Harold FosterThe RM of Bifrost-Riverton's planning a tax incentive to draw businesses to their jurisdiction. Reeve Harold Foster outlines the progress.

"We have an industrial park at Arborg in conjunction with the Town of Arborg. And we're also looking at allocating an industrial area by Riverton. We want to be able to create incentives to get people to locate there rather than in outlying areas which require more costs per services."

He notes the type of businesses they're targeting.

"It's an incentive to draw people to our area for business. It's commercial enterprises -- manufacturing, and stuff like that. We do have some manufacturing people in our municipality. We're not there yet. But we're talking to people to see what they expect. We're talking to other jurisdictions to find out what they do, and eventually we will come up with an incentive policy."
