Crown Land Management administers, allocates, adjudicates, documents and manages Crown land tenures for land programs assigned to ILMB, ensures compliance with the terms of tenure documents, and enforces the related statutes and legal agreements. Crown land management also supports the strategic demands for Crown land from First Nations and local governments, other economic development opportunities, and supports improved relationships with First Nations; including reducing the gap between First Nations and other British Columbians with respect to economic growth.
Land Use Management
Land Management includes coordinating access to tenures, permits, licences, Crown land sales and grants; coordinating multi-agency consultation engagement agreements with First Nations on land and resource issues including implementation of land use planning agreements; and managing and providing land and resource geographic information and spatial analysis.
Strategic Land Use Planning
The Integrated Land Management Bureau provides leadership for developing land use plans and agreements for B.C.'s Crown land and coastal marine resources.
Through Resource Management Coordination (RMC), the Province is implementing an integrated approach to integrated service delivery.
The First Nations Initiatives Division’s (FNID) mission under RMC is to lead the natural resource agencies through two primary business lines:
- Creating a “virtual integration of aboriginal relations” across resource agencies through the development and implementation of consistent plans, policies, procedures and tools; and
- Developing strategic agreements with First Nations that will improve the Province’s investment climate, reduce the consultation burden on all parties, create enduring forums for government-to government engagement and achieve the goals of the Transformative Change Accord.
