Subject: Budget Pre-authorization – Range Road 251 ACP Overlay
Meeting Date: Tuesday, October 25, 2022
Prepared By: Mike Ziehr, Director of Infrastructure
Presented By: Mike Ziehr, Director of Infrastructure
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
That Council approve the expenditure of up to $3,200,000.00 for the design and construction of an
Asphalt Pavement Overlay on Range Road 25-1 from Highway 27 to Highway 583, to be funded
from the MSI Capital Grant.

RELEVANT LEGISLATION:
Provincial (cite)- Not applicable
Council Bylaw/Policy (cite)- Not applicable
BACKGROUND/PROPOSAL:
The Asphalt Concrete Pavement (ACP) overlay of Range Road 25-1 has been proposed to be completed
in 2023. To obtain preferential pricing and secure experienced contractors, administration is requesting
an advanced authorization of this project prior to the final 2023 Kneehill County budget being approved.
DISCUSSION/OPTIONS/BENEFITS/DISADVANTAGES/OTHER CONSIDERATIONS:
Range Road 25-1 is located west of Three Hills. This highly travelled road has a current estimated traffic
count of approximately 160-180 vehicles per day and is designated as an Arterial Road within Kneehill
County’s road classification. The installation of an ACP overlay will provide a mainly ban free structure
that will accommodate more industry and agricultural traffic and provide a ban free route from Highway 27
to Hwy 583.
Administration has been made aware that a large number of construction and paving projects will be
released for tender by Alberta Transportation in the coming months. By releasing this project for bids
earlier in the season allows for the County to take advantage of increased competition between
contractors and historically lower costs as a result.
FINANCIAL & STAFFING IMPLICATIONS:
This project is expected to be funded primarily from Kneehill County’s MSI Capital grant. The project
costing in the recommended motion allows for some inflationary increases due to the changing oil market.

BACKGROUND/PROPOSAL:
KNE200148 is a subdivision from 2020 relating to a portion of the NW 8-33-23 W4M.
Landowners are given a year from the date of approval in which to meet the conditions of approval. If the
conditions are met, the Subdivision Approving Authority is required to endorse the subdivision to allow
registration at Land Titles. The first extension for this file was granted by Council until October 24th, 2022.
The landowner is applying for a second extension, to allow for the response from Alberta Environment
regarding the dugout for watering.
There are multiple factors involved with this specific subdivision. A different Engineering firm was
employed to take over the file. Additional Environmental Studies have been done to ensure the land can
be used for the proposed use in the future. The applicant is also changing the current septic system in
place to allow for more land to be subdivided out in the process.
Due to the length of time required for a response from Alberta Environment and the changes in Provincial
Government and the current season, an extension for this subdivision file is required for the applicant to
finalize the conditions set out in the approval on October 22, 2020.
A typical extension is granted for one year, in this case the extension would be granted for another year
until October 23, 2023 (First extension expired October 22, 2022; second extension is asking for Monday,
October 23, 2023, as the 22nd of October 2023 falls on a Sunday). This would be the final extension
allowed. If at the date of the second extension, KNE200148 is not finalized, a new subdivision application
will be required and process to start from the beginning.

of time an extension can be granted for.
Landowners – or their agents – may make requests for an extension of the timeframes from the council.
Requests for extensions to subdivision approvals can only be issued by the Council of the approving
authority.

Prepared By: Deanna Keiver, Planning & Development Officer
Presented By: Deanna Keiver, Planning & Development Officer
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
1. Council give First Reading of Bylaw 1870 to pursue the road closure of the undeveloped
road allowance Adjacent the West Half of Section 25-33-25 W4.
2. Council set a public hearing for November 15, 2022 at 9:00 a.m. as per Section 22 and 230

Provincial (cite)-
Municipal Government Act Section 22 Road Closure
Municipal Government Act Section 230 Public Hearings
Council Bylaw/Policy (cite)- N/A
BACKGROUND/PROPOSAL:
Lazy H Hastie Ranch Ltd, has approached the County in their desire to purchase the undeveloped road
allowance on the west side of the West Half of Section 25-33-25 W4. By closing the undeveloped road
allowance and ultimately purchasing the land, it would allow the landowner access to his land.
The undeveloped road allowance will never be developed into a road as Range Road 25-1 was diverted
around the Three Hills Creek. This portion of road is known as the Hastie North Project and was recently
resurfaced in 2021. This road has a 100 foot right of way. Closure of the proposed undeveloped road
allowance will not interfere with legal access to any other parcels.
Should Council and subsequently the Minister of Transportation approve the closure, it would be
requested of the applicant to survey, purchase and consolidate the portion of the road allowance into the
Northwest and Southwest quarters lying east of the undeveloped road allowance. The approximate
acreage of the undeveloped road allowance is 5.84 acres. The consolidation will increase the acreage of
the Northwest quarter to 161.37 +/- acres and the Southwest quarter to 163.07 +/- acres.
Council has recently approved a similar situation west of Linden.

Version: 2022-02
DISCUSSION/OPTIONS/BENEFITS/DISADVANTAGES/OTHER CONSIDERATIONS:
Road Closures are governed by the Municipal Government Act Section 22, which states that a road must
be closed by bylaw, must be advertised and must be approved by the Minister of Transportation prior to
receiving second reading.
Notices will be sent to adjacent landowners within a mile and referral agencies. Referral agencies notified
include internal Kneehill County Departments. This process is similar to a Public Hearing for a Land Use
Bylaw Amendment. A person who claims to be deemed affected must be given an opportunity to be
heard by Council.
FINANCIAL & STAFFING IMPLICATIONS:
Costs to the applicant will be as follows:
1. Application fee as set out by Council ($1,000.00)
2. All costs associated with Transfer of Land (Survey, Transfer Documents, Registration etc.)
3. Appraisal Fee (Kneehill County will request an appraisal from our Assessment Department. It will
be up to the Applicant to use Kneehill County’s value or hire an outside appraiser.)
4. Purchase cost of road allowance.
Costs to the County will include referrals, advertisements, and hosting public hearing. Once the
undeveloped road allowance has been consolidated and registered with Land Titles, there will be no
ongoing annual operating costs.

BACKGROUND/PROPOSAL:
As a way to provide good governance, Kneehill County Administration has been actively reviewing the
Bylaw database to ensure the Bylaws that are in place are in order and comply with current legislation.
Kneehill County’s Bylaw database consist of 1958 Bylaws. Upon comprehensive review of the bylaw
database it has been discovered that more than 90 bylaws are obsolete or redundant. Theses bylaws
largely fall into one of four categories:
1. Bylaws that were created for a very specific purpose and once acted upon, have no further effect
or are no longer required;
2. Bylaws that have been superceded by a change in overarching legislation or by another bylaw;
3. Bylaws that were created for a specific purpose or situation that no longer exists; or
4. Bylaws that were created for a specified time period, which has now elapsed.
In the next couple of months, Administration will bring around 10 bylaws per meeting for repealing
Once the review has been completed and the obsolete bylaws have been removed, a four- year review
cycle will be created for the current bylaws, just like we do for our policies we have in place.

BACKGROUND/PROPOSAL:
The Parkland Institute’s Fall Conference, Doing Democracy Better, takes place November 18-20, 2022 on
the University of Alberta Campus.
DISCUSSION/OPTIONS/BENEFITS/DISADVANTAGES/OTHER CONSIDERATIONS:
The Parkland Institute’s Fall Conference is not on the approved list of conferences that Councillors are
automatically approved for.
Councillor McGhee would like to attend this conference and in order for her to get reimbursed for this
conference a resolution from Council will need to be made.
This year’s conference is titled “Doing Democracy Better – Challenging the Politics of Fear and
Resentment”
The following information has been taken from the Parkland Institute’s Website:
Alberta is facing an election in the coming months that will shape our economic and political
future. It comes at a time when volatile right-wing populism and anti-science sentiment, feeding
on the fear and anger of people, are on the rise in many countries, including Canada. At the same
time, the politics of austerity continue to erode public services and social supports, leading to
even greater inequality and social unrest.
It is more important than ever that we ensure our democratic institutions remain both vibrant and
resilient. We need a better, reinvigorated form of democracy: one that is rooted more firmly in
2022.10.25 Council Package

equity and equality. Doing democracy better will require looking at complex problems in new
ways and expanding our vision of what democracy can be.
We need to challenge the populist forces threatening to undermine democracy, and we need to
ensure the widest possible diversity of voices is heard. Only then will we be able to offer better
alternatives and a compelling vision of the future–one that strengthens democracy for all citizens.
Parkland Institute’s 26th annual fall conference will do a deep dive into how right-wing populism,
austerity, and science denial are impacting how we do democracy, and hear from academics,
activists, and experts who are doing the work to reclaim it.
Further information regarding the conference can be found at: Schedule - Parkland Fall Conference 2020
