That link might not work for people who don't subscribe to the NYTimes, since the Times puts its articles behind a firewall after a couple of days. It's a good idea to use the [url=http://nytimes.blogspace.com/genlink:5dd5f]New York Times Link Generator[/url:5dd5f] to get an RSS link for the articles -- it won't rot.

I already linked to that article, by the way, on page two of [url=http://vibrantvictoria.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?t=893&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=25:5dd5f]The Coriolis report - Downtown plan[/url:5dd5f] thread! (sniff... ...sulks off...) (Ok, ok, not everybody can be as obsessive as I am about clicking through on links... ;-) ) But it's a good read, so check it out....
PS: here's the link converted by the NYTimes Link Generator: [url=http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/17/realestate/commercial/17vancouver.html?ex=1326690000&en=688b70f777c35df1&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland&emc=rss:5dd5f]click[/url:5dd5f]

Does this mean you went for coffee, or "did lunch" ?

Sorry we will have to synergize our communication output taking into account the muli-layered approach our stakeholders have utilized in the past. By doing this we should be able to maximize the downstreaming of information to the end-user.

Do you work with the girls at the planning department?


No but needless to say I do work in the public sector as apparently you do too :)

From the CRD website (since we are on the topic):

The Capital Region District Board has approved the final draft of a new Strategic Plan which provides the broad direction and framework for more specific planning and management activity to follow. A final plan for adoption will come forward to the January 2007 Board meeting.

It made me laugh anyways...
