Discussion Between 2003/2004 and 2008/2009 land revenue accounted for 1.7% of total natural resource revenue (1.0% tenures; 0.7% sales). The energy and mining sector has been the largest contributor to tenure revenue while the residential sector has been the largest contributor to sales revenue. In terms of tenure revenue changes over time, energy and mining revenue has increased significantly, due largely to increased royalty revenue resulting from higher energy prices and production. By contrast, utilities and pipelines revenue has fallen significantly. From a sub-regional perspective, the Peace sub-region has led the way in generating tenure revenue. The South Coast sub-region has led the way in generating Crown land sales revenue. In the last few years, other sub-regions (primarily the Thompson-Okanagan) have experienced increased demand for Crown lands, which has resulted in higher government revenue. The growth in the Thompson-Okanagan has been driven largely by growth in the residential sector, and the tourism and accommodation sectors. There are a number of interesting contrasts between the sector shares of tenure revenue versus sales revenue. For instance, the residential sector made a much smaller contribution to average tenure revenue (8%) over the 2003/2004 to 2008/2009 period, than it did to average sales revenue (50%) over the same period. Similarly, agriculture and related activities contributed 11% to tenure revenue and 21% to land sales revenue. By contrast, the energy and mining sector accounts for a very small proportion of sales revenue at less than 1%, but contributes a much larger average of 39% to tenure revenue. Additional Information • Policy documents outlining the rent and royalty structure for various sectors: • Available: http://www.agf.gov.bc.ca/clad/land_prog_services/policies.html Crown Land: Indicators and 108 Statistics Report Over the 2003/2004 to 2008/2009 period, 88% of average sales revenue is concentrated in three industries: residential at 51%, agriculture and related activities at 22%, and manufacturing and commercial at 15%. Tenure revenue is spread more evenly across economic sectors, with the top three industries accounting for 60% of average yearly revenue. The contrasts between the composition of tenure and sales revenue can be explained by the differing land needs of sectors and sub-sectors of the economy. For instance, sectors such as agriculture and related activities and residential tend to require exclusive use of most of their land, while other sectors do not (see Section 3.6, Exclusive and Non-exclusive Use of Crown Land). Sectors also differ on the length of time for which the land is required. In general, sectors that require the exclusive use of land for long periods of time have a stronger interest in purchasing the land.
Appendix 1 Sector Descriptions Tenures and grants are issued for a variety of land use purposes. For the sake of making comparisons, the land use purposes and sub-purposes have been grouped under broader economic sectors. The table below defines the sectors used in this report; and shows the mapping used between the categories of the Tantalis purposes and sub- purposes, and the North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) categories. (This table does not show the detailed mapping at the Tantalis sub-purpose and NAICS four- and five-digit code level).
