We’ll then explore practical site improvements\, including nature-based solutions\, that can help buildings manage heat\, water and other climate impacts. Presentations from the Urban Native Plant Initiative\, Reliable Controls and more will demonstrate how existing commercial properties can integrate these strategies to achieve multiple environmental and operational benefits. The morning concludes with networking and a guided tour of the Swan Lake Sanctuary. \nMorning Highlights\n✓ Updates on the Greater Victoria 2030 District’s Reporting to Results (R2R) initiative\, (including recruiting/onboarding Saanich & Victoria participant buildings > 30\,000 sq.ft.)\n✓ Practical strategies to improve building performance\, resilience and tenant experience\n✓ Case examples of nature-based solutions in action\n✓ Networking with peers and a guided tour of Swan Lake Sanctuary \nAgenda will include presentations from \n\nDamian Stathonikos\, President of BOMA BC\nCora\, Trevor and/or Ryan from the Greater Victoria 2030 District\nCeleste Huston & Hayden Ord\, co-founders\, Urban Native Plant Initiative (UNPI)\nCameron Lutz\, Chief Marketing Officer\, Reliable Controls\nBrianne Tenk\, City of Victoria (stormwater management)\nCara Gibson\, Executive Director\, Swan Lake Nature Sanctuary\n\nRegister here:\nhttps://buytickets.at/chrmconsulting/2355959
