ULI British Columbia: A Conversation with Mayor Kennedy Stewart

Webinar Summary: Currently, the City of Vancouver and Mayor Stewart are setting their priorities on 3 initiatives. Housing: offering affordable housing for individuals to stay, live and build a future; Skytrain from Arbutus to UBC: working with partners on preliminary design with a goal to secure funding for final approval; and Drugs and the City’s overdose crisis: looking at next steps to prevent drug poisonings and overdose deaths, including advocating and supporting a safe supply of drugs. Along with these priorities, the City also is living through the COVID-19 pandemic. We look forward to hearing from Mayor Stewart to learn what the City has planned for economic recovery post the pandemic.
