New planning act shifts school reserve land powers to boards
Medicine Hat schools gain direct access to ten percent public reserve in new subdivisions under the Planning Act. Half of that reserve goes to school boards, with boards now consulted on site choices and able to appeal to the provincial planning board. Cash-in-lieu rules and disposal terms remain tightly regulated, with land allocations applying to subdivisions after April 1.
