Join us on this episode and hear Jeff Bray talk about his vision for a vibrant and diverse downtown core in Victoria. Jeff is the Executive Director at the Downtown Victoria Business Association (DVBA) and has great insight on street disorder problems and his opinion on decentralizing services that support the homeless population should be heard. The DVBA wants the BC Provincial Government to move quickly on implementing complex care supports for the addicted and mentally ill people living in a toxic environment. Downtown Victoria should not be a scary place to work or visit.
The DVBA continues to work with the police on initiatives like "Block Watch for Business" and deploys their "Clean Team" throughout the downtown core to promote safety and cleanliness. The VCPU wants to thank the over 1300 members of the DVBA for their support.
