Additional Subdivision and Development Appeal Board (SDAB) training planned

The MGA includes a requirement for SDAB members and clerks to undergo mandatory training based on a standard program approved by the Minister of Municipal Affairs by April 1, 2019. SDAB training will ensure that hearing practices are consistent across the province, and board members have a comprehensive understanding of their role and the appeal process.

Training sessions offered free of charge by Municipal Affairs over the summer are already full and have substantial waiting lists. Therefore, AUMA and RMA are working with Municipal Affairs to offer further courses in the fall.  Registration for the following locations will open shortly and be announced in the Digest:

  • Camrose September 18-19, 2018
  • Westlock October 3-4, 2018
  • Peace River October 10-11, 2018
  • Lethbridge October 24-25, 2018
  • Red Deer October 30-31, 2018
