Description
The $15-million Local Government Development Approvals Program is part of the Province’s ongoing work to give local governments the tools necessary to meet housing needs in their communities.

Examples of projects that will qualify for funding include: upgrades to a digital or online development application process to make it easier for applicants to apply; developing a pre-application workshop or seminar to help developers better understand the application requirements and speed up the process; and conducting internal reviews of current development approvals processes to identify opportunities for improvement.
