8 Regional Growth Strategy Goals GOAL 1 Create a Compact Urban Area GOAL 2 GOAL 3 Support a Sustainable Economy Protect the Region s Environment and Respond to Climate Change GOAL 4 Develop Complete Communities GOAL 5 Support Sustainable Transportation Choices
9 Goal 1: Create a Compact Urban Area Establish an Urban Containment Boundary Identify priority areas for growth Urban Centres and Frequent Transit Development Corridors Identify Rural areas and limit urban development on those lands
10 Contain Urban Growth
11 Newly Developing Areas: Planned Population Capacity Source: GVRD 2006
12 2/3 of new growth to Urban Centres and Frequent Transit Development Areas Create and Connect Vibrant Centres
13
14 Rural Areas
15 Rural Areas in Maple Ridge
16 Goal 2: Support a Sustainable Economy Encourage jobs close to where people live Protect the region s industrial land supply Protect the region s agricultural land and promote agricultural viability
17 Responding to Employment Dispersal Distribution of Office Floorspace Growth in Metro Vancouver ( ) Metro Core 40% (7.4 M sq ft) Out of Centres 49% (9.1 M sq ft) Regional City Centres 11% (2.1 M sq ft)
18 Efficient Transportation - How workers get to work Metro Core Walk Transit Auto Metrotown Metrotown Office Park 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100%
19 Greenhouse Gas emissions from travel to work Metro Core Commuter GHG Emissions from 200 employees Metrotown Metrotown Office Park Tonnes per Year
20 RGS Issue Industrial Lands Most employment dispersal has been the result of industrial lands being developed for non-industrial uses: cheaper land, cheaper development costs (tilt up construction, surface parking) attracts developers higher taxes, off site amenity improvements, more attractive form of development, higher employment attracts municipalities
21 Industrial and Mixed Employment Areas Slide of industrial lands
22 Protect Agricultural Land and Viability
23 Agricultural Areas
24 Goal 3: The Region s Environment Protect the Region s Natural Assets Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions
25
26 Conservation and Recreation Areas
27 Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions Metro Vancouver GHG Emission Sources Heating Buildings 31% Other Vehicles 10% Misc. 4% Industrial 20% How we got around in 2006 Transit 11% Bicycle 2% Cars & Trucks 35% Walking 11% Motorized Vehicle 76%
28 Goal 4 Complete and Healthy Communities An Aging Population:
