Thanks for applying your knowledge to this initiative, Brian. It's hard for laypeople to grasp what the heck the city is doing. The maps are super-confusing. Took me awhile to understand that the purple/orange one is where rezonings and public hearings won't be required, while the giant pink one that you didn't mention means SHI applies to virtually the whole city (but with rezonings required). What happens to all this when the Official Development Plan is passed next year?
Carol, thanks for reading. I probably should have mentioned the all-pink map—interesting the restful colours used throughout.
When the Vancouver PLan is adopted next year it will be the end of almost every public hearing in the city, until and unless the city stands up to the province—an unlikely proposition from the incumbents.
