Off-site levies

Off-site levies are charges established by a municipal bylaw that help pay for roads and utilities that are outside (off-site) of a development or subdivision.

 

In Parkland County, off-site levies apply to parts of the land in and adjacent to:

  • Acheson Business Park area
  • Fifth Meridian Business Park area
  • Big Lake residential area north of Highway 16Country residential areas

 

The Municipal Government Act (MGA) allows municipalities to regulate development by setting conditions that must be satisfied before development begins. These conditions may include fees and charges related to funding new or expanded infrastructure or facilities such as:

  • storage, transmission, treatment or supply of water;
  • treatment, movement or disposal of sanitary sewage;
  • storm sewer transmission or drainage facilities;
  • roads required for or impacted by a subdivision or development; and
  • land required for any of the above described facilities.

Payment of off-site levies

  • Required once
  • Can only be required for the development or subdivision of land
  • Exemptions may apply
  • Pay the levy once  the development agreement is complete, before   beginning development and  before endorsement of the registered survey plan at the Land Titles Office
  • If the levy exceeds $500,000, you can request that a payment deferral over two years. A formal agreement is required to defer payment.
