Neighbourhoods for a Sustainable Vancouver stands for…
Neighbourhood-based Real Democracy
Reform campaign finance: Regulators of land use policy should not be funded by those they regulate. The development industry is the largest funder of the NPA and Vision Vancouver.
Respect neighbourhoods: We promote local community grassroots planning processes that respect existing visions and local area plans.
Strengthen neighbourhood representation: Through partial or full wards, neighbourhood councils, community advisory bodies and other mechanisms such as polling on significant issues based on the voters’ list to determine public support.
Sustainability
Strive for a holistic balance: Environmental, social and economic sustainability implemented through community engagement.
Vancouver-based Solutions
Find solutions that work: Accommodate growth in ways that suit the uniqueness of Vancouver and the character of our neighbourhoods.We pledge to act on the public’s interest for the people of Vancouver.
Refreshments and snacks will be served.
Village engages individuals, neighbourhoods & organizations to take actions that build sustainable communities & have fun doing it. Join us!
