Russil, have you analyzed the social infrastructure capacity around these developments?

I am talking about school spaces!

DYK:

The Vancouver School Board has two forecasts?

1. Long Range Facilities Planning: Created in 2020 and last updated in May 2022 and it forecasts a decline of kids in Vancouver - 5,000 fewer kids by 2031. Meanwhile, the BC Ministry of Education and Child Care forecasts 10,000 more kids in Vancouver by 2031.

2. Financially, since funding is based on per student numbers, the Vancouver School Board is forecasting an increase of kids in the next 3 years.

What an epic laggard mindset in the VSB leadership team; these are shenanigans that affect our children.
