From the local and municipal level to the provincial level, residents of Alberta are able to guide land use to varying degrees. In some decision-making processes residents have a say, in others they do not. As development moves more and more to our backyards there is an increased chance of conflicting values when it comes to land use.

When do the decision makers have to listen? And is participation the exercise in futility it often seems?
