#Victoria likes to pat itself on the back & call itself “green” when in fact it is a CARTOWN dependent on cars & still horribly dangerous for cyclists!
Don’t get me started on #Saanich …

I opine that it’s not too late to send them back to the drawing board.
And goodness sake, Councils (3). Don’t hide behind outdated, in camera, readings of a secret report. Show the people. Publish the report. Release it publicly.
Renew effort to re-site Ops, maybe outside #saanpoli, maybe #yyjpoli

Congrats to the SOS on the AAP signatures.

I guess I wonder:
If Saanich goes ahead and…
- Subdivides the property
- sells the air leases for the affordable housing and mixed use development along McKenzie
- uses that money to restore the creek

Thanks to all the #Saanich residents who came and participated in our 2nd town hall.
It is important to hear feedback and I am here for it; even when it is critical.
Thanks also to the Victoria and Vancouver Island Greek Community Society for the use of your venue.

Very interested to hear back from the #Saanich #yyj #VictoriaBC report.
I hold my opinion til May.
On The Island with Gregor Craigie: Victoria-Saanich Citizen's Assembly has spent the last 6mo researching whether the two municipalities should amalgamate.

There were 2 amendments:
Focus the density reductions in the plan to Quadra North quadrant.
Council will get a check-in of the revised Draft Plan before it goes out for more public engagement.
We expect plan back in +/- 3 months for review.

Far as I can tell, nobody last night spoke to #saanich council, for or against, abt GHG reductions as KPI.
Many spoke nebulously abt climate crisis. Or abt ecosystem sustainability.
But not about GHG mitigation pathways, degrees of wedged reductions tied to density/efficiency 😔

Dear #saanpoli
There is a lot more to consider than NIMBY conservation 🆚 YIMBY housing supply.
The QMP has about 1000 things I would improve or change about it.
And yet it is one of the best planning documents I have ever seen. And it was done by a muni of adult pop 100k.
Incredible. 👏

After hearing from ~86 people (thank you all for the input) from 6-11:15pm Tuesday, we voted to postpone consideration of the revised report the on Quadra-McKenzie Plan in #Saanich until Feb 24 when we will answer all the public’s questions and then debate the matter.
