stepped up its e•orts to be a catalyst for
positive progress. With considerable input
from stakeholders and unprecedented
levels of citizen involvement, it developed a
triloˆy of sustainability strategies addressing
economic development, as well as social
and environmental sustainability. In 2010,
the social component was the second to be
undertaken (after economic development,
adopted in 2007), and the draft for
environmental component was recently
completed with the help of over 2,100 people
contributing over 7,000 ideas. (The draft
is a framework of targets and initiatives for
enerˆy and greenhouse gas reduction, and
it focuses on four sectors: buildings, district
enerˆy, transportation and solid waste.)
"It takes a great deal of commitment
from the city, citizens and businesses to
develop the comprehensive plans that
shape Burnaby," states Mayor Corrigan.
"Over the years, together we've learned
that it's worth the e•ort. We all enjoy
reaping the signicant rewards."
