Many of you have filled out the Land Use Workbooks already, but there are public consultation sessions happening (many have happened already). I was just at the one here in Lethbridge and bent the ear of every SRD person I could. If you get a chance, go to these in your area & do the same. They are also collecting information & suggestions to take forward to the stakeholder meetings coming up later this summer.
Public information and input sessions on Land-use Framework in 15 locations
across Alberta
Albertans are invited to contribute to the development of the
Land-use Framework at public sessions in 15 locations across the province in
May.
The sessions will feature information displays on land use in Alberta.
Government staff will be available to answer questions on the Land-use
Framework process and land use. Participants will be given a package
containing the resource book Understanding Land Use in Alberta and the
Land-use Framework Workbook questionnaire to help them provide input.
