Concerns about public involvement • Research via Parliamentary Library in 2009 • The “Little Mountain” model: meeting w/ Vancouver’s City Manager and Director of Planning • Meeting: 200 members of the West Point Grey Community Association; WPGCA exec meeting • Requests for meeting/briefing: Ministers of National Defence and Public Works) • Tabled petition in the House of Commons, calling for a full public consultation process • Met with the CEO of Canada Lands in June, 2014

  10. 2. Development plan Update • CLC is the developer • First Nations consultation and accommodation • Public consultation process (similar CLC projects) • Jericho Lands consultation timeline

  11. CLC the developer • NOT the “Little Mountain” model • In the process of acquiring property from DND • Priced at market value less clean-up; disposal • CLC produces a plan for development • Institutional and Public input sought • Plan approved by City of Vancouver • Development built and sold in stages • Profit to GOC
