dc.description.abstract | This master’s project examines lessons learned by BC municipal planners who have worked on providing public toilets, with a focus on municipalities in BC with populations of 100,000 or fewer. The issue is complex, and no one-size-fits-all solution will work for all municipalities. Providing public toilets has benefits and disadvantages, but the challenges can be overcome through relevant, evidence-based practices. This project recommends six promising practices that municipalities can incorporate to increase their successful provision of public toilets. An increase in the number of safe, clean public toilets available in small BC municipalities will improve access to basic sanitation and increase livability across the province, especially for vulnerable people. | |
