Definitions of Rural
Rural and Small Town Canada Analysis Bulletin Catalogue no. 21-006-XIE Vol. 3, No. 3 (November 2001) DEFINITIONS OF RURAL Valerie du Plessis, Roland Beshiri and Ray D. Bollman, Statistics Canada and Heather Clemenson, Rural Secretariat, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada HIGHLIGHTS ¨ Several alternative definitions of “rural” are available for national level policy analysis in Canada. ¨ For each rural issue, analysts should consider whether it is a local, community or regional issue. This will influence the type of territorial unit upon which to focus the analysis and the appropriate definition to use. ¨ Different definitions generate a different number of “rural” people. ¨ Even if the number of “rural” people is the same, different people will be classified as “rural” within each definition. ¨ Though the characteristics of “rural” people are different for each definition of “rural”, in general, each definition provides a similar analytical conclusion. Our recommendation We strongly suggest that the appropriate definition should be determined by the question being addressed; however, if we were to recommend one definition as a starting point or benchmark for understanding Canada’s rural population, it would be the “rural and small town” definition. This is the population living in towns and municipalities outside the commuting zone of larger urban centres (i.e. outside the commuting zone of centres with population of 10,000 or more).

Hamlet Procedures
1 Hamlet Procedures for the Organized Hamlets of the Rural Municipality of North Qu’Appelle No 187 Bylaw 18-07 October 2018 INTRODUCTION These procedures are prepared to help guide and inform the hamlet board members as to their role and duty in governing their Organized Hamlet. It sets out the information that is important to all members of the hamlet board and details the many parameters that affect the operations and decisions of the hamlet board and Council. The Procedures and Rules are common to both hamlets in the RM; whereas the policies are made to reflect the individual needs and traditions of each hamlet. The Provision of Services Agreement is also developed for each hamlet. Failure to comply with these procedures may result in the loss of Organized Hamlet status: Reversion of Status Council is required by The Municipalities Act to request the Minister to revert the status of an organized hamlet where there has been no active hamlet board in existence for the previous two years. A hamlet board that does not submit its budget or a report of its activities to Council for a two-year period is considered to be an inactive hamlet board. See section 52 of The Municipalities Act 2 HAMLET PROCEDURES 1. Application 1.1 This document is intended as a guide for elected hamlet board members of the Organized Hamlets (OH) within the Rural Municipality (RM) of North Qu’Appelle #187. It serves two purposes: it is a guide to help a board member understand the function and purpose of a hamlet board, and it contains the rules and procedures to which the hamlet board follows in its governance of the hamlet. -
Calgary Metropolitan Region Board – Growth Plan
CALGARY METROPOLITAN REGION BOARD – GROWTH PLAN The supermajority voting structure of the CMRB grants control over planning and growth in rural municipalities by urban municipalities. Regardless of the mandate of the Board as noted in the CRMB regulation 3(1)(a), the Board has not strived towards consensus on any decision associated with the Growth Plan. The Board has dismissed the rural municipality’s concerns and objections and the urban municipalities have voted as a block against the rural ones, thereby controlling all decisions. Foothills County Council fundamentally disagrees with the guidance and policies within Section 3.1. of Growth Plan. This section of the Growth Plan generates significant red tape, limits economic opportunities in rural municipalities and promotes municipal conflict. These policies demand a significant amount of additional work be undertaken that Foothills feels will have no benefit to our ratepayers and will not create better outcomes for the region. The growth plan creates uncertainty in the development industry by requiring that all Statutory Plans meet the requirements of the Growth Plan prior to Ministerial approval. The Growth Plan gives significant power to an entirely new level of government with primarily urban interests to control development in rural Alberta. WHEREAS the Regional Growth Plan directs growth primarily to urban municipalities and restricts rural growth except in limited areas under the supervision of urban neighbours and the oversight of the Calgary Metropolitan Region Board; and WHEREAS -
Annexation from the M.D. of Foothills Proposed by Okotoks What Is Annexation?
Annexation from the M.D. of Foothills Proposed by Okotoks What is Annexation? • Annexation is the incorporation of territory into the domain of a municipality - generally from another municipality. • Municipalities in Alberta can initiate annexation proceedings, subject to the conditions contained in Part 4, Division 6 of the Municipal Government Act. • Pursuant to Section 114 of the MGA, a municipality may only annex land that is contiguous with the boundaries of the municipality. Annexation Does Not…. • Change the ownership of the land – you will continue to own your property and have all the same rights as before; • Automatically change the “zoning” of the land - you will be able to continue to use your land in the same manner as you have in the past; • Necessarily lead to immediate development - the timing of the development of annexed land will depend on a number of factors such as the transportation network, ease of servicing and the desires of the land owner; or • Mean immediate access to urban services such as water, waste water or garbage pick-up – these services will generally only become available as comprehensive development occurs.
