Planning and Development
The Planning and Development Department manages development in the town and plans for the growth of Carstairs. The Land Use Bylaw and Municipal Development Plan are the guidelines the department follows for appropriate management. Use the links in this section to find information on development permits, subdivision or permit applications, and licenses. Application forms for things like building a deck can be found on our Documents and Forms page.

The Town Office is open weekdays from 8:30 am to 4 pm, Monday to Friday. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact the Town Office at 403-337-3341.

Public Hearings
From time to time Town Council will call Public Hearings to address certain issues of importance to residents, including, but not limited to, amendments to the Land Use bylaw. Notice of Public Hearings will be included here.

Compliances
A Real Property Report is necessary to determine compliance with municipal bylaws. A municipality reviews and endorses the Real Property Report and indicates if the improvements meet the requirements of the local bylaws. The property owner can then resolve any outstanding issues identified by the municipality. Early preparation of a Real Property Report and inquiring on any projects without permits significantly speeds up the process of selling a property. Our office requires four originals signed and stamped by the surveyor and a fee of $50.00.
