Residents pack community forum to demand new West End plan

WERA President in was quoted in an article in Xtra West, by Shauna Lewis in regard to
proposed new developments in the West End through the City of Vancouver Stir program:

“We’re not against density and we’re not against development,” says WERA’s current president, Brent Granby. “But [development] should conform to the urgent needs of the city.”

Granby says the only way WERA would support the STIR program was if it was reviewed and mandated to consider eco-sustainability, affordability and livability within the development and rezoning process. “We don’t support any development that doesn’t create affordability and ecological sustainability.”
