Community planning in Killarney in past decades focused on comprehensive development planning for Champlain Heights (Implementation Report:Development of Areas E & F Champlain Heights, 1974) and Fraserlands (Fraserlands Information Package, 1988). These plans laid out the housing sites, roads, parks and trails that can now be seen in the neighbourhood.

In 1995, Vancouver City Council approved CityPlan: Directions for Vancouver. CityPlan is a citywide plan that will guide City decisions on programs, priorities and actions through 2021. CityPlan provides general directions for a range of topics and issues in which the City is involved including neighbourhood centres, housing variety and affordability, neighbourhood character, services, safety, arts and culture, public places, economy and jobs, transportation, environment, downtown development, financial accountability, and decision making. [CityPlan & Community Visions Overview]

The Community Visions Program is a component of CityPlan that provides each community with an opportunity to look into its future, determine its needs and aspirations, and set a course that is consistent with CityPlan. Community visioning is being implemented in areas where there has been little or no previous community planning.

The Victoria-Fraserview/Killarney (V-F/K) Community Vision, was approved by City Council in 2002. [Victoria-Fraserview/Killarney Community Visions Program]
