The Real Property Rights Committee will be holding an in-person public meeting on April 14 at 10:30 a.m. in Eckville.

This Thursday, the Legislative Assembly of Alberta’s Select Special Committee on Real Property Rights will be having discussions with the public on issues related to its mandate.

The meeting will be held until 12:30 p.m. at Eckville’s Royal Canadian Legion Branch 156 (5027 51 Ave.).

“The committee wants to hear from Albertans who own or have an interest in real property in the province,” said R.J. Sigurdson, MLA for Highwood and committee chair. “To complete a fulsome review, it is very important that the committee hears from people who are directly impacted by issues relating to real property and ownership in Alberta.”

The Special Committee was established to complete is mandate by Dec. 15, 2021 but was extended to June 15, 2022. The mandate consists of various property rights issues such as adequacy of legal remedies for real property owners, whether rights should be expanded or constitutionally protected, and more.
