Planning & Development
The NRRM Planning Department (part of the Community Development and Planning Department) is responsible for zoning, development applications, subdivisions, rural subdivisions (taking over from Ministry of Transportation within the NRRM as of February 6th, 2009), and other land-use related activities. If you are planning any development in the Northern Rockies Regional Municipality, we are here to help.
