Planning gives the community the
framework and process to:
- Examine its core values
- Create a vision for the future
- Work towards achieving that vision
While the base land use planning tools are
similar, every community is unique
Urban Systems has worked with numerous
FN communities throughout Canada – from BC to Nova Scotia – for nearly four decades
SLIDE 20
Planning issues are often a source of conflict, as
planning is a balance act between many competing interests
SLIDE 21
A key issue of planning is finding the right balance
between individual property interests the broader community interest

Prior to 1996, options for direct First Nation
land management were limited (self- government or treaties)
In February 1996, 14 Chiefs signed the
Framework Agreement with Canada for First Nations to manage their lands under their

Framework Agreement established the
Lands Advisory Board (LAB)
In June 1999, Canada enacted the First
Nations Land Management Act (FNLMA)

Once a First Nation has ratified the
Framework Agreement and has begun
- perating under its Land Code, thirty-four
(34) sections of the Indian Act related to land management no longer apply to the local FN’s reserve lands and resources
Other laws associated with Land Code
include:
- Matrimonial Property Laws
- Zoning and Land Use Laws
- Infrastructure, Development and Building Laws
- Financial Management Laws
- Others

Once the planning “rules” are set, important to
set out procedures in Law in order to follow and/or amend the plan
Under Land Code, Chief and Council are
generally given the responsibility to amend land use plan, but some tasks can be delegated to
- thers, including:
- Land Management Board / Advisory Planning
Commission
- Development Corporation
- Approving Officer / Lands Manager
Development Process Flowcharts are helpful ,
and provide application consistency to secure investment
