Advocacy

We see it as our responsibility to advocate for a city with diverse housing for all neighbourhoods. We want people in our community to see options that reflect their needs, whether they call Victoria home today or wish to someday soon.

Advocacy in development means innovation across a full spectrum of housing types.

This includes fostering a strong vision for what a city can be.

A healthy place with leafy neighbourhoods where we can afford to raise our kids.

A city with exceptional urban design, public spaces and architecture that enhances the public realm.

A place where lack of housing doesn't hinder businesses from retaining and attracting exceptional talent.

A city where you can walk or ride from your home to your favourite coffee shop, park, gym, grocery store, barber or pool, back to the coffee shop and then to a pub—all in the same day.

A place with welcoming, shared neighbourhoods that celebrate diverse lifestyles and needs.

Principles

A thoughtful approach to the built environment promotes thriving, resilient communities and enriched natural environments for current and future generations.

From greenspace and transit corridors, to the public realm and private homes, we’re advocating for a city with a healthy sense of space and place.
