Have your say on making new buildings more accessible

From BC Gov News:

The Province is inviting all British Columbians to provide their feedback about how to make new buildings more accessible for all people.

“Everyone should be able to enter, exit and move through buildings independently and with dignity, and we need to hear from British Columbians on how we can best support that,” said Dan Coulter, Parliamentary Secretary for Accessibility. “This engagement is the first step in fulfilling our commitment to make sure the next BC Building Code will do a better job at making new buildings more accessible for all people.”

A public engagement about BC Building Code accessibility requirements is open and will run until Dec. 9, 2021. The input collected through an online survey will be used to help government develop changes to the next BC Building Code to make new buildings more accessible. The survey is available here: https://engage.gov.bc.ca/govtogetherbc/consultation/building-code-accessibility/
