Land Use Bylaw

Please discuss your project with the Administrator early in the planning stages to ensure that you are aware of conditions which may apply. A copy of the Village of Edberg Planning Study is available here.

Relationship Between Planning Documents

The hierarchy of documents within the Village of Edberg's land use planning framework is established by the MGA. The MGA requires that each level is consistent with the level above and below it, and that the policies or regulations within planning document(s) at each level may be implemented by those below them in the decision-making process. The MGA provides the legislative authority for municipal land use planning and decision-making. The statutory plans provide future direction for the development and use of lands at the fringe areas of the the Village of Edberg’s boundaries (IDPs), or within the whole village (MDP). The LUB regulates the use and development of land based on the policy directions of statutory plans, while the Subdivision and Development Regulation regulates subdivision planning in conjunction with the MGA, applicable statutory plans, and the Land Use Bylaw. Where there is a conflict or inconsistency between a higher-level planning document and a lower-level planning document, the higher-level planning document prevails to the extent of the conflict or inconsistency.
