Summary

Summary#

The Department of Crown‑Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs published a notice that amends the Tla’amin Final Agreement to record that the parcel District Lot 4748 (PID 015-837-815) is now part of Tla’amin Lands. The parcel is recorded as having become Tla’amin Lands on March 8, 2017, and the amendment to Appendix C took effect on May 19, 2022.

What it does#

  • Adds Appendix C-5 (“Additions to Tla’amin Lands after the Effective Date”) to the Tla’amin Final Agreement.
  • Officially lists the legal description: District Lot 4748, Group 1, New Westminster District, PID 015-837-815, as an addition to Tla’amin Lands.
  • Publishes a map and textual description showing where the parcel sits (north of the municipality of Powell River and east of the Strait of Georgia).
  • Notes that the map is for illustration only and should not be used to establish legal boundaries.

Who's affected#

  • The Tla’amin Nation, whose land base is being officially updated in the agreement.
  • People living or working near Powell River and users of the land around District Lot 4748.
  • Local and provincial authorities and anyone with an interest in the parcel (for example, neighbouring landowners, planners, or developers).
  • The British Columbia Land Title Office, which uses the PID 015-837-815 for records.

If it’s unclear whether you have a personal or business interest in this parcel, official land-title records or the Tla’amin Nation’s administration are the places to check.

Why it matters#

  • The change updates the public, legal record to show that this specific parcel is part of Tla’amin Lands. That can affect who manages the land, who issues permits, and how the land is used or developed.
  • Neighbours, developers, and local governments may need to account for the Tla’amin Nation’s jurisdiction when planning activities involving the parcel.
  • The published map is illustrative only; anyone needing precise boundaries should rely on official land-title documents rather than the Gazette map.
