The steering committee overseeing the updating of the Mountain View County Eagle Valley area structure plan (ASP) held its first meeting on Oct. 4.
“We got organized and set the direction for the next meeting,” said member and county councillor Patricia McKean. “We are reviewing the plan to make sure it is in line with the current municipal development plan.”
Originally passed in 1997, the updated Eagle Valley ASP will be used for future land use planning in the community, located northeast of Sundre.
The steering committee is made up of four community members and three county councillors.
The plan updating process will include public input, she said.
“The committee members are really engaged and excited about being part of it,” she said. “Community consultation will be a big part of the process making sure people are on board with any changes.
“We are hoping to have something passed before the next municipal election (in 2017).”
