County of Stettler 5 October 9, 2019 - Regular Council Meeting County of Stettler 6 October 9, 2019 - Regular Council Meeting One of the action items out of the 2019 AGM was to contact the County of Stettler bylaw enforcement officer to determine what the process was to allow snow mobile access on the ER lands in the Scenic Sands community. This came about as a Scenic Sands resident complained to the County of Stettler last winter about a snow mobile on the ER. The County has indicated that they now will be enforcing the OHV restriction (off highway vehicle) which includes snowmobiles on the ER. Historically, Scenic Sands residents have been using the ER to access the lake for snowmobiling. This restriction will now force some Scenic Sands residents to use Buffalo Drive to access the lake. Buffalo Drive can have unsafe driving conditions for snow mobiles and the snow mobile traffic will now be focused on one road causing increased noise for the resident who live along Buffalo

  • Request for Proposal #06/18 Gasoline Alley Entrance Sign
    Addendum #1 - Request for Proposal #06/18 Gasoline Alley Entrance Sign 1. The concept “over the road” sign was sent to Alberta Transportation. Their comments can be summarized below: - A guideline for welcome signs published online at: http://www.transportation.alberta.ca/Content/docType233/Production/24Welcome_Sign.pdf - The brick base (shown on our sample sign) does not appear to be on breakaway. Please ensure that the base is outside the clear zone. To help with the clear zone assessment, the posted speed limit is 60km/hr at this location. - The entrance feature height needs to provide enough clearance for the tallest size vehicle that is approved to use the C-D Road. It should be designed to the same height as the overhead signs on provincial highways, which appears to be a 6m clearance requirement. Please refer to Page 32, Table 3.9 – Vertical Placement of Signs, Overhead Sign Type – On Dedicated Overhead Support such as a Sign Gantry: http://www.transportation.alberta.ca/Content/docType233/Production/Guide_info.pdf - The drawing does not illustrate any landscaping but if landscaping is proposed, it should consist of small shrubs and bushes (less than 100 mm base and 4 foot height at maturity) and it should be outside the clear zone. - Does the proposed entrance feature block the line of sight along the C-D Roadway? The brick base on the west side of the C-D road would have to meet clear zone requirements from both the C-D road and Hwy 2. The clear zone from Hwy 2 is over 10m with so taking into consideration all the requirements, Alberta Transportation wants to acknowledge that there’s a risk that the overhead banner sign may not be physically feasible or able to meet all the requirements.

  • Living in Red Deer County: a Guide for New Residents INTRODUCTION
    Living in Red Deer County: A Guide for New Residents INTRODUCTION The quality of life in Red Deer County is among the best found anywhere in the world. However, life in the country is different in a number of ways from life in the city. Rural governments normally provide a different type of service than that provided in urban areas. The following information is provided to help you make an educated and in- formed decision when choosing to purchase or develop land outside the boundaries of incorporated cities, towns or villages. AGRICULTURE Red Deer County is largely an agricultural area. Much of the rural land is actively used for growing crops, feeding livestock and providing lumber and mineral resources. Owning rural land means knowing how to care for it. Here are some points to consider: 1. Agriculture is an important business in Red Deer County. Choosing to live in the country means choosing to live among the farms and ranches of our rural countryside, and accepting the normal day-to-day operations of agri- business neighbors. The County will not intervene with these normal day-to-day operations unless there is a valid reason. 2. Farmers often work around the clock, especially during planting and harvest time. Dairy operators sometimes milk without stopping and hay is often swathed or baled at night. Low-flying planes and crop duster planes may fly overhead during irregular hours. On occasion, it is possible that adjoining agricultural uses may disturb your peace and quiet. 3. Land preparation and other operations can cause dust, especially during windy and dry weather.
