This data represents the boundaries of the Council Approved Area Structure Plans and Area Redevelopment Plans. Some boundaries have been created by consolidating the approved Area Structure Plan and its subsequent amendments.

Within Strathcona County the Area Structure Plan (ASP) is defined as a 'statutory plans that outline development of a small part of a community or neighbourhood.'

This data represents only the boundary areas of Council Approved Area Concept Plans. It does not include the future land uses and roadways within the approved plans.

Within Strathcona County and Area Concept Plan (ACP) is defined as 'a comprehensive planning framework and generalized future land use concept that guides subsequent development plans.'

An intermunicipal development plan (IDP) is a high-level statutory plan jointly developed by two or more neighbouring municipalities, and where at least one member is not part of a growth management region. An IDP ensures that land use decisions are coordinated between municipalities.

Recent changes to the Municipal Government Act (MGA) require that all municipalities within the province of Alberta with a shared boundary must complete and adopt an IDP, unless both municipalities are part of a growth region or have a mutual agreement for an IDP exemption. Strathcona County is part of the Edmonton Metropolitan Regional Board with the following municipalities, meaning IDPs are not required: the City of Edmonton, the City of Fort Saskatchewan, Leduc County, and Sturgeon County.

A joint planning study is a document that facilitates collaboration and guides the development of strategies and tools to address emerging topics between two municipalities.
