File consists of a speech given by Gary Runka entitled "BC Experience: Establishing Priorities for the Use of Rural Land Resources" for the Canadian Institute of Planners Annual Conference in Kitchener, Waterloo.
Commentary on this speech by Barry Smith of the Ministry of Agriculture and Lands:
"This is a second speech GGR gave at the 1980 CIP Conference.
The 'rural' stage is set by stating that BC is 94% crown land of which 53% is unreserved crown land - so lots of rural land to plan for.
The paper largely outlines 8 examples of rural land use priorities in BC including:
- Integrating rural land use policy under the Environment and Land Use Act
- Agricultural Land Commission Act protecting farmland
- Forest and Range Act
- Municipal and Regional government community, settlement and regional plans - largely on non-crown land
- The Federal government's amended Fisheries Act
- Special Statutes Planning - The Islands Trust Act
- Crown land Planning Strategies
- Environment Planning via an Environment Act, Water Basin Plan and Wildlife along with complimentary legislation.
The paper helps to place the farmland preservation in the context with other land use planning efforts in British Columbia."
