These principles guide all of RePlan’s work with the City of Vancouver and community residents:

1. 1. Leases: The City of Vancouver must immediately extend long-term co-op and non-market rental leases in False Creek South to safeguard some of the city’s most affordable and secure housing that’s at risk.
   2. Public Land: Public land must be used to build co-ops and other forms of truly affordable non-profit housing, starting on vacant land.
   3. Affordability: Prioritize building rent-geared-to-income non-profit housing (co-ops, non-profit rentals) and seniors’ housing on vacant public land in False Creek South.
   4. Mixed Community: Maintain False Creek South’s mix of incomes, housing tenures and social demographics.
   5. Dialogue and Decisions: RePlan and False Creek South residents must be included in the future development of this neighbourhood: in dialogue, in decision-making, and in partnership with the City of Vancouver.
   6. Resident Protection: Ensure a transparent and fair agreement for affordable replacement housing in the neighbourhood for current residents when/if their current housing is redeveloped. Any additional units resulting from re-development of existing co-op sites should also be co-op units. 
   7. Neighbourhood Design: A continuation of housing and urban design that enhances community-building and inclusion, and keeps away loneliness.
