Access To Information Request and Protection of Personal Information
Lamont County is driven by accountability and transparency to our growing community.
On June 11, 2025, the Government of Alberta proclaimed two new Acts, replacing the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
A variety of public records are available on this website or for viewing at the Administration Building. Some records are not public, as information provided is protected by exemptions as per Alberta’s Access to Information Act (ATIA).
The Act provides access to information held by public bodies, specifically information which is not already publicly availably, either on the Lamont County website or by other means.
Private Information is protected under the Protection of Privacy Act (POPA). This Act controls the collection, use and disclosure of personal information by a public body. It allows individuals to request corrections to personal information about themselves.
If you have any questions about correcting your personal information, how Lamont County uses personal information, or the disclosure of personal information, please contact our Privacy Officer.
Please note that changes to your contact information can be handled by individual departments or our receptionist.
How to make an Access To Information Request:
- Complete the Request Access to Information Form.
- Pay the fee of $25 by cheque, cash, debit, or credit card (you can use Option Pay on this website). Requests will only be processed after this initial fee has been paid.
- Email your request to legislativeservices@lamontcounty.ca, or mail by Canada Post, or drop your request off at 5303-50 Avenue, Lamont, Alberta, T0B 2R0.
- Processing times for access requests vary by nature of the request.
Additional fees may apply for access requests.
