The idea is to provide housing in new strata developments for working people who are being priced out of the Victoria housing market, said Jonathan Tinney, the city’s director of planning. “This isn’t supportive housing where these are high-needs folks,” he said. “These are just households that happen to make a little bit less money than some of the people living as their next-door neighbours.” City staff estimate demand for below-market-price rental at 124 units a year — 20 per cent of the anticipated annual housing demand of 520 units. Those 124 units would include 74 for singles earning between $20,000 and $55,000 a year and 50 family units of two or more bedrooms, affordable to those earning between $35,000 and $85,000 a year. Mayor Lisa Helps called the recommendations “a good start,” noting she would like to see more focus on the provision of affordable three-bedroom units. Helps would like council to consider allowing 10 per cent more density in downtown developments than spelled out in the Official Community Plan in exchange for additional affordable units. “Overall, this is the direction we need to move,” she said. “Victoria is an inclusive city, and, if we want it to remain that way, we need to ensure that regular working people have homes here.” The inclusive housing policy would replace the city’s bonus density policy, making affordable housing units a priority over other amenities. 2 Comment(s) Scarlett 06 September 2018 05:38 This mayor seems to pull numbers out of thin air without any background to support it. She may be right or wrong, but she was proven wrong before. Luckily, elections are coming up soon. Ricketty Rabbit 06 September 2018 08:47 If something doesn't change, we'll have to do something in Vancouver to increase the number of affordable rental units. Many have commented here that more incentive is needed for investors, and I completely agree. I think Vancouver's problem might be alleviated by bringing back tax incentives for landlords. Subsidies are one solution, though I favour tax incentives first. Singapore and Hong Kong leaders know how important it is to keep housing costs low since they are important factors in salaries paid at the low end of the wage scale. Singapore subsidizes 80% of the housing in the City-state, while Hong Kong does the same for ~ 50% of its housing. If they didn't, the costs of all their products and services would be higher, which would be a disaster for their export based economies. Just as it will be for ours. EDITORIAL: Back to traffic North Shore News September 5, 2018 07:00 AM The more people who drive their kids to school, the less safe it is for those walking. file photo North Shore News It’s back to school for thousands of school kids on the North Shore this week. And back to school means back to traffic. In too many cases, traffic is parents driving their kids to school. related First bell: North Shore schools prep for new academic year The system whereby parents get to choose where their kids go to school – regardless of where they live – is partly responsible. Especially on the North Shore, specialty programs draw students from far outside their catchment areas, and even outside of the local school districts. One consequence is more cars on the roads near local schools. There are also plenty of older school-aged kids who could walk to school but don’t. Parents sometimes cite traffic safety as a concern. And in some cases, we’re certainly not doing all we could from a municipal perspective to provide infrastructure that would help – from decent sidewalks to well-marked crossings. “Walking school buses” that allow kids to buddy up with neighbours for a walk to school are a good option. Ironically, of course, the more people who drive their kids to school, the less safe it is for those walking. Other reasons for walking include providing increasingly sedentary kids with exercise and giving them a mental boost before sitting for much of the day. The power of habit is important. Get into the habit of walking or biking while in elementary school and that will be more likely to carry through the teen years into adulthood. Sadly, today only about half the number of kids walk to school than did when their parents were children. It doesn’t have to be this way.

  • I Learned to Ride a Bike As a Kid on the North Shore in the Late 1970S. I Started in My Backyard and Gradually Moved out Onto the Sidewalk
    AURELEA MAHOOD/ Riding the Shore I learned to ride a bike as a kid on the North Shore in the late 1970s. I started in my backyard and gradually moved out onto the sidewalk. Next it was up and down the alley, around the Boulevard, and across the playing fields at school. Then down into the ravine with its tangle of trails and dirt jumps. Little did I know that as I was learning bike basics, the North Shore was already on its way to becoming a by-word for steep technical stunt-heavy riding in the wet deep green rocky rooty slopes of the North Shore mountains. The bikes that now make their way up Cypress, Fromme, and Seymour in all seasons and all weather have a story that begins in California back when I was learning to ride my first two-wheeler. The impulse to yoke together the pleasures of riding with those of the trail had been coalescing up north too. In the mid-1980s, there were the guys a few grades ahead of me who turned up at school on their bikes in toques, black leggings, and grey woolen jerseys. I had no sense that my friends' older brothers were in the woods and that my childhood backyard could be navigated in ways that bore no relation to our family walks in Lynn Canyon and along the Baden Powell. What was going on had been going on since the early 1980s. School friends Ross Kirkwood and Brian Ford were among the earliest trail builders on the North Shore.1 In 1980, Ford lived on Peters near Lynn Canyon.

  • As Bike Use Rises, So Do Retail Sales in Thriving Market
    As bike use rises, so do retail sales in thriving market By Steve Frothingham n Vancouver, bike shops are like coee shops: ere’s one on every corner.” ‘ISo said Vancouver retailing veteran Michael eil, owner of the three-store chain Bicycle Sports Pacic. His comment was validated as the BRAIN Vancouver Dealer Tour pedaled from shop to shop around the city over three days in June. Sometimes we didn’t need our bikes: We could walk a few steps between shops. Despite the retail density, most shops appeared to be thriving; many owners and managers reported that their biggest challenge was oen getting and keeping employees in the booming economy (see related story on page DT2). e health of bike retailing in the third-largest metro area in Canada stems from several factors, but most notably from a massive investment in bike in- frastructure by the city, nearby municipalities and the provincial government over the past six years or so (see related story on pages DT2-3). e fast-growing popu- lation, dominated by folks who value healthy outdoor lifestyles, is largely in full support of the investment. Bike use is up, and so are bike sales. Vancouver’s North Shore, and other nearby rid- ing destinations like Squamish and Whistler, are re- nowned for their hard-core mountain biking, and re- tailers near those hot spots continue to sell big-dollar mid- and longer-travel bikes and related gear. We visited some of those shops in North Vancouver, near the North Shore riding area, on our second day (see related story on page DT3).

  • The North Shore Public Consistently Rates
    The North Shore public consistently rates trails as the most highly used of all park facilities - District of North Vancouver Parks and Open Spaces Strategic Plan, 2012 On behalf of the North Shore Mountain Bike Association, its members, Directors, and community stakeholders, thank you to our new mayor and members of council for your commitment to the District of North Vancouver; thank you to DNV Parks, Engineering, and Environment Staff for ongoing support, dialogue, and communication; and thank you to the previous council for their vision and financial commitments to the NSMBA. Without the support of the DNV, we would be unable to provide the health, social, and environmental benefits to the community do. NSMBA Council Delegation, April 1st, 2019 Supplement Background The North Shore Mountain Bike Association (“NSMBA”) is a not-for-profit charity organization which has advocated for and maintained mountain bike and multi-use trails on the North Shore for 21 years. We are volunteer-driven, dedicated to caring for an environmentally sustainable trail network within the community, with a mission of “Trails for all, trails forever”. The NSMBA currently maintains in excess of 80 kilometers of primarily multi-use trails on Mount Fromme and the base of Mount Seymour; many of these trails are on District of North Vancouver (“DNV”) Parklands. Since 2013, the NSMBA has formally delivered a structured trail maintenance program funded in part by the DNV on Mount Fromme, with the ​Community Driven Model for Sustainable Trail Maintenance (Appendix 1), and the ​Fromme Mountain Trail Maintenance Services Agreement. This model utilizes both paid trail crew, the volunteer leverage of the NSMBA, and additional community support ensuring a safe, progressive, ecologically sustainable trail network can be maintained for the trail users of the future, as trail use and outdoor recreation grow and increase the demands upon the network.
