On April 16, 2024, the project developer of the Langdon Area Structure Plan (ASP) provided an update to the Governance Committee on the project. The land use strategy proposes development of primarily single-family housing complemented by semi-detached, townhouse and multi-family dwellings. The proposed new neighbourhoods are intended to be comprehensively planned with full servicing and a roadway and active transportation system that ensures these areas are effectively integrated with the hamlet.
The lands identified south along Centre Street are proposed for a business park supporting business/commercial uses fronting onto Centre Street, and light industrial uses. This will provide a variety of employment opportunities to support Langdon’s development as a complete community.
Next Steps
The developer is in the process of completing all background studies and reports to support the proposal. Community engagement will take place once a land use strategy is finalized, and background studies are complete.
Previous Information
On November 28, 2023, Council approved the Terms of Reference for a developer-led and developer-funded Langdon ASP amendment to include an additional four quarter sections into the hamlet boundary, which will provide for a range of housing, employment, and amenity options. The developer has since been working with Administration to prepare a land use strategy for the expansion lands and is present to provide an update on the proposed amendments.
Background
The Langdon plan area is positioned along Centre Street and extends approximately one mile east and west from Centre Street, encompassing approximately 15 quarter sections for a total of 947 hectares (2,340 acres). Langdon offers a variety of amenities and services for its nearly 5,000 residents including schools, open space, local shops, businesses, and recreational uses.
The County adopted the first ASP for Langdon in April 1999 to respond to the growth pressures facing the community. The ASP was amended in 2003 and again in 2005. In 2014, the County began a project to prepare a new ASP to replace the existing Langdon ASP to consider boundary expansion and ensure compliance with the Municipal Development Plan (the County Plan). That ASP was approved in 2016 and added approximately 950 acres of land to Langdon and established a future study area for lands that could be considered for future expansion.
