  • Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako)
    Agricultural Land Use Planning in Northern British Columbia Case Study of Smithers Telkwa Rural Area (Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako) FINAL REPORT Dr. David J. Connell Associate Professor University of Northern British Columbia May, 2015 Agricultural Land Use Planning in Northern British Columbia FINAL REPORT: SMITHERS TELKWA RURAL AREA CASE STUDY Executive Summary In this report we present the results of a case study of agricultural land use planning in the Smithers Telkwa Rural Area (STRA), the rural area that surrounds the Town of Smithers and the Village of Telkwa in British Columbia. The STRA is part of Electoral Area A in the Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako (RDBN). The study involved an assessment of the breadth and quality of the local legislative framework that governs agricultural land use planning, including policies, legislation, and governance. We assessed the strength of the local framework for agricultural land use planning using four principles as criteria: maximise stability, integrate public priorities across jurisdictions, minimise uncertainty, and accommodate flexibility. The study also involved an assessment of the political context within which agricultural land use planning takes place and decisions are made. This part of the assessment included documentation and analysis of three policy regimes: farmland preservation, global competitiveness, and food sovereignty. A policy regime refers to the combination of issues, ideas, interests, actors, and institutions that are involved in formulating policy and for governing once policies are devised. The aim of the case study is to contribute to three areas of knowledge. The case study lends insight to the state of agricultural land use planning in the RDBN.
