its housing targets—providing context for why Council can proceed with repeal based on planning merits and democratic mandate rather than funding fears.
