Resident Participation & Input

1. Land Use Bylaw

Mountain View County Council periodically reviews the Land Use Bylaw every two to three years to ensure its relevance and alignment with residents’ and businesses’ needs. Three open houses; two in 2023 and the third on January 8, 2024, have been conducted. If you missed these events, you can still provide feedback by visiting the county website, where proposed changes and related information are available. Please stay tuned for details on future public hearings and for any suggestions, contact county administration or your local area councillor.

When the Provincial Government updated the Municipal Government Act in 2017 it became a requirement that municipalities implement a Public Participation Policy that outlined how municipalities would inform and - where required - actively engage their public.

On June 13, 2018, Mountain View County Council approved Policy #1030 Public Participation.
