Vancouver is expected to grow by about 81,000 people by 2045.

On Monday, the City Council adopted an updated comprehensive plan and zoning code to help guide that growth. The plan and code support:
• More housing choices, affordability
• More jobs and economic opportunities
• Connected, walkable neighborhoods
• Protection of natural areas and the qualities that make Vancouver special

Changes will happen slowly over time, not all at once, as property owners bring forward projects in the years ahead and the City implements policies.

Pride Month is a time to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community in Vancouver. It’s also a reminder that everyone should feel welcome, safe, and respected in our city. Belonging does not happen on its own. It grows when we work together, remove barriers, and design our services and spaces so that all community members can take part.
