As director of Community Planning in the Department of Planning, Urban Design and Sustainability in Vancouver, Canada, Neil is responsible for implementing the Vancouver Plan, a 30-year vision to manage the growth and development of the city. A key tenet of the plan is to shift the focus of growth into the historic single-family areas of the city to provide diverse and more affordable housing in compact, walkable neighborhoods where people can walk/roll, cycle and take transit to daily needs.This transformational shift centers equity and the environment and will help ensure Vancouver grows along a more inclusive and sustainable path.
