About Alma
The town
Alma had about 30,330 residents in 2021, down 1.4% from 2016, on about 195 km² of land. It lies at the east end of Lac Saint-Jean and is the seat of the MRC de Lac-Saint-Jean-Est. The lake drains through the Grande Décharge and Petite Décharge toward the Saguenay River; Rio Tinto's Isle-Maligne power station on the Grande Décharge, in Alma, and spillways on both rivers regulate the outflow. Rio Tinto also runs an aluminium smelter in the city. The Hôpital d'Alma has an emergency room open around the clock. The city's urban planning service issues permits under zoning bylaw 199-2012, which covers shorelines and farm and forestry uses; its online maps show lots, zoning and wetlands.
Around it
The city spans the northern and southern parts of the MRC; about 128 km² of its 232 km² (water included) is in Quebec's agricultural zone, according to the MRC's 2015 agri-food plan, with about 67 km² cultivated and 76 km² forest. A house, a subdivision or another non-farm use there generally needs CPTAQ authorization. The MRC's land use plan (schéma d'aménagement) frames local zoning and maps flood zones and shorelines. The Véloroute des Bleuets, about 257 km around the lake, starts in Alma. Route 169 circles the lake and meets Routes 170 and 172 at Alma; Route 170 is the main road to Saguenay. Saguenay-Bagotville Airport, 13 km from Chicoutimi, has daily flights to Montréal.
