Sat. May 4th 9:00 – 1:00 AND  Sun. May 5 10:00-12:00 – spring clean, pull out and dust everything you don’t need or want any longer – save it from the landfill and make a bit of money at the same time!! 

All you need to do is:

2) post your address & sale on Craigslist highlighting unique items you wish to sell – Spring is busy for garages sales so let’s make it easy for shoppers to find us

3) place free stuff to the curb on Sun. @ noon. Please remove in one week if not gone and take to recycling depot.

REGISTRATION OPEN NOW – Delbrook Lands Community input

Dear Delbrook Lands Community Members and Stakeholders,

We’re writing with two updates on the next phase of the Delbrook Lands Community Dialogue process:

We invite those of you who would like to participate in the June 18th Delbrook Lands Deliberative Dialogue to register your interest – please visit https://sfu.fluidsurveys.com/s/delbrookdialogue/ to fill out the online form. Please note, seating for the event is limited and filling out the form does not guarantee you a space.

The Delbrook Lands Deliberative Dialogue Process and Guidelines document has been approved by Council, available online here. Shaped by community feedback during the first phase, it contains objectives for the rest of the process, guiding principles for the community consultation, policy constraints that will affect decision making, and describes how participants will be selected for the Deliberative Dialogue day-long workshop.

Overview of the Deliberative Dialogue selection process: To balance community input in a fair and transparent way, the SFU Centre for Dialogue has designed a process that includes gender fairness, random selection for interested residents and property owners and reserved seats for community organizations and stakeholders directly impacted by the future of the Delbrook Lands. There are 100 available seats – 50 will be allocated to the local Delbrook residents and stakeholders and 50 will be allocated to District-wide residents and stakeholders. Spaces will be held for young people (ages 15-30), adults ages 31-45, and residents who live within 100 meters of the Delbrook Lands. Participation is capped at one participant per household.

Registration ends May 18th, and the random selection process will take place on May 20th in a public location at the District of North Vancouver Municipal Hall. For more information, visit: www.dnv.org/delbrooklands 

If you have any questions or comments about the Deliberative Dialogue, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Sincerely, The Civic Engage Team at Simon Fraser University’s Centre for Dialogue
