    Victoria is making big moves to respond to the housing and climate crises through the update of the Official Community Plan. Are you passionate about housing solutions, climate action, or community vibrancy and resilience? The City of Victoria Community Planning team is offering an exciting opportunity to support a major, citywide planning process and gain hands-on experience in all these subject areas.
