We have launched an “end-to-end” review of the development review process at the City. The review is expected to result in recommendations and procedural improvements that will make the development review process more efficient and easier to navigate for applicants.
A consultant will examine every step of development and permit applications, from application intake to approval, by engaging with City departments and external stakeholders involved in the development review process. The key departments included in the review are Planning, Property & Development, Public Works, and Water & Waste.
The “end-to-end” review is expected to help achieve the City’s goals under the Housing Accelerator Fund to increase the supply of residential units and better support future housing development in Winnipeg.
The consultant will be examining all aspects of the development review process beginning in March 2025 and present a report to the City with findings and recommendations by the end of the year.
