HIGHLIGHTS
Woodlands County is exploring updates to its Land Use Bylaw. Woodlands County business owners, residents, and ratepayers are encouraged to attend public information workshops. These meetings provide an opportunity for County ratepayers to be involved early, learn about preliminary plans for the Land Use Bylaw, and gather information on the County's proposals.
Being Discussed:
How the new Bylaw will benefit those residing in the County Gathering preliminary feedback from County ratepayers.
Overview of Current Land Use Bylaw:
The County's current Land Use Bylaw 490-17 was adopted in 2017. Over the past seven years, the Bylaw has become outdated and requires updates to reflect changing development needs. The County identified changes that could be made to the Bylaw to benefit residents and the County as a whole.
Proposed Changes:
The County is exploring the following main areas to make changes:
• Reduce red tape for development and speed up the approval process
• Align the Land Use Bylaw with the Municipal Government Act and the County’s newly adopted Municipal Development Plan
• Introduce general updates to create a more effective and easy-to-use land use bylaw.
Details and additional information are provided at the Land Use Bylaw Public Information Workshop. More opportunities to participate in the proposed Land Use Bylaw in Fall 2024.
