The completion of the Sylvan Lake Management Plan: 2000 Update is a further example of intermunicipal cooperation aimed at promoting responsible land use and development around Sylvan Lake. Lacombe County, Red Deer County, the Town of Sylvan Lake and all five Summer Villages have adopted the Plan, which has opened up considerably more opportunities for development around the lake than was the case with the previous lake management plan.
