Almost 5 years to the day, I'm officially a legal urban beekeeper in Edmonton. My license came in the mail today. The application process didn't take long, about a week. However, due to some changes at Alberta Agriculture it has been taking people a while to acquire their Premise Identification #. By-law has been saying that you can apply without it, just put "Waiting PID#" in the space where they ask for it. I ended up calling Alberta Ag and the nice lady said if you want to expedite the process use your LINC number when they ask for your location, not your address or GPS coordinates. Your LINC# can be found at the top left hand side of your land title document.
Good luck to all the new beekeepers in Edmonton!
