The Technical Review Committee (TRC) works with local developers to ensure development plans and activities meet required development regulations and technical standards. For more information about the development review process, please visit the Development Review page.
Approval is required for all new development in the city, including redevelopment of existing properties. The process through which that development is approved depends on what is being proposed and what the property is currently zoned (see current zoning map).
All new development projects within the city must apply for a Pre-TRC Consultation via the Development & Permitting Services (DPS) online platform. The platform allows users to submit applications, track the progress of existing applications, resubmit plans and documents, and pay invoices. Projects that are either currently under review or have been recently approved can be found on the DPS site.
