We argue for embedding land use policy in broader strategies of community development as a way of contrib-uting to the long-term success of communities and identify enabling factors for strategy formation and for co-ordination between land use policy and such strategy. In analysing eight case communities in Alberta, Canada, we identified several types of non-coordination involved: non-coordination between institutions organizing land use ('land use tools'), non-coordination between land use tools and broader development strategies and non-coordination between such strategies and circulating narratives on the long-term. Higher level actors, single sector economies, prior strategies, strength of local administration, identity and ideology are factors shaping the formation of strategy and the coordination between strategy, long-term perspectives and land use tools. If strategy emerges, it can compete with others, it can still be ignored, or undermined through exceptions, not communicating and not-updating. Local government does not always have a grip on its own future. Strategy is presented as both narrative and institution and slowly reveals itself as a function, not a form.
