SAFETY & SECURITY PATROL ~ 604-968-8058 Notice of Work MIB Public Works & Housing
April 5, 2019
As you may be aware, we are considering future options for multi-family housing in our community. Planning is in its earliest stages.
To help inform these plans, the Housing Department, on behalf of the Band, will be undertaking technical work and studies on various sites and areas, including Crown Place and the foreshore lands. This work will include surveying, archaeological work, geotechnical and environmental soils testing, traffic pattern studies and civil engineering.
This work is needed to investigate the suitability of various areas for possible future development of community facilities and multi-family development. It will also inform our assessment of potential approaches for creek and waterways protection and future flood mitigation measures.
The first work scheduled will be soils testing on the south side of Musqueam Avenue, west of the Longhouse, starting on April 11, 2019 at 8:00am. You may notice workers on site and in the community over the coming weeks.
We'll be sharing more details on potential plans for housing, and next steps in the planning process, later this month.
The proposed date for a community info session is currently April 24th at 5:30pm. Please save the date! We will finalize and send out an invitation to community members as soon as possible.

The Musqueam people have lived in our present location for thousands of years. Our traditional territory once occupied much of what is now Vancouver and surrounding areas. The name Musqueam relates back to the flowering plant, ma9kway, which grows in the Fraser River estuary. There is a story that has been passed on from generation to generation that explains how we became known as the xwma9kwayam (Musqueam) - People of the ma9kway plant. Although a metropolitan city has developed in the heart of Musqueam territory, our community maintains strong cultural and traditional beliefs. Today our population flourishes and we are a strong community of over 1,300 members. To learn more about Musqueam, please visit www.musqueam.bc.ca.
At Musqueam we strive to create a progressive workplace.

By contrast, boil water advisories issued due to the detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in drinking water samples accounted for 5% . Boil water advisories related to other microbiological water quality parameters, such as the detection of total coliform bacteria or unacceptable turbidity levels, accounted for 17% of total boil water advisories.

Our purpose is to inspire, prepare and empower BC youth for life-long success, with a long term objective that all youth have access to a JABC program. In operation since 1955, JABC partners with educators, donors and volunteers to bring real world experiences into the classroom. JABC is hiring a Manager, Indigenous Programs, to increase the delivery of programs in Indigenous communities. This is a key leadership position, critical to the successful implementation of JABC's new strategic plan Bright Futures for all BC's Youth. Over the next five years, JABC plans to expand service to Indigenous youth across BC by delivering more JA programs into their communities. This is an exciting opportunity for JABC to build on a 2017 pilot program that resulted in the delivery of 13 Be Entrepreneurial programs in 8 First Nations communities, as well as other program deliveries to Indigenous students in BC public schools. The Manager, Indigenous Programs will be responsible for ensuring the program delivery model is suitable to the unique needs of Indigenous youth including defining target age range of student participants, program structure, outside-the-classroom deliveries, and remote location deliveries. Programs must also reflect the historical, cultural and economic context of Indigenous students.

With the help of her First Nation caregiver Ts'ek Sum, and her grandson Chilh, Foo-Ling escapes a crushing blow that would have her feet broken and bound to three inches in length, a fate that would have crippled her from any independence. Based on the history of the B.C. gold rush, the Tsilhqot'in (Chilcotin) uprising and the director's personal history. This 20 minute short film Ts 'ekoo Cha Ke is written in Dakelh/Southern Carrier First Nations Language, Chinook Jargon, Chinese and English to reflect the authentic dialogue people used to converse with each other at that time.
