The Joyce-Collingwood Precinct Review is going to City Council for approval. If passed, the neighbourhood will drastically change with high rise towers, apartments, and townhomes, eventually displacing existing retail and residents.

JARA is asking City Council to vote down the plan until single family homes are protected and the community is genuinely consulted. We need concrete plans for affordable social housing and community amenities.

Thurs June 15, 9:30AM – Speak to Council, come support Joyce Residents!

(The agenda was just released and the plan will be discussed at council’s standing meetings at 9:30am on both days. Please email nicole.ludwig@vancouver.ca, laura.kazakoff@vancouver.ca, mayorandcouncil@vancouver.ca and JoyceStationReview@vancouver.ca to ask for evening meetings!)

Other dates:
Thurs June 9 at 6:30p – Preparation meeting at Collingwood Neighbourhood House
Wed June 14, 9:30a – Council presentation at City Hall

We are looking for speakers and volunteers to help bring a mass of support to City Hall!
