  1. Getting Ready

  2. Planning
    The Planning phase begins with a creating the process and or work plan for addressing sustainability planning. Work plans will include opportunities for community involvement gathered through a variety of engagement strategies. Communities in British Columbia are exploring creative ways to reach a wide and diverse spectrum of the community, including children, youth and seniors and people of many cultural backgrounds. The result is a plan strengthened by multiple perspectives of the community.  Click on a link below to view the sample;
