Shape the Regional Growth Strategy

The Fraser Valley is growing fast and we need an updated strategy that works for everyone, including you! The FVRD invites you to share your thoughts on regional issues related to transit, housing, recreation, economic development, and the environment. The survey closes on October 8, 2021. Everyone who registers is eligible to win one of four $50 Visa gift cards.

What’s the purpose of this survey? 

• Your input will be used to evaluate the priorities and policies of the FVRD's Regional Growth Strategy.
• By completing this survey, you will be helping the FVRD further understand the current and future regional challenges through the lens of those most impacted.

How long will this take? 

10-15 minutes. 

Can I skip questions?

Yes. Feel free to skip questions. Just be sure to click submit at the end of the survey! 

What else do I need to know? 

• The FVRD's population is expected to grow by 60% in the next 30 years. That’s approximately 200,000 more people living in the region from 2016 levels. 
• FVRD's Regional Growth Strategy (RGS) Fraser Valley Future 2050 is a high-level policy plan used to guide long-term growth in the region. 
• After several years of in-depth engagement across the region, we are pleased to share the draft RGS update which reflects new legislation, growing relationships with Indigenous communities, and new challenges facing the region.
