Then incorporated as a BRZ based on the model they helped create in 1985 under the Municipal Government Act'a new BRZ legislation. Yes community districts (which are distinct from BRZs) are certainly Hiihurst and Sunnyside. Point Frinkprof was making that area should be referred to by official community district name (especially in emergency) in most cases, unless what's being talked about relates specically with the BRZ itself.

i.e. - "Kensington is having a street festival this weekend" (correct) vs "evacuate Kensington neighbouhood now" (incorrect).
