Agricultural Land Reserve
Salmon River — Agricultural Land Reserve + Acreage
A focused reference on agricultural land reserve in Salmon River, drawn from the broader Salmon River area page — pulled out as its own page so it’s scannable on its own.
Most of Salmon River sits inside the Agricultural Land Reserve. The ALR is a provincial zone established under the Agricultural Land Commission Act and administered by the ALC. ALR-designated land is restricted to agricultural use unless a non-farm use is specifically permitted by ALC regulation.
Practical impacts at resale: dwelling-count limits (typically one principal dwelling plus permitted secondary forms — additional residences require ALC approval or fit within the recent reform allowances), no subdivision below ALC-set minimum parcel size, restrictions on non-farm use of buildings, and farm-classification implications for property tax. For any specific parcel, the ALR status is easy to confirm via the ALC Land Reserve Map before the offer.
