South Saskatchewan Regional Plan review engagement

Albertans can share feedback on the effectiveness and relevance of the South Saskatchewan Regional Plan.

Overview

The Land Use Secretariat is gathering feedback to help evaluate whether the South Saskatchewan Regional Plan remains relevant for the region and how effective it has been.

Established in 2014 and amended in 2017 and 2018, the South Saskatchewan Regional Plan guides the Alberta government's environmental management, addresses growth pressures and supports economic development in the South Saskatchewan Region. The 10-year review is required under the Alberta Land Stewardship Act and will consider the ongoing relevancy and effectiveness of the plan.

This review does not amend, repeal or replace the regional plan and the South Saskatchewan Regional Plan remains in effect and continues to provide strategic direction for the region.
