The Selkirk and District Planning Area Board (SDPAB) was incorporated June 11, 1977. Our District office regulates development over an area of approximately 1,580 sq.km (680 sq.miles), serving the Rural Municipalities of St. Andrews, St. Clements, West St. Paul, the City of Selkirk and the Village of Dunnottar.
The Selkirk and District Planning Area Board is pleased to welcome the Village of Dunnottar as a member municipality as of January 14, 2010. We would like to congratulate the Village of Dunnottar on this important step to plan and work together with our neighbouring municipalities for the betterment of our region and communities.
Earlier this year, the R.M. of St. Andrews and the Selkirk and District Planning Area Board (SDPAB) hired MMM Group Limited (MMM) to work with the community and develop a secondary plan to guide the future development of the Lockport Settlement Centre and the surrounding area. It is the intent that the secondary plan will build on the previous planning efforts. The secondary plan will be used to guide the development of the area and to create specific policies for a more detailed direction of land use.
