Two cornerstone documents for the Town of Drumheller, the Municipal Development Plan (MDP) and Land Use Bylaw (LUB), passed third reading during the regular Drumheller council meeting on Monday, December 7.
Amendments were made to the documents following a first reading in August this year, followed by a series of neighbourhood engagement sessions in mid-to-late October to let the public provide input.
“They (the MDP and LUB) needed modernization, but more than that, they needed to acknowledge the single biggest threat to development in the community the river and address how that threat can be reduced,” Councillor Jay Garbutt said during the meeting. “Using flood program funds to bring these new documents forward is the best reflection, so far, on leveraging that investment.”
