Intermunicipal Collaboration Frameworks

An ICF is a tool used to facilitate cooperation between neighbouring municipalities to ensure municipal services are provided to residents in an efficient and cost-effective manner. For example, it could include services such as fire response or bylaw enforcement.

Parkland County has entered into agreement with the following municipalities:

  • Brazeau County
  • Lac Ste. Anne County
  • Summer Village of Betula Beach
  • Summer Village of Kapasiwin
  • Summer Village of Lakeview
  • Summer Village of Point Alison
  • Summer Village Seba Beach
  • Village of Spring Lake
  • Yellowhead County

Opt Out Agreements

In compliance with Section 708.28 of the Municipal Government Act, municipal districts (counties) with common boundaries are exempt from creating a framework if both municipal districts determine and agree that they do not require one.

On August 19, 2025, administration from both Parkland County and Leduc County met to review land use, development, and shared services along the shared boundary.

The North Saskatchewan River forms the boundary between the two counties, providing a natural buffer that minimizes the potential for land use conflicts. The surrounding land is largely agricultural, and existing planning frameworks are sufficient to manage development.

Both municipalities also agreed that our shared services are managed well through the existing service agreements, and an ICF is not required to adequately provide these services across our borders. 

Based on this review, both municipalities agreed that neither an ICF nor an IDP is required at this time.
