Important Notice from Clear Hills County: Beware of Spam/Fraud Emails

August 5 2025
We have recently seen an increase in spam and fraudulent emails being sent to residents and businesses.
 
Please be aware that Clear Hills County does NOT charge fees for Development Permits.
 
If you receive any email asking for payment or personal information related to Development Permits — or any other County services — and you are unsure about its legitimacy, please contact Clear Hills County directly before responding.
 
To verify an authentic Clear Hills County email, check that the sender’s address ends with:
(name or department)@clearhillscounty.ab.ca
 
When in doubt, reach out to us directly by phone or through our official website. Protect yourself from scams by staying vigilant!
 
Thank you for your attention.
— Clear Hills County Administration
