The District sponsored an application to the Agricultural Land Commission to remove 7.28 hectares within six parcels of land from the ALR located in the Glenmore industrial area. The parcels are within the boundary of the Area Services Plan to be completed by the District in 2023. The plan is the beginning of the redevelopment of the Glenmore Industrial lands and removal of the ALR designation is required prior to the redevelopment. The ALR is BC’s provincial zone that preserves agricultural land for the future. Portions of the six parcels in the District’s exclusion application are within this zone but are not currently used for agricultural purposes. Although led by the District, the private owners of these parcels are in agreement with the request to remove the ALR designation. The Agricultural Land Commission will make the final decision.
