One of city’s biggest developers sues city over social housing — and not for the reasons you might think

August 19th, 2016 · 3 Comments

Yep, Concord Pacific, which has worked hand in hand with the City of Vancouver for decades, is suing the city, even asking for an injunction to stop the city from selling a piece of land that Concord says it handed over for social housing. My story here.

Their argument — not fair now to sell it to another developer to compete with Concord projects when it was promised as a community benefit.

Their statement of claim below here.

    Obvious statement here, but what’s not fair is concord not providing the public park for 20+ years they promised to do.

    Insert tiny violin.

    Community benefit? What does Concord Pacific know about that?

    Read the contract the province did with Concord years ago to find out why the park hasn’t materialized.
