Parkdale Neighbourhood PLAN launch event!

Parkdale People's EconomyGeneral

Join us Saturday October 29th at 1:30pm for a:
– Neighbourhood Plan Launch @ Bonar Presbyterian Church
– Jane’s Walk to explore proposed actions across the neighbourhood
– Celebration & Mural Launch (3:00pm Queen & Callender)

Come learn more about how gentrification is impacting affordability and diversity in Parkdale; 7 key Parkdale wellbeing indicators; and 37 directions for community action and policy option!

In the last 18 months we’ve gathered community members, agency staff, friends, academics and you. Together through the Parkdale Community Economic Development (PCED) planning project we’ve built a vision for Parkdale that emphasizes four overarching values: Inclusiveness, Affordability, Diversity and Equity. The risk of untamed gentrification in the area puts these values at risk.

Please join us in celebration as we share The Parkdale Neighbourhood Plan – a new story for Parkdale that offers strategies and actions to protect our shared values and promotes collective action, equitable development, participatory democracy, decent work, food security and shared wealth building.
