Livable Region Strategic Plan
The Livable Region Strategic Plan, LRSP, is the regional growth plan for Metro Vancouver, formerly known as Greater Vancouver. The GVRD Board of Directors adopted it in January, 1996 to be a “framework for making regional land use and transportation decisions in partnership with the GVRD’s member municipalities, the provincial government, and other agencies”. The LRSP’s goals were created from the “Creating our Future”, a plan for long-term development incorporating the results of consultations within the community.

Famous quotes containing the words livable, region, strategic and/or plan:
“If I tell you that I would be disobeying the god and on that account it is impossible for me to keep quiet, you won’t be persuaded by me, taking it that I am ironizing. And if I tell you that it is the greatest good for a human being to have discussions every day about virtue and the other things you hear me talking about, examining myself and others, and that the unexamined life is not livable for a human being, you will be even less persuaded.”
—Socrates (469–399 B.C.)
“Alvina felt herself swept ... into a dusky region where men had dark faces and translucent yellow eyes, where all speech was foreign, and life was not her life. It was as if she had fallen from her own world on to another, darker star, where meanings were all changed.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Marriage is like a war. There are moments of chivalry and gallantry that attend the victorious advances and strategic retreats, the birth or death of children, the momentary conquest of loneliness, the sacrifice that ennobles him who makes it. But mostly there are the long dull sieges, the waiting, the terror and boredom. Women understand this better than men; they are better able to survive attrition.”
—Helen Hayes (1900–1993)
“He fashions evil for himself who does evil to another, and an evil plan does mischief to the planner.”
—Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
