Included in the Draft Greenest City Action Plan.
An error occurred while saving the comment Water-metering disproportionately affects low-income and poor people and shouldn't be instituted in Vancouver. Those who use the most water (swimming pools, large lawns, etc) aren't likely to cut down and in the meantime everyone else has to pay more for less. That's pretty inequitable for a city also aiming to end homelessness (higher utility fees equal higher rents and as Zaelia points out, renters have no control over what landlords do in terms of water conservation and passing fees on to their tenants)

A critical challenge for Vancouver. Laneway housing, STIR, the 20% Inclusionary Zoning Policy, and other programs and policies are intended to help increase housing affordability— see http://vancouver.ca/housing. The draft Greenest City plan recognizes the importance of affordability and will review additional strategies, e.g. unbundled parking.

An ongoing process. Many of the City’s recent initiatives (e.g. downtown separated bike lane trial, additional traffic calming on existing routes) work towards this vision. The draft Greenest City action plan will support this idea, and include directions to help inform the upcoming transportation plan update and new active transportation plan.

Education and training around energy efficiency are an integral part of the draft Greenest City Action Plan. Occupants determine to a large degree the level of energy performance in a building.
