An introduction to land use planning in Indigenous communities
Part 1: Pre-planning
What is a Land Use Plan and how do communities decide how they will create one? Many communities tackle these questions and more through a Pre-planning Workshop. This video discusses how to set up a pre-planning workshop to start your land use planning process.
Part 2: Creating a Land Use Plan
From establishing a vision for your community to gathering a planning team, this video covers the seven common steps to creating a new Land Use Plan.
Part 3: Bringing Your Plan to Life
Once we create the plan, how do we ensure that it doesn’t sit on a shelf? We bring the plan to life by making sure key decision makers have copies of the plan and use them to guide decisions about what gets built in the community. This video covers this and other strategies for making sure your community gets the most of out its new land use plan.
