The city’s media department did not provide details on whether Theresa O’Donnell had resigned or been asked to leave

Vancouver’s head of planning has abruptly departed for the fourth time in a row, as the city continues to grapple with crisis-level housing shortages and costs.

“Theresa has made a remarkable contribution to Vancouver and the trajectory of its ongoing evolution,” wrote city manager Paul Mochrie in an internal e-mail to staff. “In particular, I want to acknowledge her leadership of some of our city’s most important land use planning work, including the Vancouver Plan, the Broadway Plan and the recent zoning updates to enable missing middle housing city-wide.

He said he thinks Ms. O’Donnell’s departure is likely related to the new ABC Vancouver party-dominated council’s impatience to see dramatic change.
