About Olds
The town
Olds is a town of 9,209 people (2021) on the Queen Elizabeth II Highway corridor north of Calgary. Settlement began in 1890 when the railway reached a siding here, and the Canadian Pacific named the townsite after George Olds, one of its traffic managers. It became a village in 1896 and a town in 1905. Olds College of Agriculture & Technology opened in 1913 as a provincial school of agriculture and home economics; it now teaches agriculture, trades and technology and runs a research farm. The Town lists agriculture, construction, manufacturing and retail as its core industries. In town are an aquatic centre, an arena and sportsplex, a library, a museum and archives, and a campground. Olds Hospital & Care Centre on 57 Avenue has a 24-hour emergency department. Inside town limits, the Town issues development and building permits under its land use bylaw.
Around it
Mountain View County is the rural municipality around Olds, and the two share an intermunicipal development plan for the land near town. The county issues development permits and, once one is approved, building permits under Alberta's safety codes, as well as electrical, plumbing, gas and private sewage permits. Hillers Dam, a county day-use park east of town on Township Road 322, has picnic areas and walking trails, and its reservoir is stocked with rainbow trout every year. Highways 27 and 2A both reach the town, close to the Queen Elizabeth II Highway. Calgary International Airport is the nearest with scheduled flights.
