Background<\/h3>\n

The\u00a0Vancouver City Planning Commission<\/a>\u00a0has been working with planners, architects, landscape architects, developers, urban historians, academics and engaged urbanists to compile a list of significant planning and development milestones from the time of early First Nations settlement to the present.<\/p>\n

The result is an\u00a0online chronolog<\/a>y that provides snapshots of events that affected the evolution of the city, including Council decisions, real estate developments, federal housing investments, regional plans, introduction of new transportation technologies, social policy innovations and environmental restoration. The chronology is updated every year after the annual Year-In-Review public forum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
