Though these facilities are reopening, the County reminds anyone with concerns about coming to the buildings in person that they can also call 403-782-6601, email info@lacombecounty.com, or reach the County through the online service request portal, and through its Facebook page.

Face-to-face council meetings will continue. Municipal staff and the public are encouraged not to gather in council chambers unless participating in the meeting. Lacombe County is allowing people to virtually attend council and MPC meetings via Zoom (full details are on our website at www.lacombecounty.com).

Highlights of our meetings are posted to the website shortly after each County council meeting.
