When the County of Vermilion River holds its next meeting on June 24, the proposed changes to the municipal development plan and land use bylaw will be dropped.
The public outcry has added fuel to the debate in the county with the changes up for a second reading.
The second public hearing on the proposals on June 11 was a full house, with residents voicing their concerns over the changes and the effects they may have.
Residents are concerned about government overreach, infringement on their property rights, lack of clarity in the proposals, and the cost associated with implementation.
County officials cite the cost to date as $100,000 provided by Alberta.
