The Subdivision and Development Appeal Board is a five member panel that hears and decides appeals on development or subdivision decisions that have been made previously by the Development Officer or the Municipal Planning Commission. Two Members-at-Large appointments are made annually along with three County Councillors.
Subdivision appeals may be filed by:
- the applicant for subdivision approval
- government departments to which subdivision applications are required to be referred for comment
- school authorities on limited issues relating to municipal and school reserves.
Development appeals may be filed by anyone who is affected by a decision of the Planning & Development Department in relation to a development proposal. Appeals may not be filed for a permitted use unless the Department relaxed, varied or misinterpreted the Land Use Bylaw.
Once an appeal is filed, a hearing will be arranged by the County Administrative Assistant. The Subdivision and Development Appeal Board is the final approving authority on subdivision and development appeals within Brazeau County.
