Our Camrose, Our future

This is your city and your opportunity to contribute to the creation of our future vision.

What is Our Camrose, Shaping the Future?

Our Camrose, Shaping the Future is a Municipal Development Plan (MDP). An MDP is a long-range, statutory document that describes the desired future land use for a community and outlines a high-level plan on how the community is expected to change over time.

What is the process for creating Our Camrose, Shaping the Future?

Our Camrose, Shaping the Future will include a process of in-depth research and engagement. This process includes three major steps:

1. Establishing the future vision for Camrose – What kind of future do we want for our city? What should Camrose look and feel like over the next 20 to 30 years?

2. Creating the plan on how to get there – How will we achieve our vision? How should we approach land use, the economy, transportation, environment, and social aspects of our City to achieve the vision?

3. Creating an implementation plan – What do we need to do? What is required to support the decisions we must make to achieve the community vision?

This year, the City is embarking on an important project to update the Municipal Development Plan to better reflect the needs of the City and its residents. The City will be working closely with Green Space Alliance (GSA) to assist with the preparation of the new plan.

The Municipal Development Plan (MDP) is an important planning and decision-making tool that outlines the direction and strategies that inform how the City will look, feel, and grow over the next 25 years.

In order to seek diverse feedback from various internal and external stakeholders, the City is planning to establish the following two committees:
Technical Review Committee
The Technical Review Committee (TRC) will consist of City staff with expertise related to community services and economic development, finance, engineering and infrastructure, emergency services, parks and open spaces, and land use. The TRC will review and advise on technical matters to ensure the MDP is relevant and practical.
Community-led Review Committee
The Community-led Review Committee (CRC) will include a range of community members that demonstrate a commitment to crafting a vision for Camrose and desire to implement that vision. CRC members also represent community groups or are experts in their respective fields. The CRC will provide a community perspective on the content of the community vision and the MDP. The CRC will also provide advise on how to best engage with the City of Camrose.
