Community Partnerships Branch

Urban Development Agreements

An Urban Development Agreement (UDA) is a partnership of federal, provincial and municipal governments working in collaboration together with the community on issues such as inner city revitalization, economic development and community resiliency.

Currently, the Vancouver Agreement, an urban development agreement with the City of Vancouver and the federal and provincial governments, has been renewed for a second five-year term. The Branch is working to develop urban renewal agreements with the municipalities of Victoria and Surrey.

The Community Partnerships Branch has been designated by the Province as the lead agency in the development and administration of these agreements.
