Inventing Eden Landscapes

If you've every has to work around a BC HERITAGE CONSERVATION ACT PERMIT & LICENSING you know that the system and process is brutal for home owners and their trusted/contracted Archaeologist professionals, builders and landscapers. While the process is one we all agree with the processing and time lags are costly and infuriating. As a group, we are calling for the process to change and stronger regulations and turn around requirements to be put in place to work in a united and expedited fashion so that homeowners don't go bankrupt, lose their contractors and ALL parties are able to work with a timeline and policy that actually WORKS.

Please this petition to motivate a change in the right direction!
As a professional with an existing site in stalled out for over a year, I am proud to have experience in this complex process, but I can honestly tell you there is so much work that needs to be done.
