The community built a vision through the Bremner Growth Management Strategy, and through the Bremner Area Project we are creating a detailed plan for urban growth that continues to the north and to the east of present Sherwood Park.

Where we're growing

Strathcona County’s population is growing and we need to plan to ensure efficient, smart and innovative growth. Bremner will be a continuous expansion of Sherwood Park that reflects principles of smart growth. The Local Employment Area located across from Bremner, on the south side of highway 16 (see below map), is also being planned for as part of the Bremner Area Project.

Professional services firm, Stantec, has been retained to work with the County on the project. There are many ways for the public to provide input on the project through the public engagement process.

Next steps

On February 12, the Strathcona County Priorities Committee was given an overview of how the financial model functions for the Financial Viability Analysis, and provided scenarios to evaluate financial variables.

We are still accepting comments from the public, as well as internal and external reviewers for draft 3 of the Area Concept Plan and technical documents, and this process must be completed prior to finalizing the associated costs within the financial model. The Financial Viability Analysis for Bremner will be finalized and available on our website for review in April 2019, prior to the Public Hearing and first reading for the Bremner and LEA Area Concept Plan.
