To set direction towards a bright and sustainable future, the District has just launched a comprehensive review of its Official Community Plan (OCP). ‘Identity DNV 2030’ is an 18-month long planning and engagement effort that seeks extensive community input to shape the new OCP.
An Official Community Plan (OCP) is an important document that sets direction for growth, transportation, housing, services and infrastructure while considering health, diversity, the natural environment, climate change, and the local economy. This review will be an open and inclusive process, engaging the community throughout the process in order to develop a long term vision for the District’s future, and a means to achieve it.
Three community events will be held in June as a way to raise awareness of the OCP review, and to ensure the broadest possible participation of District citizens and stakeholders in the process.
Learn more about the OCP Review Process and June Meetings here.

The
Conservation Commitment contest is over - but it's not too late to learn about
better everyday choices that make our region more sustainable and make a difference
in the world.
In fact, making a difference is surprisingly easy. This program, created by the Greater Vancouver Regional District, BC Hydro, Translink, Vancity, The Vancouver Sun and The Province, shows you how simple it is to do one small thing to help our environment.
And doing the small stuff adds up to big benefits. We'll not only save costs and protect the environment; we'll also conserve resources for our children, and their children.
