Heritage Local Area Plan is the latest to face stiff Calgary ... (LiveWire Calgary)

Back in November 2022, the southwest Calgary communities of Eagle Ridge, Kelvin Grove and Chinook Park began a quest to prevent densification in their areas ...

There are a lot of factors to consider – including the number of people in each unit – that are difficult to determine. Penner said that would require a lot of assumptions on what the market is going to build. They said the province has no role in the development or implementation of a restrictive covenant aside from it being registered at the land titles office. “What originally started off, like the original scale and scope of densification, it’s a fraction of that. She said the current Heritage LAP does exactly what Buchanan wants. In layman’s terms, a restrictive covenant is registered against the title of a property in Alberta. They’re willing to do this through the use of a restrictive covenant. Further, when asked if they would accept density in busy neighbourhood corridors or main streets, Buchanan said there’s a conversation to be had. When asked if anyone should be able to live in whatever community they desire in Calgary, Buchanan said people can choose where they want to live. A restrictive covenant binds the current and future landowner to the covenant. I feel kind of nauseous about it,” the resident said. The restrictive covenant could prevent any other development aside from single-family homes in the prescribed area.
