Vancouver and Eco-Density

by Sebastian on June 19, 2007

For those of us that are interested in real estate in this city, there’s a new website that’s worth checking out. The city recently adopted a new strategic plan for development in the city which they have termed EcoDensity.

In a nutshell, EcoDensity is an attempt by the city to reduce our ecological footprint. They are attempting to work out how to allow the city to continue to grow sustainably, simultaneously maintaining our “livability” and increasing affordable housing.

 These are all goals that most residents of the city can agree upon, but the challenge is a large one. At this point, the plan is in it’s early stages. There are opportunities for public input as the process is currently in the consultation stage. If you are interested in shaping this city’s future, this might be a great opportunity.
