Public Hearings

Public Hearings are another opportunity for the public to engage with Council. The public may provide input to Council through written correspondence, or by attending the Public Hearing in person, and speaking to Council when prompted. 

All Public Hearings are listed on the front page of Council agendas, which are available on our Council and Committee Meetings Calendar the Friday before the meeting.

Public Hearings are also advertised in the Sylvan Lake News.

Public Notice: Postponement of Public Hearings Due to Canada Post Strike

Please be advised that public hearings for Bylaws 1935-2025, 1936-2025, and 1937-2025 have been postponed due to the ongoing Canada Post strike.

Due to the strike, we are unable to mail the required notifications to adjacent landowners. No date has been rescheduled for the public hearings at this time.

New dates for these public hearings will be advertised in the Sylvan Lake News and posted on this page once they are confirmed.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to reschedule these public hearings.
