017: Behind the Facade: Impacts of Government Regulations on Home Construction with Shane Wenzel Dialogue Over Division
-
- Government
Get ready for another episode of 'Dialogue over Division' as we welcome Shane Wenzel, President & CEO of the Shane Homes Group of Companies. With years of experience navigating the intricacies of development and housing, Shane brings a wealth of knowledge about this subject that often seems overwhelming for the average citizen.
In this episode, we dive deep into the impact of government policies on the housing market. Shane has been involved in providing policy advice and publicly shedding light on how government regulations impact the homebuilding process. One key takeaway from our discussion? Despite the rhetoric and photo ops, it's clear that no level of government is directly involved in building homes. Instead, they contribute by crafting rules and regulations that can either facilitate or impede home construction and consequently the housing market.
Particularly striking is municipalities' approach to understanding housing development complexities. Whether they're in over their heads or simply misinterpreting the nuances, municipalities seem to struggle to grasp their role and jurisdiction, the realities of development, and the direct impact it has on the housing market.
Join us for this episode, airing just in time for Calgary's big town hall on April 22, 2024, where the topic of blanket rezoning will be in the spotlight. We're here to equip you with the knowledge and insights you need to navigate these crucial conversations and fulfill your civic responsibility. Don't miss out - tune in for an insightful discussion with Shane Wenzel!
This podcast series is your guide to becoming a more informed and engaged citizen. It's a call to action for you to take an active role in maintaining the vitality of our democracy.
