This book was released on 1984 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The key issue examined is the impact of CMHC infrastructure assistance on the nature, form, and location of development vis-a-vis the rural land resource. Assessment of impact includes both financial leverage (CMHC funding causing infrastructure development to occur) and on-the-ground leverage (the CMHC funded infrastructure influencing the form and location of urban development). This evaluation is from the point of view of impacts on the use and management of the land resource under the guidelines of the Federal Policy on Land Use (Canada/Government of Canada, 1981)"--Executive Summary, p. v.

Download or read book The Impact of Exurbanite Settlement in Rural Areas written by James D. McRae and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The migration of urban people to urban-shadow areas in Canada represents a reversal of rural population trends. The impact of this resettlement can be both favourable and unfavourable. A resettlement of the eastern Ontario/western Quebec study area from 1972 to 1979 was mainly generated by exurbanites from Montreal and Ottawa. This resettlement has generally strengthened rural socio-economic infrastructures and maintained farmland in agricultural use. However, the demand for primarily subdivided properties is decreasing the availability and increasing the value of quality farmland. While farmers may turn to land rental, short-term agreements contribute to exploitation of the soil resource. The anticipation of higher land values could also contribute further to economic uncertainty and eventually to a lowering of agricultural productivity"--Abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Nova Scotia, the debate over the right to develop agricultural land versus the role of government in protecting the land has recently intensified. [...] NOVA SCOTIA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE 5. A REVIEW OF INITIATIVES INTENDED TO CONSERVE AGRICULTURAL LAND Objective The objective of this review is to provide a description of programs/policies/methods that jurisdictions around the world have used to protect agricultural land from other types of development. [...] In Ontario, the provincial government introduced legislation that allows for agricultural easements; however, donors are subject to capital gains taxes on the donation because under the Income Tax Act the land owner disposed of some value of the land.17 This cost is partially offset by a tax receipt issued by the conservation organization holding the easement, assessed for the difference in land v [...] In Colorado, land owners receiving this tax credit for their charitable donation can sell a portion of the credit to a third party to use on their tax return.19 This can be very beneficial for the land owner because the value of the credit can be higher than taxes owed and can be carried over NOVA SCOTIA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE 15 A REVIEW OF INITIATIVES INTENDED TO CONSERVE AGRICULTURAL LAND on [...] The United States has seen the benefit of easements for almost 25 years, and the USDA funds a federal easement program in co-operation with land trusts and other conservation organizations.20 Though there is a direct cost to the federal government through either the purchase of easements or the loss of tax revenue, the benefits of collaboration with organizations and the permanent protection are a.

Download or read book A Method to Assess the Implications of Future Urban Expansion on Rural Land written by Chris Cocklin and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Canada, as elsewhere, there has been an outward expansion of urban centres in order to accommodate the land demands for urban activities. A variety of resource conflicts have arisen as a result, one of the most actively discussed in recent times being the development for urban uses of land with high capability for renewable uses. While there have been numerous studies undertaken in an effort to estimate the extent and rate of conversions of rural land, especially agricultural land, to urban land uses, there has been much less attention devoted to estimating the extent and possible implications of future land conversions. In this report an approach to estimating future rural to urban land conversions is described and a method to assess the implications of land conversions in terms of the land resource for rural land use activities is developed. A pilot study, implemented to assess the implications of future land conversions for agriculture in Ontario, provides an illustration of the approaches described"--Abstract.
