Land Use Bylaw

Lac La Biche County's newly rewritten Land Use Bylaw (25-010) was adopted by Council on Sept. 23, 2025. The rewritten bylaw comes after a lengthy public engagement and review process, to ensure the bylaw continues to meet current and future development needs in our community.

What is the Land Use Bylaw?

A Land Use Bylaw (LUB) is a bylaw adopted under the guidance of Alberta's Municipal Government Act (MGA). Every municipality in Alberta is required to have a LUB. It regulates how land can be used and developed within Lac La Biche County. Our LUB assigns each property in the County a zoning district. That zoning district further defines appropriate land uses and development regulations.

Not all development proposals require a permit! Under our LUB, Section 5.1 identifies when a development permit is not a requirement.
