The purpose of these plans is to foster a collaborative planning approach for lands along the common border between the two municipalities. This will ensure that certain identified areas are viewed with regional perspective. By implementing a plan that contains both guidelines for future uses as well as agreed dispute mechanisms, urban and rural municipalities can reach agreement without negative impacts on either municipality. From the perspective of both municipalities, enhanced management of the land within the IDP area identified will prove advantageous for the long-term interests of the municipalities and their residents. DISCUSSION/ OPTIONS/ BENEFITS/ DISADVANTAGES: A proposed draft was created and the administration and the assigned Committee from both Kneehill County and the Town of Trochu have met to review and revise the proposed draft. The draft that has been attached is the outcome of this review. This draft notes the following objectives: •It provides a framework for collaboration when developing lands within the IDP area. •It promotes open communication between the Town, County, the public, and interested stakeholders. •It promotes respect for each other’s jurisdictional autonomy and integrity. •It provides a framework for the provision of services and infrastructure required for the joint planning area that demonstrates an equitable, efficient and proactive approach. •It is a guide to collaboratively plan for lands within the IDP area that will promote opportunities for residential, commercial, industrial and economic development while minimizing land use and environmental impacts. The next step in the process is to provide an opportunity for public comments and feedback. Landowners within the defined plan area have all been notified regarding the proposed IDP. Trochu held their Public Hearing on June 10, 2019. Their bylaw received all three readings.

The preparation of an Intermunicipal Development Plan (IDP) is to foster a collaborative planning approach which will work towards avoiding future land use conflicts for lands along the common border. This will ensure that certain identified areas are viewed with a regional perspective. By implementing a plan that contains both policies for future uses as well as agreed dispute mechanisms, urban and rural municipalities can reach agreement without negative impacts on either municipality. From the perspective of both municipalities, enhanced management of the land within the IDP Area, identified on the map as zones 1 and 2, will prove advantageous for the long-term interests of the municipalities and their residents. MUTUAL OBJECTIVES The two municipalities agree:  To develop an IDP framework for how the County and the Town will collaborate together in order to plan and develop lands contained within the IDP Area.  To promote open communication between the municipalities, the public, and interested stakeholders, and provide meaningful involvement and consultation.  To respect each other’s jurisdictional autonomy and integrity.  To provide a framework for the provision of services and infrastructure required for the IDP Area that demonstrates an equitable, efficient and proactive approach.  To utilize the IDP as a guide to collaboratively plan for lands within the IDP Area that will promote opportunities for residential, commercial, industrial and economic development while minimizing land use and environmental impacts. PURPOSE AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES This IDP has been prepared in accordance with the Municipal Government Act which encourages cooperation and coordination between neighbouring municipalities with regard to planning matters in the vicinity of their joint boundaries. The IDP creates a shared vision for future growth by establishing a long- term strategy balancing the interests of both municipalities. This IDP intends to promote ongoing coordination, collaboration and cooperation between the two municipalities by providing a framework to discuss planning matters that affect and influence one another. For the purposes of this process, the County and the Town agree to respect the following guiding principles:  Mutual respect and equity. 22 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 4  Cooperation, collaboration, communication and trust.  Coordinated, consistent and timely response.  Respect for environment and natural capital.  Public engagement and consultation.  Economic growth and development. PLAN AREA 1. Urban Fringe or Interface Area (Residential Uses)  This area is illustrated as Zone #1. These lands would best accommodate future residential development although those areas along Highway 21 could support highway commercial. (See Schedule 1) 2. Future Land Concept (Commercial and Industrial Uses)  These are identified as Zone #2, and are areas where different land uses meet and interact. These lands serve as a guide in locating future commercial and industrial development due to the proximity to highway access. These lands provide general locations for future land uses, however development constraints exist in these areas due to topographical features of the lands. (See Schedule 1) The Town and County, as per this Plan, shall strive to engage in effective dialogue when considering land use in the Plan Area, while still maintaining complete jurisdiction on lands within their own boundaries. The Town and County may collaborate and investigate methods of giving support to projects that may mutually benefit or enhance the quality of life of residents from both municipalities. This could be in the form of in-kind donations, materials, municipal letters of support, application for grants, or other more permanent arrangements upon mutual agreement. Both municipalities shall act as good neighbours with respect to Urban Fringe or Interface Areas and Future Land Concept Areas illustrated as Zone #1 and #2. Each will ensure future land use designations and interface boundaries are compatible and consistent with both jurisdictions’ goals and aspirations. Kneehill County will notify the Town of any proposals, applications, studies, or future plans for areas as illustrated in Zones #1 and #2 within the County boundary, and provide informative communication and invitations to respond. The Town will notify the County of any proposals, applications, studies, or future plans for areas as illustrated in Zones #1 and #2 within their Town boundary and provide informative communication and invitations to respond. Where an intermunicipal referral is required by legislation or policies contained in this Plan, both municipalities agree to share the mailing address and property ownership information for circulation purposes with the adjacent municipality, and where applicable, the municipality’s processing agency. All subdivision and redesignation applications for lands within the identified Plan Areas shall be referred to the other municipality for comment prior to a decision being rendered. 23 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 5 All discretionary use applications within the identified Plan Areas shall be referred to the other municipality for comment prior to a decision being rendered. As per Section 636(1)(d) of the Municipal Government Act, notification to the Town or County will be circulated when changes to either Municipal Development Plan are being proposed. The Town or County will have an opportunity to provide comments regarding the proposed changes. POLICIES Managing Growth – IDP policies must be flexible enough to permit all reasonable developments in a contiguous manner. The IDP has a goal to facilitate orderly, efficient and environmentally sound development compatible with the character and physical setting of the IDP Area while minimizing conflicts between agricultural and urban land uses.  Future development shall be planned in accordance with the zones identified in the IDP Area map. Land uses within the current Town boundary shall be guided by the Town’s Municipal Development Plan and minor amendments to the MDP shall not require an amendment to the IDP. Land uses within the current County boundary shall be guided by the County’s Municipal Development Plan, and minor amendments to the MDP shall not require an amendment to the IDP.  The Town and County shall endeavour to implement cost-sharing arrangements supporting an equitable distribution of costs associated with increased growth and development in the Joint IDP Areas.  Both municipalities shall provide a variety of development opportunities within their jurisdiction.  Future development in proximity to Highway 21 and 585 shall be planned in consultation with Alberta Transportation. Plan Area Environment – The natural environment surrounding the Town does not respect municipal boundaries. Water courses, hills, soil conditions and vegetation intermingle across urban and rural boundaries as well as the Plan boundary. (See Schedule 2)  Both municipalities shall recognize the value of the natural environment and its contribution to quality of life.  Proposed development in areas that are prone to erosion, landslides, or any other natural hazards, as well as proposed development in proximity to steep or unstable slopes will be subject to requirements as identified in subject Land Use Bylaws to the satisfaction of the approving authority.  Applicants of a redesignation, subdivision or development on lands adjacent to a water course shall be required to obtain confirmation of the 1:100-year flood level on the affected lands. Applicants may also be required to provide an 24 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 6 environmental review prepared by a qualified professional where an environmentally sensitive feature is present on the affected lands as identified by the Province of Alberta. Transportation Systems – The Town and the County recognize the importance of establishing and creating a continuous network of roads within the Plan Area in order to efficiently manage future growth.  Subdivision and development proposals located in the IDP Area must address linkages between the two municipalities to accommodate layout, setbacks, and road uses to ensure orderly and efficient transition to urban densities.  Subdivision and development decisions within the IDP Area will have regard for future road networks. Each municipality shall be notified of any subdivision or development proposal in the other municipality that will result in access being required from a road under its control or management.  Accounting for the location of existing development, topography and other site specific considerations, there may be circumstances where road alignments will need to be altered in responding to the needs of subdivision or development. Economic and Joint Development – Planning future growth may raise opportunities in the IDP Area for mutually beneficial economic development and joint development opportunities, and these may arise in the form of shared servicing upgrades or community based facilities.  Both municipalities shall work together to ensure a strong, stable and diversified local and regional economy.  The Town and County shall ensure the IDP provides a suitable inventory of lands for commercial and industrial development.  The Town and County shall work together to explore areas of mutual interest where agreements can be considered to ensure that development opportunities will be to the benefit of both municipalities. Agricultural Uses – Agricultural uses represent the largest land use category of the IDP. The IDP strives to maintain the importance of agriculture by directing future growth in a compact, contiguous manner than minimizes intrusions into agriculture operations. This will ensure agricultural operations continue to operate and remain a significant contributor to the local economy.  Existing agriculture areas shall continue to be used for agricultural activities as provided for in the County’s Municipal Development Plan and Land Use Bylaw, unless a landowner proposes to convert agricultural lands to another opportunity provided for in the IDP.  When making decisions regarding development on or adjacent to agricultural lands, both municipalities shall give consideration for agricultural operators to pursue normal activities without interference or restriction based on their impact on adjacent uses. 25 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 7 Residential Uses (Zone #1) – These areas are best suited for future residential developments, and are sited to reduce conflicts between residential and non-residential land uses. A balanced range of housing opportunities compatible with market preferences will be encouraged considering the needs of existing and proposed adjacent land uses. To ensure that the areas are preserved for future urban growth, and future integration and the urban fabric is not compromised, the following development conditions shall apply, unless otherwise agreed to by the Town and County:  An urban residential development proposal may be accompanied by an application for annexation to the Town.  A prerequisite to a multi-lot subdivision or development will be the preparation of an Outline Plan or Area Structure Plan to the Town and County’s satisfaction to ensure that issues relating to future land use, servicing transitional treatments and phasing are addressed in a manner that ensures compatibility with existing or proposed development.  Should the proposed subdivision or development occupy only a portion of the quarter section, the Area Structure Plan or Outline Plan shall describe what is proposed for the ultimate build-out of the lands and how the proposed development will be integrated into the Town upon annexation.  Water and sanitary sewer may be extended from the Town. Development levies or equivalent contributions shall be collected from the benefiting developments so that the cost of these extensions does not directly impact existing residents of the Town or County.  Best management practices for storm water management shall be required in accordance with Alberta Environment and Parks regulations.  Other infrastructure standards shall be negotiated with the Town to ensure that adequate standard for urban residential development are met.  Any residential development proposed adjacent to a watercourse or wetland or hazard lands may require a geotechnical study and environmental review to confirm the site is suitable for the intended use and describe the potential impacts of the development and the extent to which these impacts may be mitigated. Commercial and Industrial Uses (Zone #2) – These areas are best suited for commercial and industrial development, and would provide a stronger level of certainty for prospective developers. Promoting a well-planned commercial and industrial development will support the creation of a strong and diversified economy, expanding the availability of employment opportunities and contributing to a balanced municipal assessment base.  Both municipalities shall work together to maximize the advantages of commercial and industrial opportunities potentially offered by the proximity to Highways 21 and 585.  A prerequisite to multi-lot subdivision and development will be the preparation of an Outline Plan or an Area Structure Plan to the Town and County’s satisfaction to ensure that issues relating to 26 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 8 future land use, servicing transitional treatments and phasing are addressed in a manner that ensures compatibility with existing or proposed development within the Town.  Water and sanitary sewer may be extended from the Town. Development levies or equivalent contributions shall be collected from the benefiting developments so that the cost of these extensions does not directly impact existing residents of the Town or County.  Best management practices for storm water management shall be required in accordance with Alberta Environment and Parks regulations.  Buffers or similar mechanisms to mitigate potential conflict between commercial/industrial, agricultural and other uses shall be used where needed.  Any commercial/industrial development proposed adjacent to a watercourse or wetland or hazard lands may require a geotechnical study and an environmental review to confirm the site is suitable for the intended use and describe the potential impacts of the development and the extent to which these impacts may be mitigated. Plan Review  The implementation of this Plan is intended to be an ongoing process to ensure it is maintained and remains applicable. A committee with joint representation will ensure continued dialogue and cooperation, as the purpose of this committee is to promote active cooperation and conflict resolution through a consensus-based approach.  For the purposes of administering the monitoring of the IDP, the Town and County will establish the Intermunicipal Development Plan Committee (the Committee) comprised of an even number of members of Council from both the Town and the County. Each municipality may appoint an alternate Committee member in the event a regular member cannot attend a scheduled meeting. Alternate Committee members shall have standing.  The IDP will be formally reviewed by this Committee once every three years, beginning in 2019 in order to confirm or recommend amendments of any particular policy contained herein. The committee will prepare recommendations for consideration by the Municipal Councils. Members of the Committee shall be appointed by their respective Councils at their Organizational Meeting. If a Council wishes to appoint a new member to the Committee (including the alternate), they must do so by motion of Council at a regular Council meeting. The municipalities shall notify one another upon appointing members and alternate members to the Committee. 27 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 9 Functions of the Committee The Town and the County agree that the main functions of the Committee are to:  Create a forum for dialogue on issues of common interest and concern;  Address concerns regarding the policies of the Plan;  Address proposed amendments to the Plan;  Engage in resolving any conflicts or disputes which arise from this Plan – both municipalities will equally share costs associated with using outside assistance to resolve a dispute; and  Address any other land use issues deemed appropriate, but which are not explicitly identified in the Plan.  Meetings of the Committee shall be held on an “as needed basis”, or at the request of either municipality. Committee meetings should be held as soon as possible if any conflict arises, or if any matter is brought before it.  The municipality that called the meeting of the Committee shall host and chair the meeting and is responsible for preparing and distributing agendas and minutes.  Both Councils agree the Committee is not a decision making body and that the Committee shall issue a written response in the form of comments and/or recommendations to the appropriate decision making body. Annexation  The County recognizes and agrees that the Town will need additional land to grow and will support annexations that will provide for 30-40 years of projected growth within the boundaries of the Town.  The annexation process may be initiated by the Town in accordance with the requirements of the Municipal Government Act.  The Town and County will endeavour to reach an intermunicipal agreement on the annexation prior to submitting the annexation to the Municipal Government Board. Dispute Resolution The policies of this Plan are designed to be general in nature, ensuring that both the Town and County maintain jurisdiction over the decisions made within their borders. It is anticipated that by following the process below, any disputes or conflicts that may arise can first be avoided, and where necessary, settled 28 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 10 at the local level. Only in those circumstances where a resolution cannot be achieved locally would the dispute be referred to outside parties. It is important to avoid dispute by ensuring the Plan is adhered to as adopted, including full circulation of any permit or application that may affect the municipality as required in the Plan and prompt enforcement of the Plan policies. The Town and County agree that disputes relating to the IDP shall be restricted to the following:  Lack of agreement on proposed amendments to the plan  Lack of agreement on any proposed statutory plan, land use bylaw or amendment to either located within or affecting the Intermunicipal Development Plan Area  Lack of agreement on an interpretation of this plan Dispute Resolution Process  The formal dispute resolution process may only be initiated by the Town or County Councils.  Identification of a dispute and the desire to go through the dispute resolution process may occur at any time regarding a dispute matter and may only occur within 30 calendar days of a decision made pursuant to the above noted areas that may be disputed. Once either municipality has received written notice of a dispute, the dispute resolution process must be started within 15 calendar days of the date the written notice was received, unless both Chief Administrative Officers agree otherwise.  In the event the dispute resolution process is initiated, the municipality having authority over the matter shall not give any further approval in any way until the dispute has been resolved or the mediation process has been concluded.  The process shall be as follows: o Administrative Review – the Chief Administrative Officers of both municipalities will meet in an attempt to resolve the issue first. Failing resolution, the dispute will then be referred to the Intermunicipal Planning Committee. o Intermunicipal Planning Committee Review – the Committee will convene to consider and attempt to resolve the dispute. In the event a resolution is not achieved by the 30th day following the first meeting of the Intermunicipal Planning Committee, either municipality may refer the dispute to mediation. o Mediation – the services of an independent mediator will be retained, with the mediator to present a written recommendation to both Councils. The costs of mediation shall be shared equally between the Town and County. o Municipal Government Board – In the event the mediation process does not resolve the dispute, the initiating municipality may proceed to adopt the bylaw and in accordance with the Municipal Government Act, the other municipality will have the right to appeal to the Municipal Government Board.

The letter was a request from Trochu to haul debris from the demolition of the Pontmain school. Town of Trochu made a similar request of Kneehill County and a motion was carried to allow the Town of Trochu’s contractor to dispose of the demolition debris at the Kneehill County Waste Disposal Site by Torrington at a cost of $76.75 per load. This motion was passed on June 28, 2011 and since there has been many years since the original request, it is being brought forth to Council for consideration. The Kneehill County Waste Disposal Site is operated to offer residents of Kneehill County a place to dispose of inert material in a controlled environment. Over the past few years and since the last council motion to allow the disposal of the Pontmain School staff at the disposal site have become diligent in preventing the over use of the landfill by promoting and enforcing the sorting of loads to the various different sections of the site. This diligence is intended to extend the life of the landfill as long as possible. A site survey was completed by WSP in October of 2018 and the estimated air space remaining for the landfill pit was approximately 9 years with consideration given to the compaction capability of material received at the site as well as the attention to diverting materials from the pit. The current pit in use is the last one of the three under the Alberta Environment approval. The letter from the Town does state that the demolition material is to be sorted to some capacity with certain materials being retained by the Town and other material being taken to the Drumheller landfill. This will decrease the amount of loads requested from 2011 request but, there was no estimate of loads to come to Kneehill County with this request. As a Class III facility, Kneehill County may only accept inert construction material, it would have to be confirmed the composition of the roofing material before being accepted to the site. As per the current fee structure in place at the County site and the assumed size of the loads the cost per load would be $80.00 52 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package REQUEST FOR DECISION Agenda Item # 5.2.1 2 | Page COSTS/SOURCE OF FUNDING: Operational budget ENGAGEMENT: ☒ Directive Decision (Information Sharing-One way communication) Goal: To educate and inform citizens Tools: ☒ Individual Notification or ☐ Public Notification ☐ Consultative Decision (Consulting the Public – Two way communication) Goal: To seek feedback, test ideas, develop concepts and collaborative solutions Tools: ☐ Public Hearing ☐ Open House ☐ Focus Group ☐ Other- ☐ Collaborative Decision (Active Participation- Share or delegate decision making) Goal: To share or delegate decision making Tools: ☐ Participatory Decision Making ☐ Inter-Municipal Agreement ☐ Other- LINK TO STRATEGIC PLAN: Collaboration/cooperation ATTACHMENTS: Letter from Town of Trochu RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the request from the Town of Trochu to accept waste debris from the demolition of the Pontmain school and receive said material at the Kneehill County Waste Recovery Site located southwest of Torrington.

The purpose of these plans is to foster a collaborative planning approach for lands along the common border between the two municipalities. This will ensure that certain identified areas are viewed with regional perspective. By implementing a plan that contains both guidelines for future uses as well as agreed dispute mechanisms, urban and rural municipalities can reach agreement without negative impacts on either municipality. From the perspective of both municipalities, enhanced management of the land within the IDP area identified will prove advantageous for the long-term interests of the municipalities and their residents. DISCUSSION/ OPTIONS/ BENEFITS/ DISADVANTAGES: A proposed draft was created and the administration and the assigned Committee from both Kneehill County and the Town of Trochu have met to review and revise the proposed draft. The draft that has been attached is the outcome of this review. This draft notes the following objectives: • It provides a framework for collaboration when developing lands within the IDP area. • It promotes open communication between the Town, County, the public, and interested stakeholders. • It promotes respect for each other’s jurisdictional autonomy and integrity. • It provides a framework for the provision of services and infrastructure required for the joint planning area that demonstrates an equitable, efficient and proactive approach. • It is a guide to collaboratively plan for lands within the IDP area that will promote opportunities for residential, commercial, industrial and economic development while minimizing land use and environmental impacts. The next step in the process is to provide an opportunity for public comments and feedback. Landowners within the defined plan area have all been notified regarding the proposed IDP. Notifications for the public hearing were posted in the Three Hills Capital on June 5, 12, and 19, 2019. Notice was also posted on the Kneehill County website and Facebook page. Trochu held their public hearing on June 10, 2019.

The preparation of an Intermunicipal Development Plan (IDP) is to foster a collaborative planning approach which will work towards avoiding future land use conflicts for lands along the common border. This will ensure that certain identified areas are viewed with a regional perspective. By implementing a plan that contains both policies for future uses as well as agreed dispute mechanisms, urban and rural municipalities can reach agreement without negative impacts on either municipality. From the perspective of both municipalities, enhanced management of the land within the IDP Area, identified on the map as zones 1 and 2, will prove advantageous for the long-term interests of the municipalities and their residents. MUTUAL OBJECTIVES The two municipalities agree:  To develop an IDP framework for how the County and the Town will collaborate together in order to plan and develop lands contained within the IDP Area.  To promote open communication between the municipalities, the public, and interested stakeholders, and provide meaningful involvement and consultation.  To respect each other’s jurisdictional autonomy and integrity.  To provide a framework for the provision of services and infrastructure required for the IDP Area that demonstrates an equitable, efficient and proactive approach.  To utilize the IDP as a guide to collaboratively plan for lands within the IDP Area that will promote opportunities for residential, commercial, industrial and economic development while minimizing land use and environmental impacts. PURPOSE AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES This IDP has been prepared in accordance with the Municipal Government Act which encourages cooperation and coordination between neighbouring municipalities with regard to planning matters in the vicinity of their joint boundaries. The IDP creates a shared vision for future growth by establishing a long- term strategy balancing the interests of both municipalities. This IDP intends to promote ongoing coordination, collaboration and cooperation between the two municipalities by providing a framework to discuss planning matters that affect and influence one another. For the purposes of this process, the County and the Town agree to respect the following guiding principles:  Mutual respect and equity. 133 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 4  Cooperation, collaboration, communication and trust.  Coordinated, consistent and timely response.  Respect for environment and natural capital.  Public engagement and consultation.  Economic growth and development. PLAN AREA 1. Urban Fringe or Interface Area (Residential Uses)  This area is illustrated as Zone #1. These lands would best accommodate future residential development although those areas along Highway 21 could support highway commercial. (See Schedule 1) 2. Future Land Concept (Commercial and Industrial Uses)  These are identified as Zone #2, and are areas where different land uses meet and interact. These lands serve as a guide in locating future commercial and industrial development due to the proximity to highway access. These lands provide general locations for future land uses, however development constraints exist in these areas due to topographical features of the lands. (See Schedule 1) The Town and County, as per this Plan, shall strive to engage in effective dialogue when considering land use in the Plan Area, while still maintaining complete jurisdiction on lands within their own boundaries. The Town and County may collaborate and investigate methods of giving support to projects that may mutually benefit or enhance the quality of life of residents from both municipalities. This could be in the form of in-kind donations, materials, municipal letters of support, application for grants, or other more permanent arrangements upon mutual agreement. Both municipalities shall act as good neighbours with respect to Urban Fringe or Interface Areas and Future Land Concept Areas illustrated as Zone #1 and #2. Each will ensure future land use designations and interface boundaries are compatible and consistent with both jurisdictions’ goals and aspirations. Kneehill County will notify the Town of any proposals, applications, studies, or future plans for areas as illustrated in Zones #1 and #2 within the County boundary, and provide informative communication and invitations to respond. The Town will notify the County of any proposals, applications, studies, or future plans for areas as illustrated in Zones #1 and #2 within their Town boundary and provide informative communication and invitations to respond. Where an intermunicipal referral is required by legislation or policies contained in this Plan, both municipalities agree to share the mailing address and property ownership information for circulation purposes with the adjacent municipality, and where applicable, the municipality’s processing agency. All subdivision and redesignation applications for lands within the identified Plan Areas shall be referred to the other municipality for comment prior to a decision being rendered. 134 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 5 All discretionary use applications within the identified Plan Areas shall be referred to the other municipality for comment prior to a decision being rendered. As per Section 636(1)(d) of the Municipal Government Act, notification to the Town or County will be circulated when changes to either Municipal Development Plan are being proposed. The Town or County will have an opportunity to provide comments regarding the proposed changes. POLICIES Managing Growth – IDP policies must be flexible enough to permit all reasonable developments in a contiguous manner. The IDP has a goal to facilitate orderly, efficient and environmentally sound development compatible with the character and physical setting of the IDP Area while minimizing conflicts between agricultural and urban land uses.  Future development shall be planned in accordance with the zones identified in the IDP Area map. Land uses within the current Town boundary shall be guided by the Town’s Municipal Development Plan and minor amendments to the MDP shall not require an amendment to the IDP. Land uses within the current County boundary shall be guided by the County’s Municipal Development Plan, and minor amendments to the MDP shall not require an amendment to the IDP.  The Town and County shall endeavour to implement cost-sharing arrangements supporting an equitable distribution of costs associated with increased growth and development in the Joint IDP Areas.  Both municipalities shall provide a variety of development opportunities within their jurisdiction.  Future development in proximity to Highway 21 and 585 shall be planned in consultation with Alberta Transportation. Plan Area Environment – The natural environment surrounding the Town does not respect municipal boundaries. Water courses, hills, soil conditions and vegetation intermingle across urban and rural boundaries as well as the Plan boundary. (See Schedule 2)  Both municipalities shall recognize the value of the natural environment and its contribution to quality of life.  Proposed development in areas that are prone to erosion, landslides, or any other natural hazards, as well as proposed development in proximity to steep or unstable slopes will be subject to requirements as identified in subject Land Use Bylaws to the satisfaction of the approving authority.  Applicants of a redesignation, subdivision or development on lands adjacent to a water course shall be required to obtain confirmation of the 1:100-year flood level on the affected lands. Applicants may also be required to provide an 135 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 6 environmental review prepared by a qualified professional where an environmentally sensitive feature is present on the affected lands as identified by the Province of Alberta. Transportation Systems – The Town and the County recognize the importance of establishing and creating a continuous network of roads within the Plan Area in order to efficiently manage future growth.  Subdivision and development proposals located in the IDP Area must address linkages between the two municipalities to accommodate layout, setbacks, and road uses to ensure orderly and efficient transition to urban densities.  Subdivision and development decisions within the IDP Area will have regard for future road networks. Each municipality shall be notified of any subdivision or development proposal in the other municipality that will result in access being required from a road under its control or management.  Accounting for the location of existing development, topography and other site specific considerations, there may be circumstances where road alignments will need to be altered in responding to the needs of subdivision or development. Economic and Joint Development – Planning future growth may raise opportunities in the IDP Area for mutually beneficial economic development and joint development opportunities, and these may arise in the form of shared servicing upgrades or community based facilities.  Both municipalities shall work together to ensure a strong, stable and diversified local and regional economy.  The Town and County shall ensure the IDP provides a suitable inventory of lands for commercial and industrial development.  The Town and County shall work together to explore areas of mutual interest where agreements can be considered to ensure that development opportunities will be to the benefit of both municipalities. Agricultural Uses – Agricultural uses represent the largest land use category of the IDP. The IDP strives to maintain the importance of agriculture by directing future growth in a compact, contiguous manner than minimizes intrusions into agriculture operations. This will ensure agricultural operations continue to operate and remain a significant contributor to the local economy.  Existing agriculture areas shall continue to be used for agricultural activities as provided for in the County’s Municipal Development Plan and Land Use Bylaw, unless a landowner proposes to convert agricultural lands to another opportunity provided for in the IDP.  When making decisions regarding development on or adjacent to agricultural lands, both municipalities shall give consideration for agricultural operators to pursue normal activities without interference or restriction based on their impact on adjacent uses. 136 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 7 Residential Uses (Zone #1) – These areas are best suited for future residential developments, and are sited to reduce conflicts between residential and non-residential land uses. A balanced range of housing opportunities compatible with market preferences will be encouraged considering the needs of existing and proposed adjacent land uses. To ensure that the areas are preserved for future urban growth, and future integration and the urban fabric is not compromised, the following development conditions shall apply, unless otherwise agreed to by the Town and County:  An urban residential development proposal may be accompanied by an application for annexation to the Town.  A prerequisite to a multi-lot subdivision or development will be the preparation of an Outline Plan or Area Structure Plan to the Town and County’s satisfaction to ensure that issues relating to future land use, servicing transitional treatments and phasing are addressed in a manner that ensures compatibility with existing or proposed development.  Should the proposed subdivision or development occupy only a portion of the quarter section, the Area Structure Plan or Outline Plan shall describe what is proposed for the ultimate build-out of the lands and how the proposed development will be integrated into the Town upon annexation.  Water and sanitary sewer may be extended from the Town. Development levies or equivalent contributions shall be collected from the benefiting developments so that the cost of these extensions does not directly impact existing residents of the Town or County.  Best management practices for storm water management shall be required in accordance with Alberta Environment and Parks regulations.  Other infrastructure standards shall be negotiated with the Town to ensure that adequate standard for urban residential development are met.  Any residential development proposed adjacent to a watercourse or wetland or hazard lands may require a geotechnical study and environmental review to confirm the site is suitable for the intended use and describe the potential impacts of the development and the extent to which these impacts may be mitigated. Commercial and Industrial Uses (Zone #2) – These areas are best suited for commercial and industrial development, and would provide a stronger level of certainty for prospective developers. Promoting a well-planned commercial and industrial development will support the creation of a strong and diversified economy, expanding the availability of employment opportunities and contributing to a balanced municipal assessment base.  Both municipalities shall work together to maximize the advantages of commercial and industrial opportunities potentially offered by the proximity to Highways 21 and 585.  A prerequisite to multi-lot subdivision and development will be the preparation of an Outline Plan or an Area Structure Plan to the Town and County’s satisfaction to ensure that issues relating to 137 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 8 future land use, servicing transitional treatments and phasing are addressed in a manner that ensures compatibility with existing or proposed development within the Town.  Water and sanitary sewer may be extended from the Town. Development levies or equivalent contributions shall be collected from the benefiting developments so that the cost of these extensions does not directly impact existing residents of the Town or County.  Best management practices for storm water management shall be required in accordance with Alberta Environment and Parks regulations.  Buffers or similar mechanisms to mitigate potential conflict between commercial/industrial, agricultural and other uses shall be used where needed.  Any commercial/industrial development proposed adjacent to a watercourse or wetland or hazard lands may require a geotechnical study and an environmental review to confirm the site is suitable for the intended use and describe the potential impacts of the development and the extent to which these impacts may be mitigated. Plan Review  The implementation of this Plan is intended to be an ongoing process to ensure it is maintained and remains applicable. A committee with joint representation will ensure continued dialogue and cooperation, as the purpose of this committee is to promote active cooperation and conflict resolution through a consensus-based approach.  For the purposes of administering the monitoring of the IDP, the Town and County will establish the Intermunicipal Development Plan Committee (the Committee) comprised of an even number of members of Council from both the Town and the County. Each municipality may appoint an alternate Committee member in the event a regular member cannot attend a scheduled meeting. Alternate Committee members shall have standing.  The IDP will be formally reviewed by this Committee once every three years, beginning in 2019 in order to confirm or recommend amendments of any particular policy contained herein. The committee will prepare recommendations for consideration by the Municipal Councils. Members of the Committee shall be appointed by their respective Councils at their Organizational Meeting. If a Council wishes to appoint a new member to the Committee (including the alternate), they must do so by motion of Council at a regular Council meeting. The municipalities shall notify one another upon appointing members and alternate members to the Committee. 138 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 9 Functions of the Committee The Town and the County agree that the main functions of the Committee are to:  Create a forum for dialogue on issues of common interest and concern;  Address concerns regarding the policies of the Plan;  Address proposed amendments to the Plan;  Engage in resolving any conflicts or disputes which arise from this Plan – both municipalities will equally share costs associated with using outside assistance to resolve a dispute; and  Address any other land use issues deemed appropriate, but which are not explicitly identified in the Plan.  Meetings of the Committee shall be held on an “as needed basis”, or at the request of either municipality. Committee meetings should be held as soon as possible if any conflict arises, or if any matter is brought before it.  The municipality that called the meeting of the Committee shall host and chair the meeting and is responsible for preparing and distributing agendas and minutes.  Both Councils agree the Committee is not a decision making body and that the Committee shall issue a written response in the form of comments and/or recommendations to the appropriate decision making body. Annexation  The County recognizes and agrees that the Town will need additional land to grow and will support annexations that will provide for 30-40 years of projected growth within the boundaries of the Town.  The annexation process may be initiated by the Town in accordance with the requirements of the Municipal Government Act.  The Town and County will endeavour to reach an intermunicipal agreement on the annexation prior to submitting the annexation to the Municipal Government Board. Dispute Resolution The policies of this Plan are designed to be general in nature, ensuring that both the Town and County maintain jurisdiction over the decisions made within their borders. It is anticipated that by following the process below, any disputes or conflicts that may arise can first be avoided, and where necessary, settled 139 2019.06.25 Amended Council Package 10 at the local level. Only in those circumstances where a resolution cannot be achieved locally would the dispute be referred to outside parties. It is important to avoid dispute by ensuring the Plan is adhered to as adopted, including full circulation of any permit or application that may affect the municipality as required in the Plan and prompt enforcement of the Plan policies. The Town and County agree that disputes relating to the IDP shall be restricted to the following:  Lack of agreement on proposed amendments to the plan  Lack of agreement on any proposed statutory plan, land use bylaw or amendment to either located within or affecting the Intermunicipal Development Plan Area  Lack of agreement on an interpretation of this plan Dispute Resolution Process  The formal dispute resolution process may only be initiated by the Town or County Councils.  Identification of a dispute and the desire to go through the dispute resolution process may occur at any time regarding a dispute matter and may only occur within 30 calendar days of a decision made pursuant to the above noted areas that may be disputed. Once either municipality has received written notice of a dispute, the dispute resolution process must be started within 15 calendar days of the date the written notice was received, unless both Chief Administrative Officers agree otherwise.  In the event the dispute resolution process is initiated, the municipality having authority over the matter shall not give any further approval in any way until the dispute has been resolved or the mediation process has been concluded.  The process shall be as follows: o Administrative Review – the Chief Administrative Officers of both municipalities will meet in an attempt to resolve the issue first. Failing resolution, the dispute will then be referred to the Intermunicipal Planning Committee. o Intermunicipal Planning Committee Review – the Committee will convene to consider and attempt to resolve the dispute. In the event a resolution is not achieved by the 30th day following the first meeting of the Intermunicipal Planning Committee, either municipality may refer the dispute to mediation. o Mediation – the services of an independent mediator will be retained, with the mediator to present a written recommendation to both Councils. The costs of mediation shall be shared equally between the Town and County. o Municipal Government Board – In the event the mediation process does not resolve the dispute, the initiating municipality may proceed to adopt the bylaw and in accordance with the Municipal Government Act, the other municipality will have the right to appeal to the Municipal Government Board.
