Neighbourhood Association, False Creek South

Vancouver, Canada

http://www.falsecreeksouth.org/

The False Creek South Neighbourhood Association was formally established early in the development of the community. FCSNA is an elected body with representatives from all of the housing co-operatives in the area and most strata enclaves, including those leasing land, or water, from the City, as well as those on freehold properties. They recently expanded our membership to include representatives from enclaves run by non-profit housing societies.
The association, like other community associations, represents the interests of their neighbourhood with the City of Vancouver. They meet monthly to discuss issues of concern and give residents the opportunity to be involved in proposed changes in the neighbourhood.
In 2010, their neighbourhood association created *RePlan to address issues associated with uncertainty over tenure for co-ops, stratas and non-profits. They also established a Refugee Sponsorship Committee in 2015 to help bring a refugee family from Syria to their community.
