Planning a new shop, barn, or other agricultural building?
The County of Newell is considering changes to its Land Use Bylaw that would require Development Permits for new Agricultural Buildings.
The proposed changes are intended to help producers identify potential issues before construction begins.
No decisions have been made. Council is seeking feedback from agricultural producers, landowners, and residents before considering the proposed bylaw amendments. We encourage you to review the information below, ask questions, and share your thoughts to help shape the final proposal. Learn more > Proposed Development Permits for Agricultural Buildings
