District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: May 14, 2012 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2012-005-RZ FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W SUBJECT:
First Reading Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6926-2012 20528 Lougheed Highway EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: An application has been received to rezone the subject property from CS-1 (Service
Commercial) to C-2 (Community Commercial) to permit an existing commercial building to be expanded and allow a broader range of commercial uses. This application is in compliance with
the Official Community Plan. RECOMMENDATIONS: That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6926-2012 be given First Reading; and That the applicant provide further information as described on Schedule
C and D of the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 -1999. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Shauna Steven (Spire Development Corporation) Owner: R. Tong MD Inc. Legal
Description: Lot 1 Except: Part subdivided by Plan LMP20045; District Lot 222 Group 1 New Westminster District Plan 72179 OCP: Existing: Commercial Proposed: Commercial Zoning: Existing:
CS-1 (Service Commercial) Proposed: C-2 (Community Commercial) 1101
-2 -Surrounding Uses North: Use: Commercial Zone: CS-1 (Service Commercial), & RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Designation Commercial South: Use: Residential (south of abutting lane)
Zone: R-1 (Urban Residential) Designation: Urban Residential East: Use: Commercial Zone: CD-1-92 (A Comprehensive Development Zone for medically-related uses) Designation: Commercial
West: Use: Commercial Zone: CS-1 (Service Commercial) Designation: Commercial Existing Use of Property: Commercial Proposed Use of Property: Commercial Site Area: 0.327 ha. (0.8 acre)
Access: Lougheed Highway and lane behind Servicing: Full Urban Companion Applications: 2012-005-DP b) Project Description: The subject site is located on the south side of Lougheed
Highway, across from Triple Tree Nurseryland. The parcel is 0.327 ha. in size and has access to a lane from 118 Avenue. The applicant proposes to convert and extend the existing commercial
building. The current CS-1 zone allows for some of the intended uses (e.g. medical clinic), but not medical specialists offices, a pharmacy and diagnostic facilities. These additional
uses are permitted in the C-2 zone the applicant is seeking. The existing building is about 647 sq. m2 (6,960 ft2). With the proposed addition of about 517 m2 (5,561 ft2), the total
floor area of the proposed building will be 1,177 m2 (12, 521 ft2). Parking is provided in two areas. In front, there will be 39 parking spaces, two of which will be handicapped spaces.
To the rear with lane access, will be 13 spaces intended to be for staff. Access to the front parking area is by way of an existing driveway through the lands to the east (20580 Lougheed
Highway) as part of a previous development application for those lands. The access is secured by way of an existing easement, with the District as a third party on the associated restrictive
covenant. Running concurrently with this application is Development Permit application (2012-005-DP). It will govern the details of the proposed expansion, exterior renovations, parking
layout, landscaping and signage.
-3 -c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: This western stretch of the Lougheed Highway was predominantly service commercial in nature. However, more recent C-2 (Community Commercial)
zone applications to accommodate community commercial-type uses is giving the area a mixed commercial flavor. The proposal is entirely in accordance with the Commercial land use designation,
and complies with the policies in Section 6.3.4 General Commercial regarding the pattern of development and accommodation of market trends, and Section 6.3.5 Community Commercial Node
respecting better serving local resident’s commercial needs and being compatible with the surrounding uses. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the subject site
from CS-1 (Service Commercial) to C-2 (Community Commercial) to permit the existing 647 m2 building to be expanded by 517 m2 and have a total floor area of 1,177 m2. A preliminary review
of the proposed building and associated parking has concluded that the proposal complies with the applicable Zoning Bylaw and parking regulation. Any variations from the requirements
of the proposed zone will require a Development Variance Permit application. Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.5 of the Official Community Plan, a Commercial Development Permit
application is required to address the current proposal’s compatibility with adjacent development, and to enhance the unique character of the community. Advisory Design Panel: A Commercial
Development Permit is required and must be reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel prior to Second Reading. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting is required
for this application. Prior to Second Reading the applicant is required to host a Development Information Meeting in accordance with Council Policy 6.20.
-4 -d) Interdepartmental Implications: In order to advance the current application, after First Reading, comments and input, will be sought from the various internal departments and
external agencies listed below: a) Building Department; b) Engineering Department; c) Operations Department; d) Fire Department; e) Parks Department; f) Ministry of Transportation.
The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become necessary, as the application progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above. This application
has not been forwarded to the Engineering Department for comments at this time; therefore, an evaluation of servicing requirements has not been undertaken. We anticipate that this evaluation
will take place between First and Second Reading. e) Development Applications: In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by Development
Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 – 1999 as amended: 1. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule C); 2. Development Permit Application (Schedule D); The above list is intended to be indicative
only, other applications may be necessary as the assessment of the proposal progresses. CONCLUSION: This proposal involves converting and expanding an existing former service commercial
building into a building that will accommodate commercial community uses. The site and building plans were reviewed on a preliminary basis. A full review will be conducted before this
application is advanced to Second Reading and as part of reviewing the companion development permit application.
-5 -The proposal is in compliance with the Official Community Plan land use designation and applicable commercial policies. _______________________________________________ Prepared by:

the subject properties from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential), in support of a future subdivision into two single family lots no smaller
than 0.4 hectares (1 acre) each. At this time, the current application has been assessed to determine its compliance with the Official Community Plan with respect to the proposed land
use only. Detailed review and comments will need to be made once full application packages have been received. A more detailed analysis and a further report will be required prior to
Second Reading. Such assessment may impact proposed lot boundaries and yields, Official Community Plan designations and Bylaw particulars, and may require application for further development

– 1999 as amended: 1. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule B); 2. Subdivision Application. The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary
as the assessment of the proposal progresses.

ha. (1.6ac.) Access: 208 Street Servicing requirement: Full Urban Standard b) Site Characteristics: The development site is located on the west side of the cul-de-sac of 208 Street,
north of Dewdney Trunk Road. The property slopes down from a level area by the street to creeks on three sides. The sloped areas of the site have a significant number of trees. c) Project
Description: The applicant is proposing a townhouse development on the relatively level area of the site with an on-site strata road from the cul-de-sac. Eight townhouse units are proposed
in four duplex-style buildings. Road dedication would be required to complete the cul-de-sac bulb. The balance of the site would be dedicated as Park for protection of the environmentally
sensitive areas. At this time the current application has been assessed to determine its compliance with the Official Community Plan and provide a land use assessment only. Detailed
review and comments will need to be made once full application packages have been received. A more detailed analysis and a further report will be required prior to Second Reading. Such
assessment may impact proposed lot boundaries and yields, Official Community Plan designations and Bylaw particulars, and may require application for further development permits.
-3 -d) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The proposed development is consistent with the Neighbourhood Residential Infill policies of the Urban Residential designation. The
Conservation boundary will be amended to include all the environmentally sensitive areas on the site. The proposed development would be compatible with the townhouse site to the east
and others in the area. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the property located at 12101 208 Street from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RM-1 (Townhouse
Residential) to permit approximately 8 townhouse units. Any variations from the requirements of the proposed zone will require a Development Variance Permit application. Development
Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.7 of the Official Community Plan, a Multi-Family Development Permit application is required to ensure the current proposal enhances existing neighbourhoods
with compatible housing styles that meet diverse needs, and minimize potential conflicts with neighbouring land uses. Pursuant to Section 8.9 of the Official Community Plan, a Watercourse
Protection Development Permit application is required for all developments and building permits within 50 metres of the top of bank of all watercourses and wetlands. The purpose of
the Watercourse Protection Development Permit is to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and riparian areas. Advisory Design Panel: A Multi-Family
Development Permit is required and must be reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel prior to Second Reading. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting is not required
for developments of less than 25 units. e) Interdepartmental Implications: In order to advance the current application, after First Reading, comments and input, will be sought from
the various internal departments and external agencies listed below: a) Engineering Department; b) Operations Department; c) Fire Department; d) Parks Department; e) School District;
and f) Ministry of Transportation.
-4 -The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become necessary, as the application progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above. This application
has not been forwarded to the Engineering Department for comments at this time; therefore, an evaluation of servicing requirements has not been undertaken. We anticipate that this evaluation
will take place between First and Second Reading. f) Early and Ongoing Consultation: In respect of Section 879 of the Local Government Act for consultation during an Official Community
Plan amendment, it is recommended that no additional consultation is required beyond the early posting of the proposed OCP amendments on the District’s website, together with an invitation
to the public to comment. g) Development Applications: In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by Development Procedures Bylaw
No. 5879 – 1999 as amended: 1. An Official Community Plan Application (Schedule A); 2. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule C); 3. Multi-Family Residential Development Permit Application
(Schedule D); 4. Watercourse Protection Development Permit Application (Schedule F); The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the assessment
of the proposal progresses. CONCLUSION: The development proposal is in compliance with the Official Community Plan, therefore, it is recommended that Council grant First Reading, subject
to additional information being provided and assessed prior to Second Reading. It is recommended that Council not require any further additional OCP consultation. It is expected that
once complete information is received, Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6921-2012 will be amended and an Official Community Plan Amendment for Conservation boundary adjustment may
be required.

District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: May 14, 2012 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2012-038-RZ FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W SUBJECT:
First Reading Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6924-2012 12142, 12170, 12140 203 Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: An application has been received to rezone the subject property to accommodate
4 single family lots from P-2 (Special Institutional) to R-1 (Residential District) and a portion of the future road from R-1 (Residential District) to P-2 (Special Institutional) to
link with the existing Haney-Pitt Meadows Christian School. To proceed further with this application additional information is required as outlined below. RECOMMENDATIONS: In respect
to Section 879 of the Local Government Act, requirement for consultation during the development or amendment of an Official Community Plan, Council must consider whether consultation
is required with specifically: 1. The Board of the Regional District in which the area covered by the place is located, in the case of a Municipal Official Community Plan; 2. The Board
of any Regional District that is adjacent to the area covered by the plan; 3. The Council of any municipality that is adjacent to the area covered by the plan; 4. First Nations; 5.
School District Boards, Greater Boards and Improvement District Boards; and 6. The Provincial and Federal Governments and their agencies. And in that regard it is recommended that no
additional consultation be required in respect of this matter beyond the early posting of the proposed Official Community Plan amendments on the District’s website, together with an
invitation to the public to comment, and That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6924-2012 be given First Reading; and That the applicant provides further rezoning and OCP information as described
on Schedule B of the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 – 1999 and a subdivision application with its required supporting documentation. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant:
Haney Pitt Meadows Christian School Association Owner: Haney-Pitt Meadows Christian School Association 1104
-2 -Legal Description: D.L.: 241, Plan: 4921 Lot: 1, D.L.: 241, Plan: 4921 Lot: 1, D.L.: 241, Plan: 69727 OCP: Existing: Institutional and Residential Zoning: Existing: P-2 (Special
Institutional), R-1 (Residential District) Proposed: R-1 (Residential District), P-2 (Special Institutional), Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Park Zone: RS-1b, RS-1, RS-3 Designation
Park South: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: RS-1b Designation: Urban Residential East: Use: Elementary School Zone: P-1 Designation: Institutional West: Use: Single Family Residential
Zone: RS-1, RS-1b Designation: Urban Residential Existing Use of Property: Institutional Proposed Use of Property: Institutional, 4 single family lots Site Area: 1.770 HA. (4.37 acres)
Access: 204 B Street Servicing requirement: Urban Standard b) Project Description: The applicant is seeking to rezone and subdivide four (4) single family lots from the Haney-Pitt Meadows
Christian Association school site. The Christian School Association recently zoned the land they own west of their school site and is completing an 18 lot subdivision. The current application
seeks to regain some lots lost due to the need to alter the overall street/lot pattern on the site to accommodate a grave. The existence of the grave required the need to adjust the
recently adopted zoning boundaries on the school property. The applicant was aware of this problem but preferred to complete the original rezoning application and then adjust it with
a second application rather than delay the entire project. The grave will now remain on the school site rather than within the road right-of-way by locating the road westward on the
site. This adjustment will require the rezoning of a 1,642.5 sq m (17, 680 sq. ft.) portion of the school site from P-2 (Special Institutional) to R-1 (Residential District) to accommodate
4 lots and a small portion of 204 B Street from R-1 (residential District) to P-2 (Special Institutional). At this time the current application has been assessed to determine its compliance
with the Official Community Plan and provide a land use assessment only. Detailed review and comments will need to be made once full application packages have been received. A more
detailed analysis and a further report will be required prior to Second Reading. Such assessment may impact proposed lot boundaries and yields, Official Community Plan designations
and Bylaw particulars, and may require application for further development permits.
-3 -c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The site is designated Special Institutional (P-2) with a portion of the future fronting road (204 B street) designated Residential
District (R-1). These designations will have to be adjusted at Second Reading to conform to the future subdivision and zoning boundaries once fully determined. Zoning Bylaw: The current
application proposes to reconfigure the existing rezoning boundaries (P-2 (Special Institutional) and R-1 (Residential District)) on the eastern portion of the properties located at
12142, 12170 and 12140 203 Street to accommodate a consolidated school site and 4 residential lots. Any variations from the requirements of the zones will require a Development Variance
Permit application. At this time no variances are expected. Development Permits: This site is not subject to any development permit application.. Development Information Meeting: A
Development Information Meeting is not required for this application. d) Interdepartmental Implications: In order to advance the current application, after First Reading, comments and
input, will be sought from the various internal departments and external agencies listed below: a) Engineering Department; b) Operations Department; c) Fire Department; d) Parks Department;
The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become necessary, as the application progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above. This application
has not been forwarded to the Engineering Department for comments at this time; therefore, an evaluation of servicing requirements has not been undertaken. We anticipate that this evaluation
will take place between First and Second Reading. e) Development Applications: In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by Development
Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 – 1999 as amended: 1. An Official Community Plan Application (Schedule A); 2. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule B or Schedule C); 3. Subdivision Application,
as per attached requirements. The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the assessment of the proposal progresses.
-4 -CONCLUSION: The development proposal seeks a small amendment to the Official Community Plan to rationalize the Haney-Pitt Meadows Christian School site within a residential subdivision
of their site fronting 203 Street. It is recommended that Council grant First Reading subject to additional information being provided and assessed prior to Second Reading. It is expected
that once complete information is received, Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No.6924-2012 will be amended and an Official Community Plan Amendment Bylaw will be introduced. . The proposed
layout has not been reviewed in relation to the relevant bylaws and regulations governing subdivision applications. Any subdivision layout provided is strictly preliminary and must
be approved by the District of Maple Ridge’s Approving Officer. _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Charles R Goddard BA MA Manager of Development and Environmental

of Property: Inactive Gravel Extraction site Proposed Use of Property: Single Family Residential Site Area: 8.6 ha (21.3 ac) Access: Jackson Road, 104 Avenue, 105A Avenue, Robertson
Street Servicing requirement: Full Urban Standard b) Site Characteristics: The development site is located on both sides of Jackson Road on the north side of 104 Avenue and it has been
used for gravel extraction for many years. As a result, the topography of the site has changed significantly over the years, and further regrading will be required to enable the proposed
development.
-3 -c) Project Description: The applicant is proposing to rezone the lands on the west side of Jackson Road to RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential and to rezone the
lands on the east side to R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District). The proposed lot sizes and road patterns would be compatible with the adjacent land development patterns. At this
time the current application has been assessed to determine its compliance with the Official Community Plan and provide a land use assessment only. Detailed review and comments will
need to be made once full application packages have been received. A more detailed analysis and a further report will be required prior to Second Reading. Such assessment may impact
proposed lot boundaries and yields, Official Community Plan designations and Bylaw particulars, and may require application for further development permits. d) Planning Analysis: Official
Community Plan: The development site is located within the Albion Area Plan and is currently designated Low/Medium Density Residential on the west side and Medium Density Residential
on the east side of Jackson Road. The proposed development is consistent with these land use designations. The southeast corner of the development site is currently designated Low/Medium
Density Residential, but the area has some steep slopes and it is anticipated that this area will be designated as Conservation. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone
the properties from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential), A-2 (Upland Agricultural) and RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District) and RS-1b
(One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) to permit subdivision of the site into approximately 162 residential lots. The lands on the west side of Jackson Road would be zoned
RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) and the lands to the east would be zoned R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District). Any variations from the requirements of the
proposed zone will require a Development Variance Permit application. Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.8 of the Official Community Plan, an Intensive Residential Development
Permit application is required for the R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District) zoned lots to ensure the current proposal provides emphasis on high standards in aesthetics and quality
of the built environment, while protecting important qualities of the natural environment. Pursuant to Section 8.10 of the Official Community Plan, a Natural Features Development Permit
application is required for all development and subdivision activity to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement for the natural environment and for development
that is protected from hazardous conditions for; All areas designated Conservation on Schedule “B” or all areas within 50 metres of an area designated Conservation on Schedule “B”,
or on Figures 2, 3 and 4 in the Silver Valley Area Plan;
-4 - All lands with an average natural slope of greater than 15 percent; All floodplain areas and forest lands identified on Natural Features Schedule “C” to ensure the preservation,
protection, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and riparian areas. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting is required for this application. Prior
to Second Reading the applicant is required to host a Development Information Meeting in accordance with Council Policy 6.20. e) Interdepartmental Implications: In order to advance
the current application, after First Reading, comments and input, will be sought from the various internal departments and external agencies listed below: a) Engineering Department;
b) Operations Department; c) Fire Department; d) Parks Department; e) School District; and f) Ministry of Environment The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become
necessary, as the application progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above. This application has not been forwarded to the Engineering Department for comments
at this time; therefore, an evaluation of servicing requirements has not been undertaken. We anticipate that this evaluation will take place between First and Second Reading. f) Early
and Ongoing Consultation: In respect of Section 879 of the Local Government Act for consultation during an Official Community Plan amendment, it is recommended that no additional consultation
is required beyond the early posting of the proposed OCP amendments on the District’s website, together with an invitation to the public to comment. g) Development Applications: In
order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 – 1999 as amended: 1. An Official Community Plan
Application (Schedule A); 2. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule C); 3. Natural Features Development Permit Application (Schedule G); 4. Intensive Residential Development Permit
Application; and 5. Subdivision Application. The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the assessment of the proposal progresses.
-5 -CONCLUSION: The development proposal is in compliance with the policies of the Official Community Plan, however, justification has been provided to support an Official Community
Plan amendment to provide for a Conservation designation in the southeast corner. It is, therefore, recommended that Council grant First Reading subject to additional information being
provided and assessed prior to Second Reading. It is also recommended that Council not require any additional consultation. The proposed layout has not been reviewed in relation to
the relevant bylaws and regulations governing subdivision applications. Any subdivision layout provided is strictly preliminary and must be approved by the District of Maple Ridge’s
Approving Officer. _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Ann Edwards, CPT Senior Planning Technician _______________________________________________ Approved

First and Second Reading Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6843-2011 Second Reading Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No.6844-2011 24426 102 Avenue EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On July 26, 2011, Council gave first reading to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District), to permit a residential
subdivision or about 30 lots and parkland. The subject property is identified as a “starred property” on Schedule B of the Official Community Plan. The purpose of designating the property
this way was to signal the intent to include it in the Urban Area Boundary subject to it being removed from Metro Vancouver’s Green Zone. On October 24, 2008 Metro Vancouver Board resolved
to retain this property within the Green Zone. However, on July 29, 2011, the Metro Vancouver Board adopted the Regional Growth Strategy which included this property within the Urban
Containment Area of the Regional Growth Strategy. The property needs to be included in Metro Vancouver Fraser Sewerage Area Boundary. This application requires an Official Community
Plan amendment for the following reasons: to include the subject site within the Urban Area Boundary; to change the designation to Urban Residential and Conservation from Agricultural;
and; to remove the “starred property” designation from the subject site. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. That in accordance with Section 879 of the Local Government Act opportunity for early
and on-going consultation has been provided by way of posting Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6843-2011 on the municipal website and requiring that the applicant host a Development
Information Meeting, and Council considers it unnecessary to provide any further consultation opportunities, except by way of holding a public hearing on the bylaw; 1107
-2 -2. That Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6843-2011 be considered in conjunction with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan; 3. That it be confirmed
that Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6843-2011 is consistent with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan; 4. That Maple Ridge Official Community
Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6843-2011 be given First and Second Reading and be forwarded to Public Hearing; 5. That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6844-2011 be given Second Reading and be forwarded
to Public Hearing; and 6. That the following term(s) and condition(s) be met prior to final reading. i. Approval from the Ministry of Transportation; ii. Inclusion of the site into
the GVSDD Fraser Sewerage Area; iii. Satisfactory resolution of design, maintenance requirements, maintenance agreement, and receipt of security from the applicant for the total cost
of the storm water drainage as proposed by the applicant on District Lands (Lower Jackson Farm); iv. Registration of a Rezoning Servicing Agreement as a Restrictive Covenant and receipt
of the deposit of security as outlined in the Agreement; v. Amendment to Schedule "B" & “C” of the Official Community Plan; vi. Registration of a geotechnical report as a Restrictive
Covenant which addresses the suitability of the site for the proposed development; vii. Road and park dedication as required; viii. Removal of the existing building/s; ix. A disclosure
statement must be submitted by a Professional Engineer advising whether there is any evidence of underground fuel storage tanks. If there is evidence, a site profile pursuant to the
Waste Management Act must be provided in accordance with the regulations. x. Pursuant to the Contaminated Site Regulations of the Environmental Management Act, the property owner will
provide a Site Profile for the subject land(s).

Area: 1.272 ha. (3.1 ac) Access: 244 Street Servicing requirement: Full Urban Companion Applications: 2011-065-SD, 2011-065-VP and 2012-041-DP
-4 -b) Project Description: The applicant has submitted a proposal to rezone the property from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District) to allow
the land to be subdivided into about 30 lots. A new road is proposed across the bottom of the lot from 244 Street and continuing along the east property line. All the lots will have
driveway access from rear lanes. An area of about 405 m2 on 244 Street will be dedicated as park for creek protection, and 690 m2 along the eastern and southern boundary will be dedicated
as park to provide a landscaped buffer between the development and the adjacent Jackson Farm park lands. The site is located at the southeast corner of 102 Avenue and 244 Street, adjacent
to Lower Jackson Farm which abuts the site to the east and to the south. There is a gentle slope from the northeast to the southwest, and a watercourse with a treed wetland area located
in the southwest portion of the property. Manmade channels direct drainage waters from Lower Jackson Farm lands through the site into a short stream on the site. This stream flows into
Jackson Creek after emerging from a culvert on the west side of 244 Street. The existing is a single family residential building and some accessory buildings clustered along 102 Avenue
are proposed to be removed. c) Planning Analysis: Metro Vancouver: This subject site is one of the “starred properties” identified on the Official Community Plan Land Use Plan, Schedule
B. “Starred properties” are ones that were removed or exempt from the requirements of the Agricultural Land Reserve. On July 29, 2011, the Metro Vancouver Board adopted the Regional
Growth Strategy, thus including the subject lands into the Regional Growth Strategy’s Urban Containment Boundary. Official Community Plan: This site is currently designated Agricultural
and is located immediately to the east of the Albion Area Plan. To accommodate the proposal the following amendments to the Official Community plan are required: To amend the OCP
Urban Area Boundary to conform with the Regional Growth Strategy Urban Containment Boundary by including this property in the OCP Urban Area Boundary; To place the property within
the Albion Area Plan and designate it Medium Density Residential and Conservation; and To removed the “starred property” designation from the subject lands. The Medium Density Residential
designation is most appropriate as it would be consistent with the designation of properties in the southeast portion of the Albion Area Plan. This provides for a range of housing styles,
including the smaller lot single detached housing that are being proposed by the applicant. The areas proposed to be designated include a strip of land at the eastern and southern
-5 -boundary of the site to buffer Lower Jackson Farm park lands, and the area along 244 Street to be retained for creek protection. Zoning Bylaw: The property is proposed to be rezoned
from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District). The proposed single family lots range in area from about 218 m² to 261 m² for interior lots and
263 m² to 246 m² for lots on corners, meeting the R-3 minimum lot area requirement of 213 m². The lot width exceeds the minimum required lot width of 7.9 metres, ranging from 8.1 metres
to 8.35 metres and wider corner lots. The lot depth matches or exceeds the 27 metres requirement. All the lots have lane access with detached garages. Development Variance Permit The
applicant is seeking the following variances: To vary the road right-of-way from 18 metres to 15 metres, but retain the required 8.6 metres carriageway, which will permit two-way
traffic and parking; To vary some of the servicing standards (sidewalk and curb) at the eastern edge of the road abutting Jackson Farm to be more compatible with the proposed bioswale
area; and To vary the R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District) zone building height requirement from 9.75 metres to 10.5 metres. Development Permits: The subject lands are proposed
be zoned R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District). The Official Community Plan requires that residential developments with densities exceeding 30 units per net hectare, such as R-3
Zone subdivision, are subject to an Intensive Residential Development Permit. The purpose of the Intensive Residential Development Permit is to provide a greater emphasis on high standards
in aesthetics and quality of the building environment while protection important qualities of the natural environment. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting
was held by the applicant on March 1, 2012 at the Albion Elementary School. Seven (7) individuals attended. Concerns raised included: traffic and parking along 102 Avenue (Engineering
proposes restricting on-street parking); the subject property should become part of Lower Jackson Farm park land; park lands need to have more child play areas and play fields; and
lack of schools.
-6 -d) Interdepartmental Implications: Building Department: A preliminary review of supporting technical documentation suggests the site has a shallow water table (approximately 0.8
metres – 1.2 metres below surface). As such, a Restrictive Covenant may be required restricting below grades basements. Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has reviewed
the application and has provided the following comments: The land cannot be rezoned until the site is included in the GVSDD Fraser Sewerage Area; Road dedication is required to
widen 102 Avenue; Off-site service upgrading is required (sanitary, drainage and water). Existing septic systems are to be removed. The detailed Engineering Comments have been provided
to applicant to be satisfactorily resolved. Parks & Leisure Services Department: The Parks & Leisure Services Department have identified that after the subdivision is completed they
will be responsible for maintaining the street trees. In the case of this project it is estimated that there will be approximately an additional 30 trees which is based on one tree
per lot; final subdivision design will provide exact numbers. The Manager of Parks & Open Space has advised that the maintenance requirement of $25.00 per new tree will increase their
budget requirements by $750.00. Council approval for the storm drainage proposal by the applicant on District land is required. The District currently does not have an approved overall
concept plan for Lower Jackson Farm. The applicant will need to work with environmental and park staff to assess the appropriateness of the works, and if acceptable, their satisfactory
integration into a park. This would include: their design, necessary maintenance requirements, a maintenance agreement, and receipt of security from the applicant for the total cost
of the storm water drainage. School Board: A referral was sent to School Board No. 43, however a response has not yet been received. In the past, the School Board has indicated to the
District that the Albion Elementary School is beyond capacity and future home owners could expect their children to attend another school in their immediate neighborhood.
-7 -Intergovernmental Issues: Local Government Act: An amendment to the Official Community Plan requires the local government to consult with any affected parties and to adopt related
bylaws in compliance with the procedures outlined in Section 882 of the Act. The amendment required for this application, for redesignation from Agricultural to (Albion Area Plan) Medium
Density Residential and Conservation and adjusting the Urban Area Boundary to match with the Metro Vancouver Urban Containment Boundary, is considered to be minor in nature. It has
been determined that no additional consultation beyond existing procedures is required. The amendment has been reviewed with the Financial Plan/Capital Plan and the Waste Management
Plan of the Greater Vancouver Regional District and determined to have no impact. e) Environmental Implications: The subject site, together with the Lower Jackson Farm lands to the
east and south share some complex topography and drainage issues. There are two watercourses – a short creek on the development site and Jackson Creek located in the forested portion
of Lower Jackson Farm to the south of the development site. This short watercourse and the immediate surrounding trees and the buffer strip forming a buffer between the development
site and Lower Jackson farm are to be dedicated as park and designated Conservation. A significant amount of the overland drainage is intercepted by one or more manmade channels that
traverse the development site from the Jackson Farm area to the east. From an ecological design perspective, it is desirable to re-establish the natural drainage pattern by re-routing
these intercepted waters to flow directly into Jackson Creek further upstream. The waters from the development site would continue to flow into the short creek. The applicant proposes
to install works along the eastern boundary of the development, mainly on Lower Jackson Farm lands, to direct waters from the park to Jackson Creek. This proposed northsouth channel
and vegetated buffer zone would be enhanced and replanted in a manner to ensure a functional natural zone that does not require continual maintenance by the District. There will be
a five year maintenance agreement to ensure survival of the plantings and to ensure the channel is functioning properly. The channel will essentially be a dry creek bed in the summer
periods but will serve the purpose of re-directing surface flows on a portion of Lower Jackson Farm to Jackson Creek rather than across the private property area, during heavier rains.
CONCLUSION: The current application seeks to achieve compliance with the Official Community Plan. Council granted First Reading to a zoning amending bylaw because this land is a “starred
property” signaling Council’s intension to consider including the lands within the Urban Area Boundary. The Regional Growth Strategy amended in July 2011 to include the subject site
into the Urban Containment Area,
-8 -therefore Council may proceed with considering amending the OCP to include the lands in the Urban Area Boundary, and designating the lands to Urban Residential and Conservation.
Therefore, it is recommended that Council consider granting Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6843-2011 First and Second Reading, and granting Maple Ridge Zone
Amending Bylaw No. 6844-2011 Second Reading, and that both bylaws be forwarded to a Public Hearing. _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Adrian Kopystynski,

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: An application has been received to rezone portions of the subject properties from C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) to M-3 (Special Industrial) to permit the development
of a two storey strata industrial warehouse building. On April 13, 2010, Bylaw No. 6666-2009 was given First Reading by Council. In support of the rezoning, an Official Community Plan

-3 -b) Project Description: The subject site is currently 2 separate lots, the larger of the two consists of predominantly outdoor storage with a dilapidated residential structure. The
smaller of the two properties contains a small single family house. The site abuts the Canadian Pacific Railway and has three street frontages; Ditton Street, Lorne Avenue and Maple
Crescent. The properties are currently split-zoned, M-3 (Business Park Zone) and C-3 (Town Centre Commercial). The applicant is proposing to rezone portions of the subject properties
located at 11307 and 11295 Maple Crescent from C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) to M-3 (Business Park Zone) to remove the split-zone and permit the construction of a new two-storey industrial
strata building on a consolidated lot. The proposal also includes a “caretaker’s suite” in the western building facing Ditton Street. The development as proposed has approximately 20
strata industrial units and would have two vehicular accesses off of Maple Crescent with parking hidden behind the buildings facing the railroad tracks. Separate pedestrian access is
provided for each unit off Lorne and Ditton, shared pedestrian access between each set of two units off Maple Crescent. Landscaping has been provided along all three road frontages
buffering the buildings from the road. The buildings are staggered along Maple Crescent which aids, along with the vehicle accesses, to break up the visual massing of the building.
c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The subject property is currently designated Urban Residential on Schedule B – Generalized Land use in the Official Community Plan Bylaw
No. 6425-2006. The proposal calls for an Official Community Plan Amendment to the Industrial designation. The proposed M-3 (Business Park Zone) zoning is consistent with the Industrial
designation. Both of the subject properties were formerly designated Industrial in the previous Official Community Plan Bylaw No. 5434-1996. They were re-designated to Urban Residential
in the current OCP in anticipation for a multi-family residential development. The proponent made application for a low rise apartment building in 2008 and completed a noise and vibration
study for the subject site. The noise was found to be 75 dBA which is classified by CMHC as “unacceptable”-noise exposure so severe that sound insulation costs would be prohibitive
and outdoor environment would be excessively noisy. In addition, the measured vibration levels exceeded the CMHC criterion for residential use by over 100%. Although construction measures
to mitigate the noise and vibration effects are available, however, they would carry significant additional cost which would no longer make the development project viable. The applicant
returned with an industrial warehouse building based the predominant M-3 (Business Park Zone) zoning of the subject sites and requests to return to the previous Industrial land use
designation based on the new project proposal. Zoning Bylaw: A preliminary review of the plans in relation to the Zoning Bylaw requirements has revealed that due to the nature of this
site, this proposal will require several variances to proceed.
-4 -As such, a Development Variance Permit application has been received to vary the following: 1. To vary the minimum exterior side yard setback (Maple Crescent) from 4.5 metres to
3.28 metres as proposed. 2. To vary the minimum landscape strip required for an exterior side lot line from 3.0 metres to 2.0 metres as proposed. 3. To vary the minimum interior side
yard setback (Railway) from 1.5 metres required to 0.02 metres as proposed. 4. To vary the 5 metre landscape strip required for the south west side of the site the where abuts an urban
residential zone (Railway). These variances will be reviewed in a future report to Council. Development Permits: An Industrial Development Permit is required for all new development
on land designated Industrial within the urban area boundary as noted in the Official Community Plan. The purpose of the Industrial Development Permit is to promote quality Industrial
development through attractive design that is compatible with adjacent development and conforms to the Official Community Plan guidelines. The Development Permit will be the subject
of a future report to Council. Advisory Design Panel: The proposed project was reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel on December 2009 at which time the panel recommended that the applicant
resubmit this application for further Advisory Design Panel review addressing several concerns. The applicant responded to the Panel’s concerns and returned to the following meeting
in January 2010 where the Panel supported the project moving forward with the following points to be addressed through Planning staff at the Development Permit stage; Consider protecting
the edges of the buildings from truck traffic. Resolve the conflict between the truck traffic route and the exit doors. Consider deleting the brackets and the lower canopy and support
the canopy from above. Introduce the same canopy treatment for the middle building. Reduce the height of the window sills at the lower level to increase visual permeability between
the street and the units. Introduce an Evergreen hedge screen on three sides of the garbage and bike enclosure. Development Information Meeting: The developer hosted two development
information meetings for the development on the subject property. The first was held June 17, 2009 for a previous development concept, a four storey ministorage industrial warehouse.
Approximately twelve people attended this meeting. Although many
-5 -liked the aesthetics of the building, concerns about the increased traffic and project massing relative to the area were raised. The second development information meeting for the
proposed two-storey development held on March 29, 2010 from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm at Hammond Community Centre, was held by the property owners and project architect. Three people signed
in on the attendance record. Discussion during the meeting was focused on three main community concerns: increased traffic on Maple Crescent, appropriateness for area, and the development’s
affect of surrounding residential property values. Traffic The developer advised that this is not a development involving retail functionality and that an increase in traffic would
be minimal. Parking for the development is also situated at the rear of the property, out of sight from surrounding residences. The community expressed preference for a traffic signal
at Lorne Avenue and Maple Crescent for road safety reasons. Appropriateness The developer advised that there is already a mix of various uses along this stretch of Maple Crescent, including
residential, commercial and industrial use. The Developer also advised that the scale of the project had been cut in half from their original four storey design, previously presented
to the neighbourhood in a Development Information Meeting in June 2009 for better alignment with the rest of the neighbourhood. Property Values The developer noted that an unsightly
bare lot would have a new building with nice landscaping, paved sidewalks abutting the property and street lighting which may enhance the property values in the area. d) Interdepartmental
Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has identified that all of the services required in support of the rezoning do not exist to the site. It will, therefore,
be necessary for the applicant to enter into a Rezoning Development Agreement and post the required security to complete the necessary works prior to final reading. Fire Department:
The Fire Department has reviewed the proposed development and has provided the applicant with information on required fire safety plans and fire department connections. These details
will be achieved at the Building Permit stage. Parks & Leisure Services Department:
-6 -The Parks & Leisure Services Department have identified that after the development is completed they will be responsible for maintaining the street trees. The Manager of Parks &
Open Space has advised that the maintenance requirement of $25.00 per new tree will need to be included in their future budget requirements. e) School District Comments: A referral
was sent to School District No. 42 on April 15, 2009; no comments have been received from this referral. f) Canadian Pacific Railway Comments: The Canadian Pacific Railway reviewed
a referral of the proposed project in April of 2009 and notes that the proposed project is a more suitable adjacency than a residential occupancy in terms of noise and vibration. The
structure may in fact act to provide some sound attenuation for the residential area to the north of Maple Crescent. In the construction phases, CP would not permit any overhead crane
swing over CP lands unless there was an aerial trespass agreement between the developer and CP. Please note that in terms of the structure placement, this project does not adhere to
the recommended 30 metre setback from the property line. It is also recommended that an intervening fence be installed at the property line to protect users from entering onto the railway
corridor. g) Intergovernmental Issues: Local Government Act: In respect of Section 879 of the Local Government Act requirement for consultation during the development or amendment of
an Official Community Plan, Council has considered at the April 13, 2010 Council Meeting, whether consultation is required with specifically: i. the board of the regional district in
which the area covered by the plan is located, in the case of a municipal official community plan; ii. the board of any regional district that is adjacent to the area covered by the
plan; iii. the council of any municipality that is adjacent to the area covered by the plan; iv. first nations; v. school district boards, greater boards and improvements district boards,
and vi. the provincial and federal governments and their agencies. and in that regard recommends that no additional consultation be required in respect of this matter beyond the early
posting of the proposed OCP amendments on the District's website, together with an invitation to the public to comment. An amendment to the Official Community Plan requires the local
government to consult with any affected parties and to adopt related bylaws in compliance with the procedures outlined in Section
-7 -882 of the Act. It has been determined that no additional consultation beyond existing procedures is required, including referrals to the Board of the Regional District, the Council
of an adjacent municipality, First Nations, the School District or agencies of the Federal and Provincial Governments. The amendment has been reviewed with the Financial Plan/Capital
Plan and the Waste Management Plan of the Greater Vancouver Regional District and determined to have no impact. CONCLUSION: It is recommended that this application be favourably considered
and First and Second Reading be given to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6665-2009, that Second Reading be given to Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6666-2009,
and that application RZ/035/08 be forwarded to Public Hearing. _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Jen Csikos Planning Technician ___________________________________________

District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin DATE: May 14, 2012 and Members of Council FILE NO: DVP/075/10 FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: C of W SUBJECT: Development
Variance Permit 10455 and 10481 245B Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: A Development Variance Permit application has been received in support of subdivision application SD/075/10. The application
is for an 11 lot RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) subdivision for three properties located at 10455, 10469 and 10481 245B Street. This Development Variance Permit
is for two of the properties (10455 and 10481 245B Street) only. The purpose of the Development Variance Permit is to vary the minimum lot width for the lots fronting 245 Street to
14.34 metres rather than the proposed RS-1b zone minimum lot width of 15 metres. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal DVP/075/10 respecting properties
located at 10455 and 10481 245B Street. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context Applicant: Don Schmidt Owners: Janice and Brian Ahonen Rebecca Awram Legal Description: Lots 2 and 4, Sections

Proposed Use of Property: Residential Site Area: 1.2 hectares (2.96 acres) Access: 245 and 245B Street Companion Applications: RZ/075/10, SD/075/10, 2011-032-DP Requested Variance:
Zoning Bylaw No. 3510 -1985: Schedule D –RS-1b: To vary the minimum lot width from 15 metres to 14.34 metres for lots 1, 2, 3, 6,7 and 8. b) Project Description: The applicant has applied
to rezone three properties located at 10455, 10469, and 10481 245B Street from RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) to permit
eight new lots on the 245 Street frontage and retain the existing dwellings on three large lots fronting 245B Street. As part of the subdivision process, the applicant is seeking a
lot width variance on lots 1,2,3,6,7 and 8 (existing 10455 and 10481 245B Street) to preserve the existing hedging and a storm right-of-way identified as a watercourse situated between
proposed lots 5 and 6. The proposed variance is to allow a 14.34 metre lot width rather than the minimum lot width of 15 metres for six proposed lots on two of the three parent properties.
Currently, there is a significant hedge along the property lines of lots 1,3,4,9 and 11, and a storm right-of-way on the south property line of lot 5 and 10. The Environmental Consultant
has identified that the open channel within the storm right-of-way is a watercourse due to its role in conveying nutrients to downstream fish bearing systems. Without the lot width
variance, some hedging and the watercourse would be impacted. By keeping the existing property lines, the hedging and watercourse can be preserved. The applicant has completed a Watercourse
Protection Development Permit and will be registering a tree protection covenant to preserve a number of hedge stems and significant trees on the development site and widen the storm
right-of-way to allow for future maintenance access to the open channel. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The subject sites are designated Low Medium Density Residential
in the Albion Area Plan and the proposed RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) zoning complies with this designation.
-3 -Zoning Bylaw: The proposed lots meet the minimum zoning requirements for lot area and lot depth in the RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) zone. The lot width variance
for six of the 11 proposed lots from 15 to 14.34 metres is the only requested variance. d) Alternatives: Instead of permitting the lot width variance, the proposed subdivision plan
for eight lots on 245 Street could be revised to satisfy the minimum lot width; however, the existing hedging and watercourse could not be retained. Alternatively, the subdivision plan
could be revised to satisfy the minimum lot width and be designed to maintain the existing hedging and watercourse In this case the lot yield would be reduced. CONCLUSION: The development
variance request is for less than a metre reduction in lot width and facilitates preservation of significant hedging and a watercourse. Therefore, it is recommended that Development
Variance Permit DVP/075/10 be approved. _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Amelia Bowden Planning Technician _______________________________________________

W SUBJECT: Development Variance Permit & Development Permit 11885, 11873 and 11865 Burnett Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Development Permit and Development Variance Permit applications
have been received for the above mentioned properties to regulate the form and character of the proposed apartment building. The subject site consists of three legal parcels within
the Town Centre Area, west of Burnett Street that will shortly be consolidated into one parcel. This project meets the requirements for inclusion in the Town Centre Incentives (TCI)
Program under the “New Residential Construction-4 storeys and higher” category falling within Sub Area 1 of the Town Centre Area. This application is in compliance with the Town Centre
Area Plan of the Official Community Plan. The proposal is for a four-storey apartment building with 75 units and under-ground parking in the RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential
District). Council gave Third Reading to this proposal on October 11, 2011. This report will address the requirements of Section 8.11 of the Official Community Plan for the Town Centre
Development Permit Guidelines. The Development Permit application is to regulate the form and character of the proposed apartment building and the Development Variance Permit application
is to vary some setback variances as described in this report. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2011-057-DVP respecting properties located at
11885, 11873 and 11865 Burnett Street; and further That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2011-057-DP respecting properties located at 11885, 11873 and 11865 Burnett

Site Area: 3,989.99 m2 Access: Burnett Street Servicing requirement: Full Urban Previous Applications: 2011-057-RZ b) Project Description: The subject site totalling a consolidated
area of 3,989.99 m2 is located on the west side of Burnett Street, along the eastern edge of the Town Centre Area. The proposal is to permit the construction of a wood frame, four-storied
apartment building with 75 units. This proposal is taking advantage of the reduced parking standards within the Central Business District of the Town Centre Area. All residential parking
for the proposed building is underground. As per the Town Centre Area Plan, a 2.5 metre future east-west bikeway connection is planned along the southern edge of the southern property
line. Half of this bikeway (1.25m) will be obtained now, with the remainder to be acquired from property to the south when it is redeveloped. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community
Plan & the Town Centre Area Plan: The subject property is located within the Central Business District and is designated “Low-rise Apartment” in the Town Centre Area Plan. The proposed
RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential) zoning complies with the Low-rise Apartment land use designation which is intended to be 3 to 5 storey apartment form of housing with central
access to all the units.
-3 -Civic Core Precinct – Town Centre Development Permit Guidelines: The Town Centre Development Permit Guidelines are meant to provide possible design solutions for achieving architecture
and site-related development objectives. Development proposals within the Civic Core Precinct Town Centre Development Permit Guidelines are being assessed against the following key
guidelines: Promote the Civic Core as the “heart” of the Town Centre The proposal is strategically located within the Central Business District of the Town Centre Area within walking
distance of several public amenities such as the library, leisure centre, park, shopping, schools and restaurants. Adding this density will revitalize the downtown core and promote
the use of existing facilities. Create a pedestrian-oriented, boutique-style shopping district At this location, the Town Centre Area Plan does not require ground floor commercial
uses. This is a purely residential development. However, it is important to note that vehicular and pedestrian circulation has been separated well, and units facing Burnett Street have
a street presence. Reference traditional architectural styles The proposed architectural style, design and materials such as a combination of vinyl shake siding and vertical board
and batten vinyl siding, perforated vinyl planks for soffits, painted wooden trims, artificial stone veneer at prominent locations, painted lumber brackets and painted metal flashing
is reflective of current architectural styles and are compatible with the existing development. A variety of units (one and two bedroom) have been proposed to cater to a variety of
housing needs and affordability. Capitalize on important views Units above the second floor are anticipated to enjoy some views of the mountains. Enhance existing cultural activities
and public open space Usable Open Space for residents is proposed as shown on the Site Plan (Appendix B). This is oriented to benefit from the southern exposure. The proposal is within
walking distance of the Public Library, Leisure Centre and the ACT. Provide climate appropriate landscaping and green features The proposed landscape plan shows native trees, shrubs
and ground-cover that are easy to maintain and absorb rain-water. The proposed trees are both shade-giving and ornamental in nature. Maintain street interconnectivity Street interconnectivity
is anticipated to be enhanced with the proposed off-site upgrades such as new sidewalk facing Burnett Street.
-4 -Zoning Bylaw: The proposed RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential) zone allows a medium density apartment use and specifies a Floor Space Ratio of 1.8. The applicant has proposed
a four storey wood frame building with a Floor Space Ratio of 1.61. The RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential) zone requires a common usable open space of 20% of the net lot area
and the applicant has proposed an open space of 26.3% (1027 m2). The zone also requires a Common Activity Area of 75m2 which has been included as an indoor common meeting room on the
main floor (Appendix C). The proposed building complies with the density and height requirements of the zone but some minor setback variances have been requested as described below.
Variances to the Zoning Bylaw: The zone specifies a 7.5 metre setback from all property lines. The applicant is seeking the following setback variances: i) Part 6, Section 604(6) (a)
of the RM-2 zone (Medium Density Apartment Residential) of the Zoning Bylaw, to vary the front yard setback (facing Burnett Street) from 7.5 metres to 5.32 metres; ii) Part 4, Section
403, 4(b)(1) of the Zoning Bylaw, to vary the siting of the sunlight control projections from 6.25 metres to 5.32 metres for the front yard setback (facing Burnett St); iii) Part 4,
Section 403, 4(b)(2) of the Zoning Bylaw, to vary the siting of the sunlight control projections from 6.89 metres to 6.70 metres for the interior side yard on the south; iv) Part 4,
Section 403, 4(b)(2) of the Zoning Bylaw, to vary the siting of the sunlight control projections from 6.89 metres to 6.36 metres for the interior side yard on the north; The above stated
variances are considered minor in nature and not anticipated to negatively impact any neighbours. These relaxations are consistent with others granted to similar projects within the
town centre area. Maple Ridge Off-Street Parking & Loading Bylaw #4350-1990: The Town Centre Parking Strategy revisited parking standards for some uses within the Town Centre Area and
includes revised parking standards for residences based on number of bedrooms for a multi-family residential use. This proposal benefits from the minimum parking standards due to its
location and because it is eligible for the Town Centre Incentives Program in Sub-Area 1. As per Section 10 of the Maple Ridge Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw #4350-1990, a minimum
of 0.9 spaces per unit are required for a bachelor apartment which increases by 0.1 space per additional bedroom. Based on these parking standards, for a total of 75 units (59 one bedroom
units and 16 two bedroom units), this project requires 77 residential parking spaces and 8 visitor parking spaces. Total proposed parking spaces are 97 spaces which includes 89 resident
parking stalls (including one handicapped parking space) and 8 visitor parking stalls (including one handicapped parking space). The developer considers providing a higher parking ratio
an important marketing tool. Except for the handicapped visitor parking stall, all are proposed in the underground parkade separated by an overhead security door from the residential
parking. As for long-term and short-term bicycle parking, 24 short-term bicycle racks and 21 long-term bicycle lockers will be provided.
-5 -d) Advisory Design Panel: On June 14, 2011, this proposal was reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel. The panel resolved that the application be supported and the following concerns
be addressed as the design develops and submitted to Planning staff for follow up; Consider switching the amenity room and adjacent room unit A; Consider flipping the southeast
unit A to introduce more exterior front windows; Consider walkway access to main floor north units; Consider stopping the stone veneer at the top of the 2nd floor at the entry;
Consider reworking the visitor parking and providing barrier free access to the elevator and lobby; Consider larger scale planting and evergreen adjacent to parkade walls; Consider
one tree species for pedestrian walkway allele parallel to ramp; Consider feature planting at main entry; Consider the addition of reveals at exposed concrete walls; Consider
reworking garbage room area; Consider extending roof over upper balconies; Consider enlarging main entrance lobby area; Consider reworking units B and C to improve access to natural
light and heat; Show short-term bicycle parking as required by the Parking Bylaw. The project architect has incorporated some revisions to the satisfaction of the panel. e) Interdepartmental
Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department have reviewed the proposal and confirmed that all the deficient off-site services will be provided through the Rezoning
Servicing Agreement. Parks & Leisure Services Department: The Parks & Leisure Services Department have identified that after the Development Permit is completed they will be responsible
for maintaining the street trees. The Manager of Parks & Open Space has advised that the maintenance requirement of $25.00 per new tree will increase their budget requirements. Fire
Department: The Fire Department has reviewed the proposal and comments have been provided to the applicant. The applicant has ensured that all these will be addressed through the Building
Permit drawings. Building Department: The Building Department has reviewed the proposal and comments have been provided to the applicant. The applicant has ensured that all these will
be addressed through the Building Permit drawings to comply with the code requirements.
-6 -f) Citizen/Customer Implications: The mail-outs to inform residents of the proposed setback variances were mailed 10 days prior to the anticipated Council Meeting date. Concerned
residents in the neighbourhood have had the opportunity to voice their opinions. g) Financial Implications: In accordance with Council’s Landscape Security Policy, a refundable security
equivalent to 100% of the estimated landscape cost will be provided to ensure satisfactory provision of landscaping in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Development Permit.
Based on an estimated landscape cost of $67,382.67 the security will be $ 67,382.67, payable prior to DP issuance. There will be some trees added to the municipal street tree inventory
on completion of this project. The costs associated with maintaining these trees will need to be included in a subsequent operating budget. h) Alternatives: Council has given Third
Reading to the rezoning application and will be reviewing the Final Reading Report for 2011-057-RZ at the May 22, 2012 Council Meeting. Council approval is required for the Town Centre
Development Permit as presented in this report prior to a Building Permit being issued. Council has the option of not approving the Development Permit and the Variance Permit. However,
not approving this proposal would result in a consolidated piece of land remaining vacant or the applicant having to significantly amend the current design. CONCLUSION: The proposed
use conforms to the Official Community Plan and the Town Centre Area Plan, with the need for only minor zoning variances, and fits well with the Town Centre Plan designation and Official
Community Plan policies of promoting residential density to revitalize the Town Centre Area. Therefore, it is recommended that 2011-057-DVP and 2011-057-DP be approved. _____________________________

W SUBJECT: Development Permit & Development Variance Permit 11378 Kingston Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Development Permit and Development Variance Permit applications have been received
for the subject site to support a proposed multi-tenant Industrial building in the M-3 (Business Park) zone. This is a zoned site and the M-3 (Business Park) zone permits a variety
of industrial uses. The Development Permit application is to regulate the form and character of the proposed industrial building and the Development Variance Permit application is to
vary some setbacks facing 113A Avenue and Kingston Street as described in this report. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2012/DVP/019 respecting
property located at 11378 Kingston Street; and further That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2012/DP/019 respecting property located at 11378 Kingston Street. DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context: Applicant: Rudy Giovanni, Adriatic Construction Commercial Ltd. Owner: Marinelli Investments(Kingston) Ltd. Legal Description: Lot: 35, Group: 1; D.L.: 280, Plan:
86659; PID: 016-470-087 OCP: Existing: Industrial Proposed: Industrial Zoning: Existing: M-3 (Business Park) Proposed: M-3 (Business Park) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Industrial and
113B Avenue Zone: M-3 (Business Park) Designation: Industrial South: Use: Industrial Zone: M-3 (Business Park) Designation: Industrial 1111
-2 -East: Use: Industrial Zone: M-3 (Business Park) Designation: Industrial West: Use: Industrial and Kingston Street Zone: M-3 (Business Park) Designation: Industrial Existing Use of
Property: Vacant Proposed Use of Property: Multi-tenanted Industrial building Access: Kingston Street Servicing: Full Urban Previous Applications: None b) Project Description: The subject
site (Appendix A), 2460 m2 in area is located in the District’s Industrial Park in west Maple Ridge and thus subject to the Industrial Development Permit Guidelines as outlined in the
2006 Official Community Plan. The site is located within the flood plain and thus will be required to register a flood plain covenant at the Building permit stage. The proposed building
is a concrete tilt-up structure with some steel and glass façade and stone veneer cladding along the base of each unit entrances. The proposed building is approximately 1176.80 m2 (12,667
ft2) in area and 8.61 metres in height. A future partial mezanine floor may be added if the tenants request. The loading doors for each unit and all the parking is proposed on the south
of the proposed structure, with vehicular access into the parking area from Kingston Street. It is anticipated to be a multi-tenanted building with six industrial units, 22 parking
stalls and six loading bays. Garbage and recycling is proposed in the south-east corner of the site, enclosed by a post and rail fence. Proposed landscaping includes some trees facing
Kingston street and 113B Avenue bordered by a decorative allan block retaining wall, sodded boulavard, permeable concrete pavers on the amenity patio, concrete walkway, concrete picnic
table and bike racks for visitors. Preliminary Stormwater Management Plan proposes installing a stormtech under the parking area and rock pit filtration system. c) Planning Analysis:
The purpose of the Industrial Development Permit is to promote quality Industrial development through attractive design that is compatible with adjacent development and conforms to
the Official Community Plan guidelines. Applications for Development Permits are assessed against the following Key Design concepts, as follows: 1. Provide a street presence with entrances
and architectural interest in building designs fronting public streets. Proposed landscaping fronting 113B Avenue and Kingston Street is an effort to provide better street presence
and soften the hard surfaces of the structure. The façade facing 113B Avenue is staggered to avoid monotony and present a well articulated streetscape (Appendix C). Pedestrian connectivity
is
-3 -enhanced from both the streets by walkways and to the parking/garbage enclosure with a concrete paver walkway along the eastern property boundary. Concrete sidewalk access from 115A
Avenue has been proposed for pedestrians. The proposed materials include: concrete tilt up, glass and steel panels for the façade with stone veneer cladding at prominent areas (Appendix
C). 2. Loading facilities should be located away from public streets and into the rear or the interior of a site. The proposed loading doors for each unit face south as shown on the
Site Plan, away from the 113A Avenue (Appendix B) and the public realms. 3. Outdoor storage and less attractive structures such as accessory buildings should be screened with fencing
or landscape. All their storage areas are located inside the units as this is anticipated to be multi-tenanted. There are no accessory buildings proposed. The garbage enclosure is fenced
as shown on the landscaping plan (Appendix D). 4. The transportation needs of diverse users should be accommodated through amenities such as bicycle facilities and accessible design
for the mobility impaired. This building is anticipated to be multi-tenanted after construction, so the owner has proposed 22 parking stalls instead of the required 19 stalls. A handicapped
parking spot is also provided as shown on the Site Plan (Appendix B). A bicycle rack is proposed facing Kingston Street close to the secondary building entrance. 5. The form and treatment
of new buildings should reflect the desired character and pattern of development in the area by incorporating appropriate architectural styles, features, materials, proportions and
building articulation. Most buildings in the vicinity were built prior to the current Official Community Plan industrial guidelines adopted in 2006. This building proposes an attractive,
well articulated building façade along both the street frontages. Proposed mezzanine floor glazing fenestrations are complementary to the raised parapet detailing and steel roof canopies,
while the steel and glass entrance canopies maintain a functional continuity. Stone cladding on bases of the unit front facades adds to the entry statement. (Appendix C). Zoning Bylaw:
The subject site is zoned M-3 (Business park). The project is in compliance with the maximum permitted lot coverage, height and parking required for this zone. The applicant is seeking
some setback variances to the building facades facing both 113B Avenue and Kingston Street and canopies facing 113b Avenue as described below.
-4 -d) Variances to the Zoning Bylaw: The applicant is seeking the following variances: i) Part 8, Section 803(6) (a) of the M-3 zone (Business Park) of the Zoning Bylaw, to vary the
front yard setback (facing 113B Avenue) from 6.0 metres to 5.0 metres; ii) Part 8, Section 803(6) (d) of the M-3 zone (Business Park) of the Zoning Bylaw, to vary the exterior side
yard setback (facing Kingston Street) from 4.5 metres to 4.29 metres; iii) Part 4, Section 403 (4)(b)(1) of the Zoning Bylaw, to vary the siting of the front yard canopies (facing 113B
Avenue) from 4.75 metres to 3.63 metres; iv) Part 4, Section 403 (4)(b)(1) of the Zoning Bylaw, to vary the siting of the exterior side yard canopies (facing Kingston Street) from 3.25
metres to 2.92 metres. The setback variances proposed for the building façade facing 113B Avenue and Kingston Street are minor in nature and with an intention of offering a better street
presence by staggering the units and enhancing the urban streetscape. The canopies are proposed only above the entrance doors to provide weather protection for each unit and not along
the full horizontal length of the facades. These variances are not anticipated to negatively impact any neigbours. e) Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw: As per the Maple Ridge Off-Street
Parking and Loading Bylaw, warehouse use in the M-3 (Business Park) zone requires 1 parking space per 93 m2 gross floor area for Industrial use giving a total of 19 parking spaces required.
The applicant has proposed 22 parking spaces and six loading bays with an intention of providing adequate number of spaces per unit for a multi-tenanted facility like this. Each parking
stall proposed is 2.5 metres X 5.5 metres and the six loading bays proposed are 2.68 metres X 9.5 metres in size. f) Advisory Design Panel: On April 10, 2012 the Advisory Design Panel
reviewed the proposed development and recommended the the application be supported and the following concerns be addressed as the design develops and submitted to Planning staff for
follow up: Consider a pedestrian access from Kingston Street to the side entrance; Consider adding a dedicated pathway on the east side that connects to the waste and recycling
enclosure; Consider expanding or increasing the planting around the property line to formalize the layout and provide a green edge or step the landscaping with the sidewalk; Coordinate
the street tree locations with the hydro pole boxes; Consider continuation of the stone treatment on the north elevation; Provide detail for the building exterior lighting plans;
Consider a planting screen or hand rail around the amenity area. The applicant has revised the project plans to accommodate these changes.
-5 -g) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department have reviewed the proposal and confirmed that all the off-site services exist in this area.
Fire Department: The Fire Department has reviewed the proposal and comments have been provided to the applicant. The applicant has ensured that all these will be addressed through the
Building Permit drawings. Parks & Leisure Services Department: The Parks & Leisure Services Department have identified that after the Development Permit is completed they will be responsible
for maintaining the street trees. The Manager of Parks & Open Space has advised that the maintenance requirement of $25.00 per new tree will increase their budget requirements. Building
Department: The Building Department has reviewed the proposal and comments have been provided to the applicant. The applicant has ensured that all these will be addressed through the
Building Permit drawings to comply with the code requirements. h) Citizen/Customer Implications: The mail-outs to inform residents of the proposed variances were mailed 10 days prior
to the anticipated Council Meeting date (i.e. May 22, 2012). Concerned residents in the neighbourhood have had the opportunity to voice their opinions. i) Financial Implications: In
accordance with Council’s Landscape Security Policy, a refundable security equivalent to 100% of the estimated landscape cost will be provided to ensure satisfactory provision of landscaping
in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Development Permit. Based on a cost-estimate provided by the Landscape Architect, the security will be $ 16,245.00 payable prior to
the issuance of a Development Permit. j) Alternatives: As per Section 8.6 of the Official Community Plan, an Industrial Development Permit is required for all new industrial development
within the urban area on lands designated “Industrial” on Schedule B of the Official Community Plan. The subject site, designated “Industrial” on Schedule B, prior to a Building Permit
application, requires Council approval of an Industrial Development Permit. This is a zoned site. Not approving this proposal would result in a piece of zoned land remaining vacant
within the District’s Industrial Park.
-6 -CONCLUSION: The proposed Industrial building follows the OCP’s Industrial design guidelines and will provide new employment opportunities for the community. The proposed setback
variances are minor in nature and not anticipated to negatively impact any neighbours. Therefore it is recommended that 2012-019-DP and 2012-019-VP be approved for issuance. ________________________

District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin DATE: May 14, 2012 and Members of Council FILE NO: OPS1204 FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: Committee of the Whole
SUBJECT: Contract Award: Pavement Rehabilitation Program EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: As part of Council’s commitment to infrastructure renewal and replacement, the backlog of roads requiring
pavement rehabilitation continues to be addressed. Improvements to our Road Network Infrastructure began in 2010 and continued through 2011. This year’s program combines 2012 allocated
funds from Capital, Maintenance and the Major Road Network Operations and Maintenance (MRN/OMR) areas for a total investment of over $1,000,000 in the road maintenance resurfacing this
year. RECOMMENDATION: That the extension of the 2010 contract for Pavement Rehabilitation be awarded to Imperial Paving Limited in the amount of $932,950.87 including $99,959.02 HST
and further that additional work locations may be added under extra work provisions in the contract up to 25% of the value of the Contract ($233,237.72 including HST) DISCUSSION: a)
Background Context: A public Invitation for Prequalification was conducted in 2010. Following a detailed assessment of the submissions three Contractors met the prequalification criteria.
All three submitted bids on the Pavement Rehabilitation work. An evaluation was done for the District of Maple Ridge by Aplin and Martin Consulting Engineers. It was been determined
that Imperial Paving provides best value to the District of Maple Ridge. This contract had multi year extension provisions. b) Financial Implications: The funding is approved within
the Financial Plan and is within budget. This is a unit price contract and as such a 25% extra work provision has been added for potential additional works within the approved budget
envelopes. The District’s Purchasing Policy requires that the potential to add additional works be identified to Council at the time of award. 1112
c) Planned Locations: The following locations are included in the 2012 program: Abernethy Way 224 to 227th Laurie/218th St/Dover West of Wicklow Donovan Ave 216th St to Wicklow Howison
Ave East and West of Hall St Graves St 117th to Camwood 224th St Brown Ave to 12300 blk 207th Lougheed to Camwood Fern Cres 24000blk 130th Ave top lift to Alouette rd Ditton Ave top
lift 112th Ave 240th to Kanaka Bridge McFarlane/209th ave/208 cul de sac 124th ave 224th to Edge Dewdney at 224th intersection In addition to the above, the paving of the right-of-way
within Kanaka Village has been added to the contract. The costs of this will be recovered from property owners. d) Future Works: This is a unit price contract and as such may be extended
to rehabilitate additional road surfaces depending on weather, time commitment, preparation and budget. Contract provisions allow the extension of this contract for up to 5 years by
mutual agreement with future prices determined by the price of oil/asphalt based on the Composite Rack Posting. CONCLUSION: The recommended contract award continues Council’s commitment
to infrastructure renewal and replacement. Award of the contract would see the work completed through the Spring and Summer of 2012. _______________________________________________

District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin DATE: May 14, 2012 and Members of Council FILE NO: OPS1205 FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: Committee of the Whole
SUBJECT: Contract Award: Bridge Barrier and Railing Replacement EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Council’s commitment to infrastructure renewal and replacement is manifesting in the District’s ability
to develop required renewal and replacement programs. One such area is the required safety upgrades on municipal bridges. The provision of funding through the Infrastructure Sustainability
Fund has allowed for systematic planning and scheduling for much needed repairs and upgrades. On a three year rotating basis, the District of Maple Ridge undertakes a structural and
safety inspection of its bridges. This work is carried out by qualified professional structural engineers. As part of the 2011 inspection the consultant firm of MMM Group Ltd inspected
and assessed the condition of bridge barriers. The barriers were assessed for conformance with the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC). The assessment identified that several
bridge traffic barriers and railing structures required replacement to meet current safety standards. Tenders for the work were received in April 2012. A detailed analysis and evaluation
of these tenders concluded that Coquitlam Ridge Contracting Limited is the preferred tenderer. RECOMMENDATION: That the Bridge Barrier and Railing Replacement Contract be awarded to
Coquitlam Ridge Contracting Limited in the amount of $217,452.03 including $23,298.43 HST and further that additional work may be added under extra work provisions in the contract up
to 25% of the value of the Contract ($54,363 including HST). DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: On a three year rotating basis, the District of Maple Ridge undertakes a structural and
safety inspection of its bridges. This work is carried out by qualified professional structural engineers. As part of the 2011 inspection the consultant firm of MMM Group Ltd inspected
and assessed the condition of bridge barriers. The barriers were assessed for conformance with the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC). The assessment identified that 1113
several bridge traffic barriers and railing structures required replacement to meet current safety standards. Each barrier system has been assessed on structural capacity and geometrical
criteria. Structural capacities were evaluated for main structural components including rails, posts and post connection details. As part of MMM Group’s assessment, recommendations
were made to upgrade bridge barriers. Following detailed design, tenders were issued for three bridges. A public Invitation for Tender closed April 25, 2012 and five tenders were received.
MMM Group Ltd has provided design recommendations and will provide inspection and professional services during the installation work. They have reviewed the submission and the contractor’s
qualifications. Following a detailed assessment of the submissions it is found that Coquitlam Ridge Contracting Limited provides best value to the District of Maple Ridge. b) Planned
Locations: Three bridges are recommended for upgrades in 2012. Kanaka Creek Bridge at 112th Avenue and 240th Street was built in 1958. The existing bridge barrier on this structure
comprises of timber posts and rails, side mounted to the superstructure. The post connection, posts and rails are considered to have insufficient capacity for the impact load. The existing
timber members exhibit considerable rotting. Overall, this bridge barrier system is considered to have unacceptable in-service performance and retrofit is recommended with high priority
due to the current condition of the barrier and severity under failure. Coho Creek Bridge at 228th Street and 125B Avenue was constructed in 1982. The existing bridge barrier on this
structure comprises of timber post and rails, side mounted on timber stringers. The post connection, posts and rails are considered to have insufficient capacity for the impact load.
Millionaire Creek on Fern Crescent at 129 Avenue was constructed in 1975. The existing bridge barrier on this structure comprises of timber posts and rails, side mounted on timber
stringers. The post connection, posts and rails are considered to have insufficient capacity for the impact load. This bridge barrier system is considered to have unacceptable in-service
performance. c) Financial Implications: Council’s commitment to infrastructure renewal and replacement is manifesting in the District’s ability to develop required renewal and replacement
programs. One such area is the required safety upgrades on municipal bridges. The provision of funding through the Infrastructure Sustainability Fund has allowed for systematic planning
and scheduling. The funding for this project is included in the 2012 Capital Budget. The proposed expenditure is within budget. A contingency provision of 25% has been added for additional
works within the approved budget envelopes.
CONCLUSION: Bridges are a critical infrastructure asset in our community and ongoing upgrades, repairs and maintenance will ensure that they continue to provide key links for our transportation
network. The Infrastructure Sustainability Fund provided by Council is fundamental to the Districts ability to undertake these works. Award of the contract will see the work carried
out through Spring of 2012. _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Russ Carmichael, AScT, Eng.L Director of Engineering Operations _____________________________________________

District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: May 14, 2012 and Members of Council FILE NO: CDPR-0640-30 FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Committee
of the Whole SUBJECT: Experience the Fraser Concept EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Experience the Fraser (ETF) concept is based on providing a framework of support for a trail network following
the Fraser River from Hope to the Salish Sea. Developing this concept plan has involved the participation of Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley Regional District, the Province, First
Nations, Federal agencies, several municipalities along the Fraser River corridor, non-government organizations and special interest groups to develop the ETF concept plan. As municipalities
located on this trail network the City of Pitt Meadows, and the District of Maple Ridge have been participating in the ETF project through Parks and Leisure Services for the past two
years. The concept plan has now been endorsed by Metro Vancouver and Fraser Valley Regional Districts who were the lead agencies on this project. Municipalities who have been participating
in the ETF project are now being approached with three recommendations to consider as the project moves past the concept to the implementation stage. RECOMMENDATIONS: That Council:
1. Endorse the Experience the Fraser Concept as a regionally important and beneficial initiative that warrants broad participation; 2. Commit to integrating the Experience the Fraser
Concept into municipal plans and actions wherever feasible; and 3. Agree to the continued appointment of a municipal liaison to the Experience the Fraser program and participation in
an annual information sharing workshop to celebrate Experience the Fraser and track implementation progress. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: In developing the concept plan a network
of 550 km of trails (the Vision Route) would be required to achieve the goal of connecting Hope to the Salish Sea. An inventory of existing trails along the Vision Route indicates that
43% of this trail network already exists. These trails connect with existing recreational opportunities along the route which is one of the goals of ETF, to link and inspire experiences
along the Fraser River. The Vision Route is a long term objective 1151
to be implemented over decades. The intent of this route was to follow and feature the Fraser River as closely as possible: however the long-term route will be aligned to harmonize with
working river industrial activities, sensitive natural features, private land, and First Nation land interests. Most times it will mean going around these features, but creative ways
of integrating the Trail into such landscapes and uses can produce the richest experiences. The preferred alignment also reflects the original partnership between the Province, the
Fraser Valley Regional District and Metro Vancouver, therefore reflecting the desire to connect provincial and regional parks and facilities and to include sufficient amenities to facilitate
multi day travel (e.g. camping). It was also an objective to advance the Trans Canada Trail alignment through the Lower Fraser River Corridor. In the shorter term, a proposed Interim
Route would utilize existing trails and roads allowing users to travel from end to end in the short term. This alignment is subject to agreement and participation by the agencies, organizations
and local governments along the route. There are over 300 Amenity and Feature Points identified as locations to “experience” the river be it through infrastructure and/or programs along
this route. A Foundational Program of 60 actions and projects, which is a subset of these 300 points, illustrates some project priorities that are deemed essential to build identity
for ETF and offer a strong presence of the project on the ground. It is a recommended set of priority actions and is intended to have the flexibility to be guided by the various partners
choosing to participate in delivery. As funding is secured, the program can advance. However, if resources or priorities change, the Foundational Program can adapt and projects offering
a similar impact in advancing the program may be substituted. One of these program priorities for the City of Pitt Meadows is to provide a link from the trail network west of the Golden
Ears Bridge with Maple Ridge through to the Port Hammond neighbourhood. Although this is identified as a program priority for the City of Pitt Meadows, there will likely be the need
to consider providing a trail in Maple Ridge to connect at the municipal boundary with Pitt Meadows. Staff in Parks and the Planning Department will continue to look for opportunities
to complete this trail section as a condition of any land development applications that may be considered in this area of the two communities. Nodes are destinations along the Trail
or locations where people can come to the project to “Experience the Fraser” without having to travel the trail. They are characterized as having a cluster of amenities, features and
experiences close together, are in a location where there is an existing or planned population density or community, are intersecting with the trail, and are providing an access point
and amenities for the Blueway. The Blueway by definition is the river and includes the supporting infrastructure that facilitates water access to the river such as launching sites,
signage, day use facilities, piers, viewpoints and camping opportunities. A desired Foundational Program project is also identified for the Port Haney Wharf. The wharf is a Blueway
amenity that forms the focus for the Port Haney Node and could provide the space to support an information kiosk. The Foundational Program identified eighteen locations along the river
where kiosks will act as a point of introduction, information and orientation to the Trail in existing nodes where the Interim Route and the Vision Route coincide. The Concept Plan
was developed through an assessment of the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Park and Recreation Master Plan and the Official Community Plans of Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows. As a result
the Concept Plan for the Maple Ridge section identifies actions that are already identified in current municipal plans, and will be funded by the appropriate capital or operating budgets.
Any projects not previously identified in the Park and Recreation Master Plan, would be submitted to Council for approval of funding in subsequent capital budgets.
CONCLUSIONS: The endorsement of the Experience the Fraser concept will demonstrate the commitment of the District of Maple Ridge in supporting the ETF goal of achieving a continuous
trail from Hope to the Salish Sea. _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Bruce McLeod, MBCSLA, Manager of Parks Planning & Development ________________________________________
