Inputs to Growth Management Strategies
Greater Vancouver, BC
For the Greater Vancouver, Fraser Valley and Squamish-Lillooet Regional Districts, we analyzed employment distribution patterns, forecasted potential employment growth by sector and by location, and identified implications for land use and transportation planning. We identified realistic strategies for managing the distribution of employment growth, in order to achieve better overall balance between population and employment distribution throughout the region.
Financial Inputs to Growth Management Strategies for Communities
British Columbia
For various communities in BC we have developed financial models to help communities choose the most cost-effective locations or conceptual planning approaches in which to accommodate new residential or commercial development. We have completed projects of this type in such diverse communities as Coquitlam, Kamloops, Fort St. John, and Haida Gwaii (formerly the Queen Charlotte Islands).
