As a kid, did you ever run to the corner store to buy milk and bread for your mom? A corner store was a staple in many neighbourhoods around Lethbridge in the mid-to-late 1900s. As the city has grown and evolved, so have our neighbourhoods and the types of amenities and businesses in them.

The City’s existing Land Use Bylaw (LUB) has served the community since 1986 and just like the errands you run for your mom (might) have changed, so have the needs and priorities of the community. As Phase Two of the LUB Renewal project kicks off today, the City wants to hear from you!
