Why CivilProposal exists
Site facts are spread across dozens of government websites
Zoning sits with the municipality, flood mapping with a conservation authority or the province, rainfall curves and seismic values with federal agencies. CivilProposal gathers what is openly licensed into one report for the address, names the source of every value, and links to the right office for anything that isn't open.
What's in the report
The site facts behind every design decision
Sourced and attributed, with gaps labelled rather than filled in.
Site context
Parcel, zoning, floodplain, topography, soils, IDF rainfall curves, seismic hazard and site class, heritage, roads and transit, environmental overlays and wildfire history for the address. Useful for civil, structural, geotechnical and environmental work on the same project.
Utilities & servicing
Water, sanitary, and storm mains, hydrants, stormwater structures and pressure zones where the municipality licenses them. Utility coordination context.
Permits & approvals
Likely permits, the authority having jurisdiction, and decision periods where the law or the municipality publishes them.
Cost drivers & verification
The site conditions that add work, each with its source, and what to confirm with the authority before you rely on the report.

Permit context
- development permit: decision due within 40 days (calendar days) (legislated decision period, Calgary). Legislated in Municipal Government Act s. 684(1). The clock starts when the applicant receives the acknowledgment that the application is complete (s. 683.1); it can be extended by written agreement (s. 684(2)); if no decision is made in time the applicant may treat the application as refused (s. 684(3)).
- 29 development permits applied for since 2021-09-28 within 250 m (Signs - Discretionary Use 8, Change of Use - Permitted Use 4, Surface Parking Lots 4, Change of Use - With Change to Site Plan 3, Change of Use - Discretionary Use or Relaxations Required 2, …).

The run names the authority rather than asserting an answer.
Scope and fee (Pursuits and Enterprise plans)
Not shown here. On Pursuits and Enterprise plans, your fee appears only after the engineer confirms project details and civil scopes, so a sample fee would be misleading.
