Dean Mousseau tells the story of Inland Kenworth truck and heavy equipment site: where 'design with nature' meets 'green value'

 

Courtenay seminar #2 - inland kenworth

 

The Inland Kenworth truck and heavy equipment facility in the City of Nanaimo illustrates what can be accomplished through collaboration when a municipality challenges a development proponent to be innovative. Also, the project illustrates how a 'design with nature' approach to rainwater management will influence the greening of the built environment, protect stream health and yield 'green value'. 

The Inland Kenworth story, as told by  Dean Mousseau and his colleague Gary Noble, has resonated so much so that it has been incorporated into the curriculum for Convening for Action on Vancouver Island. Dean Mousseau represents the City of Nanaimo on VICT.
