.@veronikabyl co-chair of @VCPCbc speaking against the current plan for False Creek at council.
Says VCPC sees it is a missed opportunity. Criticizes the misuse of the word "equity" and calls the plan non-transparent and non-inclusive. Kept school board out of loop. #vanpoli

Last night at @ParkBoard we directed staff to improve our preparedness for extreme weather events such as recent heat dome. Key to this is a memo we received from the Vancouver City Planning Commission urging Council, PB to do more, quickly. Find memo here council.vancouver.ca/2021072…
