We Are Growing! The City of Leduc has experienced sustained growth. • Average annual growth over last decade has been 6-to-7% in all sectors. • Approximate number of residential permits: • 460 units in 2012; • 500 units in 2013 (10% increase); • 640 units in 2014 (26% increase); • 350 units in 2015 (45% decrease); and • 220 units in 2016 (36% decrease). CONCLUSION: The pace of development is slowing. • Energy sector decline has affected the pace of development, but provides the opportunity to: • Update, develop & refine the City’s TMP; • Develop a proactive approach to the internal transportation planning process; and • Guide infrastructure objectives of the municipality. 3. TMP Function and Objectives The TMP will... • Function as an implementation tool that supports the overall Municipal Development Plan’s goals, objectives and high-level policies; • Examine various transportation corridors to ensure effective development of transportation infrastructure to support Leduc’s future growth; • Establish roadway planning initiatives, provide for contingencies and establish targets for roadway improvements; and • Guide and coordinate future urban growth decisions and infrastructure investment.
