The economy of Ponoka County has traditionally centered on agriculture, with some oil and gas developments, and recreation developments around the lakes.

Specifically, the MGA states: Intermunicipal development plans 631(1) Two or more councils of municipalities that have common boundaries that are not members of a growth region as defined in section 708.01 must, by each passing a bylaw in accordance with this Part or in accordance with sections 12 and 692, adopt an intermunicipal development plan to include those areas of land lying within the boundaries of the municipalities as they consider necessary. (1.1) Despite subsection (1), the Minister may, by order, exempt one or more councils from the requirement to adopt an intermunicipal development plan, and the order may contain any terms and conditions that the Minister considers necessary. (1.2) Two or more councils of municipalities that are not otherwise required to adopt an intermunicipal development plan under subsection (1) 3 may, by each passing a bylaw in accordance with this Part or in accordance with sections 12 and 692, adopt an intermunicipal development plan to include those areas of land lying within the boundaries of the municipalities as they consider necessary.

GOALS 1) Development of land use polices to protect prime agricultural lands from premature designation, subdivision and non-farm development. 2) Effective coordination of transportation systems and protection of required land for future road network developments. 3) Development of land use policies to ensure that future sites for recreation areas are considered. 4) Development of a plan for the provision of utility corridors within the Plan Area to provide for future growth and development of the IDP area, and to ensure oil and gas development/pipelines do not inhibit or restrict the future development of the region. 5) Identification and protection of physical features and environmentally sensitive areas. 6) Effective referral mechanisms and dispute resolution mechanisms. 7) Provide effective plan administration and implementation.

  • Camrose County Biomass Reference.Indd
    Wood-Fired Boilers Sustainable Wood Energy Project – Camrose County, AB Background In October 2007, the Camrose County, Alberta Council began investigating renewable energy sources and alternative wastewater treatment methods. Following consultations with Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development, Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development and Natural Resources Canada – along with visits to an experimental willow tree plantation in Whitecourt and a successful wood biomass boiler system in Edmonton – the Council began efforts to combine the two concepts in Camrose County. In 2008, the Council launched the Camrose County Sustainable Wood Energy Project. The initiative would consist of a wood biomass boiler retrofi t and wood fuel storage site at the County Administration Offi ce in Camrose, in addition to an alternative wastewater treatment facility with a willow plantation at the Hamlet of Ohaton Lagoon. A Viessmann Pyrot KRT-150 boiler utilizes locally-sourced wood biomass fuel to heat the 2,365-square-metre Camrose County Administration Offi ce The Viessmann Solution A fully containerized Viessmann Pyrot wood-fi red boiler system was commissioned to provide space heating for the 2,365-square-metre Camrose County Administration Offi ce. Installation Details The Pyrot KRT-150 boiler (rated at 85% effi ciency) was commissioned in March of 2011. The boiler handles approximately 96% of the Administration Offi ce’s regular heating load and 69% during periods of peak demand. A natural gas boiler provides supplementary heating when required. A wood chip storage silo and automated feed system ensure a consistent fuel supply for the boiler. A fuel acquisition storage site with an aeration system at the County yard is used to stockpile additional fuel for the Pyrot boiler, which requires 120 tonnes of wood chips annually.
