Municipal Development Plan

The Town's Municipal Development Plan (MDP) is a policy-based plan that is required under the Section 632 of the Municipal Government Act, R.S.A. 2000, c.M-26. The Town's MDP is primarily intended to help guide how Strathmore will manage growth and development over the longer term. The Town’s current Municipal Development Plan (MDP) was adopted by Council on April 14, 2014, when Bylaw No. 14-03 was enacted. The MDP is monitored and reviewed on a regular basis, and updated and/or amended from time to time. For more information on amending the MDP, please visit the MDP Amendments webpage. Please note that the entire MDP is currently under review.
