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.)
“Death is only a launching into the region of the strange Untried; it is but the first salutation to the possibilities of the immense Remote, the Wild, the Watery, the Unshored.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“If the technology cannot shoulder the entire burden of strategic change, it nevertheless can set into motion a series of dynamics that present an important challenge to imperative control and the industrial division of labor. The more blurred the distinction between what workers know and what managers know, the more fragile and pointless any traditional relationships of domination and subordination between them will become.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
“My plan of instruction is extremely simple and limited. They learn, on week-days, such coarse works as may fit them for servants. I allow of no writing for the poor. My object is not to make fanatics, but to train up the lower classes in habits of industry and piety.”
—Hannah More (1745–1833)
