St. Albert Strategic Plan

The St. Albert Council Strategic Plan identifies what Council will focus on during its term of office. The Plan was informed by the City’s existing Vision, including the Pillars of Sustainability. The 2022-2025 Council Strategic Plan outlines five key areas of focus and associated Strategic Priorities, presented in no particular order of importance.
