Introduction

Safe and equitable access to housing, transportation, daily and regular needs is essential for all residents. Small and rural communities, like the Pemberton Valley, are often challenged to provide access to these essential needs, and residents are often forced to travel outside their community.

The Complete Communities project evaluates the Pemberton Valley (view map for project boundaries) through four lenses: housing, transportation, infrastructure and daily needs, and aims to identify ways to improve residents’ ability to access daily and regular needs locally.

Project Goals

  1. Assess the “completeness” of the Pemberton Valley and the connections to and between the Village of Pemberton and nearby parts of Líl̓wat Nation territory.
  2. Confirm and refine community needs and goals with respect to community completeness.
  3. Learn about community priorities/level of importance among the needs and goals.
  4. Seek ideas for actions to address gaps between the current state and goals/needs for Village residents and Líl̓wat Nation citizens.
  5. Strengthen working relationships between the Village of Pemberton and Líl̓wat Nation.
