Is this your e-bike? A community member reported it abandoned near the Selkirk Waterfront area this morning. If it belongs to you pls call the E-Comm non-emergency line at 250-995-7654 & provide file # 24-14748. We'd love to reunite this bike with its owner(s)! #yyj
More of this please :)
Getting there at The Penny on Craigflower! Siding is finished, railings going up, interior work nearly complete & we'll be starting exterior servicing (and removing the porta potty) pretty soon. Pretty happy with how the metallic copper turned out. Looks even sharper in person.
Happy to fund this pilot project in #yyj, partnering with @yyj_housing & @WholeWayHouse. Whole Way House's work creates communities in buildings and helps people live better, more socially connected lives and reduces costs for government. greatervichousing.org/news-blog/news…
I think we need to talk about “Growth pays for growth” It feels like another one of those axioms of North American urban planning that needs to be be questioned.
🚨BREAKING: SCIENCE JOINS TEAM YIMBY🚨 scientificamerican.com/article/we-nee…
New study finds that exurban residents drive more and walk less than those living closer to central cities -- and they have higher rates of heart disease, diabetes, and other cardio risks. Land use, transportation, and health are inextricably linked. doi.org/10.1016/j.jth.…
This should be legal across all the most unaffordable sfh-only parts of Oak Bay, Saanich and Victoria. Not just tiny pockets as prescribed by mini politicians. Looks great.
1/ A story of basic boxes: Ever notice these basic four storey buildings around town? There is a specific intention for this, and it ties into a collective exercise the industry and regulators need to accept in order to make a dent in the housing crisis. Join me as we talk…
The idea of this program was strong -- and we're looking at offering it without the bureaucracy -- but it was one of the worst programs ever designed... so many requirements that it was nearly impossible to use. timescolonist.com/indigenous-new…

I got a new job that’s a 13 min bike ride or 24 min bus ride to the office. I think it’s finally time to get that ebike!!! 🚲 Recommendations very welcome. I have lower back problems so something that lets me stay upright helps. Also ideally it’s not toooo heavy.
Very well said re: IZ. This is a short and powerful way of explaining inclusionary zoning and its ill effects.
@pushtheneedle Anyone who is directly involved in building housing, at any stage in the process, is completely aware that IZ is a tax on the market rate occupants that trades housing at one level for another so people can feel good without it costing them anything personally.
@RyanJabs @SteveNash It’s called Good Traffic and it comes out on Tuesday
@RyanJabs @ryanmjohnson @SteveNash It’ll be out on Tuesday!
1st quarter 2024 #bcpoli fundraising totals out, showing @Conservative_BC will need to pick up their game if they hope to run a robust province-wide elxn campaign. @BCGreens - whose 2023 fundraising totals are still missing - lag last, but clearly aren't running a full campaign.
Working on an unreal project, could be the most exciting I’ve worked on. This is all I can share for now but if you guess correctly, I’ll tell you 🤣
@TalktoARYZE I’m picturing that a line up of grand pianos on the right.
@RyanJabs My comments on concerns for a car free lifestyle in MNC was more so that we are a massive geographic region dispersed with no major core like Victoria. That being said we are making strides, 3 apts we just approved reduced parking & added secure bike storage in lieu.
@RyanJabs With the massive land size of our municipality in relation to population we aren't totally there for walk/bike infrastructure connectivity that makes a home like this totally possible, but I can hope that one day we do. Love Greater Victoria because 100% you could be car free
If a provincial government was so inclined to cut down on planning regulations an easy peasy way to do that would be to limit municipalities to about 12 to 16 zones max and only 3 zones for any specific use. E.g. 3 residential zones, 3 mixed-use zones, 3 commercial zones, and so…
Two months left for municipalities to update their zoning bylaws to conform with provincial legislation. Checking in how that's going for West Vancouver, one of the worst, if not the worst, offender when it comes to exclusionary zoning practices. And prices and rents to prove it.
@RyanJabs oh man, this is wonderful! can't wait to follow along.
@RyanJabs @BishopsCycles Urban Arrows are so comfortable to ride, yet super capable/powerful too! I look forward to buying a bike (or bikes) from @BishopsCycles myself one of these days.
@RyanJabs Looks like it will be nice! Nothing looks really good until the trees etc are established.
@RyanJabs Really nice-looking building! Great bike, too...
