VIEW Community Forest Overview and Task Force Report
The City of Terrace sees the establishment of a Community Forest as part of a long-term solution to the problems we are currently facing in the region, as well as an opportunity to promote management of the area’s forest resources. Some of the benefits to the region if this initiative is successful will be:
Improved Opportunities to Access Fibre for Local Business and Entrepreneurs;
Educational Opportunities for Community Colleges whose Students are Planning Careers in the Forestry Industry;
Local Jobs for the Skilled Work Force in the Region;
Practicing Alternative Environmentally Friendly and Innovative Harvesting Techniques;
Recreational Opportunities with the Development of Regional Sites;
Reducing the Impact on Local Business of Fluctuations in Markets. Smaller Specialized Operations will not Create such an Economic Impact during these Fluctuations than that of the Current Large Licence Holders;
Goods and Services Bought Locally will Benefit the Entire Community.
