Tues, Nov 23: Session to explore the future of Land Use Planning in the Province
9:00 am – 3:00 pm, Comfort Inn, St. John’s
The Provincial Council of the Rural Secretariat is holding a session to explore the future of Land Use Planning in the Province. The objectives for the session are: 1) To examine the current status of land use planning as it exists in the province; 2) To discuss the issues relating to land use planning in the province; 3) To provide the Provincial Council with information that will inform their work in the development of a policy advice document on land use planning for submission to the Provincial Government. The session will bring together a diverse cross-section of people with an interest or stake in land use planning in this province (e.g. stakeholders involved with forestry, mining, agriculture, municipalities, etc). Participants will be asked to thoughtfully consider how best to advance land use planning processes in NL. They will share their individual ideas, and will reflect upon and discuss a variety of different approaches to land use planning. All ideas and insights generated during this session will be thoughtfully considered by the Provincial Council as they refine an advice document about LUP to be presented to the Provincial Government.
