The speech and forum, themed “Big Picture Questions” will discuss the future of Vancouver through the lens of the City’s upcoming Comprehensive Plan.
The event will be accompanied by the release of the City’s online annual report, which includes additional details on City budgets and accomplishments over the last year.
Mayor Anne McEnerny-Ogle will present a brief State of the City address, highlighting some of the transformative accomplishments of 2022 and looking ahead to what’s next for Vancouver. The mayor’s remarks will be followed by a Council Community Forum, where community members will join City Councilors and City staff to discuss the big picture questions that will shape Vancouver’s comprehensive plan, a long-term vision for the future.
Doors open at 5:30 p.m. with the speech starting at 6 p.m. Due to space constraints at the venue, RSVPs for the event are now closed to the public. The City will make every effort to accommodate those who arrive without previously RSVPing to the event.
