Housing

Stony Plain is building an inclusive and diverse community with the goal of providing safe, appropriate, and affordable housing so all residents can build a life they love. 

To do this, we must understand the current housing stock and demographics of existing residents, as well as population and employment forecasts for projected community growth. Together, this information provides direction for what the community's housing needs are and will be in the future so we can develop, build, and redevelop to ensure housing options are available for everyone. 

Housing Strategy

In 2022 the Town of Stony Plain prepared a Housing Strategy to identify actions that will create and maintain affordable, safe, and suitable housing options in Stony Plain. A Housing Strategy is intended to be a guiding document that describes a community’s approach to meet its housing goals and is used to inform decisions on land use and development. Stony Plain’s Housing Strategy identifies housing needs and establishes goals to support the development of affordable and diverse housing types to meet the needs of people of all ages and abilities living in Stony Plain. 

It describes the Town's approach to meet its housing goals and is used to inform decisions on land use and development. Stony Plain’s population has grown to almost 18,000 residents and is forecast to continue growing in the next twenty years, the Town is focused on ensuring safe, appropriate, and affordable housing to address the needs of both the current and future population of Stony Plain.
