CHAIRMAN ___________________________ A.S.B. SECRETARY ASB Minutes 03 13 2017 Page 4 of 4 6 Policy Name Haying & Grazing Leases Policy Number PD – 21 Policy Statement The local agricultural industry is an essential part of Brazeau County. Producers may require additional lands for their livestock or seek to utilize additional lands for haying. Brazeau County leases certain County owned lands for these purposes. The need for a policy has been recognized in order to determine lease rates and a process for entering into a lease. To this effect, Brazeau County will seek to: Educate agricultural producers on this policy when they approach the County regarding new or existing leases; Provide a step by step procedure for the negotiation of new leases and renewal of existing leases; and Establish rates based on the Alberta provincial government standards that will be used during negotiations; Policy a) New Grazing or Haying Lease Negotiation Purpose The Planning and Development Department (P&D) will be the main point of contact for all inquiries about new grazing or haying leases on County owned lands that have not previously been leased. Procedure When an inquiry is received, P&D will utilize the following procedure to negotiate and enter in to a new lease agreement for grazing: Chief Administrative Officer: ___________________________________________________________ Approved by Council: (Y/M/D) 2015/12/15________________________________________________ Revision Dates: (Y/M/D) ______________________________________________________________ Reviewed: (Y/M/D) __________________________________________________________________ PD – 21 Haying & Grazing Leases Page 1 of 5 7 1) The Director of Planning & Development or their designate will be the first point of contact for agricultural producers seeking a new lease. All new leases will be referred to the Agricultural Service Board (ASB) for a recommendation and then Council for a decision. Lease requests are accepted on a first come, first serve basis. 2) For an existing lease, P&D will refer the request to the ASB for a recommendation. If the ASB recommends approval, then the lease may be renewed by P&D subject to the Renewal of Existing Grazing or Haying Lease subsection below. If the ASB recommends refusal, then the lease will be brought to Council for a decision. 3) The producer will provide details on the number, sex, and age of the livestock, to P&D. 4) After reviewing the information, a site inspection shall occur to assess the plant communities and the rangeland health of the site, as per current provincially approved grazing range management documents. 5) The rates outlined in Appendix A will be used to establish the lease rate based on the information provided by the producer, the plant communities on the site, rangeland health, their location in the County and provincially established rates based on Animal Unit Months (AUMs) for the Brazeau County area. 6) The producer will be notified of the established rates after they have been calculated and presented with the lease based on those rates. 7) Once the lease has been signed, P&D will be responsible for maintaining and tracking all details of the agreement including annual rental payments and anniversary date. 8) Annual payments will be due within 30 days of the anniversary date of the lease.
