TEMPORARY USE: INSTRUCTIONAL FACILITY (OFFICE TRAILER, 2 YEARS)

Permit issued. The municipality records this as Released.municipal status: “Released

What this status means

Permit issued. The permit has been issued or released. Issuance means work may lawfully begin; it is not evidence that work has begun.

Calgary publishes this as “Released”, which it uses to mean: The development permit has been released. In Calgary a permit is decided first and released only after the appeal period ends, so this is issuance rather than the decision itself.

This record comes from the full archive

The municipal record above is complete and unedited. What is thinner is everything this platform builds around it: project grouping, party links and generated briefs are computed for the most recent twelve months, so they are absent here rather than empty. The filing itself, its status, its dates and its evidence are exactly as acquired.

Site locations

The City publishes 2 locations on this file. A development site is frequently several titled parcels, and collapsing them to one address would lose the site.

Questions about DP2023-03951

Answered from this filing's published fields. Every sentence describes the application, not a building.

What is DP2023-03951?
DP2023-03951 is a development permit filed with the City of Calgary at 5249 28 AV SE. The City describes it as: "TEMPORARY USE: INSTRUCTIONAL FACILITY (OFFICE TRAILER, 2 YEARS)". It is a municipal filing — a record of what was put to the City, not a record of what was built.
Has DP2023-03951 been approved?
The City of Calgary publishes the status of DP2023-03951 as "Released". The development permit has been released. In Calgary a permit is decided first and released only after the appeal period ends, so this is issuance rather than the decision itself. A filing's status describes the application, not construction: an approved application is not a building, and an issued permit is not proof that work began.
When was DP2023-03951 applied for?
DP2023-03951 carries an application date of 2023-06-14 on the City of Calgary's published record, with a decision recorded 2023-07-13.
What else has been filed at 5249 28 AV SE?
2 municipal filings are recorded at 5249 28 AV SE, including DP2023-03951. Multiple filings at one address are normal — a development permit and its building permits are separate applications — and do not indicate multiple buildings.

Supporting documents

None are hosted here, and this is a rights decision rather than a gap in the pipeline. Calgary’s open data publishes no document URLs at all; the drawings and studies live in the City’s own map viewer and are largely authored by the applicant, which places them outside the licence’s grant.
