# Planning & Development:
**SUBDIVISIONS**
Development Permits must be purchased before *any* development begins in the RM of Duck Lake. These permits are available at the office for a fee of $50 to $1500, depending on complexity of development.
In addition to the forms that are required, it is important to note the following:
Cash in lieu is required for each parcel subdivided. This amount is a minimum of $1,500, or 10% of the property value (unserviced) whichever is higher, per parcel. This amount must be paid for Community Planning to give permission to proceed.
Road development is the responsibility of the developer. All parcels MUST have access. If a road is built on RM road allowance, it must be up to the standards required by the foreman and Council. Once the road is constructed and the subdivision is occupied, the RM will maintain the road allowance as usual. Maintenance of driveways or lanes is the responsibility of the owner of the parcel. Custom work can be contracted with the RM (for a fee) to clear lanes and driveways if required.
These forms can be downloaded for subdivision information and applications.
