Municipal Fast-Track
ABOUT
Fast-Track
The Fast-Track program is a specific offering for municipalities that provides a framework for an accelerated approval process for middle housing projects, thereby reducing obstacles to entry for developers, minimizing risk, and ultimately increasing the supply of middle housing.
ABOUT
Fast-Track
mddl has led the way for designing and implementing municipal Fast Track programs across Canadian cities to reduce red tape and development risk by creating pre-approved designs with accelerated approvals. In Kelowna, we collaborated with the City to launch its Fast Track initiative, enabling 4-6 unit permit-ready designs on 1,300 historically underutilized lots, with guaranteed 10-day permit approvals.
