The District Policy and Plans

The District Policy, 14 District Plans and other associated planning documents help guide growth and change in Edmonton, showing where development and infrastructure and amenity investment are encouraged.

The City uses these documents to evaluate development proposals, such as rezonings, subdivisions and development permit applications, to ensure they align with direction in The City Plan. They are also used to inform decisions around where new infrastructure and service improvements, such as roadways, parks and transit, will be needed to support future, increased development.

District Policy Purpose

The District Policy provides general policy direction for planning and design, mobility and growth management for all districts. It allows for a consistent policy framework, enabling an efficient and equitable approach wherein policy updates apply city-wide and growth in all areas of the city shares a common foundation.

District Plans and Other Plans in Effect

The district plans contain district-specific maps and area-specific policies to show how the city-wide District Policy directions are applied in each district. The main function of the plans is to show where different types of development are appropriate and what public infrastructure is planned in all parts of each district.

The District Policy and plans operate alongside other geographic plans (table right column) and related planning documents in effect to support the implementation of The City Plan.

The following abbreviations are used to reference the plans:

ASP: Area Structure Plan
NASP: Neighbourhood Area Structure Plan
NSP: Neighbourhood Structure Plan
ARP: Area Redevelopment Plan
SCDB: Servicing Concept Design Brief
OP: Outline Plan
