BC Transit

In April 2024 the Fairfield Gonzales Community Association is hosted a public engagement meeting for members of the community to come help BC Transit understand your needs, learn how transit investment decisions are made, and the relationship between effective transit and land use.

Neighbourhood Priorities

In June 2024 we invited you to tell us about what you love about living in the neighbourhood, what could be better, and how to increase our community vitality! 

Over 50 of you joined us at an in-person forum and over 200 people told us their thoughts online, on the topics of housing, community indoor space, transportation, climate change resilience, parks & outdoor space, and urban culture & vibrancy.

We heard how much everyone values living in this incredible place, and what everyone hopes for in the future. We will use your input to shape priorities for the FGCA and amplify your discussions to the City and decision-makers at all levels.

Community Inspiration Project

In the summer 2019, the Streetlife Committee decided to develop an asset-mapping project. The larger goal was to engage and inspire the community around what is positive in the neighbourhood. Local residents and stakeholders could submit feedback about how to keep improving the quality of life in Fairfield Gonzales.

Each neighbourhood has its particular assets, whether they are natural, built, economic, social…. Bringing value to where we live!

In January 2021, the project came to reality, thanks to many diverse contributions to the Google map, and a My Great Neighbourhood Grant from the City of Victoria!
