- The Park Board undertook its last major park plan in 1992 and set a policy to acquire and assemble land to provide 1.1 ha (2.75 acres) of “neighborhood parkland” (all parks excluding destination parks) per 1,000 residents. The current number is 1.06 ha per 1,000 residents, but Vancouver is becoming much more dense. By 2041, Vancouver’s population is predicted to grow by 150,000 people.
