Particular areas of land can be utilized by humans in diverse ways. These can include residential, institutional, business, industrial, agricultural, forestry, park. (anitpromoters.com)


Impact on land use and property taxes

Tax implications
The City of Regina and the R.M. of Sherwood are discussing tax implications for the R.M. of Sherwood and property owners that are included in the municipal boundary alteration proposal. The City will pay to the R.M. a tax loss compensation amount, which is yet to be negotiated. The tax impact on individual property owners will depend upon the use of land and level of development.

If the proposed municipal boundary alteration occurs, the City of Regina would collect taxes on the included properties.
Land use implications
The City recommends that if municipal boundary alteration occurs, the affected properties be zoned UH – Urban Holding under Regina Zoning Bylaw No. 9250. The UH zone is currently applied to areas within the City of Regina that are held to accommodate future urban development. The lands would be rezoned through time to a more appropriate zoning designation as development proposals are received throughout these areas.

The UH zone is intended in part to provide for orderly transition from agricultural land to other uses in areas planned for eventual urban development and to ensure that future development is compatible with local land use plans and policies. Agricultural production is a permitted land use in the UH zone and agricultural uses that are not associated with nuisance factors will be allowed to continue.

Particular areas of land can be utilized by humans in diverse ways. These can include residential, institutional, business, industrial, agricultural, forestry, park, and other relatively natural land uses. Each of these broader categories can be further subdivided, based on the nature and intensity of the activities that are undertaken.

Residential land uses, for example, can involve single-family dwellings on large or small lots, or aggregations of multiple-unit dwellings of various sorts. The most intensive residential land-uses are associated with clusters of apartment buildings, which can support extremely large densities of human populations.

Institutional land uses are mostly associated with land that is occupied by public buildings such as schools, universities, government office buildings, art galleries, and museums. These facilities are most commonly located in urban or suburban areas. Business land uses are rather similar in many respects, and are mostly associated with land that is appropriated to retail facilities of various types, and with office buildings.
