PlanSJ: Planning for Saint John’s Future…Finally!

I came across a great blog post on PlanSJ, written by Andrew Matheson, over at Spacing Atlantic.

Saint John’s current Municipal Plan received Council approval in 1973 and was based on the assumption that the City’s population would grow to some 250,000 residents.
