Town of Stettler and County of Stettler Intermunicipal Development Plan (IDP)
The Town of Stettler and County of Stettler are updating our Intermunicipal Development Plan. These updates lay the track for growth and development for years to come.
The draft IDP is available for you to review:
The Town and County municipal Councils will each consider the IDP at a Public Hearing, where you will have another opportunity to share your thoughts. The IDP is anticipated to be considered by the Town and County Councils in September or early October 2025. Watch for updates regarding the date of upcoming Council meetings.
The Plan must be approved by both Town and County municipal Councils before the IDP will guide growth and development in the Plan area.
What is an Intermunicipal Development Plan?
An IDP establishes the framework for growth and development for lands within the Plan area. An IDP also outlines how municipalities will collaborate and cooperate as these developments are brought forward. Both the Town of Settler and County of Stettler municipal Councils must approve the new IDP before the Plan will guide growth and development.
Did you know? The current IDP was approved by the Town and County in 2009. Since adoption the IDP has guided growth and development in the Town and County. The current IDP will be used as the foundation to update the IDP.

Our Shared Track
Round 1 Engagement Recap
Our first round of engagement is now closed. In our first round of engagement we asked you via a survey “where do you want to go?” and, “what do we need to get there?”. You provided your feedback in March 2022 on the land uses, servicing and community amenities needed to achieve the joint Town and County vision.
Round 2 Engagement Recap
The second round of engagement is now closed. In this round we focused on developing strategies to achieve the goals identified in round 1. The public had an opportunity to meet with the project team at three in-person engagement events in May and June 2022.
Round 3 Engagement
Considering feedback obtained as part of Round 1 and 2 Engagement, Town and County administration have collaborated to discuss the servicing requirements and development of lands within the IDP Plan area.
Following Round 3 engagement, Project Team will consider feedback and prepare a finalized version for Town and County Council consideration.
