But municipal finances do not receive the same degree of public scrutiny as more senior governments. This can pose a problem for taxpayers and voters who want to understand how their municipal government performs, especially compared to other municipalities. To help create awareness and encourage debate, this report provides a summary analysis of important financial information for 17 of the 21 municipal- ities in Metro Vancouver, spanning a 10-year period (2002–2012). The intention is not to make an assessment of any municipality’s finances—for instance, whether taxes or spending are too high or whether municipal governments produce good value for taxpayers.

  • To View Frequently Asked Questions and Answers About the Return to School This September
    West Vancouver Schools RETURN TO SCHOOL FAQS September 2, 2020 Learning Options and Cohorts What options are available beyond in-person learning? Home Schooling - This is an alternative method of teaching outside of the BC education system. Typically, a family member delivers and is responsible for designing the entire educational program for their child at home. Homeschooling programs are not supervised by a B.C.-certified teacher. Distributed Learning (DL) - This has always been an alternate to in-person learning that allows students to access learning on their own terms with limited in-person sessions. Teachers often teach via video conferences, email and through other means. In K-9 this is for a full program; in grades 10-12 it is for individual courses. West Vancouver does not have its own DL Program, but there are various options available to students all across the province. Temporary Transition - For K-9 students who are not ready to return to in-person learning this September, we are working to develop a temporary transition program that will allow students to be attached to their school while receiving some of their education at home as we support a transition back to full time in-person learning through the fall. This program will start the week of September 21st. How do we access different options for the fall? We are asking families to have a discussion with their school principals / vice-principals. Each set of circumstances is different and this way we can help personalize the best option for your child. While the conversations are localized, the options are consistent across all schools.

  • West Vancouver Archives
    House Research Guide Are you interested in the story behind your house? Do you want to find out when it was built or who lived there? The Archives has a number of resources that document the history of West Vancouver’s homes. Visit us at: westvancouver.ca/archives Or at 680 17th Street, West Vancouver during our public research hours: Wednesday and Thursday 1:00–4:30 Tax Assessment Rolls (1912 to 1974) Get started by determining when your house was built. Tax assessment rolls are the official records of property values and taxes owed, dating to the incorporation of the municipality in 1912. The information found in the registers can be used to determine when a house was built, the size and value of the land and structure, and the names of the property owners. To access this information, you’ll need the property’s legal address (district lot, block and lot number), which can be found on WestMap. Go to westvancouver.ca/maps. BC Directory (1920, 1921, 1935, 1937-1942, 1944-1994): Directories can be used to trace the occupancy history of your home. West Vancouver was first listed in 1934. Listings may include ownership, spouse name, occupation, and address. Fire insurance plans and legend (1930, 1938) If your house was built prior to 1938, the insurance plans will show details of the lot and building construction. Historical and aerial photographs, maps Search the Archives’ online database for your address, street name, or neighbourhood to find photographs or maps of your house.
