This series consists of records relating to developing tools to support communities in economic and social crisis in BC. This includes providing economic and social support to communities in need such as resource dependent communities in immediate economic crisis caused by events such as mill closures, and inner-city urban areas experiencing economic and social issues. Records include agreement development, socio-economic background information, meeting materials, and draft agreements in Prince George and Victoria. These records were created by the Ministry of Community Development and the Ministry of Community Services from 2005-2009.
The records are arranged alphabetically by community name. They consist of correspondence, agendas and minutes, reports, news articles, draft agreements, and presentations. These records are classified under the 2006 version of the Local Government Services ORCS as community transition support policy and procedures files (55400-00).

The series consists of the meeting records of the board of examiners, a statutory body established under the Local Government Act (RSBC 1996, c. 323) to recognize and support the work of local government employees in the province by awarding certificates in local government administration through the certification program, and providing scholarship awards/financial assistance to local government employees who are pursuing courses leading to certification through the scholarship program. Established in 1948, the principal goal of the three-member board, appointed by the Lieutenant Governor in Council on the minister’s advice, is to improve the professional skills of British Columbia's local government administrators. These records were created between 1996 and 1998 under the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing.
The records are arranged chronologically by meeting date. They consist of correspondence, meeting minutes, annual reports, and meeting agendas. These records are classified under 55100-20 (meeting files) and 55100-25 (meeting minutes) of the Local Government Services ORCS approved in 2006.

The series consists of advisory and informational records developed by the provincial government for local governments to facilitate developing, adopting, and implementing regional growth strategies, which are strategic plans that commit participating municipalities and regional districts to a course of action to meet common social, economic, and environmental objectives, 1996-2006. The Local Government Act (RSBC 1998, c. 323) provides a framework for interactive planning between regional districts, municipalities, and the provincial government for creating these long-term land and resource management plans at the regional level. The plans often deal with rapid urban growth and its effect on matters such as air quality, affordable housing, transportation, drinking water, farmland, and wilderness, and natural areas. Some of the records in this series cover provincial government involvement in major projects such as large-scale transportation projects that may have significant environmental, economic, social, cultural, and health effects. The Local Government Department, part of the Ministry of Community Services and its predecessors, is responsible for this set of records.

This series is arranged by regional district or project name. The records include correspondence, memoranda, briefing notes, bylaws, minutes, agreements, and reports. The records are classified under growth strategy case files (55700-20) of the Local Government Services ORCS, 2006.

The series consists of records documenting situations where municipalities establish or join corporations for the purpose of carrying out commercial activities such as community forests or purchasing shares in a company to build infrastructure, such as arenas.

The Local Government Act (RSBC 1996, c. 323) provides that a local government may engage in commercial, industrial or business undertaking and incorporate a company or buy shares in a company already involved in the undertaking with the requirement that the local government receive approval from the Inspector of Municipalities.

The records are arranged by local government classification and then by the name of the municipality or regional district.
