What's happening now—review the Draft Cascade Heights Community Plan
The City of Burnaby has developed a new draft community plan for Cascade Heights. The new Cascade Heights Plan will help manage the growth of this community over the next several decades and account for shifting community trends, changes and priorities.
We are now in Phase 3 of the community planning process, and the Draft Cascade Heights Community Plan is available for review. We want to hear your comments and questions about the Draft Plan as we work towards finalizing it for Council’s consideration and adoption.
The draft Cascade Heights Community Plan was developed based on feedback and comments we heard from residents, host First Nations, community partners and other members of the public during Phase 1 and Phase 2 public consultation.
To find out more about how the draft community plan was developed and how we got to this stage, please read the Phase 3 Planning and Development Committee (PDC) Report.

About this project
We’re developing a new community plan for the Cascade Heights neighbourhood in south Burnaby. This plan will establish a vision and policy direction and shape how this area will redevelop over the mid to long term.
In addition to creating a thriving urban village with a focus on creating public spaces that promote health, happiness and well-being, the Cascade Heights plan will lay out a range of opportunities for the area, including:
- new or enhanced parks, trails, community services and amenities for residents
- enhanced streets, public spaces and green spaces/connections, while maintaining Cascade Heights as a quieter, more locally-focused Urban Village
- an expanded mix of market and non-market housing options
- local growth and employment options
- reinvestment as the existing building stock ages
- the shift to more sustainable forms of transportation (walking, transit, cycling)
- the enhancement and connection to the natural environment, including streams, riparian habitats and other environmental assets
- building community resiliency
- a carbon neutral community by 2050
The Cascade Heights area is located adjacent to the Burnaby Hospital, just east of Boundary Road.
