Special Areas Board

Land Use Order


Client: Palliser Regional Municipal Services & Special Areas Board


Date: 2020-2021


Location: Special Areas Board, Alberta


Bluerock’s Role: Project Management, Policy Writing, Graphics and Visuals


Bluerock Planning, in partnership with Palliser Regional Municipal Services, worked closely with Special Areas Board to overhaul their Land Use Order that covers all 5,000,000 acres of land.
The new Land Use Order addressed many important topics including: country residential subdivision and design, renewable energy, economic development, rural, industrial and commercial uses, and moving towards a more form-based approach for regulation within hamlets.

The design of the new Land Use Order was visually easy-to-read and use with strategic use of colours, tables and graphics. The digital PDF version is completely interactive with internal hyperlinks and indexes allowing the user to browse the document just like a website.
