North Vancouver School District Vision We provide world-class instruction and a rich diversity of engaging programs to inspire success for every student and bring communities together to learn, share and grow.
Facing challenges in the District of North Vancouver * While rising home values may benefit existing residents, it has meant challenges for the District of NV and other municipalities. High land costs and a shrinking employment-age population discourage employers from setting up shop, resulting in fewer jobs and further acceleration of the shift toward an older demographic. Between 1996 and 2006, the District of North Vancouver lost 1,000 jobs. Over the same period the proportion of 20- to 40-year-olds in the district fell from 27.7 per cent to 21 per cent – well below the regional average of 28.5 per cent. Seniors – those 65 years of age and older – rose to 13.5 per cent of the population over the same period (compared to 12.8 per cent for all of Metro Vancouver). But seniors need places to live too, and the lack of smaller, affordable homes in DNV hurts those wanting to downsize just as much as young families looking to get a foot in the real estate market. Those who sell don’t have a lot of options to downsize in the neighbourhoods where they’ve raised families, developed friendships and enjoyed medical care. To sell often means leaving everything they’ve known. “There’s a lot of people who would like to call the North Shore home, but there probably aren’t enough opportunities to accommodate the people who would like to be there. A lot of people are leaving that community to go elsewhere because they can’t find the housing that they want.” * BC Business Online May, 2012

‘Surplus’ sites 2011 Community Input OCP Town Centres • Concern about selling lands that may be needed in future • It makes sense to sell some of these properties, but keep the rest • Retain ownership & arrange long-term leases (up to 99 years) to generate revenue – It makes sense to hold on to properties where there is reasonable probability the site will be required for future growth. – We have compatible tenants & the lease revenue adds $1M annually to the operating budget • Empty buildings cost the school district money: maintenance, utilities, etc. – vandalism, boarded buildings these should be dealt with first Land, Learning and Livability: Community Consultation
‘Surplus’ sites 2011 Community Input OCP Town Centres • Generate funds to reinvest in programs & services for our children – equipment and resources, more programs for students – supports for special needs students and programs – reduce or relieve parent fund-raising • The Board depends on government funding through student and course grants and must seek alternate sources of revenue to augment provincial funding. • All proceeds from school properties (revenue through sales and leases) remain with the School District. The Ministry must approve any sale, or long-term lease, other than those involving independent schools. Land, Learning and Livability: Community Consultation
‘Surplus’ sites 2011 Community Input OCP Town Centres • Consider potential for future mutli-use, or alternate use: daycare pre-school, recreation, playgrounds, parks, adult learning, seniors centres, meeting spaces, urban farming on the land – consider developing lands for affordable housing • Schools are zoned Public Assembly. Redevelopment would likely require rezoning as determined by the Municipality. This involves further community consultation processes, involving Council. • By Policy, the Board must engage in a public process to consider proposals for future use of properties. • Proposals are invited, and proponents may be an organization, or a group assembled by a ‘lead tenant’. Land, Learning and Livability: Community Consultation
Questions & Answers from public dialogue Is the School District looking to sell land to balance its budget? NO - the school district has a balanced operating budget for the next three years. The Board added back $1 million in new program spending for each of the past 2 years. Has the Board already made decisions on some of the properties? NO - The Board committed to the community engagement process to seek out input and feedback before making any decisions regarding surplus land. When will the Board be making decisions on the properties? The Board will proceed to local, or neighbourhood meetings, in the fall regarding specific properties. The Board may also proceed with a call for proposals, or expressions of interest.
