How Does This Benefit Us? Regional Collaboration and the Calgary Metropolitan Region Board

The Calgary Metropolitan Region Board is made up of elected officials from the 8 member municipalities. They coordinate and cooperate on issues of land use, infrastructure, service delivery and economic development.

We hope to hear about how they work together and manage interests that sometimes align and sometimes are in conflict.
