The Town of Bentley and Lacombe County are working together to encourage commercial and industrial growth opportunities in the north half of Section 23-40- 1-W5M, situated within Lacombe County, southeast of Bentley.
The objective of this project is to provide a conceptual framework and design standards through which future industrial and commercial development may occur on these subject lands. The proposed Southeast Bentley Area Structure Plan has been drafted in response to the feedback received from the public meeting held in November 2022. The Plan Area has been reduced in size, removing the SW and SE 23 in response to concerns expressed by landowners. This proposed Plan also includes provisions that address concerns expressed about land use compatibility for the proposed commercial area south of 48 Avenue. The draft Plan can be viewed on either municipalities' websites.
On Thursday, June 29, 2023, we will be hosting a second public meeting about the project. You are welcome to attend to share your feedback on the proposed Plan! Your input will help us make key decisions for the next steps of the Project.
Display boards will be available for viewing and there will be an opportunity for discussions and questions after the presentation. A survey will be available to gather feedback at the meeting, and a survey link will be available afterwards on the websites.
