  • Village of Carmangay Profile
    Village of Carmangay ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY PROFILE Village of Carmangay: Economic Development Community Profile 1 Welcome to the Village of Carmangay With a beautiful blend of prairie, river valley, and mountains, the Village of Carmangay is the perfect place for any couple to raise a family. Carmangay offers unlimited opportunities for business, industrial or residential projects. Affordable, fully serviced lots, low taxes and a unique geographical location provide opportunities galore for you and your family. Carmangay is the oldest municipality in Vulcan County. C.W. Carman and his wife (nee Gay), settled in 1907. The Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) branch line made Carmangay a "boom town" in its' early years. During this time, the rail line extended only as far as Carmangay. The prosperity ended in 1911 when the bridge over the Little Bow River was completed, and the rail line then extended north. Nevertheless, Carmangay continues to progress. Carmangay is the "Home of Southern Hospitality" and offers an excellent quality of life with family and country‐style living, fresh air, blue skies and a progressive community spirit.

Rural Multi-jurisdictional Intermunicipal Development Plan Project In 2012, Vulcan County and seven other rural municipalities initiated a process to create a series of 11 rural-to-rural intermunicipal development plans.

Although the border areas are primarily used for agricultural purposes, in many cases significant ecological, mineral and hydrogeological resources exist, as well as important infrastructure including transportation and utilities.
