Reading the public record...

What's an important topic you want to see covered?

Calgary Votes tracks every motion, every voice vote, every recorded division at City Hall — but the agenda also belongs to you. Tell us what you want covered. Housing, transit, taxes, a specific councillor, a specific bylaw. We'll dig and publish. Independent of council, of party, of spin.

▸ Bring it to the floor

What would you vote to change?

A bus route. A bylaw. A bike lane. A bigger thing. The desk reads everything.

At the Council Desk

Dusty reads the council record so you don't have to.

Calgary's council passes thousands of motions a year. Most never make the news. The desk reads every one. Bylaws on parking. Variance applications. Bus route changes. Capital budget amendments. The boring stuff that runs your block. Then the desk surfaces what actually matters.

Ask Dusty about a vote, a councillor's record, an upcoming agenda item, or what changed at city hall this week. Pulls live from the City of Calgary public record. Honest, non-partisan, fast.

Margot D., Bridgeland2023
▸ Bylaw 32M2023 · 11th Ave SW bike lane
"I voted for two of the councillors who were against it. I didn't know they would be against it. The lane changed my commute. I learned the lesson."
Hassan Q., Forest Lawn2021
▸ Vote on the COVID rental hold
"My landlord raised my rent four days after the hold ended. I went to a council meeting for the first time. It changed how I read the news."
Anonymous filer #142018
▸ The 2026 Olympic plebiscite
"I voted yes. The city voted no. I was angry for a year. I think now they were probably right and I was probably wrong. The vote was the lesson."
Lila S., Ramsay2024
▸ Blanket rezoning for residential
"My block went to public hearing. I sat in the gallery for nine hours. The vote was 9-6. The thing I will remember is one councillor who changed her mind during the debate."
