Welcome
Welcome to the James Bay Neighbourhood Association (JBNA) website. The Association is a non-profit society of creative and committed James Bay residents who are actively involved in the community and share a desire to work together for the benefit of our neighbourhood.
JBNA is recognized by the City of Victoria as the land-use consultative organization for James Bay. Our focus includes all land-use matters such as developments and amenities, parks and green spaces, streets and transportation, and the environment.
Meetings are held, via Zoom, on the 2nd Wednesday of every month at 7:00 pm.
Following the meeting the Zoom video recordings and meeting presentation slides will be available here
