Proposed Bylaw - 1429-26 Proposed Adoption of Atlas Landing Area Structure Plan

Mackenzie County is proposing to adopt the Atlas Landing Area Structure Plan to guide the long-term, orderly planning of approximately 9,409.99 acres adjacent to the Hamlet of La Crete.

This is not a rezoning application.

The plan is intended to establish a framework for future consideration of rural residential, hobby-farm, recreational, and open-space opportunities, while recognizing environmental features, access, servicing, and wildfire-resilience considerations.

No immediate subdivision or development is proposed. Any future land use, subdivision, or development proposals would be subject to separate public processes and applicable County and provincial requirements.

The Public Hearing will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, December 8, 2026 in the Mackenzie County Council Chambers in Fort Vermilion (4511-46 Avenue). The draft plan may be view online via the link below:
