It also has a reputation for progressive governance and for its innovative approaches to managing waste, sustainable development and using technology to engage the community.
Since it was incorporated on March 7, 1913, Port Coquitlam has experienced significant growth and has remained relevant during changing times. At the same time, the City has retained its authentic historic downtown core and a tradition of community involvement. The City has effectively balanced social, environmental, and economic values while fulfilling citizen priorities.

**Vision and Mission**
Council has selected the three priorities to guide the City’s budget and service-delivery, based on community feedback received throughout the year and through the annual budget survey and other public consultation.

These priorities will translate into budgeted activities with tangible results, organized into six key focus areas.

Overall, the focus is on getting the basics right - planning and providing core municipal services (such as roads, utilities and other infrastructure, safety, and recreation) that matter to residents and businesses.

These are the building blocks for a safe, family-friendly community with affordable places to live at all stages of life, good-paying jobs, thriving businesses, and desired amenities and services.
