Application Intake Open
The Infill Infrastructure Fund is now accepting applications. Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until July 9, 2026 or until all funding is allocated.
Provides funding for shared public infrastructure to support new market and non-market multi-unit housing in nodes and corridors and near transit.
The City Plan sets targets of adding 50% of new housing through infill city-wide and welcoming 600,000 people to the redeveloping area (roughly inside the Anthony Henday) by the time Edmonton’s population reaches 2 million. The goal is to create a healthy, urban, climate-resilient city where Edmontonians of all ages, abilities and backgrounds have access to a variety of housing options and can easily meet their daily needs close to home.
The City recognizes that the upfront investment required from developers for public infrastructure upgrades can be a significant barrier to building new housing in existing neighbourhoods. In addition, the first housing project in an area can often be required to cover the cost of public infrastructure upgrades that benefit subsequent projects.
The Infill Infrastructure Fund - part of the City’s Housing Accelerator Fund action plan - was created to help reduce these barriers. It will help cover the cost of shared public infrastructure upgrades to make it easier to build multi-unit market and non-market housing in nodes (urban centres) and corridors (main streets) and near transit.
The fund marks another major step in the work the City has been doing for more than a decade to reduce barriers to housing development, making Edmonton a top choice for the investment needed to support Edmonton’s rapid growth and tackle housing supply and affordability challenges.
