Regional Impact

The 12 municipalities outside of Edmonton that make up the region are growing at a rapid rate, both for population and housing, as well as through the attraction of employment and investment. There is a complex interplay among and between the various counties, towns and cities, and we play a role in working collaboratively toward outcomes that enable industry and municipal success.

Our priorities include:

  • Pursue more flexibility in regulatory frameworks across municipalities
  • Recognize the importance of regional growth strategies
  • Work with the Edmonton Metropolitan Region Board on land and housing initiatives
  • Press for consistency across municipalities with the adoption and interpretation of regulations (e.g., zoning, safety codes)
