tracked down. The surplus after the February 8 meeting was supposed to be approximately $ 10,000.00.

To: Gene Kiviaho

Members of Council
From: Lavinia Henderson
Date: April 22, 2005
Issue: Funding Bylaws - Linden North Water Service Area
Background: Council postponed further discussion on the Funding Bylaws for the Kneehill
County Regional Water Service Areas at the recommendation of Administration
at the April 12, 2005 Regular Meeting, to provide for the incorporation of
changes to the bylaws so the levies related only to the Linden North Phase 1
Water Service Area and non-residential properties.
Discussion: The changes have been incorporated into the levy bylaws. Council consensus
was to have reserve funds front the cost of the Linden North Phase 1 project. An
interim borrowing bylaw is not required, but a motion should be passed to this
effect.

Bylaw No. 1505 is for the connection fee. This draft provides for incentives for
those who will have a curb stop to sign up as soon as possible. The first is for a
five month period and is for $ 4,000.00. The second is for the next block of five
months and is for $ 5,000.00. After March 3, 2006 there will be no reduction.
From April 1, 2006 those who will be receiving a curb stop may pay the full fee
up front or have the rate added to their taxes over 15 years. Any difference
between the reduced fees collected and the full service price can be covered off
with the
$ 150,000.00 which was provided as the County's share of the project within the
2005 budget. Section 5 can be removed should Council prefer not to offer
incentives for signing up as soon as possible. The correct number of service
connections is required for this bylaw.
Bylaw 1508 is for the annual levy for the balance of the Linden North Phase 1
Water Service Area. This will have to be passed each year until the reserve is

Reeve Woods
Members of Council
FROM: Rob Mayhew
DATE: April 21, 2005
Issue: Approach Policies # 13-15-2, # 13-15-3 and #13-15-4
Background
Requests for approaches from ratepayers. Review the number of
approaches allowed in other Counties.
Discussion
Sight distance and number of approaches are felt to be reasonable. I find
no reason to change these policies.
Following are four Counties that were surveyed for their Policies on the
number of approaches:
Paintearth - "will install one (1) approach and, if necessary, one (1)
culvert per one-half mile, at no cost to the landowner.
Starland - "shall provide one access approach to every property for each
half mile of "developed road allowance".
Stettler - "at time of road construction the County will install one (1)
approach and, if necessary, one (1) culvert per one-half mile. Any request
for additional approach and/or culvert installation in one-half mile may be
approved at the discretion of the Public Works Supervisor or his
designate."
Wheatland - unlimited but are presently reviewing policies with the
increase in oil activity in the area.
Financial Implications
None
Recommendation
That Council confirms County's Appoach Policies #13-15-2, # 13-15-3
and # 13-15-4.

Council Agenda Item #7(a) i)
To: Reeve and Members of Council
From: Planning and Development
Date: April 5, 2005
1.0 ISSUE
As the current planning and development fee policy has some issues associated with it, and is
somewhat out-of-date, planning Staff would like to present, to Council, a new fee policy for their
consideration.
2.0 DISCUSSION
Having compared Kneehill County's planning and development fee policy with the fee policy
of at least 8 other rural municipalities, and having considered the County's current policy in
light of on-going issues with the policy, changes in application processing, rising municipal
costs, etc., Staff will recommend some fairly comprehensive, although positive, changes. Each
major component of the planning and development fee schedule (i.e. development, subdivision
and LUB amendment fees) will be addressed separately. For each component, a cross-municipal
comparison will be presented first, followed by a recommendation. A summary of the
recommendations will conclude the report.
2.1 Subdivision Fees
MUNICIPALITY FEE
Kneehill County • First parcel out of quarter = $450.00 + $300.00 endorsement.
• Second or more parcel = $750.00 + $300.00 endorsement per lot.
Red Deer County • $400.00 + $400.00 endorsement
• Multiple parcels = $400.00 + $100.00 per lot + $400.00
endorsement + $100 00 per lot.
Lacombe County • First parcel out = $500.00 + $250.00 endorsement.
• Multiple parcels = $250.00 per lot + $500.00 endorsement.
Mountain View • First parcel out = $500.00 + $300.00 endorsement.
• Multiple parcels = $750.00 per lot + $300.00 per lot endorsement.
MD of Rocky View • First parcel out = $450.00 + $275.00.
• Multiple parcel = $500.00 per lot for first 4 lots. For multiple lots
over 4 lots = $250.00 per parcel.
• Endorsement = $275 00 per lot for first 10 lots, $175.00 per lot for
• more than 10 lots.
Strathcona County • First parcel out = $600.00 + $300.00 endorsement.
• Multiple parcels = $600.00 for first + $150.00 per lot. Endorsement
= $300.00 per lot.
Parkland County • First parcel out = $100.00 + $450.00 endorsement.
• Multiple parcels = $300.00 for application + $200.00 per parcel.
Endorsement = $200 00 per parcel.
32
Summary
• For first parcel out the average total fee (application + endorsement) is, approximately,
$800.00.
• For multiple lot subdivisions, the average application fee is approximately $200.00 per parcel
(plus a fee for the application or first parcel).
• For multiple lot subdivisions, the average endorsement fee is $200.00 per lot.
Discussion
Kneehill County's fee for "first parcel out" subdivisions is slightly lower than average. Kneehill
County calculates fees for multiple lot subdivision applications different than most other
municipalities by having a set application fee, as opposed to a fee based on the number of lots
being applied for.
Recommendation
1. That, for subdivision applications involving the creation of a single additional parcel, the
County charge $500.00 for the application and $300.00 for the endorsement. This is an
increase of $50.00 (to the application fee).
2. That, for subdivision applications involving the creation of 2 or more additional lots or
parcels, the County charge $500.00 for the first lot plus $200.00 per lot, and an endorsement
fee of $200.00 per lot.
Example - Country Residential Subdivision consisting of 5 proposed lots.
0 Current fee
$750.00 (straight application fee) + $300.00 endorsement fee per lot = $2,250.00.
Proposed fee
$500.00 for first lot + $200.00 for each additional lot ($500.00 + $200.00 x 4) +
$200.00 endorsement fee per lot ($200.00 x 5) = $2,300.00.

• Institutional = $500.00
• Natural Resource Extraction = $1000.00
• Tele-towers = $500.00
• Intensive AG uses = $500.00
Summary
The fee amounts and method of calculation vary amongst municipalities.
Discussion
The current method employed by Kneehill County is to charge a base fee of $20.00 for Permitted
Uses and $40.00 for Discretionary Uses plus $2.00/$1,000.00 of the value of the proposed
structure. This method has at least two problems associated with it:
1. The method is susceptible to abuse, as some developers may provide a spurious value in
order to pay less for the application fee.
2. The value of a proposed structure does not necessarily reflect that amount of work involved
in processing an application. For instance, the same amount of time is involved for
processing an application associated with a $100,000.00 home as is required for a
$150,000.00 home.
For commercial and industrial development, it may be more appropriate to apply a fee that is
based on the size of the proposed development, as commercial and industrial developments
may differ, substantially, in terms of size and potential impact on the environment and
neighboring landowners. It is common, amongst the municipalities studied, to charge a fee for
commercial and industrial based on the proposed square footage of the structures, while
applying a set fee for all other development types.

Lethbridge County • Land Use amendment (text amendment or redistricting), ASP, ARP
$1,000
MD of Willlow Creek • LUB amendment = $1,000.00
Summary
Most municipalities studied charge, as a minimum, $1,000.00 for an amendment to a LUB (the
exceptions are: Red Deer County [$700.00 including ad fee], Kneehill County and Mountain
® View [$300.00-$400.00 for first parcel]). Many municipalities, including Kneehill County,
charge a per lot fee if the redesignation is to allow for the subdivision of multiple new lots.
Many charge a straight fee irrespective of the number of lots to be created.
Discussion
Kneehill County's minimum charge is $300.00, and this is much lower than the average
minimum charge. It is also incongruous with the County's minimum subdivision fee, as,
37
E
approximately, the same amount of time is required to process each type of application.
Although, more time is, generally, required to process a multi-lot subdivision application.
Many municipalities (i.e. Red Deer County) charge, in addition to a base fee, an advertising fee,
and this fee differs with the amount of text included in the advertisement (i.e. in Red Deer
County, applications to amend the text of a LUB costs more than a redistricting application
because much more text is associated with the newspaper advertisement). As Kneehill County's
adverting fee is a fixed annual amount, the amount of text in an ad does not affect advertising
costs.
Recommendation
1. For all redistricting applications, the fee shall be $800.00.
2. For a textual amendment or review of an ASP or LUB, the fee shall be $2000.00 (this
is the same as current fee).

From: Deanna Keiver
Date: April 26, 2005
• Issue: Fee Schedule for Safety Permits
Background: Kneehill County's 3 year contract expired with IJD Inspection Services on
January 1, 2005. The contract was renewed for another 3 years, however at that time the
current fee schedule was also reviewed and adjusted slightly. As a result of the new
contract fees with IJD, a revised fee policy is presented for Council's consideration,
which will, in the future, be reviewed when the rest of the County's fees are reviewed.
Discussion: The fee schedule is attached. Those fees in normal or italics font have had
no changes and remain the same as they have the previous 3 years. (The italics are minor
alterations that have been made in the last 3 years from the original fee schedule
approved December 12, 2001.) The fees that are bolded are the ones that have been
changed or added in the new 2005 proposal.
The only disciplines that changed were the gas, plumbing, and private sewage, whereby a
fee was added for permits taken out by homeowners. The inspector's reasoning for this
was that more inspections and time is required on these permits. New fees were also
developed for modular and move on homes, with and without basements, as these types
of developments are becoming more common.
No other fee schedules were investigated at this time, as there were only minor changes
made. When the original fee schedule was approved in 2001, the fees were similar to
other fees in other municipalities at that time.
As of April 1, 2005, the Safety Code Council increased their levies. Previously these
were $3.00 per gas, plumbing, electrical, and private sewage permit, and $5.00 for a
building permit. They now are $4.00 or 3.5% of the permit fee, whichever is greater up
to a maximum of $500.00.
Recommendation: That Council approve the 2005 Fee Schedule for Safety Permits
effective May 1, 2005.

Council Agenda Item #7(b)
To: Reeve and Members of Council
From: Planning and Development
Date: April 26, 2005
Issue
Elvin Haller is requesting that Council waive the fees associated with his proposed
subdivision application.
Background
On November 24, 2004, the County MPC approved a "first parcel out" subdivision for
Mr. Haller. Mr. Haller would now like to alter the configuration of the approved
subdivision by reconfiguring one of the property lines of the approved acreage so
that it goes around a farm building, which is located on the periphery of the acreage,
thus leaving the building within the parent parcel. Mr. Haller claims that this is what
his original intent was, and that the Planner misrepresented him at the MPC meeting.
Discussion
The approved configuration was the result of the decision of the MPC and dialog
between Staff and the subdivision applicant. As verbally discussed, the Applicant
agreed to the approved configuration as a second and less desired option. As agreed,
although the Applicant preferred to keep one of the farm buildings with the parent
parcel, he would accept a different configuration where the subject building was included
with the proposed acreage. Furthermore, the Applicant had an opportunity to appeal the
decision, but did not do so.
Although, if submitted, the application may be similar to the original, a great deal of Staff
time will be required to process the application.
Recommendation:
That Council reject the request by Mr. Haller to have fees waived for his new
subdivision application.

Road Upgrade Policy Council Agenda Item #7(c)
To: Reeve and Members of Council
From: Planning and Development
Date: April 26, 2005
Issue
Additions to County "Road Upgrade Policy" - Policy #5-13 (policy is attached).
Background
Staff have drafted a contractual agreement, which outlines the terms and conditions associated
with the upgrading of a County road allowance by a private developer. The County's legal
consultants have reviewed the draft agreement and have offered some additions and changes.
These provisions recommended by the legal consultant are not reflected in the current policy.
Therefore, Staff suggest that Council consider adding the following changes to Policy #5-13.
Attached, is a copy of a draft agreement, as recommended by Staff. Staff suggest that Council
consider accepting this agreement as a template, which may be used to address similar situations.
Discussion
As liability issues may result from a situation where a private developer, or his employees,
injure themselves while working on a County road allowance, the County's legal consultant
suggests that the County add, to the contractual agreement, the following:
1. An indemnifier or "save harmless" clause.
2. An obligation of the developer to obtain a policy of liability insurance, with coverage in an
amount of not less than $2,000,000.00, and naming the County as the insured party.
• 3. A provision stating that the Developer shall comply with all requirements of the Workers'
Compensation Act.
Recommendation:
That Council amend policy #5-13 by changing Policy Guideline #2 to the following:
At the time of subdivision or development approval, whichever comes first, the Developer will
enter into a Development Agreement whereby a caveat will be attached to the title outlining
the Developer's and County's responsibility of the upgrade of the road. The agreement will
include the following provisions:
• An indemnifier or "save harmless" clause.
• An obligation of the developer to obtain a policy of liability insurance, with coverage in an
amount of not less than $2,000,000.00, and naming the County as the insured party.
• A provision stating that the Developer shall comply with all requirements of the Workers'
Compensation Act.
Prior to subdivision or development approval, Council approval will be required for the upgrade
• of the road.
2. That Council approve the attached agreement, which may be used in conjunction with
Policy #5-13.

Council Agenda Item #7(d)
To: Reeve Woods
Members of Council
From: Planning and Development
Date: April 26, 2005
W,
do I. Background
On October 12, 2004, Council gave first reading to a proposed bylaw amendment to
redesignate 4 acres of the NE quarter of section 12, 31, 26, W4, from the Agricultural
district to Country Residential (CR). The purpose of the redesignation is to allow for
the creation of a new parcel and a single detached dwelling, which is to be serviced by an
on-site water well and septic field system. As the proposed dwelling site is in the
same quarter as the Hamlet of Sunnyslope, where there are many existing water wells
and sewage field systems, it was the recommendation of Staff that Council withhold
making a decision until the Proponent provided the following information:
1. Proof that there is adequate groundwater supply. (The Province of Alberta defines
adequate groundwater supply as the ability of a well to .provide a long-term supply
of 1,250 cubic meters of water per year without depriving other existing users from
obtaining that same amount.)
0 2. Proof that the soil conditions and topography of the site are suitable for an on-site
sewage field system.
The aforementioned requirements stem from both the LUB and the MDP. It is stated
within section 4.2.1 (f) of the MDP that, for CR lots, "there is an adequate supply of
potable water on the site, and soil and water table conditions on each lot are satisfactory
for private servicing".
Council tabled the issue, and requested that the Proponent submit proof that the subject
property is capable of supporting a long-term supply of potable water, as well as a septic
field system.
II. Discussion
The Proponent has provided new information relating to water and sewer servicing.
Regarding the water issue, it appears that the Proponent did their own research.
Information was submitted to Staff relating to water yields of adjacent wells, as well as
water quality, as determined by the University of Calgary Centre for Toxicology. The
Proponent concludes that there is adequate groundwater supply. Regarding the sewer
issue, the Proponent submitted a letter from a private excavating contractor. In that
letter, the contractor indicated that the site is suitable for an on-site septic field system.
However, contrary to the direction provided by Planning Staff, the Proponent has not
provided any information supplied by, or supported by, a professional qualified engineer.
In the document Draft Environmental Guidelines for the Subdivision of Land, by AB
60
0
Environment, it is recommended that proof of a site's suitability for on-site water
and sewer should be supplied by a standing member of the Association of
Professional Engineers, Geologist and Geophysicist of Alberta (APEGGA). Staff
suggest that this is important in order to ensure that all information is reliable in terms
of quality of information and veracity, whereas information from the Proponent, or
private contractor, may be biased.
Staff would also like to note that the Province, in conjunction with the AAMDC,
recently provided a new document relating to on-site sewage systems and the types
® of studies municipalities should expect when considering applications involving
proposed on-site systems. According to that document, when a municipality is
considering a development or subdivision where a proposed on-site sewage system is to
be used, and there are already more than 4 parcels on the same quarter, the municipality
should expect a detailed report, which includes a soil test, but not necessarily a
percolation test. (Excerpt form the aforementioned document is attached.)
III. Recommendation
That Council deny the request to redesignate the subject 4 acre parcel of the NE quarter
of section 12, 31, 26, W4, from the Agricultural district to Country Residential (CR).
Or,
That Council withhold a third reading until the Proponent has submitted proof from a
qualified engineer (member of APEGGA) that the proposed site is suitable in terms of
long-term on-site water supply, and has appropriate soil conditions for an on-site septic
field system. Any report relating to a proposed on-site sewage field system must
follow the "Level 2 Assessment" requirements, as outlined in the document: Model
Process Reference Document To Guide Municipal Consideration of Subdivisions and
Development Using Private Sewage Systems. (AB Municipal Affairs and AAMDC -
2004). Regarding water supply, proof may be in the form of either a "desk top study",
which uses existing well data, or a test well.

B. LEVEL 2 ASSESSMENT
This level of assessment is for a subdivision where one additional parcel is created and
where parcel size is relatively small and/or density exceeds 4 parcels within the
surrounding 160 acres. Example: a 10-acre parcel is divided into two 5-acre parcels.
Variations (requiring a higher level of assessment) to a Level Three Assessment for this
type of development should be applied where:
There is no available reserve area to replace a failed system;
The parcel is in a sensitive area due to surface water source or unconfined
aquifers, or;
¦ The proposed use is expected to generate more than 1250 gallons (5.68 cubic
metres) of sewage per day
¦ The initial report or available information suggests difficult site soil or
hydrogeological conditions

Benefits provided from the Level Two Assessment
• Reduces occurrence of unexpected requirements having to be met by owner
of parcels - i.e. open discharge not allowed.
• Identifies opportunities for smaller parcel sizes.
• A clear site assessment provided by the proponent reduces time and
resources required by municipality in considering the subdivision proposal.
• Money and resources expended for the assessment will benefit the owner at
• the time of development and when designing the sewage system.
• Minimizes the chance an unplanned layout of the development will severely
limit choices in designing and locating a system.
• Minimize possible impact(s) on adjoining property, e.g. encroaching on a
neighboring well or PSTS system.
Key information obtained from a Level 2 Assessment
• Limitations on site due to parcel size;
• Suitable and unsuitable system types for the parcel
• Expected sewage volume used in assessment consideration
• Limiting soil or groundwater conditions
• Topographic limitations
• General suitability type of parcel for PSTS installation (see Model Process Tool #8**)
• Recommended location for the proposed system based on soil/site assessment

Issue
Kneehill Regional Emergency Management Agency (KREMA)
Background
There were several suggestions arising from the Community Summit held in February with
respect to regional protective services. Suggestions included regional partnership agreements;
regional training; regional emergency response exercises; development of a regional disaster
plan and establishment of a regional emergency management services agency. On April 18,
Kneehill County conducted a meeting with various emergency services representatives and
there was full support to proceed with the establishment of the Kneehill Regional Emergency
Management Agency (KREMA).
Don Huestis along with representatives from Acme, Carbon, Linden, Three Hills and Trochu
attended the meeting.
Discussion
This initiative is consistent with the direction resulting from the Community Summit and the
County Strategic Plan. The participants agreed to approach their respective Councils and
recommend that they endorse the concept of creating a Regional Agency. The next meeting
of the proposed KREMA is scheduled for Thursday, May 5. It is expected that KREMA will
adopt a working model and discuss related matters.
This is another regional partnership opportunity for the County and municipalities within the
County to continue to foster and enhance positive working relationships. I encourage Council
to endorse this important initiative.
Recommendation
That Council endorse the concept of establishing a Kneehill Regional Emergency Management
Agency.

Date: April 22, 2005
Issue: Tax Penalty Bylaw
Background: Council passed motion -numbers 182/05, 183/.05 and 184/05 at the April
12, 2005 Regular Meeting. These motions set the basis for the new Tax
Penalty Bylaw where current taxes remaining unpaid as at November 1
and December 1 would be penalized at a rate of 2% of the total current
outstanding, and arrears would be penalized at a rate of 2% per month.
Discussion: Much difficulty was encountered in trying to formulate a clear statement
concerning Council's intent for penalization of arrears. Finally, section 4
was divided into two sections to make it clear arrears from 2004 were to
be penalized in November and December of this year and all arrears from
January 1, onward would be penalized on the first of each month for as
long as the arrears remained outstanding.
Recommendation:
a) That Council proceed with first and second readings at this meeting.
b) That Council proceed with third reading at the May 10, 2005 meeting.
