District of Maple Ridge COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA November 13, 2007 7:00 p.m. Council Chamber MEETING DECORUM Council would like to remind all people present tonight that serious issues are decided at Council meetings which affect many people's lives. Therefore, we ask that you act with the appropriate decorum that a Council Meeting deserves. Commentary and conversations by the public are distracting. Should anyone disrupt the Council Meeting in any way, the meeting will be stopped and that person's behavior will be reprimanded. Note: This Agenda is also posted on the Municipal Web Site at www.mapleridge.ca The purpose of a Council meeting is to enact powers given to Council by using bylaws or resolutions. This is the final venue for debate of issues before voting on a bylaw or resolution. 100 CALL TO ORDER 200 OPENING PRAYERS Pastor Gordon Necemer, Harvest Christian Fellowship Church 300 INTRODUCTION OFADDITIONAL AGENDA ITEMS 400 APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA 500 ADOPTION AND RECEIPT OF MINUTES 501 Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting of October 23, 2007 502 Minutes of the Development Agreements Committee Meetings of October 22(3), 25, 26(2), and November 2, 2007 600 PRESENTATIONS AT THE REQUEST OF COUNCIL Page 1 Council Meeting Agenda November 13, 2007 Council Chamber Page 2 of 7 700 DELEGATIONS 800 UNFINISHED BUSINESS 900 CORRESPONDENCE 1000 BYLAWS Bylaws for Final Reading 1001 RZ/082/06, 11384 and 11410 Burnett Street Staff report dated October 31, 2007 recommending final reading. 1001.1 Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6453-2006 To amend Schedule "B" of the Official Community Plan to designate from Urban Residential to Conservation to allow for the enhancement and relocation of Roslyn Creek.

The applicant has requested that final reading be granted. The purpose of the rezoning is to permit the construction of 19 townhouse units (seven 3 bedroom and twelve 2 bedroom units) in the RM-1 zone along with the proposed compensation works such as removal of invasive species and re -vegetation within the conservation areas plus the relocation, enhancement and dedication of a portion of the Roslyn Creek and land around it (2310.3 m2 of the site will be dedicated as "Park"). RECOMMENDATION: That Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6453-2006 be adopted; and That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6454-2006 be adopted. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Council considered this rezoning application at a Public Hearing held on May 16, 2007. On May 23, 2007 .Council granted 2nd and 3rd reading to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6453-2006 and Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6454-2006 with the stipulation that the following conditions be addressed: i) Registration of a Rezoning Development Agreement including the deposit of security as outlined in the Agreement; ii) Registration of a statutory right-of-way agreement for drainage; iii) Road dedication as required along Burnett Street; iv) Removal of all existing building(s); v) Park dedication as required; vi) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant protecting & maintaining the on site enhanced riparian areas; vii) Notification to the Ministry of Environment and Federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans, regarding proposed in stream works; viii) Registration of a Geotechnical Restrictive Covenant; ix) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant to maintain visitor parking on site; The following applies to the above: ✓ A rezoning Development Agreement including the deposit of security as outlined in the Agreement along with rezoning servicing drawings approved by the Engineering Department, have been submitted by the applicant. ✓ A Statutory right-of-way covenant along with the ROW plan showing the location on site has been registered in the Land Title Office. ✓ A road dedication plan which also shows the park dedication has been registered in the land Title Office. ✓ A demolition permit has been acquired by the applicant and all buildings removed from the site. ✓ A Restrictive Covenant protecting & maintaining the on site enhanced riparian area pockets outside the dedicated park area has been registered in the Land Title Office. ✓ Ministry of Environment and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans have been notified of the proposed relocation and enhancement works around Roslyn Creek and approved the proposed works within the fisheries window. ✓ A Geotechnical Restrictive Covenant has been registered at the Land Title Office. ✓ A Restrictive Covenant to maintain visitor parking on site has been registered at the Land Title Office. In addition to all the above an "Enhancement and Protection Agreement" has been signed between the applicant and the District along with a refundable security deposit of $56,560.25 as a part of the Watercourse Development Permit, which will ensure a 5-year maintenance period for the riparian areas around the relocated Roslyn Creek. -2- CONCLUSION: This 19 unit townhouse development is designed to blend in as much as possible with the existing topography and promises enhancement of Roslyn Creek by its relocation, Park dedication and re - vegetation along Burnett Street. Considering the nature of the project and its proximity to environmentally sensitive areas, the proposed compensation works around Roslyn Creek will not only be aesthetically pleasing but also a great improvement for the natural surrounding and local habitat. As the applicant has met Council's conditions, it is recommended that final reading be given to the bylaws.

Council resolved to consider final adoption of the two bylaws after Council's summer break and directed staff to proceed with a public consultation program which consisted of specific actions, described in more detail in the report. As all of those actions have been completed, final reading is being requested. RECOMMENDATION: That Maple Ridge Development Procedures Amending Bylaw No. 6477-2007 be adopted; and That Maple Ridge Delegation Bylaw No. 6478-2007 be adopted. BACKGROUND: History: On June 26, 2007 Council granted 2nd and 3rd reading to Maple Ridge Development Procedures Amending Bylaw No. 6477-2007 and Maple Ridge Delegation Bylaw No. 6478-2007. They further resolved that, following a public consultation process, consideration of final reading of the two bylaws be given after Council's summer break; and that the outcomes of the changes be. reviewed in June 2008. They directed staff to proceed with the following actions: 1) Provide information pertaining to the changes to the development process at the front counter at Municipal Hall; 2) Place ads in the local newspapers; 3) Present information at a Builder's Forum; and 4) Provide information on the website. i flll The following applies to the above: 1. Information regarding the changes has been available at the front counter since June, 2007; 2. A total of 8 ads requesting. comments on the process were placed in both local newspapers on July 10, 11, 13, 14, 17, 18, 20 and 21 with a deadline of August 31, 2007. Two responses were received - one from Pacific Land Resource Group Inc. and one from Smart Centres. The first suggested Council be provided with an early opportunity to be introduced to the project and the second noted the higher costs associated with processing a development permit at the time of rezoning. Both of these items had been discussed with Council in the initial review of the bylaws. The level of response indicates that further action is not required; 3. A presentation about the changes was made at the Builder's Forum held on September 20, 2007. Opportunity for input or comment on the changes was made available to that group until 4:00 pm on October 5, 2007. No comments were received; 4. Information and the opportunity for comment were provided on the website in a prominent location until August 31, 2007. The information is still available online. CONCLUSION: As all Council's directions have been followed and no significant issues. have arisen, it is recommended that final reading be given to Bylaws No. 6477-2007 and 6478-2007. repared a M�PMC.I.P Director of Planning Approved by.

This application is in compliance with the Official Community Plan. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. That Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6518-2007 be given first reading and be forwarded to Public Hearing; 2. 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. 6518-2007 on the municipal website, and Council considers it unnecessary to provide any further consultation opportunities, except by way of holding a public hearing on the bylaw; 3.

DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owner: Legal Description: OCP: Existing: Proposed: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Surrounding Uses North: South: East: West: Use: Zone: Designation Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Site Area: Access: Servicing: Companion Applications: Previous Application: Gregory H Cockrill Richard W Thompson, Susan B Thompson Gregory H Cockrill, Audrey A Cockrill Lot: 11, Section: 27, Township: 12, Plan: 2510 Lot: 12, Section: 27, Township: 12, Plan: 2510 Suburban Residential Conservation, Suburban Residential RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) South Alouette River, Residential RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Conservation, Suburban Residential Residential RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Suburban Residential Residential RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Estate Residential South Alouette River, Vacant, Forest RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Conservation Residential Residential 4.03 HA (10 acres) Alouette Road Individual septic systems, community water DP/049/07, SD/014/06 RZ/014/06 -2- b) Project Description: Application RZ/049/07 requests to rezone the two properties located on Alouette Road from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to permit subdivision into 6 parcels not less than 4000m2 (1 acre) in area. ABM Engineering Services completed an initial investigation on septic feasibility for the poposed subdivision and have concluded that all 6 lots are serviceable by septic systems. This application also includes the proposal to return part of the South Alouette River located on the subject properties back to the Crown and dedicate a total of 5519 m2 (1.36 ac) of parkland to the District, 4358 m2 dedicated at time of rezoning and an additional 1161 m2 to be dedicated upon future removal of the existing house located within the 30 metre watercouse management protection area setback. One of the subject properties, 12931 Alouette Road (Lot: 11, Section: 27, Township: 12, Plan: 2510) was the subject of an earlier application (RZ/014/06) that requested a rezoning from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to allow for a three lot subdivision. This application was defeated by Council at second and third reading on January 9, 2007. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: This neighbourhood is currently designated Suburban Residential in the Official Community Plan. The proposed RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) zone correlates with this designation. Zoning Bylaw: The proposed subdivision complies with the minimum lot width, depth and area requirements prescribed for RS-2 lots as specified by the zoning bylaw. Development Permits: The site is subject to Watercourse Protection Development Permit. As per Section 8.9 of the Official Community Plan, it will be necessary for the applicant to obtain a Watercourse Protection Development Permit prior to any works occurring within 50 metres of the top of bank of the South Alouette River. The applicant will be providing park land dedication for the riparian area for protection of this watercourse as a condition of rezoning the site. The Development Permit will ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and riparian areas and a -3- Security may be taken as a condition of issuance of the Development Permit to uphold the conditions outlined in the permit. d) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department conducted a rezoning application review and concluded that there are no servicing deficiencies. The proposed lots will be served by the municipal water system and have on -site sewage disposal systems. The proposed sewage systems must be registered with the Fraser Health Authority. Details of the servicing issues will be dealt with through the subdivision process. e) 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, (Appendix B), is considered to be minor in nature. It has been determined that no additional consultation beyond existing procedures is required, including referrals to the Board of the Metro Vancouver, 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 Metro Vancouver and determined to have no impact. f) Environmental Implications: The South Alouette River is located on the north western side of the subject property. and has a required 30 metre setback from top -of -bank. It is the intention to return the part of the River located on the subject property up to the present natural boundary back to the Crown and dedicate the first 30 metres back from the South Alouette to Municipality as park. There is an existing house located within the 30 metre environmental setback that will remain under residential use with a restrictive covenant allowing the rest of the setback area to be dedicated at such time the house is removed. -4- CONCLUSION: As the proposed development complies with the Official Community Plan and Zoning Bylaw, it is recommended that this application be favourably considered and be given first reading and forwarded to Public Hearing.

This application is in compliance with the Official Community Plan. RECOMMENDATION: That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6517-2007be given first reading and be forwarded to Public Hearing. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owner: Legal Description: OCP: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Zone: Designation South: Use: Zone: Designation Dennis E Roberge Dennis E Roberge Audrey E Roberge Lot: 26, Section: 17, Township: 12, Plan: 16992 Urban Residential RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) R-1(Residential District) Single Family Residential R-1(Residential District) Urban Residential Single Family Residential RS-1(One Family Urban Residential) Urban Residential East: Use: Zone: Designation: West: Use: Zone: Designation: Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Properties: Site Area: Access: Servicing: Companion Applications: b) Project Description: Single Family Residential R-1(Residential District) Urban Residential Single Family Residential R-1(Residential District) Urban Residential Single Family Residential Single Family Residential 994 M2 Cliff Avenue and 117 Avenue Full Urban SD/062/07 An application has been submitted to rezone the property located at 23045 117 Avenue from RS-1 (One Family Urban. Residential) to R-1 (Residential District) to permit the subdivision into 2 lots. The minimum parcel size prescribed for the R-1 (Residential District) zone is 371 m2. The future lots will front onto Cliff Avenue and 117 Avenue respectively. It is proposed that the existing dwelling and garage building on the future lot fronting 117 Avenue will remain. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The property is designated Urban Residential on Schedule "B" of the District of Maple Ridge Official Community Plan (OCP) which permits a range of housing types within the Urban Area Boundary. The proposal complies with this land use designation and aids the objective to direct urban growth within the Urban Area Boundary. The OCP aims "to manage residential growth through infill and intensification in a manner that respects neighbourhoods and the existing physical character of the surrounding areas". Neighbourhood Residential Infill is permitted in the OCP subject to compliance with the criteria found in Section 3-19. Compatibility Criteria Infill development on a property is permitted subject to compliance with the following criteria: i) The infill development is on a property that is larger than the prevailing lot size of the surrounding neighbourhood The cumulative size of the subject property is larger than the prevailing lot size in the surrounding neighbourhood. This application meets the criteria. IWM ii) the proposed lot area and widths should be not less than 80% of the lot area and width prescribed in the predominate or adjacent zoning in the surrounding neighbourhood: The predominant zones in this area are R-1(Residential District) and RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential). The minimum width for RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) is 15 metres and the R-1(Residential District) zone minimum width is 12 metres; 12 is 80% of 15. A subdivision application has been received to create 2 lots with lot areas of 454.0 m2 and 525.4 m2 respectively. These lot areas are also not less than 80% of the prevailing lot size in the surrounding area. This application meets the criteria. iii) The proposed lot configuration is similar to the prevailing lot pattern that exists within the neighbourhood The proposed lot configuration will be identical to the lot pattern in the neighbourhood. This application meets this criterion. iv) The proposed housing form is consistent in scale and massing to that of the surrounding neighbourhood. The lot coverage for all residential zones in this area is 40%. The proposed zoning is consistent with this single family residential neighbourhood and the housing form regulations in the R-1(Residential District) are not dramatically different than the surrounding residential lots. This application meets this criterion. Zoning Bylaw: A preliminary review of the plans in relation to the Zoning Bylaw requirements has revealed that the proposal complies with the bylaw. The applicant is proposing to subdivide the property into 2 lots which meet the minimum lot width, lot depth and lot area requirements of the R-1 (Residential District) zone. The existing buildings which are proposed to be retained meet the minimum setbacks. d) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department reviewed the servicing for the development and has determined that all required services exist for rezoning of the subject properties. Street trees will be a servicing requirement at the subdivision stage. Road dedication of 0.86 m on 117 Avenue to bring it up to urban local standard and an in -trust contribution for future highway upgrading on the north side of 117 Avenue fronting the property will also be a requirement at the subdivision stage. Fire Department: The fire department had no concerns with this 2 lot subdivision. -3- e) Environmental Implications: The subject property is relatively flat, only has a few trees, and is not impacted by watercourses. CONCLUSION: The proposed R-1(Residential District) zone conforms to the land use designation in the Official Community Plan. It is therefore recommended that application RZ/062/07 be favourably considered and that Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6517-2007 (Appendix B) be read a first time and be forwarded to Public Hearing.

The Applicant's submission conforms with the notice of application requirements of the Agricultural Land Commission. Analysis shows that the applicant's intended use for the properties is contrary to the current Official Community Plan policies adopted by Council in 2006. The properties are also in the Metro Vancouver Green Zone. The Agricultural Advisory Committee established by Council earlier this year is undertaking an Agricultural Plan for the District. Council may decide that exclusion applications prior to the completion of that Plan are premature. At their February 14, 2005 Workshop, Council resolved that the process for referring applications to the Agricultural Land Commission include the following options: a) The application not be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission. b) The application be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission with a summary of Council's comments. RECOMMENDATION: That the application not be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owner: Legal Description: Aragon Development Corp Victoria L Gerndt, Douglas Bell and Cheryl Bell Lot 2 and Lot 3, Section 22, Township 12, Plan 3118 OCP: Agricultural' Zoning: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Surrounding Uses North: Use: Zone: Designation: South: Use: Zone: Designation: East: Use: Zone: Designation: West: Use: Zone: Designation: Private School P-1(Park and School) Agriculture (Draft OCP), 100% within the Agricultural Land Reserve. 4 properties, rural residential and farm use RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Agricultural, 100 % within the Agricultural Land Reserve, 2 properties with farm status as defined by BC Assessment Authority. 2 ALC approved developments within the Agricultural Land Reserve: utility use (hydro substation) and non farm use (school use). RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Agricultural, 100% within the Agricultural Land Reserve. 8 properties, 7 used as residential, one for service commercial purposes 7 properties zoned RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential), one property zoned CS-1(Service Commercial) properties designated suburban residential and 1 property designated Rural Commercial Existing Use: Rural residential and farm. Proposed Use: 80,000 square foot Commercial Centre. Site Area: 6.4 hectares (15.8 acres) Access: Dewdney Trunk Road Servicing: Both subject properties are outside of the Urban Area Boundary but have sewer and water services. Previous Applications: Applications AL/017/O6 and AL/040/05 concerned both subject properties for a similar proposed use and exclusion from the Agricultural Land Reserve. Council denied both applications from proceeding to the Agricultural Land Commission. A non -farm use application (AL/052/00) for school purposes was made for both subject properties. This application was approved by the Agricultural Land Commission, and the northern portions of the subject properties were subdivided and subsequently rezoned for this purpose. b) Project Description: The applicants are requesting the exclusion of the subject properties from the Agricultural Land Reserve in order to develop them as a 7,432 square meter (80,000 square foot) Community Commercial center. A watercourse traverses both subject properties. c) Planning Analysis: At their February 14, 2005 Workshop, Council resolved: That the process for referring applications to the Agricultural Land Commission as resolved at the July 19, 2004 Council Workshop be amended to include the following options only: c) The application not be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission. d) The application be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission with a summary of Council's comments. Official Community Plan. Policies The subject properties are not within the Urban Area Boundary, and the Agricultural designation of the subject properties did not change with the Official Community Plan, which was adopted on November 14, 2006. This bylaw contains growth management policies which must be considered in light of the merits of this application, including: Policy 2 - 4 Outside the Urban Area boundary, commercial growth will be directed to rural commercial and historic commercial centres. Relevance of Policy 2 - 4. Rural Commercial centres are intended to meet the needs of a rural population and are typically less than 93m2 (1,000ft2) in area. Historic Commercial Centres are intended to be the commercial hearts of the historic communities they serve. The scale of this proposed use greatly exceeds the typical size of either rural or historic center. The proposed location is not appropriate for a historic centre. On this basis, this proposed use should be considered an urban use outside of the Urban Area Boundary, and is therefore inconsistent with the policy direction of the Official Community Plan. Policy 2 - 6 Maple Ridge supports and maintains the Urban Area Boundary recognizing the role that is has on limiting urban expansion, preserving community character, reducing land speculation within the Agricultural Land Reserve and protecting the agricultural land base, and in providing for the efficient delivery of services. Adjustments to the Urban Area Boundary: a) will only be supported if the District has an adopted Agricultural Plan; b) will only be considered in cooperation with the Agricultural Land Commission and the Greater Vancouver Region District (now Metro Vancouver); and c) will only be conducted during a Comprehensive Official Community Plan review, or Council directed Comprehensive Urban Area Boundary review, and applications considered outside of the either review are considered premature. Relevance of Policy 2 - 6. On the basis of this policy, this development proposal cannot be supported. The Official Community Plan introduced new supportive policies for agriculture that have particular relevance to this application, including: SIE Policy 6-10 Maple Ridge will strive to maintain its agricultural land base in Maple Ridge through the following mechanisms:.. b) respecting the integrity of the urban area boundary by establishing a distinct separation between rural and urban designated areas:... Relevance of Policy 6-10. The subject site is adjacent to other agricultural land and any non- farm uses could have a significant impact on the agricultural potential of these properties. Active farming does take place nearby. Properties located at 24162, 24269, and 24331Dewdney Trunk Road have farm exempt status according to BC Assessment Authority Statistics. Policy 6-12 Maple Ridge will protect the productivity of its agricultural land by:... c) preserving larger farm units and areas by using appropriate buffers such as roads, topographic features, watercourses, ditching, fencing, or gradually reduced residential densities on properties adjacent to agricultural land;... Relevance of Policy 6 -12. The current lot configuration of the adjacent properties along 2401h Street is an appropriate interface between the agricultural areas to the east of 2401h Street and land uses to the west, which are within the urban area boundary. These properties range in size from 0.2 hectares (0.5 acres) to 0.6 hectares (1.38 acres). These lot sizes are consistent with the policy direction in the Official Community Plan, which identifies gradually reduced residential densities next to agricultural land as an interface buffer. The effectiveness of this interface would be undermined by the exclusion of the subject properties from the Agricultural Land Reserve. Other Considerations • The subject properties are not within the Fraser Sewerage Area Boundary. Requirements prior to permitting an urban style of development include an application to the_ Greater Vancouver Sewerage and Drainage District Board to permit sewer extension, and an application to the Metro Vancouver Regional District to amend the Regional Context Statement as it applies to the Green Zone and to the urban area boundary. There is no guarantee that such applications would be approved. • The proposed development of these properties is inconsistent with the long term goals of the community and the Region. This application is in an area which lies outside the urban area boundary and is designated as Green Zone in the Livable Region Strategic Plan. Maple Ridge must consider the four fundamental strategies of the Livable Region Strategic Plan (LRSP) when considering future development: i) Protection of the Green Zone; ii) Building of complete communities; iii) Achievement of a compact metropolitan region; and iv) Increased transportation choice. • This application proposes a significant urban use for properties that lie outside of the urban area boundary, and is therefore not supportable under the Regional Context Statement. Any proposed use for these properties that would require an exclusion from the Agricultural Land Reserve would also require an amendment to the Livable Region Strategic Plan and the Green Zone through an application to the Metro Vancouver Regional District Board. To date, no such proposed amendments have been successful. ® It is anticipated that the exclusion of these lands would prompt further ALR exclusion applications and requests for amendments to the Green Zone. Council has directed that an Agricultural Plan be completed. The Agricultural Advisory Committee established by Council this year has undertaken to complete the Agricultural Plan. Council may decide that exclusion applications in advance of the Agricultural Plan are premature. Commercial Land Use Study The Commercial Lands Study was produced by J.P. Rollo and Associates as background information to guide the review of the Official Community Plan. The policy recommendations derived from the J.P. Rollo and Associates Commercial Land Use Study were presented to Council on November 1, 2004. The report findings indicated that a community commercial centre was needed to serve residents of East Haney / Cottonwood and East Maple Ridge. The initial optimum size for this centre was considered to be 6,967 square meters (75,000 square feet), and with population growth, could expand to between 11,612 and 13,935 square meters (125,000 and 150,000 square feet) over the next several years. It was noted that commercial development had commenced at the northeast corner of 24011 Street and Dewdney Trunk Road. (Cooper's Foods store). To further develop this area to serve this market, all corners of this intersection could be considered for commercial development of either an urban or a rural nature. The subject properties are not directly at this intersection and therefore are inconsistent with the recommended prime location for commercial development. In addition, their combined area is 6.4 hectares, or 15.8 acres, which is equivalent to over 64,000 square meters (688,900 square feet). The stated intent of this application is to build 7,432 square meters (80,000 square feet) of commercial floor space, significantly lower than maximum lot coverage on a site of this size. At 40 % maximum lot coverage, the combined subject properties could accommodate over 25,457 square meters (275,000 square feet) of commercial floor space, which greatly exceeds projected demand as outlined in the Commercial Land Use Study. Development of this size could undermine opportunities for existing and future commercial uses both in this area and potentially in the downtown which Council has identified as a priority for increased residential density and commercial redevelopment. Table 1 provides the commercial floor space potential for each of the subject properties identified on Appendix II at the intersection of Dewdney Trunk Road and 240th Street that are either zoned or designated for commercial uses under the Official Community Plan. -5- Prop.

The appropriate rural commercial zone is CS-4, which is restricted to a commercial floor space of 279 square meters (3,000 square feet). The combined commercial floor space potential of these properties at this intersection meet the identified current needs and are generally sufficient to meet projected demand as estimated in the Commercial Land Use Study. In addition, a Neighbourhood Commercial centre is designated at 1121h Avenue and 240th Street. Retail development at this location would also serve residents in the neighbourhoods of Albion and.Cottonwood. . d) Alternatives: Council has the option of forwarding this application to the Agricultural Land Commission for their consideration. It should be noted that if this exclusion application is successful, the approval of the Metro Vancouver Regional District would be required to exempt this property from the Green Zone of the Livable Region Strategic Plan. M CONCLUSION: Council has been provided with a range of options for processing this application. The staff recommendation is not to forward the application based upon considerations as outlined within this report.

The site is relatively flat for the first half starting at Burnett Street and then slopes up to the east and north end, leveling off at the top of the slope. A Geotechnical Site Assessment Report was submitted by a professional engineer indicating the site suitable for three storey townhouse residential development and this report will be attached to the Geotechnical Restrictive Covenant prior to final reading. Two existing structures will be removed as a condition of final reading and the applicant has submitted the demolition permits. The total proposed gross built area for the 19 units (seven 3 bedroom and twelve 2 bedroom units) is 4152.53 m2. The proposed units are wood -framed structures designed to blend well into a nature - inclusive design. A Watercourse Protection Development Permit is required to establish protection, restoration and enhancement criteria in relation to Roslyn Creek at the west end of the property and has been incorporated. in a separate report. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The 2006 Official Community Plan designates the subject site for residential use and the proposed development is subject to "Multi -Family Development Permit Guidelines". The subject site is comprised of two lots, both designated for residential use. The District will support a range of densities and housing forms within the Urban Area Boundary and thus considers townhouses an acceptable use on the lands. -2- Multi -Family Development Permit Guidelines: The purpose of a Multi -Family Development Permit is to enhance existing neighbourhoods with compatible housing styles that meet diverse needs and minimize potential conflicts on neighbouring land uses. Application for Development Permits will be assessed against the following guidelines: ■ New development into established areas should respect private spaces and incorporate local neighborhood elements in building form, height, architectural features and massing. The proposed development is buffered from Burnett Street on the west and the backyards of some single family houses on the north by the dedicated park area around Roslyn Creek. On the east is the conservation area. On the south is the internal road which is the main access to the proposed 19 town houses. Respect for private spaces of the existing surrounding development is achieved through these buffers. This low -density development proposes building materials like metal shingle roofing, cedar wall shingles, and a combination of vinyl siding plus cultured stone for the facades. The proposed sloping roof forms match well with the existing surrounding residential area form. ■ Transitional development should be used to bridge areas of low and high densities, through means such as stepped building heights, or low rise ground oriented housing located to the periphery of a higher density developments. Due to natural slope of the property, the 19 units (seven 3 bedroom and twelve 2 bedroom units) have been designed with the driveway traversing across the slope, virtually parallel to the east property line. The intent of this is to enable the use of foundation walls of the upper units as retaining walls for the higher portions of the site, allowing natural topography to dictate the form of the units themselves, with three -storey elevations evolving on the facades of the "uphill units" and two storey facades on the "downhill units". All the units have been designed with stepped massing on the lower facades to reduce visual impact of units facing the road. ■ Large scale development should be clustered and given architectural separation to foster a sense of community and improve visual attractiveness. Buildings have been designed with a maximum of four units in any one building in order to limit the number of internal (less desirable) unit types and to limit the number of shared walls. This cuts the monotonous streetscape, makes the units more livable and also provides some common activity areas in between the blocks of buildings (Appendix B). ■ Pedestrian circulation should be encouraged with attractive streetscapes attained through landscaping, architectural details, appropriate lighting and by directing parking underground where possible or away from public view through screened parking structures or surface parking located to the rear of the property. The two parking spaces per unit for residents are attached to the individual townhouses in the basement, designed taking advantage of the contours. Visitor parking spaces are distributed between the lower and upper level units near the common usable area. Pedestrian circulation has been encouraged by proposing a walking trail from the common usable area connecting it to the main access in to the development. This trail runs along the boundary of the dedicated park area on the west (behind units Al to A7, Appendix B). -3- Zoning Bylaw: Council has given third reading to the rezoning application in May 2007. The applicant and his team of consultants have been working towards satisfying the conditions of final reading which is anticipated to be on the November 13th Council agenda. The proposed RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) is intended for low to medium density townhouses, two family and multi family residential buildings. The maximum gross density allowed in this zone is 0.6 times the net lot area. The applicant has proposed a density of 0. 59. The usable open space required in this zone is 675.0 m2 and the applicant has proposed 708.18 m2, marked as "Play Area" in the Site Plan (Appendix B). This play area is located overlooking the dedicated park area and some of the lower level units and away from the Burnett Street. The required common activity area of 95 m2 is proposed in between the group of four units. Parking Bylaw Requirements: As per Maple Ridge Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw # 4350-1990, a minimum of 2.2 parking spaces per unit (including visitor parking ) are required for this zone, which totals to 41.8 required spaces. The applicant has proposed 47.0 spaces. All the 19 units have a two car garage in the basement and the visitors parking is proposed at grade in suitable locations (Appendix B). Creek Setback Requirements: A 15.0 m. setback is required from the top of the bank of Roslyn Creek, established by a registered surveyor. The applicant is proposing the area be dedicated as "Park" and re -vegetated along Burnett Street. The applicant's environmental planner from Scott Resource Services Inc. and the District's Environment Planner have reviewed the above and arrived at a consensus for the proposed works. An Enhancement and Protection Agreement along with a refundable security will be acquired as part of the Water course Development Permit, details of which will be covered under a separate report for Council approval. Advisory Design Panel: On April 101h 2007, the Advisory Design Panel reviewed this proposal and supports the general concept of the proposal with the following comments: ■ Redesign of rear and side yard elevations to add character and improve the elevations facing the riparian area and the end elevations; ® Provide a soil and maintenance plan for riparian area (for review by staff); ■ Reduce repetition at the streetscape by considering adding landscape treatment in front of garage and adding character of garage entries; ■ Provide confirmation that flooding and heavy rain issues have been addressed particularly with drainage at the southwest corner of the site (first three units) (for review by staff); ■ Redesign the east property line fence detail (type of fence and the height); and ■ Provision of more private outdoor space (consider patios, especially on the east side of the development). The applicant has made the necessary changes and has submitted revised drawings. The Storm Water Management Plan, Erosion Sediment Control Plan, Planting Plan and the required security ($56,560.25 as per the estimate given by the Landscape Architect) along with an "Enhancement & Q Protection Agreement" for a 5-year maintenance of the re -vegetated riparian area takes care of the other comments mentioned above. d) Intergovernmental Issues: The proposed development application did go through Maple Ridge's Environmental Review Committee (ERC) process with a final meeting on June 22, 2005 for this proposed development with the District of Maple Ridge and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. At this time they received the support of both agencies. Since this date, the applicant and the environmental consultant have also met with staff to update them on how they have incorporated the DFO's and District's recommendations into their project. The applicant has received approval from the Ministry of Environment to complete the required grading works around Roslyn Creek for its enhancement and relocation within the fisheries window. e) Environmental Implications: The Water Course Development Permit will address all the environmental requirements along with a bonding for re -vegetation of the riparian areas around Roslyn Creek. The applicant has submitted Storm Water Management Plan, Erosion Sediment Control Plan, Planting Plan and the required security along with an "Enhancement & Protection Agreement" for a five year maintenance period of the riparian area. The District's Environmental Planner and the applicant's Environmental Planner have reviewed and support the enhancement strategy for Roslyn Creek. f) Financial Implications: A security deposit equal to 2.5% of the total construction cost which works out to be $ 91,727.00 as a required condition of the Development Permit will be paid by the applicant. In addition to this, there will be 10 trees added to the municipal street tree inventory on completion of this project. Costs associated with maintaining these trees will need to be included in a subsequent operating budget. g) Alternatives: Not approving this proposal would result in Roslyn Creek remaining in a degraded and un-protected state. In addition, the existing property contains older homes that could become concerns for the District and the near -by residents. Council has already given third reading to the bylaw rezoning this site from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RM-1 (Townhouse Residential). Under Section 919.1 of the Local Government Act and Section 8.1 of the Official Community Plan the property has been designated a Development Permit Area with special requirements for Multi -Family Residential Development. Council approval is required for the Multi -Family Residential Development Permit Area as presented in this report prior to a Building Permit being issued. -5- CONCLUSION: This 19 unit townhouse development is designed to blend in as much as possible with the existing topography and promises enhancement of Roslyn Creek by its relocation, Park dedication and re - vegetation along Burnett Street. The form and character of the units comply with the Multi -Family Development Permit Guidelines as described above. It is recommended that DP/022/07 be approved. '1\ I f" �.

Site rehabilitation and enhancement works within the riparian area on this site include removal of invasive species and replanting with native planting with a maintenance period of five years. Compensation works by the applicant will include the relocation and enhancement of Roslyn Creek. plus re -vegetation and dedication of the Riparian Area around it which is a 15.0 m setback from the top of the bank on both sides. The subject site is "L" shaped and its proximity to environmentally sensitive areas (Roslyn Creek & the second growth trees like Cedars) created some challenges which will be resolved by dedicating 2310.3 m2 of the site as "Park" and by relocating Roslyn Creek. As required under the Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area Guidelines, a permit must be approved by Council and the required environmental security deposited with the District prior to any on -site works being undertaken within 50 meters of the top of bank of the watercourse. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal DP/082/06 respecting property located at 11384 and 11410 Burnett Street.

The applicant intends to re -locate, enhance and dedicate a portion of the Roslyn Creek. Roslyn Creek is currently in a degraded state and will benefit environmentally from the proposed enhancement works. A Watercourse Protection Development Permit application has been made in support of a development plan for a rezoning application (RZ/082/06) to rezone the above noted property to RM- 1(Townhouse Residential) to allow the construction of a 19 Townhouse units (Appendix A). c) Environmental Implications: The site has a watercourse (Roslyn Creek) identified on Schedule "C" of the Official Community Plan and is included in the Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area that was established for the preservation, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and riparian areas. A Development Permit is required for all development and subdivision activity or building permits within 50 meters of the top -of -bank of all watercourse and wetlands as shown on Schedule "C"-Natural Features Map. -2- Roslyn Creek runs in the north -south direction on the east -side of the subject site, part of which also runs through the subject site. The part that runs through the western sector, from south of Telosky Avenue to Burnett Street further south of the subject site is presently in a degraded state. The applicant is proposing as compensation works the removal of invasive species, re -vegetation of the conservation areas, a five year maintenance program agreement along with re -location, enhancement and dedication of a portion of the Roslyn Creek. An Enhancement and Protection Agreement has been signed between the applicant and the District for these works. In accordance with Council Policy for Performance Security for Environmental Protection to ensure that the Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area Guidelines are met, a refundable security deposit of $ 56,560.25 has been paid to the District. d) Planning Analysis: The Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area Guidelines may be varied with supporting documentation from a qualified professional at the discretion of Council. WATERCOURSE PROTECTION DEVELOPMENT PERMIT GUIDELINES: A. Watercourse Protection Area Establishment: 1. Watercourse protection areas are to be established in accordance with their habitat value and the potential impacts proposed by adjacent development. The District of Maple Ridge, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and the Ministry of Environment, Lands and Parks have endorsed the proposed watercourse protection boundaries as shown on the District's Streamside Setback Map. Setbacks from Roslyn Creek have been established in conjunction with the District's Streamside Setback Map. 2. The watercourse protection areas are to be dedicated where possible into public ownership for conservation purposes. The watercourse protection area will be dedicated as Park as a condition of zoning. 3. The boundaries of the watercourse protection areas are to be physically located on the ground by a B.C. Land Surveyor prior to site disturbance. A BCLS has located the watercourse protection area on the ground. 4. Temporary barrier fencing will be installed adjacent to watercourse protection areas prior to any construction activity and should be replaced with permanent post and rail fence upon development completion. A temporary barrier fence has been installed adjacent to the watercourse protection area. This will be replaced with a permanent post and rail fence upon completion of the development. -3- 5. All lots must provide the required minimum lot dimensions as set out in the Zoning Bylaw exclusive of the watercourse protection boundaries. The development meets the required minimum lot dimensions as required in the Zoning Bylaw. B. Erosion Control: 6. All work is to be undertaken and completed in such a manner as to prevent the release of sediment to any ravine, watercourse or storm sewer. An erosion and sediment control plan that involves implementation prior to land clearing and site preparation and the careful timing of construction is to be provided in accordance with the requirements of the District's Watercourse Protection Bylaw 6410 - 2006. The developer's Erosion and Sediment Control Plan) is in accordance with the requirements of the Maple Ridge Watercourse Protection Bylaw No. 6410-2006; and In support of watercourse protection, a signed letter from the engineer of record has been submitted with assurances that the storm water management plan for the site will meet the DFO Urban Storm water standards for water velocity, volume, and water quality. 7. Temporary fencing should be erected to prevent any encroachment or disturbance into the watercourse protection area prior to any clearing or construction on the site. This is a requirement of the Watercourse Protection Bylaw and a Watercourse Protection DP site plan has been submitted demonstrating compliance with these requirements 8. Cutting and filling adjacent to watercourse protection areas is to be kept to a minimum incorporating appropriate structural fill material and blending graded areas with natural slope, as supported by the Hillside Policies of the OCP. A grading plan has been prepared and submitted to the District in support of the development. The timing of the cutting and filling is confined to within the Fisheries window and outside critical bird nesting periods. 9. The District may require environmental impact studies, enhancement works, and monitoring in support of development proposed to be located within a Watercourse Protection Area. Supporting documentation, technical studies, and recommendations with respect to impacts of the proposed development may include the following: a. A geotechnical slope stability and erosion control report; b. A flood protection report; C. A groundwater impact assessment report; d. Wildlife habitat assessment report; e. Vegetation impact assessment report; and f. A detailed trail plan. -4- In support of the above, the following reports were required and have been received: ® Geotechnical Report addressing suitability of the proposed development on site ® Storm Water Management Plan, ® Erosion and Sediment Control Plan; ® Proposed lot grading plan; ® Arborist Report. C. Vegetation Management: 10. Natural vegetation is to be retained wherever possible to ensure minimum disruptions to the environment and to protect against slope failure. Land clearing adjacent to the watercourse protection areas is to be restricted to a phased construction schedule. The conservation area has been protected through Park dedication. A fence will be installed along the property line to define the clearing limitations. An Arborist Report with recommendations for retention of trees has been submitted for the Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area. 11. Habitat restoration landscaping of all bare or sparse riparian areas within the Watercourse protection area may be required. Vegetation species should be native of the area and be selected for erosion control and fish and wildlife habitat values. A significant amount of vegetation will be protected within the watercourse protection area which is dedicated as Park. A cost estimate and enhancement plans for watercourse improvement adjacent to Roslyn creeks have been received by the District, and are attached. A performance security of $ 56,560.25 for environmental protection has been received. 12. Storm water outflows to the stream or leave area should have water quality and erosion control features so as to minimize their impacts on fish habitat and in compliance with the Districts storm water management plans. The Environmental Monitor has provided confirmation in writing that there is no Habitat Alteration Disturbance and Destruction (HADD) authorization required from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) for the site. The developer shall provide copies of all necessary approvals (and supporting information) from senior agencies for all new storm water outfalls located within setback areas. A letter of assurance from the engineer of record has been received stating that the storm water management plan meets DFO storm water management standards for volume, velocity, and water quality as required by the Watercourse Protection Bylaw. In addition, the engineer of record must demonstrate compliance with current -5- D. Monitoring: 13. The implementation and maintenance of environmental mitigation controls or measures approved by the District are to be monitored by a qualified environmental monitor. Environmental monitoring will be a key element of the development of this site. Scott Resource Services Inc. will be the environmental monitors for the project and will ensure performance meets with the standards established by the Watercourse Protection Bylaw. Monitoring will occur daily during construction in rainfall events, and weekly at all other times during the construction period to ensure compliance with the permit. A record of all monitoring data shall be made available to the District upon request. The Environmental Monitor has been provided with written authority to modify and/or halt any construction activity necessary to ensure compliance with Maple Ridge Watercourse Protection Bylaw No. 6410-2006. The erosion and sediment control works (approved by the engineer of record and the environmental monitor), shall be inspected, maintained and operated by the property owner and/or contractor performing the construction work set out in the Erosion and Sediment Control Plan until -a Certificate of Acceptance has been issued by Director of Development Engineering or an Occupancy Permit has been issued by the Building Department. Staff has reviewed the guidelines established for the Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area Guidelines and feel that these have been satisfied by the applicant. Performance Security: 1. In support of the restoration works required in or around Roslyn Creek the amount of security that will be required as a condition of issuance of the Water Course Development Permit is $56,560.25 as per the Cost Estimate provided by Rory Defoe who is the Landscape Architect of record. e) Interdepartmental Implications: Parks Department The Parks Department requires that the park area be cleaned up, rehabilitated and re -vegetated prior to the land being dedicated as Park. M f) Financial Implications: A refundable security totaling $56,560.25, required for restoration and enhancement related works as noted above has been paid by the applicant. CONCLUSION: Considering the nature of the project and its proximity to environmentally sensitive areas, the proposed compensation works such as clean up, removal of invasive species and re -vegetation within the conservation areas plus the re -location, enhancement and dedication of a portion of the Roslyn Creek will not only be aesthetically pleasing but also a great improvement for the natural surrounding and local habitat. The applicant has provided the information as set out in the Council Policy for Environmental Protection. It is recommended that DP/082/06 be approved.

This application is subject to the Development Permit Area Guidelines for Multi -Family development as well as the Regional Town Centre Development Permit Area Guidelines (Port Haney) to regulate the form and character of the development. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal DP/051/07 respecting properties located at 117 Avenue & 11749 223 Street subject to registration of a: i) Section 219 Restrictive Covenant for the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Green Building Rating System components that will be included on the final project design plans. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owner: Legal Description: OCP: Existing: Proposed: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Vincent Donegan Allaire Properties (Solo) Inc. Lots: 42 & 43, D.L.: 398, Block: 5, Plan: 155 Commercial Commercial C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) Surrounding Uses: North: South: East: West: Use: Zone: Designation Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Site Area: Access: Servicing: Corresponding Applications b) Project Description: Commercial CD-2-85 (Comprehensive Development), CS-2 (Gasoline Service Bar), C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) Commercial School, Single Family Residential C-3 (Town Centre Commercial), RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Commercial Commercial C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) Commercial Commercial C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) Commercial Single Family Residential, Vacant 4 storey apartment building 1622.6 m2 North Avenue & 117 Avenue Full Urban None This multi -family residential development is proposed over two existing parcels fronting North Avenue. The consolidated site proposes to accommodate 37 units on four levels. The 2,913 m2 condominium building will have a mix of one bedroom, one bedroom & den, and two bedroom units. Units on the main floor will have private access to/from the street however their main entrance will be through the public corridor in the building. The site is located just south of the Lougheed Highway on a corner bordered by three streets; North Avenue to the north, 223rd Street to the east and 117th Avenue to the south. The area is surrounded by a variety of land uses; commercial to the north and east, commercial and multi -family to the west and institutional and single family residential to the south. The building form and massing has been designed to complement the existing building to the west on North Avenue. The most notable characteristics of the site is that it slopes from a high at the northwest corner to a low on the southeast. The difference between the two points is approximately 5 meters. The applicant is proposing a building design that takes into consideration the sloping site. There is no surface parking for this development, all spaces including visitor, are located underground below the structure. Vehicle access to the underground structure is off 117 Avenue. The cladding materials proposed for the exterior of the building include vinyl siding throughout the main building walls with board and batten and vinyl shake accents. Vinyl framed windows and sliding doors have been accented with wood trim. -2- c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: These properties are subject to the guidelines applicable to Section 8.7 Multi -Family Development Permit Area Guidelines of the Official Community Plan that aim to regulate the form and character of multi -family residential developments. This development respects the key guideline concepts as outlined in this section. 1. New development into established areas should respect private spaces, and incorporate local neighbourhood elements in building form, height, architectural features and massing. Private landscaped outdoor space is provided for each of the ground floor residential units. The building setback from North Avenue and the form and massing are similar to the apartment residential development to the west. 2. Transitional development should be used to bridge areas of low and high densities, through means such as stepped building heights, or low rise ground oriented housing located to the periphery of a higher density developments. This development is located on a property that slopes from North Avenue down to the south and east at 117 Avenue. The development has been designed to integrate into the surrounding neighbourhood in both form and character. Bounded by a six storey apartment building to the west and primarily one storey buildings to the south and east, the proposal would act as a transition between the two. The applicant is proposing significant terraced and sloping landscaping on the southeast elevation as a transition to older single family and commercial development. The building height is not stepped back. The intent of this requirement is to encourage some articulation of the building massing instead of a box -style design. However, this requirement may prohibit the ability of the developer to build enough units and could contribute to possible future water penetration concerns. As there is no vehicular parking at street level for this development, both the ground -oriented units and main condo structure are designed to be pedestrian oriented. Each main floor unit has an individual pedestrian walkway linked to the street. The ground floor apartment units also have individual patios surrounded by a generous amount of landscaping for increased privacy. 3. Large scale developments should be clustered and given architectural separation to foster a sense of community, and improve visual attractiveness. This is not a large scale development. 4. Pedestrian circulation should be encouraged with attractive streetscapes attained through landscaping, architectural details, appropriate lighting and by directing parking underground where possible or away from public view through screened parking structures or surface parking located to the rear of the property. -3- An inviting landscaped streetscape is proposed with a large main entrance trellis and direct pedestrian access from the street for each of the ground floor units. Resident and visitor parking are accessed from the rear lane. All parking for this development is located underground away from public view. In order to accommodate the underground parking structure, a retaining wall is required to support the raised lot. This wall will be tiered, landscaped and will have a trellis treatment to mitigate the visual impact for the surrounding neighbours. Additionally, multiple perimeter trees have been located between the retaining wall and the exposed perimeter of the underground parking structure. These properties are also subject to the Regional Town Centre Development Permit Area Guidelines (Port Haney) applicable to Section 8.11 of the Official Community Plan that aim to regulate the form and character of development within the Regional Town Centre. The purpose of these guidelines is "to direct development in the Downtown to enhance business opportunities that contribute to community identity while meeting the needs of those who work, shop and live in the area". The Regional Town Centre Development Permit Area Guidelines are more specific than those for multi- family residential and address many aspects of development. While the development meets most of the guidelines, the following are two that require specific comment: A. Building Design, Massing and Siting 1. The form and treatment of the new buildings should reflect the desired small lot/small block pattern of development in the area by incorporating appropriate architectural styles, roof forms, building articulation, fagade modulation, architectural features, fenestration patterns, building elements and proportions. Exterior finishes should be wood, brick, natural stone or other material of warm appearance. Substantial areas of concrete should be avoided. Expanses of solid wall or glass are unacceptable. The building has been designed to specifically complement the fairly new development to the west of the proposed site and is similar to the architectural style and treatment used for other multi -family developments in the area. Vinyl siding was selected to make the project affordable however, the vertical application of this material will resemble wood shakes and the combination of horizontal and vertical application of this material will provide texture and visual interest. The paint colours selected provide a natural and classic look while still providing enough contrast to delineate between forms. The impact of the concrete wall at the rear of the building is minimized with the addition of a trellis and stepped landscaping. 2. Buildings should retain a minimum two storey fapade on the main frontage and be stepped back for additional storeys to encourage a human scale to the streetscape. The proposed building does not step back after the second storey. In discussion with planning staff and the Advisory Design Panel committee members it was determined that the proposed building height and massing is consistent with the six storey residential building to the west of the proposed site and a human scale will be added to the streetscape in other ways such as by the use of vertical elements to break up the horizontal mass of the building, the use of different materials, colours and interesting design detail at the ground level, private access to ground level units, and creation of landscape boundaries with fencing and planting. As a result, the intention of this guideline has been accomplished. d) Maple Ridge Town Centre Concept Plan The development site is within the Regional Town Centre which is in the Smart Growth on the Ground area. The project architect has submitted a LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) green building checklist for the proposed development. Even though this development is not registering for LEED certification, it is designed with sustainable objectives. The proposed project scores indicate that the project will meet at least 17 credits that include: water efficient landscaping, diverting construction waste from the landfill, using regionally extracted and manufactured materials, and indoor environmental quality measures (LEED checklist attached as Appendix E). e) Advisory Design Panel: The proposed project was reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel on September 11, 2007 and was given general support by the group but recommended that revisions to the proposal be submitted to Planning staff to address the following: a) Variation in colour and material b) Submission of a sustainability statement and checklist c) Treatment to the parkade entry d) Clarification of landscape boulevard on 117th Avenue In response, the project plans were revised as follows: ® The colour of the horizontal vinyl siding was revised (a lighter colour chosen) to create a greater contrast and add more visual interest. ® A LEED checklist was submitted. ® A trellis has been added to the parkade entry to hide the concrete wall. ® The sidewalk and boulevard along 117 Avenue was designed to the same standard as the residential building to the west of the proposed development site. f) Environmental Implications: The site is not impacted by watercourses. The applicant will be required to complete an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan Checklist as a condition of Building Permit. g) Financial Implications: A refundable security in the amount of 2.5% of the total construction costs will be required with this Development Permit. Based on an estimated construction value of $3.2 million the security will be $80,000. -5- There will be 8 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: Under Section 919.1 of the Local Government Act and Section 8.1 of the Official Community Plan the property has been designated a Development Permit Area with special requirements for multi- family residential and Regional Town Centre development. Council approval is required for these Development Permit Areas as presented in this report prior to a Building Permit being issued. CONCLUSION: As the proposed development conforms to the C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) zone and complies with the guidelines of the Multi -Family and the Regional Town Centre (Port Haney) Development Permit Areas, it is recommended that DP/051/07 be given favourable consideration.

A Development Permit is required for all development and subdivision activity or building permits within 50 meters of the top -of -bank of all watercourse and wetlands as shown on Schedule C - Natural Features Map. Security may be posted in accordance with Council Policy for Performance Security for Environmental Protection to ensure that the Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area Guidelines are met. d) Planning Analysis: The Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area Guidelines may be varied with supporting documentation from a qualified professional at the discretion of Council. -2- WATERCOURSE PROTECTION DEVELOPMENT PERMIT GUIDELINES: A. Watercourse Protection Area Establishment: 1. Watercourse protection areas are to be established in accordance with their habitat value and the potential impacts proposed by adjacent development. The District of Maple Ridge, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and the Ministry of Environment, Lands and Parks have endorsed the proposed watercourse protection boundaries as shown on the District's Streamside Setback Map. Setbacks from Gully Creek have been established in conjunction with the District's Streamside Setback Map. 2. The watercourse protection areas are to be dedicated where possible into public ownership for conservation purposes. The watercourse protection area has been dedicated as Park. 3. The boundaries of the watercourse protection areas are to be physically located on the ground by a B.C. Land Surveyor prior to site disturbance. A BCLS has located the watercourse protection area on the ground. 4. Temporary barrier fencing will be installed adjacent to watercourse protection areas prior to any construction activity and should be replaced with permanent post and rail fence upon development completion. A temporary barrier fence has been installed adjacent to the watercourse protection area. This will be replaced with a permanent post and rail fence upon completion of the development. 5. All lots must provide the required minimum lot dimensions as set out in the Zoning Bylaw exclusive of the watercourse protection boundaries. All lots meet the required minimum lot dimensions as noted. B. Erosion Control: 6. All work is to be undertaken and completed in such a manner as to prevent the release of sediment to any ravine, watercourse or storm sewer. An erosion and sediment control plan that involves implementation prior to land clearing and site preparation and the careful timing of construction is to be provided in accordance with the requirements of the District's Watercourse Protection Bylaw 6410 - 2006. The developer/applicant has provided assurances Watercourse Protection Bylaw that their Erosion and accordance with the requirements of the Maple Ridge No. 6410-2006, and through Schedule A of the Sediment Control Plan is in Watercourse Protection Bylaw -3- In support of watercourse protection, a signed letter from the engineer of record has been submitted with assurances that the stormwater management plan for the site will meet the DFO Urban Stormwater standards for water velocity, volume, and water quality. 7. Temporary fencing should be erected to prevent any encroachment or disturbance into the watercourse protection area prior to any clearing or construction on the site. This is a requirement of the Watercourse Protection Bylaw and a Watercourse Protection DP site plan has been submitted demonstrating compliance with these requirements. 8. Cutting and filling adjacent to watercourse protection areas is to be kept to a minimum incorporating appropriate structural fill material and blending graded areas with natural slope, as supported by the Hillside Policies of the OCP. The timing of the cutting and filling is confined to respect the Fisheries window and bird nesting periods. 9. The District may require environmental impact studies, enhancement works, and monitoring in support of development proposed to be located within a Watercourse Protection Area. Supporting documentation, technical studies, and recommendations with respect to impacts of the proposed development may include the following: a. A geotechnical slope stability report; b. A flood protection report; C. An erosion and sediment control plan; d. A stormwater management concept plan; e. A groundwater impact assessment report; f. Wildlife habitat assessment report; g. Vegetation enhancement and restoration plan; and h. A detailed trail plan. In support of the above, the following report was required and has been received, a Vegetation Enhancement and Restoration Plan. The Stormwater Management Concept Plan and an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan are requirements of the Subdivision and submission will be necessary at that time. C. Vegetation Management: 10. Natural vegetation is to be retained wherever possible to ensure minimum disruptions to the environment and to protect against slope failure. Land clearing adjacent to the watercourse protection areas is to be restricted to a phased construction schedule. The conservation area has been protected through Park dedication and/or a conservation covenant. A fence will be installed along the property line to define the clearing limitations. An Arborist report with recommendations for retention of significant trees has been submitted for the Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area. -4- 11. Habitat restoration landscaping of all bare or sparse riparian areas within the watercourse protection area may be required. Vegetation species should be native of the area and be selected for erosion control and fish and wildlife habitat values. A significant amount of vegetation will be protected within the watercourse protection area which is dedicated as park. A cost estimate, security bond, and enhancement plans for water course improvement adjacent to Gully Creek has been received by the District. 12. Stormwater outflows to the stream or leave area should have water quality and erosion control features so as to minimize their impacts on fish habitat and in compliance with the Districts stormwater management plans. The engineer of record must demonstrate compliance with current Provincial and GVRD site source controls where possible. Calculations demonstrating compliance with the three tier system may be required. D. Monitoring: 13. The implementation and maintenance of environmental mitigative controls or measures approved by the District are to be monitored by a qualified environmental monitor. Environmental monitoring will be a key element of the development of this site. Damax Consultants will be the environmental monitors for the project and will ensure performance meets with the standards established by the Watercourse Protection Bylaw. Monitoring will occur daily during construction in rainfall events, and weekly at all other times during the construction period to ensure compliance with the permit. A record of all monitoring data shall be made available to the District upon request. The Environmental Monitor has been provided with written authority to modify and/or halt any construction activity necessary to ensure compliance with Maple Ridge Watercourse Protection Bylaw No. 6410-2006. The erosion and sediment control works approved by the engineer of record and the environmental monitor, shall be inspected, maintained and operated by the property owner and/or contractor performing the construction work set out in the Erosion and Sediment Control Plan until a Certificate of Acceptance has been issued by Director of Development Engineering or an Occupancy Permit has been issued by the Building Department. Staff has reviewed the guidelines established for the Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area Guidelines and feel that these have been satisfied by the applicant. Performance Security: 1. In support of the restoration works required in or around Gully Creek the amount of security that will be required is $11,450.00 as per the Cost Estimate provided from Phoenix Environmental Services. 2. Performance security may be required for environmental protection purposes. -5- d) Interdepartmental Implications: Department of Fisheries and Oceans The setbacks for this watercourse have been dedicated as Parkland in conjunction with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and the District as a condition of rezoning these lands. e) Citizen/Customer Implications: Until Council has authorized a development permit the applicant will be unable to begin site preparation for subdivision SD/087/05. f) Financial Implications: A refundable security totaling $11,450.00 will be required for restoration and enhancement related works as noted above.

This development is subject to the Regional Town Centre (Port Haney) and Commercial Development Permit guidelines. Two development variances are being sought by the applicant, one from the Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510-1985 to vary the distance from the front lot line above the second storey in the C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) zone from the 7.5 metres required to the 0.7 metres proposed. The second variance is being sought from the Maple Ridge Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No. 4350-1990 to vary the number of required parking stalls from 21 to 13 as proposed. RECOMMENDATION: 1. That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal DVP/002/05 respecting property located at 22381 Callaghan Avenue; 2. That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal DP/076/06; 3. That the following condition be met prior to authorization of the Variance Permit: i) A Restrictive Covenant restricting the use must be registered at The Land Titles Office DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: W S Bissky Architect & Urban Design Inc. Wayne Bissky Owner: Ridge Meadows Community Living Foundation Legal Description: Lot: 2, D.L.: 398, Plan: 16464 OCP designation: Commercial • Zoning: Surrounding Uses North: Use: Zone: Designation: South: Use: Zone: Designation: East: Use: Zone: Designation: West: Use: Zone: Designation: Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Access: b) Project Description: C-3 (Town Centre Commercial), RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Residential RS-1&C-3 Commercial Residential C-3 Commercial Commercial C-3 Commercial Residential P-1 & H-1 Park Vacant Three storey special use building vehicle access from rear lane, pedestrian access from Callaghan Ave. This is an application for a development permit and a development variance permit to facilitate construction of a three storey special use building at 22381 Callaghan Avenue. The proposed building is approximately 885m2 in gross floor area and provides for 13 accessory off street parking spaces and one loading zone. Vehicular access to the site is from the rear lane which is proposed to be improved for the width of the property. Pedestrian access will also be provided from the front of the building along Callaghan Avenue. The building contains nine residential units, offices for support staff and some open living areas. Two variances are proposed to facilitate the project. One variance is to reduce the required number of accessory off-street parking spaces, the second variance is to reduce the front yard setback to the third floor along Callaghan Avenue. The building is to be occupied by the Ridge Meadows Association for Community Living (RMACL). The RMACL is a non-profit organization that serves people with developmental disabilities. Services are based on helping children and adults with disabilities integrate into the community. The children's services program serves children up to three years of age with special developmental needs. It helps parents make informed decisions regarding activities for their child and is administered through home visits, parent groups, education, community contact and other resources. Residential services provide housing for people with varying developmental disabilities. The support includes semi-independent homes for people that are able to manage their day to day activities with minimal assistance from caregivers. W Community day programs operated from the facility will allow individuals with developmental disabilities to access training and work experience opportunities with assistance from profit sharing small businesses in the community. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan The property is subject to the Regional Town Centre Development Permit Area Guidelines (Port Haney) applicable to Section 8.11 of the Official Community Plan that aims to regulate the form and character of development within the Regional Town Centre. The purpose of these guidelines is "to direct development in the Downtown to enhance business opportunities that contribute to community identity while meeting the needs of those who work, shop and live in the area". The Regional Town Centre Development Permit Area Guidelines are more detailed than the Commercial guidelines and address many aspects of development. This development meets the Port Haney Area guidelines as outlined in section 8.11.3 of the Official Community Plan. The lands are designated Commercial on Schedule B to the Official Community Plan (OCP) and zoned primarily C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) as such, the development is also applicable to the Commercial Development Permit guidelines upon which applications for Development Permits will be assessed against. The key concepts for OCP Section 8.5.1 Commercial Development Permit Area are as follows: 1. Avoid conflicts with adjacent uses through sound attenuation, appropriate lighting, landscaping, traffic calming and the transition of building massing to fit with adjacent development. Sound attenuation will be provided in accordance with the current building code. Landscaping has been provided at the front and side of the building supplemented by two street trees and at the rear of the building to soften the parking and loading areas. Also, to ease the traffic congestion on Callaghan, all vehicular access to the building is at the rear from the lane. 2. Encourage a pedestrian scale through providing outdoor amenities, minimizing the visual impact of parking areas, creating landmarks and visual interest along street fronts. The parking is provided to the rear of the building and the architectural character of the development reflects the heritage style desired for new buildings in this area. Street front pedestrian access is provided along Callaghan Avenue. The building is located close to the front property line thereby creating a strong street fapade. Landscaping is provided along the front lot line and in the rear yard to soften the parking and loading areas. 3. Promote sustainable development with multimodal transportation circulation, and low impact building design. This is a small scale development, however, both entries are designed to be accessible and a lift has been provided to access the floors above the first floor. There is also bike storage available in the storage room allocated on the main floor and a bike rack is available at the rear of the building. -3- 4. Respect the need for private areas in mixed use development and adjacent residential a reas. A park directly to the west of the project provides for outdoor public amenity space which can be enjoyed by residents, visitors, and employees of the facility. 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. Detail and articulation has been provided along the street fapade through the fenestration , entry treatment and canopies. The project attempts to apply the traditional character to the building in its attemptto reference the historical facades that were original to this area. This building maintains the look of a "store -front" with the hardi-board siding painted in a heritage colour pallet. The applicants have also provided a LEEDS checklist as it lies within the area covered by the Town Centre Concept Plan. The project received 26 points which gives it "certified" rating. A clause will be added to the development permit requiring registration of a green building covenant prior to the issuance of a building permit for this project. The project is therefore consistent with OCP policy and Development Permit Area guidelines. d) Zoning Bylaw and Development Variances The project would comply with the Zoning and Parking and Loading Bylaws with the exception of two areas each. A development variance permit application has been therefore been made for these two bylaw variances. Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510-1985 The applicants are requesting a variance to the front yard setback for the third storey from the required minimum 7.5 metres to 0.7 metres. Section 703, Town Centre Commercial: C-3 (Town Centre Commercial), 7(a): No building or structure shall be sited less than 6.0 m from a rear lot line except that:: a) where the building is used for apartment use above the second storey, the distance from the front and rear lot lines above the second storey shall be not less than 7.5m This zone was meant to allow for higher buildings and therefore anticipated a two storey podium with higher floors stepping back when containing residential use. In this case the building is just three stories and therefore it seems impractical to require the setback for the one floor. The applicant has broken up the third floor with roof forms and dormer windows. M The second variance relates to the Maple Ridge Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No. 4350 - 1990. The applicants contend that due to the unique nature of their operation and their clientele that they will not require full amount of parking spaces required under the Bylaw. In support of the proposed variance the applicants have provided a Parking Study by Ward Consulting Group. The report indicates that based on the current bylaw 21 spaces would be required for this use assuming that common areas were assessed as office space. If not then only 14 spaces would be required. In either case the requirement would exceed the 13 spaces being supplied. The report goes on to analyze the actual parking demand based on the specifics of the particular use and staff intended to occupy the space. Based on this review the report concludes that 13 spaces would be the actual demand and 13 spaces including two wheelchair accessible spaces are proposed. This development variance permit application can be supported subject to a restrictive covenant being registered on title which would restrict the use to that which is proposed. This would ensure that if any other use is proposed in the future Council would be able to review the parking impact of such change. The restrictive covenant has been prepared and is in a registerable form. Registration will occur if the variance permit is approved by Council. This variance request is coming in advance of the Town Centre Parking Strategy wherein we are reviewing opportunities for a reduction of parking spaces within the Town Centre. e) Advisory Design Panel: The Advisory Design Panel (ADP) reviewed this project at their meeting of May 08, 2007. At that time the ADP commented as follows: The Advisory Design Panel has reviewed the proposal and supports the general concept but recommends revisions to the proposal to be submitted to planning staff (to be distributed to advisory design panel members) to address the following: a) Reconsider the mural and west wall treatment b) Approach parks for the possibility of planting more trees and failing that other treatment rather then blank wall c) Reconsider accessible stall locations d) Consider a heavier canopy tree on both street and rear side area e) Reconsider dormers and lower the sills on 3rd floors window The applicant has provided a revised submission responding to the ADP comments in the following ways: a) The west mural was replaced with a "fenestration" pattern mimicking a textured block treatment. b) The Parks Department was contacted and they were not supportive of additional planning within the park. c) The accessible stalls have been relocated to be closer to the north entry of the building. -5- d) Alternative trees were considered, however, the landscape architects informed that the trees as specified are already quite large. e) The south elevation has been revised to conform to the suggestions by the design panel. f) Financial Implications: A refundable security in the amount of 2.5% of the total construction costs will be required with this Development Permit. Based on an estimated construction value of $1,400,000 the security will be $35,000.00 CONCLUSION: It is recommended that Council authorize issuance of Development Permit DP/002/05 and authorize the notice to be sent on Development Variance Permit VP/002/05.

Residents have filed a valid formal petition and Council direction is sought regarding preparation of a bylaw to establish a Local Area Service (LAS). RECOMMENDATIONS: THAT staff be authorized to prepare a bylaw to establish a Local Area Service to provide sanitary sewer service to 42 lots in Academy Park; and further THAT the capital program be amended to provide for the construction of the sanitary sewer service. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: In September 2006, the District received a preliminary petition signed by 95% of the residents of Academy Park. This petition requested the following information: • the probable cost of the service • how the costs would be apportioned amongst the benefiting property owners • options for payment, and • other information necessary for the residents to decide whether or not to participate. Over the next several months, issues regarding health concerns from the Fraser Health Authority, the Fraser Sewerage Area (FSA) boundary and the extent of lands to be included in the formal petition were discussed. An information meeting was held on March 21, 2007 and staff were requested to provide: • information regarding the process to extend the FSA boundary to include all lands in Academy Park • a determination of health hazards in the area due to failing on -site sewage disposal systems • an estimate of the costs for the sanitary sewer extension, and • consideration of support for a grant application to the MRIF (Municipal Rural Infrastructure Fund) to assist in funding the sewer extension. HOU On April 23, 2007, Council authorized staff to prepare an infrastructure grant application to assist in the extension of a sanitary sewer to Academy Park. The application was forwarded to the Ministry of Community Services but was not considered by the Ministry for the 2007 funding year. After the March 21, 2007 meeting, staff investigated the process to extend the FSA boundary and concluded that the process is complicated and time-consuming. The process and timing were discussed with area residents, and, as a result, the District received a preliminary petition on May 1, 2007 from those residents of Academy Park that are within the FSA. Residents on Ansell Street that are not within the FSA were not included in this petition. In response to this preliminary petition, a cost estimate to serve 42 parcels in Academy Park (shown on the attached sketch 1) and a formal petition were prepared and circulated to residents. On July 31, 2007, the formal petition was returned and the Corporate Officer has determined that the formal petition is sufficient and valid. A total of 83.3% of the number of properties with a value of 83.5% of total land & improvements signed the petition. b) Strategic Alignment: The Corporate Strategic Plan includes Financial Management and Environment as strategic focus areas. The financial management focus area encourages the continuation of a user pay philosophy and the provision of high quality municipal services to our citizens and customers in a cost effective and efficient manner. This project meets these objectives. The environment focus area encourages the identification and protection of environmental features (such as watercourses) and areas that require special recognition and management. By eliminating the possibility of future potential disposal system failures in the Academy Park area, this project satisfies this objective. c) Citizen/Customer Implications: Costs of the sewer service have been estimated at $1,409,200, to be shared equally among the 42 existing homes (the per property cost amounts to $33,552). When the final costs are determined, the owners will be offered the option to either pay the actual 'commuted' cost or have the cost placed on the tax roll and amortized over a period of 15 years at the interest rate set by the MFA and the Finance Department, with the eligibility of paying off anytime during the term without incurring a penalty. This service will provide a sanitary sewer system and a connection to the system at the property line. In order to complete and commission the service, owners will then need to install, at their cost, a connection from the residence to the sanitary sewer connection at the property line. The system will be designed to accommodate a future extension that would include the remaining 17 parcels on Ansell Street that are currently not within the FSA. Of the 42 parcels involved in this LAS, approximately 50% are 0.8 hectares in area. Since the OCP designation for Academy Park is Estate Suburban Residential (minimum parcel size of 0.4 hectares) it is anticipated that some of the parcels within the LAS area may apply for rezoning and subdivision in the future. The parcel charge is based on one connection per parcel and does not reflect any future subdivision potential. d) Interdepartmental Implications: When the construction of the service is completed, the Finance Department will confirm the actual costs, impose the final actual costs as a levy and place the notation on the tax roll of the benefiting property owner. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: Borrowing authority is required to make available sufficient funds to cover the costs of this LAS through the capital program. f) Policy Implications: The 42 properties identified in this LAS are within the FSA and are designated Estate Suburban Residential in the Official Community Plan. The OCP states that urban level residential densities will not be supported in areas designated Estate Suburban Residential but adds that Maple Ridge will support single detached and two family residential housing in Estate Suburban Residential areas. The Estate Suburban Residential land use designation is characterised generally by 0.4 hectare lots. Areas designated Estate Suburban Residential are located outside the Urban Area Boundary, but are within the Fraser Sewerage Area, or on property where sewer services have already been connected. Properties within the Fraser Sewerage Area that are not connected to servicing require municipal approval prior to connecting to sewer and this LAS application is seeking such an approval. The residents retained a professional engineer to provide preliminary comments regarding the existing sewage disposal systems in Academy Park. He advises as follows: "The first phase of Academy Park was developed in 1973 utilizing individual septic disposal fields. Over the years some of these fields have failed resulting in raw sewage running off into the roadside ditches with the resultant odor and potential health related problems. The reasons for these failures are likely due to undersized fields, over use, poor soils and high water table especially during the winter rainy months. These fields are getting older and may be prone to more failures in the coming years. The present cost of septic field repairs in Academy Park range between $15,000 to $35,000, depending on the individual site and normally utilize a pressure mound system that partially sits above the native grades. I understand that previous cost estimates for extension of the sanitary sewer system to Academy Park is in the same range as these repair costs and would provide certainty and peace of mind to the area residents in that they no would no longer have to worry about maintaining a septic system or of the potential related health problems that may occur with a failure " Although Fraser Health Authority has not ordered repairs to disposal fields in this area, we agree with the consultant that future disposal field failures are inevitable and that repair or replacement may be costly. g) Alternatives: The following alternatives are available to address the problem of failing sewage disposal systems: 1. On -site repair to a sewage disposal system at an estimated cost of $30,000. The performance of the repaired field is predicated on the number of occupants in a household and the fluctuation of ground -water and there is no guarantee on how long the repair will last. 2. Pump -out and trucking of sewage at an estimated cost of $200 per pump -out every three to four weeks. Both of these alternatives are considered inferior to the recommended extension of the sanitary system. CONCLUSION: An extension to the sanitary sewer system has been requested by the residents of Academy Park through a formal LAS petition. Approval to prepare a bylaw to establish an LAS to provide a sanitary sewer service to 42 lots in Academy Park is recommended.

A request has been received from the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch requesting that Council consider an addition to the licensed area within the facility. The application submitted by the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Community Arts .Council requests an increase to the licensed area within the facility. The application requests that the Art Gallery and upper conference room be included in the licensed area. The hours of operation will be Monday to Sunday 12 noon till 1:00 a.m. One of the considerations used by the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch in reviewing the application is a resolution from the local government. The local government is asked to consider the application in terms of the potential community impacts and forward a resolution in support of or against the issuance of a license. Local government may also submit a resolution indicating they are not interested in providing comment. RECOMMENDATION(S): Whereas the District of Maple Ridge Council considered a staff report regarding an application for an addition to the licensed area for the liquor primary license held by The Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Arts Council for The Act — Maple Ridge Arts Centre and Theatre located at 11944 Haney Place; and Whereas Council did not request further public input on this proposal based on the fact that in 2004 letters were sent to over 260 surrounding businesses and residents requesting continent on the issuance of a liquor primary license for The Act and no responses were received and since the facility has been licensed no negative activities have been reported concerning the service of liquor ; and Whereas the R.C.M.P. and Bylaw Enforcement Department are satisfied the types of events held at the facility should not generate any negative community impacts in terms of noise generation, parking congestion or unruly behavior; and Whereas the maximum person capacity of 152 persons for the Art Gallery and 40 persons for the conference room with a closing time of 1:00 a.m. is acceptable; THEREFOR BE IT RESOLVED THAT the District of Maple Ridge Council supports the addition to the licensed area for the liquor primary license at The Act — Maple Ridge Arts Centre and Theatre. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: The Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Community Arts Council has applied to the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch for an addition to the licensed area for the liquor primary license located at The Act — Maple Ridge Art Centre and Theatre. The requested addition includes licensing of the Art Gallery and conference room with a total capacity of 152 persons for the Art Gallery and 40 persons for the conference room. The license will allow the serving of alcohol in these areas between the hours of 12 noon to 1 a.m. Monday to Sunday. The Act has had a liquor primary license since 2004 when the upper and lower lobby areas and multi purpose room were licensed for the service of alcohol. The addition to the licensed area will allow for the consumption of alcohol in both the Art Gallery and conference rooms. It is anticipated that consumption of alcohol in these areas will typically occur during special events. The LCLB has requested a resolution from Council commenting on the application in terms of a number of criteria established to evaluate the community impacts which may occur as a result of the addition to the licensed area. The following information provides comment on each of the established criteria. a) Community Input In 2004 a letter was sent to 260 owners/residents in the immediate area requesting comments on the issuance of a liquor primary license for The Act. Staff did not receive any responses from the mail out and during the three years the facility has been licensed there have been no reports of any negative activities attributed to the current liquor primary license. Based on these factors, no additional public input has been gathered concerning the addition to the current licensed area. b) Proximity of licensed establishment to other social, recreational or public facilities Given the nature of the events where alcohol will be served, it is not anticipated that the addition to the licensed area will conflict with the operation of nearby recreational, social and public facilities. c) Traffic, noise, parking and zoning The applicant has met the requirements of the zoning and off street parking bylaws. Both the RCMP and the Bylaw Enforcement Department are of the opinion that the addition to the licensed area of this facility should have minimal impact on any neighbourhood or community concerns in terms of noise generation, unruly behaviour or parking congestion. d) Person capacity and hours of liquor service The application received indicates a requested capacity of 152 persons for the Art Gallery and 40 persons for the conference room. The Building and Fire Departments have reviewed the request and support a maximum person capacity of 152 for the Art Gallery and 40 persons for the conference room. The hours of operation with a closing of 1:00 a.m. Monday through Sunday are acceptable. e) Population and population trends The population for the community of approximately 75,000 with an annual growth rate of 2 to 3 % supports the operation of a licensed performing arts theatre. f) Socio-economic information The contravention rates for surrounding liquor primary establishments are less than the provincial average and do not indicate a problem with an over proliferation of licensed establishments in the community. b) Alternatives: Council may submit a resolution to the LCLB not in support of the application or a resolution indicating Council is not interested in commenting on the application. CONCLUSIONS: Given the nature of the application and the types of events to be held in the facility, staff are recommending that Council support the application.

Bylaw for Highway Closure & Dedication Removal for Undeveloped Road off the West Side of the 13900 Block of 232 Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: During the re -zoning process for the Anderson Creek development (RZ/005/06 - 13935 & 14041 232 St.), the developer agreed to dedicate as park an 892.7 square metre developable portion of the property to allow for public access to a rock outcropping. This area was outside any environmental set -back zone. At the Closed Council meeting of October 15, 2007, Council agreed to exchange approximately 304.8 square metres of an undeveloped portion of road at the northeast corner of the development (shown as Parcel A on the attached drawing) for that dedicated area. The developer wishes to incorporate it into a residential development on their property. The remaining 465.5 square metre portion of the undeveloped road (shown as Parcel B on the attached drawing) will be dedicated as park. In order to transfer Parcel A and dedicate Parcel B, Council would first have to adopt the attached bylaw closing the highway and removing the road dedication. At that point, the District would take ownership, in title, and could dispose of the property as allowed under the Community Charter. RECOMMENDATION(S): That Maple Ridge Highway Closure and Dedication Removal By-law No. 6473 - 2007 be read a first, second and third time. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: The attached advisory from the Government of British Columbia, titled "Highway Closure and Removal of Highway Dedication", describes the process as required under the Community Charter. Upon approval of the above recommendation, staff will provide public notice of the highway closure and road dedication removal in the local newspaper, in accordance with Section 94 of the Community Charter. Persons affected by the bylaw will be given an opportunity to submit written responses to the Corporate Officer for Council consideration before final reading. b) Interdepartmental Implications: The Property Management Committee and the Planning and Engineering Departments support the highway closure and dedication removal i Prepared by: Ron Riach Property & Risk Manager A roved by.

The Community Charter gives municipalities ownership of most municipal highways (exceptions are listed in s. 35(2)). Municipalities also have authority to regulate and prohibit in relation to highways, (subject to provincial legislation) and the authority to close highways. Since municipalities now own local highways (subject to the provincial right of resumption), provisions have been established if a municipality wants to use a portion of the highway for a different purpose, or if it wants to dispose of it. All of these provisions can be found in Part 3, Division 5 of the Community Charter. What is required 1. Highway Closure and Removal of Highway Dedication Municipalities can close a highway and remove its highway dedication by bylaw. These actions can be done either in one bylaw, or by separate bylaws. The bylaw(s) must include a reference plan or explanatory plan outlining the portion of road that will be affected. If done separately, the bylaws can be passed concurrently, or at different times. Prior to adopting a highway closure bylaw, a municipality must: • provide public notice in accordance with section 94; • provide an opportunity for persons who are affected by the bylaw to make representations to council; • deliver notice of its intention to close a highway to operators of utilities whose works council considers will be affected by the closure. The operator of a utility affected by a closure may require the municipality to provide reasonable accommodation of the utility's works. If the municipality and utility are unable to reach an agreement the matter may -be settled by arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Act; • ensure that a proposed highway closure does not completely deprive an owner of access to his/her property unless the municipality receives consent from the property owner or compensates the owner and provides alternative access; • refer any highway closure bylaws to the Minister of Transportation (through the local Ministry of Transportation District office) for approval where the proposed highway closure is within 800 metres of an arterial highway (note that specified District staff may grant such approval on behalf of the Minister of Transportation). Prior to adopting a highway dedication removal bylaw, a municipality must: • provide public notice in accordance with section 94; • provide an opportunity for persons who are affected by the bylaw to make representations to council; http://www.cserv.gov.be.callgdlgov_structure/community_charter/services_regulatorylhighway_closure.htm 29/10/2007 LGD: Highway Closure and Removal of Highway Dedication Page 2 of 5 LGMA a obtain consent of the owner of property if the highway in MFA question is part of a subdivision, where the highway has not uBCM been developed and the owner of the land who created the subdivision continues to own all the parcels. Circumstances in which these conditions apply are rare. 2. Raising Title Once the highway closure bylaw and removal of highway dedication bylaw are adopted, and the removal of highway dedication bylaw is filed in the appropriate Land Title Office, the property ceases to be a highway, its dedication as a highway is cancelled and title to the property will be registered in the name of the municipality, in accordance with section 120 of the Land Title Act. In order for title to be raised in the name of the municipality, the Land Title Office requires that municipalities submit the bylaw and plan package to the registrar, together with an application in Form 17, a Property Transfer Tax form and the prescribed fee. As raising title and disposing of the land may occur in close conjunction, note also the Land Title Office filing requirements discussed under Disposing of Property. 3. Disposing of Property Once title is raised, municipalities who want to dispose of the property must do so in accordance with the property disposal rules set out in Part 3, Division 3 of the Community Charter. If a municipality plans to dispose of property for a closed highway that removes public access to a body of water, it must either provide alternative public access to the same body of water, or set aside money in a reserve fund to acquire property that will provide public access to the same body of water. The Community Charter provides a provincial right to resume property that was once a highway for the purpose of: an arterial highway; other transportation purposes; or a park, conservancy, recreation area, ecological reserve or other area established under the Park Act, the Ecological Reserve Act, the Protected Areas of British Columbia Act or the Environment and Land Use Act. The right of resumption can be removed by order of the Minister of Transportation. Alternatively, the Minister of Transportation can by regulation set out the circumstances in which the right is automatically removed. TD-P- The Minister of Transportation has adopted a regulation (BC Rea 245/2004- (12 KB)) that provides that the right of resumption is automatically removed if the corporate officer of the relevant municipality files with the Land Title Office a statement certifying the following 3 facts: the municipality has, by bylaw, closed the highway and removed its dedication; the closed highway is not adjacent to a park, conservancy, recreation area, ecological reserve or other area established under the Park Act, the Ecological Reserve Act, the Protected Areas of British Columbia Act or the Environment and Land Use Act; and the closed highway land is to be disposed of for either of the following two purposes: o in exchange for land necessary for the purpose of improving, widening, straightening, relocating or diverting a highway, or o to one or more adjacent land owners for the purpose of consolidating it with the landowners' existing adjacent parcel or parcels of land. The certifying statement must be satisfactory to the Land Title Office. Typically, this means a written statement from the municipality that: http://www.cserv.gov.be.ca/lgd/gov structure/community_charter/services_regulatory/highway_closure.htm 29/10/2007 LGD: Highway Closure and Removal of Highway Dedication Page 3 of 5 identifies the closed highway land; states the 3 conditions in the regulation; certifies that the land at issue satisfies those conditions and therefore the right of resumption is to be removed; is signed by the corporate officer; and is accompanied by the prescribed Land Title Office fee. Under this regulation, if the closed highway land satisfies the regulation - in other words, if the corporate officer of the municipality can certify that the transaction meets the circumstances set out in the regulation - then the municipality does not need a specific order removing the right of resumption. Instead, the right of resumption is automatically removed on the date that the certifying statement is filed in the Land Title Office. TO P_ As noted, the municipality is responsible for satisfying itself that the 3 conditions in the regulation are met. This means the municipality is responsible for confirming the boundaries of the road in question and, in relation to the second condition (parks/conservancy), is responsible for confirming those boundaries relative to the boundaries of provincial parks/conservancy. To assist in determining the location of a road relative to provincial parks/conservancy, a municipality can obtain a list of provincial parks/protected areas in its region from the appropriate regional office of the Ministry of Environment: Cariboo (250) 398-4530 Kootenay (250) 354-6333 Lower Mainland (604) 582-5200 Okanagan (250)490-8200 Omineca (250) 614-9911 Peace (250) 787-3295 Skeena (250)847-7260 Thompson (250) 371-6200 Vancouver Island (250) 751-3100 Only if the municipality has confirmed that the road in question is in fact adjacent to a provincial park/conservancy would the municipality need to contact the Ministry of Environment regional planner to identify if there are any issues with the proposed disposal of the closed road. In that case, the matter would not be within the circumstances set out in the regulation. For any situations not covered by the regulation, a municipality will still need to seek a possible order from the Minister of Transportation to remove the right of resumption. In that case, municipalities should contact: Kirk Rockerbie Manager, Transportation Policy Branch Ministry of Transportation Phone: (250) 953-3068 E-mail: Kirk.Rockerbie@gov.bc.ca Top When to consider Municipal ownership and regulation of highways ensures that municipalities can manage their highways in a way that meets the needs of their communities. As well, it provides control over a land resource. Councils may want to consider closing a highway and removing the highway dedication as part of a major community redevelopment, as a rationalization of their road network system, or as a way to remove unused highways from their land bank and generate http://www.cserv.gov.bc.callgdlgov_structurelcommunity_charter/services_regulatorylhighway_closure.htm 29/10/2007 LGD: Highway Closure and Removal of Highway Dedication revenue or create a park. Page 4 of 5 What to consider Councils may want to consider the following, particularly before undertaking a highway closure, where the tangible impact on the community and its residents is felt: In what circumstances does council want to close a highway, remove the highway dedication and dispose of the property? Does council deal with requests on an ad hoc basis or in the context of a policy for closing of roads and disposing of property? Does council have a narrow policy (e.g. disposal only for consolidation with adjacent parcels) or broad policy (e.g. part of P3) for dealing with property disposal of former highways? Councils have broad authority to dispose of property in any way that best meets then needs of their communities (see Property Disposal). In many cases councils will want to provide the property of a former highway to the adjacent parcel owner so the parcels can be consolidated. In other circumstances councils may consider a policy of disposing highways as part of larger community redevelopments or for community purposes such as parks, squares or affordable housing. Councils will want to consider that any property made available is done so through a consistent process and provides equal opportunity for individuals to purchase. In those circumstances where a council is only making the land available to one purchaser, they must be aware that if the land is being provided for purchase at less than fair market value this is a form of assistance and for business this can only be done in the context of a partnering agreement. ® Does council want to close a highway and remove highway dedication as one process or as separate processes? Most councils undertake highway closures because they intend to dispose of the property. If this is the case, it is appropriate to deal with the closure and removal of highway dedication together. However, if a council believes there may be the possibility of reusing the closed highway in the future for highway purposes, it should consider just closing the highway. If the intended closure may only be short term, council might want to use its temporary highway closure authority under section 38, rather than the permanent closure process. • What kind of notice should council give? Where councils pass concurrent highway closure and removal of highway dedication bylaws they can combine the notice and opportunities to make representations requirements. Section 94 sets out the requirements for public notice. Notice must be published in a newspaper and posted in the public notice posting places. If there is likely to be considerable local concern about closing a highway, the municipality may want to consider providing additional notice to residents or a public information session. Municipalities must provide an opportunity for the public to make representations to council. The form this representation takes is at the discretion of the municipality as the legislation is silent on this matter. Whatever form is selected should be clearly advertised in notice provided to the community. Councils may want to develop a policy around what form of representation is appropriate for their community. In developing such a policy, councils will want to consider the principles of htti)://vAvw.cser-v.gov.bc.ca/l.izd/gov structure/community charter/services regulatory/highway_closure.htm 29/10/2007 LGD: Highway Closure and Removal of Highway Dedication Page 5 of 5 fairness and equity. Every citizen and interest group should be given the same opportunity to make representations to council on a particular matter or issue. However, there is flexibility to provide different types of opportunities for representation for the different items that are set out in the Community Charter (e.g. for highway closure versus for a business regulation bylaw). • Where a municipality closes off access to a body of water, what is considered public access that is of at least equal benefit to the public? The legislation is silent on what constitutes property that provides public access to the same body of water that is of at least equal benefit to the public. Council has discretion to define what this is. The Land Title Act mandates that subdivision of water lots provides public access at regular intervals. Decisions on closure of access to water are best made in the context of the official community plan which establishes objectives and policies for parks and open space. The closure provision provides the option for consolidating access points to create the best opportunities for the public. Because citizens value the ability to access bodies of water, councils should first consider carefully the decision to close access. In situations like this councils may want to consider providing additional notice of the plan as there may be a general impact on the community for this type of closure. It may be difficult to find alternative access that is acceptable to citizens who are most likely to be impacted by a new public access location or that is affordable for a municipality, as it will be responsible for maintaining the access. • What procedures does council follow when undertaking a highway exchange? Highway exchanges are most commonly used where municipalities undertake a community development that requires reconfiguration of the highway network system. Developers provide land for a new highway dedication in exchange for a property elsewhere that has had the highway dedication removed. Municipalities undertaking highway exchanges will need to undertake the process required to pass the necessary bylaws that close and remove the highway dedication and dispose of the property. Property owners dedicating their land as highway will need to do so through subdivision. Timing of these processes may be an important consideration.

Sincerely, Lyn Scott Taylor MACAI Representative 2010 LEGACIES NOW Measuring Up Accessibility • Inclusion Frequently Asked Questions What is Measuring Up? Measuring Up is: • A collaborative process that engages people with various disabilities and leaders from a range of sectors in the community in ongoing assessment and improvements to local accessibility and inclusion; and • A guide to assist your community to assess, prioritize and take action on accessibility and inclusion issues. What is the Measuring Up Accessibility and Inclusion Fund for? The Measuring Up Accessibility and Inclusion Fund (Measuring Up Fund) will assist local community groups, particularly in the disability sector, to work with municipal, business and other community leaders to create disability -friendly - that is, accessible and inclusive - communities. The Fund is intended to help B.C. communities implement Measuring Up and become places where people with disabilities can fully participate and contribute, by achieving the following objectives: • Improve access to information • Reduce barriers to participation • Create jobs and economic opportunities • Increase opportunities for participation in community life Our community has already implemented Measuring Up. How will this fund help us? Creating an accessible and inclusive community is an on -going process. The Measuring Up Fund is designed to enable communities to access funds to assist them in meeting their objectives, regardless of where they are in the Measuring Up process. For the purposes of this Fund, the Measuring Up process is divided into three stages: 1. Initial start-up 2. Plan development and implementation 3. Project(s) Who can apply? Municipalities or registered non-profit organizations that have the endorsement of their municipality are eligible to receive funds. Non-profit organizations must have their applications signed by a municipal councillor to indicate municipal endorsement. Applications must identify a lead person or group and demonstrate that initial steps have been taken to ensure the Measuring Up initiative will involve broad partnerships within the community. Only one application per community will be accepted. If 2010 Legacies Now receives multiple applications from different agencies in the same community, it will encourage all applicants to partner on a collaborative submission. What is the deadline for applications? August 31, 2007 January 31, 2008 June 30, 2008 December 31, 2008 Measuring Up Accessibility and Inclusion Fund — Frequently Asked Questions 2010 LEGACIES NOW. If our application is approved once, can we apply a second time? Yes. However, a community can receive for funding only once for each of the three stages. There is also a maximum amount available per community ($25,000). 2010 Legacies Now can also assist a community in identifying other available funding options. If our application is not approved the first time, can we re -apply? Yes. 2010 Legacies Now will work with unsuccessful applicants to improve their application. Communities will have up to 60 days to resubmit their application for consideration in the same granting period. Alternately, these communities can reapply in the next granting period. What amount of funding can our community apply for and for what purposes? The Ministry of Employment and Income Assistance has provided 2010 Legacies Now with a total of $2,000,000 to help B.C. communities become accessible and inclusive using the Measuring Up guide and process. Grants to communities will range in size up to $25,000, based on population size and the community plan submitted to 2010 LegaciesNow. What can these funds be used for? The Measuring Up Fund is divided into three stages, each with its own focus. Funding can be used in the following ways: STAGE I: Initial Start -Up — establishing a Measuring Up committee, securing municipal support, and appointing a lead for the process (It is uncommon for communities to receive Stage I funding). 2. STAGE Il: Plan Development and Implementation — conducting local inventory, developing Measuring Up plan, conducting assessment, setting targets and priorities, and identifying projects 3. STAGE III: Project(s) - initiating projects identified as priorities in the Measuring Up assessment (Stage II). Communities are encouraged to develop their plans using in -kind resources, which will leave them with greater funds for the assessment and project work. 2010 Legacies Now can connect communities with expert consultants to assist in any stage of the Measuring Up process. Costs associated with these experts should be included into your budget request. What should our application include? Funding applications should explain how the applicant will obtain and organize the necessary information, and enlist support to prepare a plan responding to steps 1-6 in Starting Up, found atwww.201OLegaciesNow.com/measuring up. Completed applications should indicate the following: • Purpose in implementing Measuring Up • Specific objectives of the process • Individuals and organizations involved in leading and supporting the process • Approach to improving how people with disabilities can be active participants in the Measuring Up process and the community • Timeline for implementing Measuring Up Budget, including in -kind contributions Nature and extent of dialogue envisioned and groups involved Measuring Up Accessibility and Inclusion Fund — Frequently Asked Questions 2010 LEGACIES NOW. Methods and techniques for assessing baseline conditions, prioritizing projects and measuring progress • Any independent evaluation process planned • Additional information as the applicant sees fit What is the 10x10 Challenge? The 10x10 Employment Challenge was issued to all B.C. mayors at the 2006 Union of B.C. Municipalities convention. Mayors were asked to register for this challenge (www.eia.gov.bc.ca/epwd/10by10/) and work to increase the number of people with disabilities employed in their community by 10% by 2010. The 10x10 Challenge helps municipalities set targets and engage the whole community in increasing employment opportunities for people with disabilities. Increasing employment opportunities for people with disabilities should be an aspect of your Measuring Up implementation and project activities. Will applications that represent several regional, district or provincial communities or non-profit agencies be considered? Yes. The Measuring Up process brings community stakeholders together and applicants will benefit from early collaborations with others. 2010 Legacies Now will not, however, provide funds for overlapping activities. Should this arise, 2010 Legacies Now will contact the applicants and encourage conversation about who is best suited to lead the plans. What can I do to get people interested and involved in using Measuring Up in my community? Grow your ideas by gathering a small group (3-7 people) of community leaders to discuss how best to influence and act on the steps identified in Starting Up (www.20101egaciesnow.com/measuring up/). Include people who are aware of accessibility and inclusion issues and who can influence the municipality and business sectors. Municipal councillors, people with disabilities, leaders of disability organizations, and Spirit of BC community committee chairs could be useful at this first planning meeting. Contact information for local Spirit of BC community committees is at www.SpiritofBC.com. I've heard some Measuring Up communities have asked their municipalities to pass motions committing to accessibility. Why would we do this? What should such a motion include? A community resolution or motion is an essential component of the Measuring Up process as it demonstrates your community's commitment to accessibility and inclusion. You do not need to pass a formal council motion to be eligible for the Measuring Up Fund, however, you must demonstrate local council support and endorsement. Passing a formal council motion is part of Stage I of the Measuring Up process. The motion should include the following: • The municipality agrees to become increasingly more accessible and inclusive using the Measuring Up guide and process • The municipality establishes a committee to lead the implementation of Measuring Up, or instruct an already existing committee to take on this role Additionally, 2010 Legacies Now encourages a third element for the motions: The community will register with and take up the 10x10 Employment Challenge Measuring Up Accessibility and Inclusion Fund — Frequently Asked Questions 3 2010 LEACIES NOW.. (www.eia.gov.bc.ca/epwd/10by10/) Please contact 2010 Legacies Now for examples of community motions (cmcewan(a,2010LegaciesNow.com). Do motions have to be passed before we apply for funds? No. However, applications must be signed by a councillor indicating a municipal commitment to becoming more accessible and inclusive. Applications should also include how you will ensure the motion is passed. 2010 Legacies Now will forward implementation and project funds once it receives a copy of motions passed. This should occur within two months of your application approval. Who can I contact for more information?

MEASURES UP TO CHALLENGE WITH $2-MILLION GRANT Kamloops, B.C. (April 12, 2007) — The Province is investing $2 million to support community projects aimed at increasing accessibility and inclusion for persons with disabilities. Employment and Income Assistance Minister Claude Richmond announced today. "British Columbians with disabilities want to become more active and independent in their communities and the government is committed to providing the right supports to meet this goal." said Richmond. "The establishment of the $2-million Measuring Up Accessibility and Inclusion Fund will encourage communities to do even more to increase the participation of people with disabilities." The Measuring Up Accessibility and Inclusion Fund, managed by 2010 Legacies Now. will provide approximately 70 grants of up to $25.000 in support of community projects that are aligned with the Measuring Up initiative and the 10 by 10 Challenge. "This fund will make a real difference in creating a more inclusive and supportive province." said Al Etmanski from 2010 Legacies Now's Accessibility and Inclusion program. "Together. Measuring Up and the 10 by 10 Challenge will provide more opportunities for persons with disabilities to actively participate and contribute to our communities." The Measuring Up initiative. led by 2010 Legacies Now, focuses on creating fully accessible public spaces and promoting employment and community involvement for people with disabilities. Similarly. the Province's 10 by 10 Challenge is targeted at increasing the employment of persons with disabilities in communities by 10 per cent by 2010. "Kamloops embraces the vision of a society that promotes and values the contributions of all its citizens." said Kamloops Mayor Terry Lake. "As a city fully committed to the goals of the Measuring Up Initiative and the 10 by 10 Challenge. I look forward to being one of the first communities to benefit from this fund." The introduction of the Measuring Up Accessibility and Inclusion Fund is an innovative part of the provincewide Disability Strategy. It is also part of the Province's $4-billion investment each year in disability programs to help fulfil government's goal of building the best system of support in Canada for persons with disabilities.
