Residents living in the area of Parkland County's Chickakoo Lake are rallying against a multi-million dollar development they say threatens the area's environmental future. The Chickakoo Lake Recreation Area is a park north of Stony Plain that features 480 acres of woodland and lakes. In a statement to CBC News, Parkland County said administration is ensuring the development adheres to the conditions of its development permit and provincial environmental requirements. It said the development permit is too late to reverse as the decision was made years ago. Parkland County administration approved the development permit to transform the facility in July 2018.
