City Conversations: Need for a city-wide plan? – Nov 20

Does Vancouver need a city-wide plan?

.

What would be the benefits of a new attempt to create a city-wide plan that defines where growth would take place, what could that process look like, and what hazards would that process face?
To present this big topic, City Conversations has joined with the Vancouver City Planning Commission. We’re pleased to host Patrick Condon, Chair of Urban Design at UBC’s School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture; Peter Whitelaw, Principal at the planning group Modus, and experienced in creating and updating plans for other BC municipalities, and Ann McAfee, who was Vancouver’s co-Director of Planning (with Larry Beasley), and guided the 1995 CityPlan.
The Vancouver City Planning Commission has compiled a list of background information and will post excerpts from the City Conversations on its website.
