THE cities of Burnaby, Coquitlam, Delta, Langley, New Westminster, North Vancouver, Maple Ridge, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, Pitt Meadows, Richmond, Surrey, Vancouver, West Vancouver and White Rock, the District of North Vancouver, Bowen Island Municipality, the villages of Anmore, Belcarra and Lions Bay, the Tsawwassen First Nation and Metro Vancouver on Tuesday in a joint statement said:

“Each municipality in Metro Vancouver is working diligently in re-opening parks, recreation, cultural and library services to our residents and patrons. We have learned a great deal with COVID-19.  One lesson is to support each other by coordinating municipal efforts.  Wherever possible municipalities are coordinating re-opening dates in an attempt to simplify and lessen confusion.”

It added: “Given that the scope of amenities varies widely from city to city, the re-opening dates of some services will differ in each jurisdiction. To ensure that you are up to date on your city’s re-opening dates, please check your city’s website or social media channels. Latest information will be posted on your city’s online and digital platforms.”
