COUNCIL HIGHLIGHTS
September 27, 2016
Public Hearing 13.16 – Council held a Public Hearing for Bylaw 13.16 for a section of
land located south of Edson adjacent to Tollerton Estates that would rezone the property
to Country Residential. The surrounding areas are residential based lands, and the
proposed zoning would be a better fit for this particular property and allow for the
property owner to subdivide the property separating the house and the shop. No
concerns were brought forward during the hearing.
West Fraser on Caribou Recovery Plan – Representatives from West Fraser
presented their concerns on the province's Little Smoky and A La Peche Caribou
Recovery Plan including how their business could be negatively impacted. They are
urging the province to respect their current forest tenure agreements and not to pursue
the timber pooling concept.
Bickerdike Speed Reduction – Council gave the first reading for Bylaw 16.16 that
would reduce the speed limit to a portion of Bickerdike Road to a new speed of 60
Legal Issues in km/hour, down from the current 80 km/hour. Yellowhead County is seeking input from
residents and others that use this portion of the road prior to Council making a decision..
Common Law Property Tax Recovery Auction – The 2016 Property Tax Recovery public auction for
the parcels of land on the tax arrears list will be November 30, 2016. A municipality
must offer for sale, at a public auction, any parcel of land on its tax arrears list if not paid
prior to the auction.
Relationships The next Council Meetings are October 11 & 25, 2016. The next Committee of the
Whole Council Meeting is October 31, 2016. All meetings start at 9:30 a.m. in the
