Summary
The Village of Lions Bay, a small municipality on Howe Sound in British Columbia, Canada, is soliciting proposals from qualified and experienced consultants to develop a comprehensive Natural Asset Inventory (NAI) for all natural assets within its municipal boundaries. The work will produce a spatially-explicit inventory aligned with CSA W218:23 standards, classifying and mapping forests, creeks, wetlands, shorelines and other significant natural features, and assessing their condition, ecosystem services and risks from climate hazards (wildfire, flooding, slope failure, sea level rise). The selected consultant will deliver GIS-compatible outputs, recommendations, and capacity-building to integrate natural assets into the Village's asset management and climate action planning.
