Supporting Jasper’s Rebuild

The Interim Industrial Park is a temporary, serviced industrial area created to support contractors, trades, and service providers displaced by the 2024 Jasper Wildfire. It ensures essential industrial operations remain active within Jasper while permanent facilities are rebuilt.

This site is part of Jasper’s Commerce Continuity Initiative (CCI), alongside the Pop‑Up Village and Contractor Laydown Areas, helping maintain local employment, economic stability, and efficient reconstruction.

Program duration

This three‑year program, ending in December 2027, supports displaced industrial businesses until permanent spaces are re‑established (individual leases may have different start/end dates). 

What the Interim Industrial Park offers

The Interim Industrial Park provides flexible outdoor space and modular units to support businesses needing temporary operational room during wildfire recovery. Tenants can use secure, serviced lots, MoJ‑supplied sea‑cans, or their own structures for:

• Storage and staging of tools, materials, trailers, equipment, and work vehicles
• Temporary workspaces for contractors, trades, or light industrial activities supporting the rebuild
• Modular unit options, including cold storage, units with personnel doors, heated or electrified workshops, and larger 40’ units
• Tenant‑supplied structures or equipment, where permitted

Monthly rental fees generally range from approximately $250 to $650, depending on unit size, setup requirements, and servicing needs.

Eligibility criteria

The Interim Industrial Park is designed for Jasper‑based businesses impacted by the 2024 wildfire that require temporary space to continue operations.

Eligible businesses must:

• Have been displaced or significantly affected by the 2024 wildfire
• Have previously used space in the S‑Block or lost functional commercial/industrial space
• Need temporary space suitable for an outdoor industrial yard
• Conduct activities that align with site, safety, and environmental requirements
• Follow all site rules, fire safety guidelines, and environmental expectations

If you’re unsure whether your business qualifies, our team can help assess your situation.

Eligibility & program timeline

This three‑year temporary program (that started in 2025) supports businesses while permanent facilities are rebuilt. Participation includes the following expectations:

• Eligibility continues only until a tenant re‑establishes permanent commercial space
• The program is intended as a temporary wildfire recovery solution, not a long‑term tenancy
• Tenants are encouraged to plan proactively for long‑term relocation
• All tenants must comply with site rules, safety requirements, and environmental guidelines

If you’re unsure how the program timeline applies to your situation, the team is available to help.
