Create an Industrial Land Reserve to provide land for companies
"Make sure BC’s economy has the space to grow and create jobs through a new Industrial Land Reserve. As we attract more companies to British Columbia, we need to make sure there is land for them to set up, get to work, and create good-paying jobs. And with BC’s future prosperity on the line, we can’t leave this responsibility to chance. This reserve will inventory existing industrial lands and carry out a land-use needs assessment that anticipates our growing economic needs, and clean up and revitalize vacant industrial sites. We will work with partners to attract new investment. The results: more industrial projects that create jobs and a secure tax base for local governments to deliver services and infrastructure for people." — An Action Plan for You, retrieved 2024-10-07
