Municipal Development Plan
Shaping the Future of Fort Saskatchewan!
The Municipal Development Plan (MDP) is Fort Saskatchewan’s long-term guide for growth and development. It outlines strategies for land use, infrastructure, mobility, and community design as the city grows toward 50,000 residents. Developed through public engagement, the MDP helps shape how the city looks, feels, and functions.

MDP Implementation
To ensure the City is taking action to achieve the vision and goals of the MDP, Administration is monitoring the MDP Implementation Targets (in Section 12) and Planning & Capital Infrastructure Projects (in Section 13) and will report to Council and the public every two years. Below is the first bi-annual update on the MDP Implementation.

MDP Draft Policies Engagement
The Community Direction Statement (CDS) and Pillars were created following the My Fort. My City. My Say. public engagements and validated with a series of public engagements in the Fall of 2019.
The Growth Strategy is our approach to fulfilling CDS and Pillars. The video below explains the strategy.
The following policy sections of the MDP were brought to the public in focus groups and online questionnaires in February, March and August of 2020:
- Mobility
- Natural Systems & Green Infrastructure
- Our Neighbourhoods
- General
- Downtown
- Established Neighbourhoods
- Developing Neighbourhoods
- Future Urban Area
- City-Wide
- Infrastructure & Servicing
- Economic Development
- Managing City Growth
To help explain our approach to these policy sections we’ve created the videos below.
