COMMUNITY FORUM COMMUNITY FORUM The Community Forum provides the public with an opportunity to ask questions of Council on items that are of concern to them, with the exception of Public Hearing by-laws that have not yet reached conclusion. Council will not tolerate any derogatory remarks directed at Council or staff members. Each person will be permitted 2 minutes to speak or ask questions (a second opportunity is permitted if no one else is sitting in the chairs in front of the podium). Questions must be directed to the Chair of the meeting and not to the individual members of Council. The total time for this Forum is limited to 15 minutes. If a question cannot be answered, the speaker will be advised when and how a response will be given. Other opportunities are available to address Council including public hearings and delegations. The public may also make their views known to Council by writing or via email and by attending open houses, workshops and information meetings. Serving on an Advisory Committee is an excellent way to have a voice in the future of this community. For more information on these opportunities contact: Clerk's Department at 604-463-5221 or clerks@mapleridge.ca Mayor and Council at mayorandcouncil@mapleridge.ca Checked by: Date: �rlrah Col.umbIN District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: July 21, 2014 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2014-043-RZ FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W SUBJECT: First Reading - Site-specific Text Amendment Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7090-2014 13065 Katonien Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This application is for a site-specific text amendment to the M-2 (General Industrial) zone to permit an "Indoor Mountain and BMX biking" facility. The subject site (Appendix A) exists within the Kanaka Business Park, north of 128th Avenue. All the parcels in the vicinity, including the subject site, are zoned M-2 (General Industrial). The OCP designation for the subject site is "Suburban Residential" and the site is outside District's "Urban Area Boundary", so the proposed facility will not be subject to the "Industrial Development Permit Guidelines". The site-specific text amendment to the M-2 zone to permit an "Indoor Commercial Recreation" use at 13065 Katonien Street is supportable based on the following analysis: a. It aligns well with the draft "Commercial Industrial Strategy" recommendations and the OCP policies; b. The nature of the proposed use is not dependent on quick access to major transportation routes which makes the subject site suitable for it; c. The building size/form requirements for the proposed use fits well within the existing zone; and d. The subject site is well positioned for the proposed use (i.e. near the outdoor bike trails on Blue Mountain). To proceed further with this application additional information is required as outlined below. RECOMMENDATIONS: That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7090-2014 be given first reading; and That the applicant provide further information and details of the proposed building and on-site landscaping, prior to consideration of second reading. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owner: Matteo Signorelli Kanaka Business Park Development Ltd. 1101 Legal Description: Lot: 14, Section: 25, Township: 12, Plan: BCP42202; PID: 028-047-711 OCP: Existing: Proposed: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Surrounding Uses: Suburban Residential Suburban Residential M-2 (General Industrial) M-2 (General Industrial) North: Use: Industrial Zone: M-2 (General Industrial) Designation: Rural Resource and Suburban Residential South: Use: Industrial Zone: M-2 (General Industrial) Designation: Suburban Residential East: Use: Industrial and Katonian Street Zone: M-2 (General Industrial) Designation: Rural Resource and Suburban Residential West: Use: District owned vacant land Zone: M-2 (General Industrial) Designation: Rural Resource and Suburban Residential Existing Use of Property: Vacant Proposed Use of Property: Indoor Mountain and BMX biking facility Site Area: 0.573 Hectares (1.41 acres) Access: Katonian Street Servicing requirement: Rural Standard a) Subject Site and Proposal: The subject site (Appendix A) is located in the "Kanaka Business Park" at 13065 Katonien Street. The parent parcel has been zoned M-2 (General Industrial) for many years and formerly used as a gravel pit. In 2009 the site was subdivided into 51 one acre or larger lots all serviced with on-site septic facilities. The applicant is proposing an "Indoor Mountain and BMX Biking" facility on the site. This will trigger a site specific text amendment to the M-2 zone to add the "indoor commercial recreation use" for Lot 14, Plan BCP42202 (13064 Katonien Street). The Indoor Mountain and BMX Biking facility will be the first of its kind in the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley areas. Similar facilities exist in Seattle, Whistler and eastern Canada. Preliminary communication with the applicant indicates that the facility will have various components such as recreational areas, ramps, storage and office areas. The estimated total cost of the project could be from $600,000 to $800,000. Additional details of the facility will likely be provided by the applicant at second reading. -2- b) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The subject site is designated "Suburban Residential" on Schedule B of the Official Community Plan and designated "Rural" in the Regional Growth Strategy. Chapter 6, Employment, Section 6.1- Employment Generating Opportunities of the OCP, through Principal 17, states that: Maple Ridge views the promotion of economic development (jobs) as being very important to developing a balanced community- one that is not a dormitory suburb. Policy 6-2 of the OCP states that: Maple Ridge will support and facilitate opportunities for local job creation, and identify and promote local strengths to a global market. Policy 6-55 in Section 6.5 Additional Employment Generating Opportunities states: Maple Ridge will actively promote and market the outdoor resource theme by: a) supporting and strengthening businesses that cater to tourists; b) support businesses involved with outdoor recreational activities and physical fitness; c) facilitating growth in eco -tourism, cycling and equestrian industry; The proposed use aligns well with the above mentioned OCP policies and is anticipated to serve as a recreational and employment generating resource. This facility will likely attract visitors from the region and help promote Maple Ridge as a tourist destination. Kanaka Creek Industrial Park is regulated by a building scheme design covenant. Any new development in "the Park" must be reviewed and approved by the developer's design control professional prior to submitting a building permit. The registered Building and Landscape Design Guidelines for the Kanaka Business Park can be summarized as follows: i. To ensure careful design integration of all the elements in the park and to bring about high quality park development and site utilization; ii. To maintain standards to provide a clean, business image of the Park at all times in order to benefit the respective owners and tenants of the Park; and iii. To provide a consistent streetscape image and to screen less attractive elements (such as unsightly outside storage) associated with the buildings and site uses within the Park. Currently the applicant has not completed the building plans for the indoor facility that will eventually appear on the site. When completed the building, parking and landscaped area will conform to the above guidelines. Commercial and Industrial Strategy: In November 2012, Council received the draft "Commercial and Industrial Strategy" for input and discussion. The draft strategy identifies the subject property as "Northern Maple Ridge". The draft "Commercial and Industrial Strategy" provides a series of recommendations regarding employment opportunities in the community. -3- It should be recognized that although Maple Ridge has large amounts of industrial land supply, much of it is located in the north which is not currently of interest to most industrial developers or users. The Abernethy Connector with improve absorption of industrial land in the North, but the location will still likely be too far away for many region serving businesses. A further comment in the draft strategy states: Absorption in northern Maple Ridge will be slow, so the District must consider a range of scenarios if it is going to have marketable industrial lands available to meet demand. The District therefore needs to balance the retention of an industrial future for these properties while providing these owners of industrial land an opportunity for a reasonable return on their investment. A possible scenario in these northern industrial areas could be support for uses that are compatible with industrial uses, and structures that could be readily converted to industrial uses. The proposed use and structure could meet these objectives. In addition, the format of the Kanaka Business Park would minimize potential conflicts between uses by the physical separation it imposes through detached buildings and fee simple tenure. The subject site is strategically located near the outdoor bike trails on Blue Mountain and other recreational opportunities. Unlike other industrial operations, by nature of its operation, the proposed use is also not dependent on quick access to major transportation routes and likely will evolve into a significant tourism attraction in future. Council is still in the process of reviewing the "Commercial and Industrial Strategy" and its implications. However, based on the explanation above, it appears that this application is consistent with recommendations contained within the draft strategy and the OCP policies. The proposed site- specific text amendment to allow the proposed use at the subject site is found to be supportable. Zoning Bylaw: The applicant is proposing a site specific text amendment to the M-2 zone to permit "Indoor Commercial recreation" as a principal use to accommodate "Indoor Mountain and BMX biking" facility. The Zoning Bylaw defines an "Indoor Commercial Recreation" use as: Indoor Commercial Recreation means a use wholly enclosed within a building providing for members of the public to engage in recreational activities as participants rather than spectators. An "Indoor Mountain and BMX biking" facility aligns well with the definition stated above and the proposed use is compatible with the anticipated future industrial uses that will emerge in the future in the area. c) Interdepartmental Implications: In order to advance the current application, after First Reading, comments and input, will be sought from the various internal departments and external agencies listed below: a) Engineering Department; b) Operations Department; c) Fire Department; d) Building Department. -4- The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become necessary, as the application progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above. This application has not been forwarded to the Engineering Department for comments at this time; therefore, an evaluation of servicing requirements has not been undertaken. We anticipate that this evaluation will take place between First and Second Reading. CONCLUSION: The proposed "Indoor Mountain and BMX biking" facility is anticipated to be the first of its kind in the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley areas and it aligns well with the OCP policies and the draft "Commercial and Industrial Strategy" recommendations. The proposed site-specific text amendment to the M-2 zone to allow an Indoor Commercial Recreation use will permit the proposed use for an "Indoor Mountain and BMX biking" facility. It is recommended that Zone Amending Bylaw 7090- 2014 (Appendix B) be given first reading and the applicant provide further information, prior to considering second reading as outlined in this report.

As well, an Official Community Plan (OCP) amendment is required respecting building height in the Northview Precinct in the Town Centre Area Plan. The proposal is for a five (5) storey apartment building with approximately 75 units. To proceed further with this application additional information is required as outlined below. RECOMMENDATIONS: In respect of Section 879 of the Local Government Act, requirement for consultation during the development or amendment of an Official Community Plan, Council must consider whether consultation is required with specifically: i. The Board of the Regional District in which the area covered by the plan is located, in the case of a Municipal Official Community Plan; ii. The Board of any Regional District that is adjacent to the area covered by the plan; iii. The Council of any municipality that is adjacent to the area covered by the plan; iv. First Nations; v. School District Boards, greater boards and improvements district boards; and vi. The Provincial and Federal Governments and their agencies. and in that regard it is recommended that no additional consultation be required in respect of this matter beyond the early posting of the proposed Official Community Plan amendments on the District's website, together with an invitation to the public to comment, and; That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7092-2014 be given first reading; and That the applicant provide further information as described on Schedules A, C and D of the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 - 1999. 1102 DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owner: Legal Description: OCP: Existing: Proposed: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Surrounding Uses: North: South: East: West: Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Site Area: Access: Servicing requirement: Maclean Homes Brown Road Ltd.

(0.86 acres) 121 Avenue, Edge Street and lane parallel to 121 Avenue Urban Standard -2- b) Site Characteristics: The subject site consists of four (4) lots to be consolidated into a single property. It is a corner site (Edge Street and 121 Avenue) with lane access. Each lot has an existing dwelling with accessory buildings, which will be demolished before final approval of this application. The site is relatively flat with a cluster of mature trees along the lane toward Edge Street. The site is surrounded on three sides by urban lots with mostly single family dwellings. This area is in transition towards a multiple residential neighbourhood. To the southwest is "The Edge on Edge" apartment building, a project recently completed by the same developer. Across the street to the north are St. Patrick's Catholic Church and School. c) Project Description: The proposed use is for a five (5) storey, 75 -unit apartment building. There will be a healthy unit mix consisting of approximately 8 studio units, 48 one bedroom units and 19 two bedroom units. Parking consisting of 77 spaces plus 8 visitor spaces (85 in total) will be underground. This development will be similar in building bulk and density to the 77 unit condominium completed by this same applicant to the southwest at 12075 Edge Street (RZ/078/09), marketed as "The Edge on Edge." At this time, the current application has been assessed to determine its compliance with the Official Community Plan (OCP) and to provide a land use assessment only. Detailed review and comments will need to be made once full application packages have been received. A more detailed analysis and a further report will be required prior to Second Reading. Such assessment may impact proposed lot boundaries and yields, OCP designations and Bylaw particulars, and may require application for further development permits. d) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The development site is located within the Northview Precinct of the Town Centre Area Plan and is currently designated Medium and High -Rise Apartment. The proposed zone of RM -3 High Density Apartment Residential is permitted by the Zoning Matrix in the Town Centre Area Plan for the Medium and High -Rise Apartment designation. Therefore, the proposed zone aligns with the current OCP designation of the subject property. For building height, the following policy applies: Policy 3-23 All Medium & High -Rise Apartment developments should be a minimum of six (6) storeys and may reach over twenty (20) storeys. Policy 3-23 encourages buildings of six (6) storeys in height or greater in this specific designation. At five (5) storeys, this proposal does not meet this objective. However, in the broader context, buildings five (5) storeys in height are suitable in achieving densities for vibrancy in the Town Centre Area. -3- Furthermore, the RM -3 zone being sought for the subject site allows buildings to have five (5) or more storeys. Therefore, the following OCP amendments are supportable: • Height reduction: Reducing the minimum height stated in Policy 3-23 from six (6) to five (5) storeys for the Northview Precinct in the Town Centre Area. This change will not affect the ability for developing taller towers in this or other high density precincts for the Town Centre as envisioned by the OCP. The ability to have a range of building heights will help to attain an attractive urban design environment and skyline through a mixture of building bulk and heights. A friendly pedestrian environment can be successfully achieved by street oriented designs associated with both lower buildings and with the podium portion of higher buildings. • Consequential changes: To align form and character guidelines with the proposed height reduction, parts of Section 8.11 Town Centre Development Permit Area are proposed to be amended. These will include minor adjustments to height references in the guidelines for the Northview Precinct in which the subject site is located. The specific text changed will be identified and brought forward for Council consideration in a future rezoning second munity Plan and the Town Centre Area Plan in particular, also have other policies that apply to projects in the Town Centre Area. These include: accommodating a wide range of housing needs, including aging in place, adaptive housing techniques (SAFERhome Standards), etc.; integrating green infrastructure such as rainwater management and energy conservation; incorporating outdoor open and amenity spaces for resident recreation and placement of public art; and considering CEPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design). These and other applicable policies will be discussed with the applicant at later stages of review and approval. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the properties located at 12080 Edge Street, and 22554, 22566 and 22576 121 Avenue from RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) to RM -3 (High Density Apartment Residential) to permit the construction of a 75 -unit, five (5) storey apartment building. The Town Centre Zoning Matrix of the OCP permits two multi family residential zones in the Medium - and High -Rise Apartment designation. They are RM -6 (Regional Town Centre High Density Apartment Residential) and RM -3 (High Density Apartment Residential). The intent of the RM -3 zone is to encourage high rise development by adding density for each storey over 5 storeys. The zone starts with a base of 1.2 FSR and by adding storeys, a structure can achieve a maximum density of a 2.2 FSR. The maximum 1.2 FSR for five (5) storey apartment buildings is insufficient for the 1.8 FSR proposed for this project, but less then the maximum of 2.2 FSR. Therefore, a site specific zoning text amendment is recommended, allowing the intended maximum 1.8 FSR for this project in a five (5) storey form. This text amendment is supportable because the proposal aligns with the overall emerging neighbourhood envisioned in the OCP and because the development proposal will still attain an acceptable medium to high residential density. Any variations from the other requirements of the proposed zone will require a Development Variance Permit application. -4- Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.11 of the OCP, a Town Centre Development Permit application is required for all multi family residential, flexible mixed use and commercial development located in the Town Centre. Advisory Design Panel: A Town Centre Development Permit is required and the project must be reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel prior to second reading. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting is required for this application. Prior to second reading the applicant is required to host a Development Information Meeting (DIM) in accordance with Council Policy 6.20. e) Interdepartmental Implications: In order to advance the current application, after first reading, comments and input, will be sought from the various internal departments and external agencies listed below: a) Engineering Department; b) Operations Department; c) Fire Department; d) Licences, Permits and Bylaws Department; e) Parks Department; f) School District; and g) Utility companies. The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become necessary, as the application progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above. This application has not been forwarded to the Engineering Department for comments at this time; therefore, an evaluation of servicing requirements has not been undertaken. We anticipate that this evaluation will take place between first and second reading. f) Early and Ongoing Consultation: In respect of Section 879 of the Local Government Act for consultation during an Official Community Plan amendment, it is recommended that no additional consultation is required beyond the early posting of the proposed OCP amendments on the District's website, together with an invitation to the public to comment, and the installation of a development sign on the property. g) Development Applications: In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 - 1999 as amended: 1. A complete OCP Application (Schedule A); 2. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule C); and -5- 3. A Town Centre Development Permit Application (Schedule D). In addition, sufficient additional information is necessary to assess compliance of this project with applicable Official Community Plan and the Town Centre Area Plan policies such as housing, green infrastructure, public art and safety. The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the assessment of the proposal progresses. CONCLUSION: This proposed five (5) storey apartment building with 75 dwelling units is another significant multi family residential project within Town Centre Area. The development proposal is in compliance with the intent of the OCP; however, an amendment is necessary to reduce the minimum height requirement from six (6) to five (5) storeys in the OCP policies and development permit guidelines that will apply to this project. Therefore, it is recommended that Council grant first reading subject to additional information being provided and assessed prior to second reading.

The proposal is to rezone the subject properties (Appendix A) from RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) and RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential), RS -1b (One Family Urban -Medium Density Residential) and R-2 (Urban Residential District). The three properties under consideration are located in the Horse Hamlet of the Silver Valley Area Plan, and have a combination of three OCP designations (i.e. Low Density; Low -Medium Density; and Medium Density Residential), as identified in this report. The proposal meets the permitted maximum density in the Silver Valley Area Plan; however an OCP amendment is required to adjust the designation boundaries to achieve an efficient road pattern and the proposed lot layout (Appendix D). RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. That in accordance with Section 879 of the Local Government Act opportunity for early and on-going consultation has been provided by way of posting Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7088-2014 on the municipal website and requiring that the applicant host a Development Information Meeting, and Council considers it unnecessary to provide any further consultation opportunities, except by way of holding a Public Hearing on the bylaw; 2. That Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7088-2014 be considered in conjunction with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan; 3. That it be confirmed that Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No.7088- 2014 is consistent with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan; 1103 4. That Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7088-2014 be given first and second readings and be forwarded to Public Hearing; 5. That Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7053-2014 be given second reading and be forwarded to Public Hearing; and 6. That the following terms and conditions be met prior to Final Reading: i. Registration of a Rezoning Servicing Agreement as a Restrictive Covenant and receipt of the deposit of a security, as outlined in the Agreement; ii. Amendment to Official Community Plan Schedule "A", Chapter 10.3, Part VI, A - Silver Valley, Figure 2 - Land Use Plan, and Figure 3D - Horse Hamlet; iii. Road dedication as required; iv. Consolidation of the development site; v. Registration of a Geotechnical Report as a Restrictive Covenant at the Land Title Office which addresses the suitability of the site for the proposed development; vi. Removal of the existing buildings; vii. An Engineer's certification that adequate water quantity for domestic and fire protection purposes can be provided; viii. A disclosure statement must be submitted by a Professional Engineer advising whether there is any evidence of underground fuel storage tanks. If there is evidence, a site profile pursuant to the Waste Management Act must be provided in accordance with the regulations; and ix. Pursuant to the Contaminated Site Regulations of the Environmental Management Act, the property owner will provide a Site Profile for the subject lands.

The topography around the subject sites is fairly flat with a gradual slope down from the north-east to the south-west corner. The properties under consideration are in the Fraser Sewer Area. The portion of 128th Avenue, inside the Horse Hamlet, is currently identified as a local road. In future, the subject portion of 128th Avenue is anticipated to be an arterial road providing the main access to Golden Ears Provincial Park. All the standard off-site road and servicing upgrades abutting the development site will be required as a condition of final reading. To the north of subject sites are two parcels designated "Neighbourhood Park" which are both owned by the District of Maple Ridge. The timeline on the actual building of this neighbourhood park is unknown at this point. However, future and existing residents will be able to participate in the public consultation process conducted by the Parks and Leisure Services Department. The subject sites are not located in or near a known archeological resource according to Provincial or local records. The proposed subdivision sketch (Appendix D) shows a total of 34 single family lots serviced by a looping road. Of the proposed 34 lots; 14 are proposed to be rezoned to R-2 (Urban Residential District), 17 are proposed to be rezoned to RS -lb (One Family Urban -Medium Density Residential), and 3 are proposed to be rezoned to RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential). Access to the proposed subdivision is from Fern Crescent via a new 18.0 metre wide road right-of-way that can accommodate sidewalks and parking on both sides. Except for the three lots facing the southern dip of Fern Crescent, all the proposed lots will face a new looping municipal road right-of-way built and serviced to urban standards. A narrower 15.0 metre wide road right-of-way will also be built south of the "Neighbourhood Park" along the northern boundary of the subject site. The proposed road pattern could be replicated on the east of subject sites when they develop in the future. The proposed road pattern generally follows the Silver Valley, Horse Hamlet road plan with some minor changes to provide efficient access to surrounding lands. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan - Silver Valley Area Plan: The Horse Hamlet within the Silver Valley Area Plan is anticipated to contain a total of 240 dwelling units in a tightly compacted, neighbourhood scale residential area. In October 2013, Council gave third reading to a development proposal on Mill Street (north of subject sites) for 16 single family lots to be rezoned from RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) and RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to R-2 (Urban Residential District). Since the adoption of the Silver Valley Area Plan, this proposal is the second development application in the Horse Hamlet area. This will add up to a total of 50 units in the Horse Hamlet area, if final approval is granted. -4- The development proposal is subject to Silver Valley Area Plan policies and densities permitted within the Horse Hamlet. It is important to note that the subject sites are not impacted by any watercourses or steep slopes. The three subject properties (Appendix A), are a combination of Low Density Residential; Low -Medium Density Residential; and Medium Density Residential designations as shown in the table below: Policy 5.3.9 specifies maximum densities associated with the above mentioned OCP designations in terms of units per net hectare permitted, as stated below: (a) Medium to medium -low densities, ranging from 15 to 40 units per hectare, will be located adjacent to schools, commercial uses and civic uses. (b) Low densities, ranging from 8 to 18 units per hectare, are located at the fringes of the 5 minute walking distance from the centre. The subject parcels comply with Policy 5.3.4 that envisions creating neighbourhoods within a 200 metre (2 minute walking) radius of the Horse Hamlet centre. Based on the location of the subject sites and the policies above, the densities are required to step down from medium to low between 128th Avenue and Fern Crescent (north to south). The proposed subdivision sketch (Appendix D) demonstrates a stepping down of densities being achieved through the proposed R-2 (lot size 315 m2), RS -1b (lot size 557m2) and RS -1 (lot size 668 m2) zones, between 128th Avenue and the Fern Crescent dip. As mentioned earlier in this report, the developer is proposing a total of 34 single family residential lots (14 R-2; 17 RS -1b and 3 RS -1). The resulting total lot yield of 34 lots aligns with the maximum number of units permitted in the existing designations of the Silver Valley Plan. The proposed RS -1 zone correlates with the "Low Density Residential" designation; the proposed RS -lb zone correlates with the "Low -Medium Density Residential" designation and the proposed R-2 zone correlates with the "Medium Density Residential" designation of the Silver Valley Area Plan. The OCP amendment reflects some minor adjustments or ground-thruthing to the existing designations in order to achieve a safe and efficient road pattern. This is reflected in the OCP amending bylaw and map attached as Appendix B. -5- Address OCP designation Proportion 1 24005 Fern Crescent Low Density Residential 0% Low -Medium Density Residential 92% Medium Density Residential 8% 2 24009 Fern Crescent Low Density Residential 19% Low -Medium Density Residential 76% Medium Density Residential 5% 3 24075 Fern Crescent Low Density Residential 8% Low -Medium Density Residential 60% Medium Density Residential 32% Policy 5.3.9 specifies maximum densities associated with the above mentioned OCP designations in terms of units per net hectare permitted, as stated below: (a) Medium to medium -low densities, ranging from 15 to 40 units per hectare, will be located adjacent to schools, commercial uses and civic uses. (b) Low densities, ranging from 8 to 18 units per hectare, are located at the fringes of the 5 minute walking distance from the centre. The subject parcels comply with Policy 5.3.4 that envisions creating neighbourhoods within a 200 metre (2 minute walking) radius of the Horse Hamlet centre. Based on the location of the subject sites and the policies above, the densities are required to step down from medium to low between 128th Avenue and Fern Crescent (north to south). The proposed subdivision sketch (Appendix D) demonstrates a stepping down of densities being achieved through the proposed R-2 (lot size 315 m2), RS -1b (lot size 557m2) and RS -1 (lot size 668 m2) zones, between 128th Avenue and the Fern Crescent dip. As mentioned earlier in this report, the developer is proposing a total of 34 single family residential lots (14 R-2; 17 RS -1b and 3 RS -1). The resulting total lot yield of 34 lots aligns with the maximum number of units permitted in the existing designations of the Silver Valley Plan. The proposed RS -1 zone correlates with the "Low Density Residential" designation; the proposed RS -lb zone correlates with the "Low -Medium Density Residential" designation and the proposed R-2 zone correlates with the "Medium Density Residential" designation of the Silver Valley Area Plan. The OCP amendment reflects some minor adjustments or ground-thruthing to the existing designations in order to achieve a safe and efficient road pattern. This is reflected in the OCP amending bylaw and map attached as Appendix B. -5- Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No 3510 -1985: The current application proposes to rezone the subject properties (Appendix A) from RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential), and RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential), RS -1b (One Family Urban -Medium Density Residential) and R-2 (Urban Residential District). All the proposed lots meet the minimum lot area, lot width and lot depth specified in the respective zones. d) Environmental Implications: A three-tier storm water management system designed in accordance with the District's Watercourse Protection Bylaw 6410-2006 and incorporating rainfall capture, runoff control and flood risk management is required. A Storm Water Management Plan is being reviewed for the proposed subdivision and will be required to be finalized prior to the final subdivision approval. Based on the recommendations in the Arborist Report by Mike Fadem and Associates Ltd dated April 23, 2014, some tree retention opportunities along the northern and southern boundaries of the subject site will be considered prior to the final approval of the proposed subdivision. Where possible a best level of effort will be made to save mature trees and to protect their root zones within the backyards of the future lots, through a Tree Protection Restrictive Covenant. To compensate for tree loss due to roads and building envelopes within the subdivision new trees in strategic areas will be added as a replacement strategy. This will be assessed in detail and required as a condition of final subdivision approval. e) Development Information Meeting: On May 22, 2014 the developer and his team of consultants held a "Development Information Meeting" at Yennadon Elementary School at 23347 128th Avenue from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. As per Council Policy 6.20, invitations were mailed to qualifying property owners, advertisements were placed in the local paper and a notice was attached to the development sign on site. All the proposed drawings and information showing development concept, proposed road pattern, servicing concept, tree retention and information on possible building floor plans and elevations was displayed at this meeting. The development team of four members including the engineer of record from Hunter Laird Engineering consultants provided clarification and answered questions. This meeting was attended by approximately 26 people, while 12 of them provided written comments. The concerns expressed at the meeting and through the comments are summarized below: • Concerns were expressed over pre-existing traffic volumes on Fern Crescent and the additional impact on traffic due to the proposed development; • Concerns about existing problems around lack of respect for the environment and private properties due to use of the horse trail to access the South Alouette River; • Some would like to see more diversity in housing type and design in the Horse Hamlet area; • Concerns with the existing water table after trees are removed; • Would like to see 128th street arterial route built as a priority; • Concerns about lack of schools in the Silver Valley Area to support development in general; -6- • Concerns that access off of Fern Crescent is unsafe in conjunction with excess traffic on Fern Crescent; • Some had positive support for the proposed home designs; • Maximum retention of trees and protecting wildlife (bears and deer) corridors should be encouraged; • Concerns around lot sizes proposed; would prefer ranch style homes with more greenery (trees, shrubs, more planting); • Road widths could be narrower as per the Silver Valley Area Plan and bio-swales added to improve drainage and storm/rain water management; At the meeting, the developer and their consultant team provided answers to most of the concerns expressed, except the concern about lack of schools and pre-existing traffic on Fern Crescent. f) Traffic Considerations: The current road pattern identified in the Silver Valley Area Plan is conceptual and will need to be revisited as development occurs. The Area Plan envisions that 128th Avenue will be upgraded to an arterial road and the area referred to as the Fern Crescent dip will evolve into a local street with substantially less traffic. Once 128th Avenue becomes a functional arterial road, the traffic on Fern Crescent is anticipated to be reduced (i.e. the regional traffic will be divided between 128th Avenue and Fern Crescent for access to the Golden Ears Provincial Park). The Silver Valley Area Plan also identifies a road on either side of the "Neighbourhood Park" lots connecting 128th Avenue to Fern Crescent to the south, as well as lanes connecting to Fern Crescent which are eliminated in the proposed subdivision. It is noted that the road network identified in the Silver Valley Area Plan is conceptual in nature, and is refined as a result of ground-truthing at the subdivision approval stage. Once the Hamlet road patterns are confirmed, a future OCP Housekeeping package will be prepared to reflect the emerging road pattern in the Area. The applicants preliminary Traffic Analysis prepared by Hunter Laird Engineering suggests that avoiding access off of 128th Avenue into the development site is appropriate as it eliminates potential conflicts with local streets and with regional traffic. It is also noted that eliminating the two roads adjacent to the future park may protect existing trees. The applicants have since provided a detailed Traffic Impact Assessment, prepared by BWW Consulting (July 7, 2014). This report gives consideration to existing conditions, project traffic, intersection analysis, and Fern Crescent. The consultant has concluded that the traffic volumes generated by this subdivision will be low and that the analysis indicates a good operational Level of Service. The consultant has concluded the inclusion of advisory signage, coupled with the low volumes and adequate sight distances on Fern Crescent should provide satisfactory operating conditions. Further, it is suggested that when 128th Avenue is extended as the major route, appropriate signage and road design elements could be incorporated to reinforce the route change and de-emphasize Fern Crescent's use by through traffic. -7- g) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has reviewed the proposal and confirms that all the deficient services, including the required road dedication, are being provided through the Subdivision Servicing Agreement. Some off-site servicing upgrades such as new sanitary and storm sewer connection to the subject site will be secured through the Rezoning Servicing Agreement, as a condition of final reading. A 3.0 metre dedicated walkway and a right-of-way on proposed lots 33 and 34 will be required for a municipal storm sewer that will service some of the lots (Appendix D). The proposed road layout and road right-of-way standards within the proposed subdivision have been reviewed. It was confirmed that a 18.0 metre road right-of-way (Local Residential 2 road standard in the Silver Valley Area Plan) will accommodate two travel lanes (8.0 metre each), street trees, street lights, sidewalk and parking on both sides, while the 15.0 metre road right-of-way along the northern edge of the subject site (south of the future neighbourhood park) will be adequate to accommodate sidewalk and parking on one side. The Engineering Department has reviewed the above noted detailed Traffic Impact Assessment report (July 7, 2014) by BWW Consulting and has found it to be largely acceptable, noting that further details will be resolved at the subdivision stage of the project. Parks & Leisure Services Department: A referral was sent to the Parks and Leisure Services Department. The District now owns both the lots north of the subject sites, designated "Neighbourhood Park". Before the neighbourhood park is built, the District will engage in a public consultation process which will include the existing and future residents of the area. Fire Department: The Fire Department has reviewed the proposal and comments have been provided to the applicant. The proposed subdivision sketch has been revised to include a hammerhead turn around near proposed lots 20 and 21 as shown in Appendix D attached to this report. The Fire Department has no concerns with the proposed land use and subdivision. Building Department: The Building Department has reviewed the proposal and comments have been provided to the applicant. The applicant must ensure that all these will be addressed through the final Subdivision Servicing Plans at a later date. h) School District Comments: A referral was sent to the School District office and comments were received on May 6, 2014. The School District has reiterated that developments in the Silver Valley Area would affect the projected student population for the catchment area currently served by Yennadon Elementary and Garibaldi -8 Secondary schools. The enrollment at the Yennadon Elementary School is at 104.4% utilization (569 students, including 140 out of catchment students, for 2013-14 school year). The students from this area will need to be bussed to Harry Hooge and Alouette Elementary schools, which are beyond the established walking limits of the School Board. The current walking limit for Grades K-3 is 4 kilometres and for Grades 4-12 is 4.8 kilometres. Enrollment at Garibaldi Secondary school is at 74.67% utilization (784 students, including 362 out of catchment students, for 2013-2014). i) 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, (adjust the existing OCP designation boundaries to achieve a feasible road pattern and lot layout) 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 Regional District, the Council of an adjacent municipality, First Nations, the School District or agencies of the Federal and Provincial Governments. The amendment has been reviewed with the Financial Plan/Capital Plan and the Waste Management Plan of the Greater Vancouver Regional District and is determined to have no impact. j) Citizen/Customer Implications: A Development Information Meeting was conducted on May 22, 2014 where the neighbours had an opportunity to express their concerns. This along with a future Public Hearing is considered adequate opportunities for citizens to voice their concerns regarding the proposed development. CONCLUSION: The proposal meets the maximum density permitted by the existing designations for the subject sites, identified in the Silver Valley Area Plan. However, an OCP amendment is required to re- distribute the existing OCP designations to achieve an efficient road pattern and lot layout (Appendix D). The Engineering Department is in support of the proposed road layout. The applicant submitted a preliminary Traffic Analysis and a follow-up detailed Traffic Impact Assessment report which concludes the development will generate low traffic volumes and the operating Level of Service is good. Some signage and possible future road improvements could be considered when 128th Avenue is extended that could de -emphasis the use of Fern Crescent to through traffic. -9- Therefore, it is recommended that first and second reading be given to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7088-2014, that second reading be given to Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7053-2014, and that application 2013-107-RZ be forwarded to Public Hearing.

DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Nordel Homes Ltd. (Amar Bains) Owners: Guards Capital Group (Corp. Inc No. 0547954) Gurjeet Dhindsa Surinder Dhindsa Legal Description: Lot: 4, Section: 3, Township: 12, Plan: 9393 Lot: 19, Section: 3, Township: 12, Plan: BCP36407 OCP: Existing: Medium Density Residential Zoning: Existing: RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential), and RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) Proposed: RM -1 (Townhouse Residential) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Vacant Zone: RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: Institutional South: Use: Park, Single Family Residential Zone: RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) and RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Designation: Conservation, Medium Density Residential East: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: Medium Density Residential West: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District) Designation: Medium Density Residential Existing Use of Property: Single Family Residential Proposed Use of Property: Multi -Family Residential Access: 104 Avenue, 240A Street Servicing: Urban Standard Companion Applications: 2012 -119 -DP Site Area: 2.3 hectares (5.68 acres) -2- b) Project Description: The proposed townhouse development is comprised of 18 buildings with between four and seven attached units. There are a total of 12 different floor plans available. The majority of units (73) range in size between 114 m2 - 140 m2 (1225 ft2 - 1514 ft2). The remaining 31 units are larger at 173 m2 (1850 ft2). The project is proposed to develop over four phases, starting from the 104 Avenue frontage and working southwards and westwards. Two vehicle access points are proposed for the development, at 104 Avenue and 240A Street. The 104 Avenue entrance will be shared with the townhouse development to the west, and a cross access easement is required to allow residents of both developments to enter and exit across the adjacent property. All 104 units have been designed with a tandem parking arrangement and the buildings are three storeys in height. Visitor parking spaces are distributed throughout the development to reduce the visual impact of these parking areas, and to provide close proximity parking options for all buildings. Both an indoor and outdoor amenity space are included in the site design. A two storey amenity unit is located in building 3 that will include an outdoor patio space and a picnic table. The common outdoor activity area is located in the northwestern area of the subject properties behind buildings 3, 5 and 11. The outdoor space will include a children's playground space with benches for seating nearby. The surrounding area will be landscaped with trees and grass to provide shade and informal play areas. A spring, which connects to Spencer Creek further south, is located on the subject properties. This spring will be enhanced with a replanting plan and incorporated into the overall design of the development. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The subject properties are located within the Albion Area Plan, and are subject to the regulations as outlined in the Official Community Plan. The Area Plan designates the property Medium Density Residential which allows for a range of housing styles and densities, including townhouses. The proposed rezoning to RM -1 (Townhouse Residential) is in compliance with the regulations of the Official Community Plan. Zoning Bylaw: The applicant is proposing to rezone the subject properties from RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) and RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RM -1 (Townhouse Residential), to permit the construction of 104 unit townhouse units (see Appendix B). The proposed development meets the required setbacks from all of the property lines; however, an increase to the maximum building height has been requested (see Appendix C). -3- Proposed Variances: A Development Variance Permit application has been received for this project and involves the following relaxation (see Appendix D): 1. Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510 - 1985, Part 6, Section 602, Subsection 7, item a), to increase the height from 10.5 metres and 2.5 storeys to 11 metres and 3 storeys. The requested variance to the RM -1 (Townhouse Residential) will be the subject of a future report to Council. Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw: The proposed development has 104 townhouse units, which requires two parking spaces per dwelling unit, and 21 visitor parking spaces according to the Maple Ridge Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No. 4350-1990. This development is providing 208 off-street parking spaces and 24 visitor spaces. All of the 104 townhouse units have a tandem garage, where vehicles are parked one behind the other. This complies with the current Maple Ridge Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No. 4350-1990, but it is noted that through the approved 2013 Business Plan, Council have directed a review of tandem parking. This application was received prior to staff research into reducing the amount of tandem parking permitted in the RM -1 (Townhouse Residential) zone. No changes to date have been finalized at the time of this report. Development Permits: The subject properties are adjacent to Spencer Creek and contains isolated slopes with grades exceeding 25% . A Watercourse Protection and Natural Features Development Permit are required for the preservation, restoration and enhancement of the natural environment of the watercourse areas and of the natural features on the site. A security will be taken as a condition of the issuance of the Development Permit to ensure that the Development Permit Area Guidelines are met. Pursuant to Section 8.7 of the Official Community Plan, a Multi -Family Development Permit application is required to ensure the current proposal enhances existing neighbourhoods with compatible housing styles that meet diverse needs, and minimize potential conflicts with neighbouring land uses. Accordingly, prior to the issuance of a Building Permit, the Development Permit must be reviewed and approved. Adherence of this project to the Development Permit Guidelines of this permit will be the subject of a future report to Council. Advisory Design Panel: The Advisory Design Panel reviewed the form and character of the proposed townhouse development and the landscaping plans at a meeting held on December 10, 2013. Following presentations by the project Architect and Landscape Architect, the Advisory Design Panel resolved that: -4- The application be supported and the following concerns be addressed as the design develops and submitted to Planning staff for follow-up: • Consider continuing the perimeter trail around building 7 or more to the north to eliminate a dead end; • Consider barrier free access to central amenity area; • Consider better series of connections for the pedestrian walkway; • Consider a continuous sidewalk at the main vehicle entrance; • Provide details of site entry features; • Consider architectural treatment to more visible ends of the buildings; • Consider the surface treatment at unit entries; • Better consideration to be taken at the termination of building finishes; • Consider glass panels in the entry doors or garage doors; • Consider matching styles of windows on each elevation; • Provide architectural character with trellis or roof skirts on the building elevations facing amenities area; • Provide pedestrian and roadway lighting details; and • Provide more prominence to north access to amenity area. The ADP concerns have been addressed and the architectural plans have been revised. This information will be summarized in the future Development Permit report to Council. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting was held at Albion Elementary on June 11, 2014. In total, seven people attended the information meeting. A summary of the comments and discussions with the attendees was provided by the applicant and include the following concerns: 1. Construction noise and traffic 2. Increased amount of traffic on 240A Street and 103 Avenue; and 3. Increased parking on 240A Street and 103 Avenue The following are provided in response to the issues raised by the public: 1. The applicant will be required to adhere to the Noise Bylaw and provide a construction traffic management through the Highway Use Permit. 2. A Traffic Impact Assessment has been prepared by Creative Transportation Solutions, which states that at the busiest hour of the day, the proposed development is estimated to generate up to 63 vehicle trips. This level of traffic demand is equivalent to one vehicle movement on average every minute. 3. The required number of resident and visitor parking spaces have been provided within the townhouse site. -5- d) Environmental Implications: A Watercourse Protection Development Permit and a Natural Features Development Permit are required for the proposed development. The applicant has provided an enhancement and replanting plan for the existing parkland to the south of the subject properties prepared by Envirowest Consultants Inc. The Environmental Consultant has advised that invasive plants, including Himalayan blackberry and yellow archangel along the southern property line and riparian area adjacent to Spencer Creek will be removed by the applicant through the development permit application approval process. Enhancement of the riparian area will consist of the addition of native trees, shrubs and ground cover. Existing native plants in the riparian area will be conserved, and enhancement plantings will be integrated with existing vegetation. Approximately 6657 m2 (1.6 acres) of riparian area will be enhanced. Additionally, the applicant's Environmental Consultant, Envirowest Consultants Inc., reports that flows from the spring located in the northeastern corner of the southern lot will be maintained. Flows will be directed via a landscaped gravel swale into an inlet structure and then to a constructed infiltration trench. This will ensure that flows from the spring will still contribute to Spencer Creek. The area around the conserved spring will be extensively landscaped. An area of approximately 874 m2 (9400 ft2) will be enhanced via the addition of native and ornamental plants. Lastly, Envirowest Consultants Inc. proposes to construct a rain garden in the northeast corner of the subject properties. The channel section of the rain garden will be constructed with gravel, cobble and boulders. Native vegetation including shrubs, ferns and grasses, will be planted in a band on the banks and perimeter the rain garden. The rain garden and plantings will occupy a total area of 145 m2 (1560 ft2) (see Appendix E), and will contribute to the onsite stormwater management through biofiltration and infiltration. e) Traffic Impact: As the subject properties are located within 800 metres of a Lougheed Highway intersection, a referral has been sent to the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. Ministry approval of the Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw 6969 - 2013 will be required as a condition of final reading. At this time, the Ministry has granted preliminary approval of the development application. Furthermore, the applicant has submitted a Traffic Impact Assessment prepared by Creative Transportation Solutions. The report concludes that the proposed development is estimated to generate up to 63 vehicle trips during the weekday afternoon peak hour. This level of traffic demand is equivalent to one vehicle movement on average every minute, which is not considered significant from a traffic engineering point of view. The projected demand is also below the provincial threshold for triggering a full traffic impact study, which is 100 or more `new' vehicle trips. Creative Transportation Solutions also concluded that the intersections at 104 Avenue and 240 Street can accommodate the projected site traffic and maintain the current level of service until the year 2017. Additionally, the report suggests changes to the operation of the intersection at 240 Street and 103 Avenue that the applicant may need to address with this application. This will be addressed in the Rezoning Servicing Agreement, as a condition of final reading. -6- f) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has reviewed the development proposal for the subject properties, and has determined that servicing improvements along 104 Avenue are required. These works and services will be secured through a Rezoning Servicing Agreement prior to final reading. The servicing improvements will require profile upgrades along 104 Avenue beyond the frontage of the subject properties. Fire Department: The Fire Department has reviewed the strata road circulation pattern in terms of emergency access and fire truck turning radii, and is satisfied with the development proposal.

The vehicle access point is located on 104 Avenue and will be shared with the townhouse development to the east. A cross -2- access easement is required to allow residents of both developments to enter and exit across the adjacent property. All 18 units have been designed with a double car parking arrangement, additionally, building one on the east side includes driveway aprons with sufficient parking width and depth for two additional vehicles per unit. The buildings are three storeys in height. Three visitor parking spaces are located close to the entry point into the development. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The subject property is located within the Albion Area Plan, and is subject to the regulations as outlined in the Official Community Plan. The Area Plan designation for the subject property is Medium Density Residential, which allows for a range of housing styles and densities, including townhouses. The proposed rezoning to RM -1 (Townhouse Residential) is in compliance with the regulations of the Official Community Plan. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the property located at 24086 104 Avenue from RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RM -1 (Townhouse Residential) to permit the construction of 18 residential townhouse units. The applicant has requested a variance to increase the height of the proposed building and reduce the front yard setback. Proposed Variances: A Development Variance Permit application has been received for this project and involves the following relaxations: 1. Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510 -1985, Part 6, Section 602, 6a), to reduce the front yard setback from 7.5 to 4.5 metres; 2. Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510 -1985, Part 6, Section 602,7a), to increase the height from 10.5 metres and 2.5 storeys to 11 metres and 3 storeys. 3. Maple Ridge Off -Street Parking And Loading Bylaw No. 4350-1990. 'Schedule A' 1c), to reduce the required number of visitor parking spaces from 4 to 3. The requested variances are supported by the Planning Department, and will be the subject of a future report to Council. Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw: The proposed development has 18 townhouse units, each requiring two parking spaces per dwelling unit, and 0.2 visitor parking spaces per unit according to the Maple Ridge Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No. 4350-1990. Therefore, 36 off-street parking spaces and four visitor spaces are required. All of the 18 townhouse units have a double car garage, and building 1 on the east side has driveway aprons of sufficient width and depth that can accommodate an additional two parking spaces. The applicant has requested a variance for the visitor parking space requirement from four to three visitor parking spaces. -3- Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.7 of the Official Community Plan, a Multi -Family Development Permit application is required to ensure the current proposal enhances existing neighbourhoods with compatible housing styles that meet diverse needs, and minimize potential conflicts with neighbouring land uses. Advisory Design Panel: The Advisory Design Panel reviewed the form and character of the proposed townhouse development and the landscaping plans at a meeting held December 10, 2013. Following presentations by the project Architect and Landscape Architect, the Advisory Design Panel resolved that: The application be supported and the following concerns be addressed as the design develops and submitted to Planning staff for follow-up: • Confirm FSR calculations to determine if more space can be allotted for building entries. • Provide architectural treatment and possible glass panels on garage doors and entry doors. • Look at reducing building overhang on visitor parking. • Consider contrasting surface treatment at building entries. • Consider more robust landscape treatment at main vehicle entry. • Look into providing pedestrian connection to adjacent site. • Consider reducing setback along east property line and provide sidewalk in front of building 2. • Provide pedestrian connection to 104th. • Consider alternate border/fence treatment along east property line with a lower profile. • Consider adjusting landscape alignment of retaining walls with a clear integration along adjacent property. • Consider relocation entry gate to child play area so as not to interfere with parking. • Consider increasing child play area with a possible reduction to the patio. • Consider entry element to amenity area. • Provide combined site sections through both the development sites. The Advisory Design Panel concerns have been addressed and the architectural plans have been revised. d) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has reviewed the development proposal and has determined that servicing upgrades are required along 104 Avenue, therefore a Rezoning Servicing Agreement is required prior to final approval of the rezoning application. -4- Fire Department: The Fire Department has reviewed the strata road circulation pattern in terms of emergency access and fire truck turning radii, and is satisfied with the development proposal. Detailed fire requirements will be provided through the Building Permit application process. CONCLUSION: The proposed application is in compliance with the Official Community Plan.

The applicant intends to construct an 1825m2 commercial building to accommodate the proposed use. This application is in compliance with the Official Community Plan (OCP). The application was given first reading on January 28, 2014. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7048-2013 be given second reading, and be forwarded to Public Hearing; and 2. That the following terms and conditions be met prior to final reading: Approval from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure; ii.

Registration of a Rezoning Servicing Agreement as a Restrictive Covenant and receipt of the deposit of a security, as outlined in the Agreement; iv. Road dedication as required; v. Registration of a geotechnical report as a Restrictive Covenant at the Land Title Office which addresses the suitability of the site for the proposed development; 1106 DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owner: Teck Construction Dynamic Blasting Ltd. Legal Description: Lot A, District Lot 250, Group 1, New Westminster District Plan 8735 OCP: Existing: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Commercial CS -1 (Service Commercial) C-2 (Community Commercial) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Service Commercial Zone: CS -1 (Service Commercial) and C-2 (Community Commercial) Designation: Commercial South: East: West: Use: Residential Zone: RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) Designation: Urban Residential Use: Service Commercial Zone: CS -1 (Service Commercial) Designation: Commercial Use: Service Commercial Zone: CS-1(Service Commercial) Designation: Commercial, Residential Existing Use of Property: Service Commercial Proposed Use of Property: Retail Commercial Site Area: 0.35 hectares (0.86 acres) Access: Two access points: Lougheed Highway and Owen Street Servicing requirement: Urban Standard b) Project Description: This subject property is located on Lougheed Highway, at Owen Street, one block east of the intersection of Lougheed Highway and 207 Street. It is situated in a commercial hub that begins several blocks east of 207 Street and continues west along Lougheed Highway to the municipal boundary. The one storey building that was located at the subject property has been demolished. -2- The applicant proposes to construct a new building for the relocated Maple Ridge Mark's Work Wearhouse store. This new building will provide approximately double the square footage, for a total of 1825m2. The building size will be larger than the previous building, but the location on site will be similar, with parking west and south of the proposed building site. The proposed development will retain the same two access points as the previous commercial use, via Lougheed Highway and Owen Street. The proposed development consists of a two storey tilt -up concrete structure, with industrial design elements including a mix of cultured stone and metal cladding, as well the use of metal canopies accented in bold orange, as per Mark's Work Wearhouse corporate design standards. Landscaping will occur along the two property frontages of Lougheed Highway and Owen Street. The southern boundary will retain the existing cedar hedge, along with the addition of a solid vinyl fence as a sound buffer between the commercial use and the single family residential lots. Road dedication of 1.5 metres along Lougheed Highway and 0.85 metres along Owen Street will be required. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The subject property is designated Commercial in the Official Community Plan. Due to the site's location on Lougheed Highway outside of the Town Centre, and based on Policy 6-23 (a), this development is subject to the General Commercial policies of the OCP. The objective of the General Commercial category as stated in the OCP is to "respond to emerging market trends and shopping preferences and to permit greater flexibility in the range of commercial uses". The C-2 (Community Commercial) zone aligns with the General Commercial designation. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the subject property located at 20758 Lougheed Highway from CS -1 (Service Commercial) to C-2 (Community Commercial) to permit the construction of a commercial retail building. The applicant has requested a variance to reduce the number of required parking stalls; to increase the height of the building; to reduce rear setback requirements; and to reduce the servicing upgrades to Owen Street. Proposed Variances: The applicant has requested the following variances for this development: • Reduced parking from 60 to 46 stalls. The Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw requires that a commercial building provide one stall per 30m2 of retail space. The applicant has provided 46 parking stalls on the proposed site plan, whereas the required number of stalls based on the building floorspace area is 60 stalls. Additionally, 10 percent of the total number of parking stalls is allowed to be small car parking stalls, and the applicant is requesting the ratio be increased to 22 percent, or 10 of the 46 stalls; • Height variance from 7.5 metres to 9.7 metres to accomodate Mark's Work Wearhouse image standards, and provide for sufficient interior and exterior signage and feature lighting; -3- • Rear setback variance from 6 metres to 1.2 metres for the portion of the building used for an office, storage, and loading capabilities; and • Reduced servicing upgrades to Owen Street to exclude curb, gutter, and sidewalk. The requested variances will be the subject of a future report to Council. Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.5 of the Official Community Plan, a Commercial Development Permit application is required to address the current proposal's compatibility with adjacent development, and to enhance the unique character of the community. This will be the subject of a future report to Council. Advisory Design Panel: The Advisory Design Panel reviewed the form and character of the proposed commercial development and the landscaping plans at a meeting held June 10, 2014. Following presentations by the project Architect and Landscape Architect, the Advisory Design Panel made the following resolutions: That the following concerns are addressed, and that revised drawings are submitted to Planning staff: 1. Consider further detail on southern fence for acoustic buffering; 2. Consider additional parking lot lighting for increased safety and site circulation; 3. Reconsider plant species placement on the north side of building; 4. Consider additional plant variety along Owen Street frontage; 5. Consider onsite storm water management with rain garden on north side from rooftop rain capture; 6. Consider additional landscape treatment along Owen Street frontage extending past property line; 7. Consider 3 additional planting islands within parking lot against building for additional shade trees. The applicant has addressed items 1 - 4 from the Advisory Design Panel resolutions, and revised drawings have been submitted to Planning staff for review. Revised plans include: solid vinyl fencing for acoustic buffering, 1.8 metre in height, on the southern property boundary; the addition of four pole lights on the western parking perimeter; proposed plant species placement moved from the north side of building to the middle of the parking row, as well as adding a small landscape island to the south end of the parking row; the addition of tall accent shrubs for plant variety along Owen Street frontage. The applicant is in the process of completing the balance of the resolution items, which will be completed with the Development Permit application and prior to final zoning approval. Outstanding resolutions include: designing a stormwater management plan that meets the 3 -tier site source -4- control requirements; and the applicant is continuing to work with the Planning Department to revise the landscaping plans. d) Traffic Impact: The subject property is within the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure's referral area.

By ACT SHEET No L1 4 MAPLE RIDGE British Columbia TO: FROM: SUBJECT: Rescinding Third Reading 10150 and 10190 Jackson Road His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin and Members of Council Chief Administrative Officer District of Maple Ridge REVISED MEETING DATE: July 21, 2014 FILE NO: 2011-082-RZ MEETING: C of W EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Council granted a one year extension to the above noted application on July 9, 2013. The purpose of this application is to rezone the subject property from RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) and M-2 (General Industrial) to R-1 (Residential District) and RS -1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) to allow for future subdivision into approximately 45 single family lots. Staff recommend that an extension not be granted, because the subject property experienced a number of slope failures, whose cause and restoration plan is still being determined. Such work will result in an additional geotechnical report and remediation plan that must be available to the public. The District's solicitor has advised staff that this constitutes new information after Public Hearing, and thus must be considered at a new Public Hearing. Given this fact, it would be inappropriate to grant the requested extension. Therefore, it is recommended that third reading for Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012 and Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No.6861-2011 be rescinded, and the application be taken to a new Public Hearing once revised information is received. Rescinding the above mentioned bylaws will remove the third reading timeline limitations for the project, and will allow the applicant more time to investigate and rectify the slope stability issue. It is also recommended that the original terms and conditions be modified by an additional rezoning condition, to ensure that the proposed remediation works and submission of performance securities are completed prior to final approval of the zone amending bylaw. RECOMMENDATION: 1. That a final one year extension for application 2011-082-RZ not be granted; and 2. That third reading of Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012 and Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No.6861-2011 be rescinded; and 3. That the applicant submit a revised geotechnical report outlining how the slope failure issues will be resolved to the satisfaction of the District of Maple Ridge; and 4. That the following conditions be addressed prior to consideration of final reading: i. Approval from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure; ii. Amendment to Schedule "A" & "C" of the Official Community Plan; 1107 1- iii. Registration of a geotechnical report as a Restrictive Covenant which addresses the suitability of the site for the proposed development; iv. That the applicant undertakes the mitigation recommendations outlined in the revised geotechnical report and provides a performance security equivalent to the cost of the remediation work; v. Road and park dedication as required; vi. Consolidation of the development site; vii. Purchase of the eastern portion of Lot B of BCP 46878 (10190 Jackson Road) and consolidation of the western portion with Jackson Farm Park; and viii. A disclosure statement must be submitted by a Professional Engineer advising whether there is any evidence of underground fuel storage tanks. If there is evidence, a site profile pursuant to the Waste Management Act must be provided in accordance with the regulations. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Damax Consultants Ltd Owners: Seyem' Qwantlen Land Development Ltd District of Maple Ridge Legal Descriptions: Lot: A, Section: 3, Township: 12,NWD Plan: EPP9830 Lot: B, Section: 3, Township 12, NWD Plan: BCP46878 OCP: Existing: Low/Medium Density Residential, Medium Density Residential Proposed: Medium Density Residential, Conservation Zoning: Existing: RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential), M-2 (General Industrial) Proposed: R-1 (Residential District), RS -1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Park Zone: RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential), M-2 (General Industrial) Designation: Conservation 2- South: East: West: Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Site Area: Access: Servicing requirement: Vacant R-1 (Residential District) Urban Residential Vacant R-1 (Residential District), RS -1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential Urban Residential Park RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential), M-2 (General Industrial) Agricultural Vacant Single Family Residential 4.12 hectares (10.3 acres) Jackson Road Urban Standard The following dates outline Council's consideration of the application and applicable bylaws: • First reading was considered and granted on November 8, 2011; • Second reading (see attached report) was considered and granted on June 12, 2012; • Public Hearing was held July 17, 2012; • Third reading was granted July 24, 2012; and • A one year extension was granted on July 9, 2013. b) Application Progress: In January 2014, heavy rainfall resulted in two localized slope failures in the proposed park dedication area of 10150 Jackson Road. Since the failure occurred, the applicant has been actively working to stabilize the property. A peer review of the original geotechnical report has been submitted, and the applicant's geotechnical engineer is preparing a mitigation strategy. Prior to final reading consideration, the recommended slope stabilization measures and remediation must take place, and the applicant's Geotechnical Engineer must provide assurance that the land is safe for the use intended. It is unclear at this point if changes to the subdivision plan or rezoning/OCP designation boundaries will be required. If such changes are required, a staff report would be prepared speaking to the required amendments and the Public Hearing date. The applicant is also actively pursuing the completion of the original terms and conditions of the rezoning application. As the slope failures and resulting geotechnical analysis and necessary remediation are new information after Public Hearing, the municipal solicitor has advised that third reading be rescinded, and that the application be presented at a future Public Hearing. Rescinding the above mentioned bylaws will remove the third reading timeline limitations for the project, and will allow the applicant more time to investigate and rectify the slope stability issue. An additional term has been added to the original rezoning conditions in the recommendation of this report, to ensure that a revised geotechnical report and a performance security for the proposed remediation works be submitted; and that the remediation work be completed prior to final approval of the zone amending bylaw. c) Alternatives: Council may choose one of the following alternatives: 3- 1. Grant a one year extension for the existing application with no additional terms and conditions. In this scenario, once the applicant completes the current terms and conditions of the rezoning application, final reading can be requested. 2. If Council chooses neither the recommended option, nor the above noted alternative, the existing bylaws will expire and the rezoning application will be closed. CONCLUSION: The applicant has been working towards completion of this rezoning application; however two localized slope failures on 10150 Jackson Road in January 2014 require additional geotechnical analysis and site remediation prior to final reading. As a result of this event and the subsequent new information required, the municipal solicitor has advised that third reading be rescinded and a new Public Hearing be held. A revised staff report will be prepared, setting a new Public Hearing date when the additional information can be presented to the public.

DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owners: Damax Consultants Ltd Seyem' Qwantlen Land Development Ltd District of Maple Ridge Legal Descriptions: Lot: A, Section: 3, Township: 12,NWD Plan: EPP9830 Lot: B, Section: 3, Township 12, NWD Plan: BCP46878 OCP: Existing: Proposed: Low/Medium Density Residential, Medium Density Residential Medium Density Residential, Conservation Zoning: Existing: RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential), M-2 (General Industrial) Proposed: R-1 (Residential District), RS -lb (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) -2- 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 requirement: b) Project Description: Park RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential), M-2 (General Industrial) Conservation Vacant R-1 (Residential District) Urban Residential Vacant R-1 (Residential District), RS -1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential Urban Residential Park RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential), M-2 (General Industrial) Agricultural Sand and Gravel (Vacant and Improved), Vacant Single Family Residential 4.12 hectares (10.3 acres) Jackson Road Urban Standard The applicant proposes to rezone the subject site, a former sand and gravel pit, to allow for future subdivision into approximately 45 R-1 (Residential District) lots. A very small portion of the north east corner of the site will be zoned RS -lb (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) to be eventually consolidated with an RS -lb (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) lot further east. Approximately 1.46 hectares (3.6 acres) of steep sloping land will be dedicated as park, which will include a lookout area and a multipurpose trail connecting to existing trails to the north of the subject site. Portions of the site are proposed to be filled with soil acquired from the re -grading of lands to the east. It will be necessary for the applicant to purchase the eastern portion of municipal property located at 10190 Jackson Road in order to proceed with this development application. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The subject site is located in the Albion Area Plan. Approximately 75% of the site is designated Low/Medium Density Residential, while the remainder is designated Medium Density Residential. Both these Official Community Plan designations permit single detached housing forms located in the Albion Area. The R-1 (Residential District) zone is in compliance with the Medium Density Residential designation, but the Low/Medium Density Residential designation would typically allow -3- an RS -1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) zone. The land to the south and east of the subject site (Upper Jackson Farm) is outside the Albion Area Plan and is designated Urban Residential. There is an active subdivision application (SD/040/09) on that land for R-1 (Residential District) zoned lots. Therefore, justification has been provided to support an OCP amendment to re -designate the Low/Medium Density Residential land to Medium Density Residential on the subject site. The subject site is not located in the North Albion Area and therefore not involved in the North Albion Review process currently underway. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the properties located at 10150 and 10190 Jackson Road from RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) and M-2 (General Industrial) to R-1 (Residential District) and RS -1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) to permit future subdivision into single family homes. All the proposed lots meet the requirements of these zones. Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.10 of the Official Community Plan, a Natural Features Development Permit application is required for all development and subdivision activity for all lands with an average natural slope of greater than 15 percent to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of the natural environment and for development that is protected from hazardous conditions. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting was held at Thomas Haney Secondary School on April 5, 2012. A summary of the comments and discussions with the attendees was provided by the applicant and included the following concerns: • Impact of 248 Street properties' views; • Pedestrian safety on Jackson Road. The applicant provided the following in response to the issues raised by the public: • The existing grades on the subject site will be lowered substantially and as a result, will reduce the impact on views. • Road improvements to increase pedestrian safety are proposed to include a sidewalk on the east side of Jackson Road and a multi-purpose trail on the west side to connect with the park to the south. A round -about traffic circle will be constructed at Jackson Road and 102 Avenue as part of a separate application (SD/040/09). -4- d) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has reviewed the proposed development and has advised that no servicing works are required with this application and therefore a Rezoning Servicing Agreement will not be needed. Sanitary and storm sewer construction, as well as watermain and street light installation on Jackson Road fronting this site, has previously been secured through the Rezoning Servicing Agreement for development of Upper Jackson Farm under approved application RZ/040/09. The Engineering Department has further advised that road dedication along the full length of the development site, including a portion of 10190 Jackson Road, to achieve the 26 metre road allowance required for an urban arterial, will be necessary for this project. Parks & Leisure Services Department: The Parks & Leisure Services Department have identified that after the subdivision is completed they will be responsible for maintaining the street trees. In the case of this project it is estimated that there will be an additional 50 trees which is based on one tree per lot; final subdivision design will provide exact numbers. The Manager of Parks & Open Space has advised that the maintenance requirement of $25.00 per new tree will increase their budget requirements by $1250.00. Fire Department: The Fire Department has reviewed the proposed development and has noted that any landscaping proposed for the lots fronting Jackson Road should not obscure the visibility of addresses now or in the future to ensure efficient emergency response. e) School District Comments: A referral was submitted to School District 42 for comment on the proposed OCP amendment; however, no comments have been received to date. In past discussions with staff of the School District, it is clear that Albion Elementary is exceeding capacity. Therefore, an increase to the number of elementary -aged children as a result of this proposal will likely require those children to attend a school other than Albion Elementary. f) Environmental Implications: The applicant has submitted a Natural Features Development Permit application as the subject site includes lands with an average natural slope of greater than 15 percent. The requirements of this Development Permit will be to provide enhancement and replanting works in the areas identified for park dedication, as well as securities equivalent to 100% of the replanting works and maintenance for five years. g) 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, from land use designation -5- 1 111111 111111111 1111 11 III 1111 11 111H111 11 Low/Medium Density Residential to Medium Density Residential and Conservation 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 Regional District, the Council of an adjacent municipality, First Nations, the School District or agencies of the Federal and Provincial Governments. The amendment has been reviewed with the Financial Plan/Capital Plan and the Waste Management Plan of the Greater Vancouver Regional District and determined to have no impact. CONCLUSION: Based on the review of supporting information regarding the proposed rezoning and subdivision applications, it is recommended that Second Reading be given to Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No.6861-2011 and forwarded to Public Hearing; and further that First and Second Reading be given to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012 and be forwarded to Public Hearing.

The requested variance is to vary the required road carriageway width on 267 Street from 7m to the existing 6m. It is recommended that Development Variance Permit 2011-122-DVP be approved. Council considered rezoning application 2011-122-RZ and granted first reading for Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6880 - 2011 on January 10, 2012 and second reading on November 26, 2013. This application was presented at Public Hearing on December 10, 2013, and Council granted third reading on December 10, 2013. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2011-122-DVP respecting property located at 11956 267 Street.

Subdivision and Development Services Bylaw No. 4800 - 1993, Schedule C - District of Maple Ridge Standard Drawings and Specifications: To reduce the minimum road carriageway for a rural local road from 7m to 6m. c) Project Description: The applicant proposes to rezone the property from RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) for the purpose of future subdivision into two one acre lots. d) Planning Analysis: The Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510 - 1985 establishes general minimum and maximum regulations for single family development. The Subdivision and Development Services Bylaw No. 4800- 1993 establishes regulations and servicing standards that must be achieved or varied in order to subdivide land within the District of Maple Ridge. A Development Variance Permit allows Council some flexibility in the approval process. The applicant is proposing to vary the minimum road carriageway width from 7m to 6m, to keep it as it is currently constructed. The existing road has adequate capacity and width to serve the additional proposed lot. Road dedication will be provided at the rezoning stage to be able to achieve the minimum right-of-way width of 20m. The current right-of-way width is 18.9m; 0.55m will be dedicated with the rezoning of this property, and the other 0.55m would be dedicated when the property to the west develops. e) Interdepartmental Implications: The Engineering Department supports the variance as the existing road has adequate capacity and width to serve the additional proposed lot. -2 CONCLUSION: The proposed variance is supportable as the existing road has adequate capacity and width to serve the additional proposed lot. It is therefore recommended that this application be favourably considered and the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal Development Variance Permit 2011-122-DVP.

Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510-1985, Part 9, Section 903, 3d): To reduce the interior side yard setbacks on the north and south side, and the rear yard setback from 7.5 to 1.4 metres, with no additional siting exceptions. 2. Maple Ridge Off Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No. 4350 -1990, 'Schedule A', 6a): To reduce the required number of parking spaces from 26 to 11. c) Project Description: The subject property fronts onto 216 Street. The property's existing house was significantly expanded in 2002 and became a 21 bed care facility. The original portion of the building (the Baynes Residence) is on the Maple Ridge Heritage Inventory. The applicant's proposal to construct a second building on the property will not change the heritage value or character of the Baynes Residence. An existing licensed care facility currently operates on the property and the eastern portion of the subject property is vacant. The existing licensed care building is a partnership between BC Housing, the MPA Society, and the Fraser Health Authority who own, operate, and fund the existing Beckman House initiative, respectively. The Beckman House provides 21 licensed care beds and has been in operation for ten years. Additionally, the MPA Society operates two duplexes in the area for supported living. 2- Beckman House provides a range of services including psychiatric support, transitioning to independent living and life -skills enhancement programs. According to the MPA society website, Beckman House involves residents in all aspects of their recovery from mental health issues in an environment of acceptance, mutual respect and empowerment. The applicant proposes to construct a second building to LEED gold standard on the east side of the subject property behind the existing building. The proposed building will be two storeys and the proposed expansion to Beckman House will provide 20 additional assisted living beds to an existing care and housing site. d) Planning Analysis: The Zoning Bylaw and Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw establish general minimum and maximum regulations for development. A Development Variance Permit allows Council flexibility in the approval process. The applicant has requested a relaxation on the building setbacks and the number of parking spaces. The size and siting of the proposed building is designed to maximize the existing parcel size. Due to the shape of the subject property, the P-2 (Special Institutional) zone setbacks of 7.5 metres would not allow for construction of a functional building. The reduction from 7.5 to 1.4 metres with no additional siting exceptions will allow adequately deep assisted living units and provide for the required corridor width for a B-2 care use. In addition to reducing the building setbacks to allow construction of a functionally sized building, the applicant is also seeking to reduce the number of parking spaces required for a Private Hospital use. The existing assisted living facility has six parking spaces. As a result of re -developing the subject property, the western entrance area of the property will be reconfigured to add an additional five parking spaces as well as landscaping. In justifying the parking space relaxation, the Clinical Director of Mental Health & Substance Abuse at Fraser Health has provided statistics and supporting evidence to illustrate the occurrence of car usage amongst existing residents of supporting living residences. The letter states: "The Mental Health and Substance Use program in Fraser Health conducted a survey of our Community Residential Coordinators to ascertain the vehicle use of clients currently living in licensed housing facilities. Within the 12 communities served by Fraser Health, vehicle use ranged from 0-2/community, with no more than 1/facility. Of the approximate 300 referrals/year received for licensed mental health housing in Fraser Health, <1/100 [less than 1 in 100] has access to a vehicle. Anecdotal evidence from our coordinators who have worked in this area of healthcare for a number of years is that vehicle use amongst all MHSU clients who receive housing support is rare. As a result of this survey we can say with confidence that vehicle use by the residents who will be residing in this proposed facility would be minimal. It is our understanding from MPA Society, the operators of the current Beckman licensed facility and the proposed Assisted Living facility, that a maximum of 8 stalls would be required by staff, including space for the Beckman van, at peak times. In addition, based on our experience at other Mental Health and Substance Use sites, we anticipate the need for visitor parking to be low. It is therefore our opinion that the proposed 11 parking stalls would be sufficient for this site" 3- e) Citizen Implications: Approximately four residential homes will be impacted by the reduced setbacks, and the single family home to the east of the subject property is sited closest to the proposed building. The applicant has met with adjacent owners to address their privacy concerns and provide measures to mitigate the impact of the reduced setback. The applicant will install a new 1.8 metre (6 feet) cedar fence along the property line to create privacy. As several trees will be removed around the subject property's perimeter and on the adjacent properties to the east and south, the applicant will be providing new landscape screening on neighbouring properties to further enhance privacy as outlined below: • For the east side resident, the owner requested instant landscape screening on his property and agreed that bamboo planting is preferred as a proposed landscape mitigation. The applicant will plant 26 6.0 metre high (19 feet) black bamboo plants within reinforced concrete planters lined with high density plastic to prevent root spread. The bamboo will act as a landscape screen along the existing single family home and rear yard to provide privacy. Four western red cedar trees 3.0 metre high (10 feet) will also be planted south of the bamboo screen. • For the south east resident, the applicant proposes to plant two 3.0 metre high (10 feet) cedars in the north-east corner of the resident's property. • For the resident to the south, the applicant proposes to plant two 3.0 metre high (10 feet) cedars along the northern property line. At Council's request, the applicant will be using glazed windows to reduce the visibility from the second floor of the proposed building onto the single family home to the south. CONCLUSION: The requested variance for building setback and parking space reductions are supported by the Planning Department, as the applicant has proposed measures to ensure ongoing privacy for adjacent property owners; and has provided evidence that vehicle use is very low amongst existing Mental Health and Substance Use clients. It is therefore recommended that this application be favourably considered and the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal Development Variance Permit 2014-008-DVP.

Q MMr LANDSCAPE PLAN 16 District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: July 21, 2014 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2014-042-RZ FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W SUBJECT: First Reading Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7096-2014 11678 Burnett Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: An application has been received to rezone the subject property, located at 11678 Burnett Street, from RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) to RS -lb (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) to allow future subdivision into two lots, each with a single family dwelling and a garden suite. This file went to first reading on July 8, 2014, but was deferred until the following Committee of the Whole meeting on July 21, 2014, to discuss with the applicant the potential to increase density. Staff have since spoken to the applicant who indicated that higher density, in the form of townhouse or apartment, is not financially feasible. The applicant intends on housing family on the subject property, once subdivided. To proceed further with this application additional information is required as outlined below. RECOMMENDATIONS: That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7096-2014 be given first reading; and That the applicant provide further information as described on Schedule B of the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 - 1999, along with the information required for a Subdivision application. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owner: Kenneth Macrae Kenneth Macrae Legal Description: Lot 2, Section 17, Township 12, Plan: New Westminster Plan 12588 OCP: Existing: Urban Residential 1110 Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Surrounding Uses: North: South: East: West: Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Site Area: Access: Servicing requirement: b) Site Characteristics: RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) RS -lb (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Single Family Residential RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) Urban Residential Single Family Residential RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) Urban Residential Single Family Residential RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) Urban Residential Commercial CS -1 (Service Commercial) Low -Rise Apartment Single Family Residential Single Family Residential 0.13 ha (0.33 acres) Burnett Street Urban Standard The subject property is approximately 0.13 ha (0.33 acres) in size and is bound by single family residential properties to the north, east, and south (see Appendix A). The subject property is adjacent to the Town Centre Area. Highway commercial uses are currently located west of Burnett Street and south of Lougheed Highway adjacent to the western boundary of the subject property. There is an existing single family home located on the subject property, with some vegetation along the south and eastern property boundaries. c) Project Description: The applicant proposes to rezone the subject property from RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) to RS -1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) to permit future subdivision into two single family residential lots. The applicant has inquired with neighbors as to the potential for consolidation of the surrounding lots; however, there was no interest due to recent home upgrades. The lack of interest to consolidate indicates that a higher density development, such as townhouse or apartment, is not financially feasible for the subject property. Recent conversations with the applicant indicate the intention to build detached garden suites for both single family residential lots, as a means to increase the density. The property was purchased by the applicant with the intention to subdivide as a retirement fund. The applicant is a long-term resident who owns a small electrical contracting firm and does not have the knowledge or backing to construct a large, complex multi- family building on the site. At this time the current application has been assessed to determine its compliance with the Official Community Plan (OCP) and provide a land use assessment only. Detailed review and comments will need to be made once full application packages have been received. A more detailed analysis and a -2- further report will be required prior to second reading. Such assessment may impact proposed lot boundaries and yields, OCP designations and Bylaw particulars, and may require application for further development permits. d) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The OCP designates the property Urban Residential, and is subject to the Major Corridor infill policies of the OCP. These policies require that development be compatible with the surrounding neighbourhood, with particular attention given to site design setbacks and lot configuration with the existing pattern of development in the area. The proposed rezoning to RS -lb (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) is consistent with the Urban Residential designation and infill policies. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the property located at 11678 Burnett Street from RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) to RS -lb (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) (see Appendix B) to permit subdivision into two lots (see Appendix C). Any variations from the requirements of the proposed zone will require a Development Variance Permit application. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting is not required for this application because it is in compliance with the OCP and is less than 25 dwelling units. e) Interdepartmental Implications: In order to advance the current application, after first reading, comments and input will be sought from the various internal departments and external agencies listed below: a) Engineering Department; b) Operations Department; c) Fire Department; d) Licenses, Permits & Bylaws Department; e) Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure; and f) Canada Post. The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become necessary, as the application progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above. This application has not been forwarded to the Engineering Department for comments at this time; therefore, an evaluation of servicing requirements has not been undertaken. This evaluation will take place between first and second reading. f) Development Applications: In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879-1999 as amended: -3- 1. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule B); and 2. A Subdivision Application. The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the assessment of the proposal progresses. CONCLUSION: The development proposal is in compliance with the OCP, therefore, it is recommended that Council grant first reading subject to additional information being provided and assessed prior to second reading. The proposed layout has not been reviewed in relation to the relevant bylaws and regulations governing subdivision applications. Any subdivision layout provided is strictly preliminary and must be approved by the District of Maple Ridge's Approving Officer.

MAPLE R11)0E 9Mri.liruu�m.r urrn Kaci_ District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: June 9, 2014 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2013 -111 -AL FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W SUBJECT: Non -Farm Use Application in the Agricultural Land Reserve 23154 128 Avenue EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: An application has been received for non-farm use within the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) for a cell phone tower located at 23154 128 Avenue, the subject property. This application is made in accordance with Section 20(3) of the Agricultural Land Commission Act. The applicant has provided community notification in accordance with federal guidelines and the District of Maple Ridge Telecommunications Antenna Structure Siting Protocols. RECOMMENDATION: That Application 2013 -111 -AL be authorized to proceed to the Agricultural Land Commission. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Owner: Standard Land Company Inc. M. and N. Jasamanidse Legal Description: Lot 43, Section 20, Township 12, New Westminster District Plan 30199 OCP: Existing: Agricultural Proposed: No Change Zoning: Existing: RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) and RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Proposed: No Change Surrounding Uses North: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Designation: Estate Suburban Residential South: Use: Single Family Residential and vacant Zone: RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) and RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Designation: Agricultural East: West: Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Zone: Designation: Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Site Area: Access: b) Project Description: Vacant RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Agricultural Single Family Residential RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) Agricultural Single Family Residential and Farm Use No Change 1.62 ha (4 acres) 128 Avenue The applicant proposes to install a wireless communications facility on the subject property, that is within the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) and is split -zoned RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) and RS -2 (One Family Suburban Residential). The subject property is bordered by single family residential to the north, south and west, and vacant lots to the east and south-west. Coho Creek is located to the south of the subject property (see Appendix A). The wireless communications facility is proposed to consist of a 10 m wide by 10 m long compound area on a concrete pad, accessed by a 4 m wide gravel road from 128 Avenue, with a 45 m tall monopole, generator, shelter and propane tanks (see Appendix B). The compound would be enclosed with a chainlink fence. This application is considered a High Impact submission, based on the District's Telecommunications Antenna Structure Siting Protocols, as it's proposed in an environmentally sensitive area (within 50 m of the top of bank for Coho Creek). In accordance with federal guidelines for regulating this use, and the District of Maple Ridge Telecommunications Antenna Structures Siting Protocols, the applicant has followed appropriate procedures for notifying the community and has provided correspondence for this purpose. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan The lands are designated Agricultural in the Official Community Plan (OCP) and Policy 6-9 states that Maple Ridge supports the policies and regulations of the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC) and will strive to protect the productivity of its agricultural land. The proposed tower location is to the rear of the property, in a heavily treed area, so farming of the land is not expected to be significantly impacted. Given that cell phone towers are considered to be an essential service, Policy 4-32 in the OCP is applicable. Policy 4-32 of the OCP states that: Public Service Uses, which provide essential services such as water, sewer, electrical, telephone, or other similar services will be permitted throughout the community subject to pertinent government regulations. On this basis, this proposal is supportable in the OCP. -2 Zoning Bylaw Public Service use is defined in the Zoning Bylaw as "a use providing for the essential servicing of the Municipality with water, sewer, electrical, telephone and similar services..." Section 401 (2)(a) of the Zoning Bylaw (Permitted Uses of Land, Buildings and Structures) states: (a) A Public Service use shall be permitted in all zones. Section 403 (4)(d) of the Zoning Bylaw (Regulations for the Size, Shape and Siting of Buildings and Structures) states: (d) Freestanding lighting poles, warning devices, antennas, masts, utility poles, wires, flag poles, signs and sign structures, except as otherwise limited in other Bylaws, may be sited on any portion of a lot. Section 403 (6) of the Zoning Bylaw (Height Exceptions) states: The heights of buildings and structures permitted elsewhere in this Bylaw may be exceeded for ... towers...radio and television antennas; .... Both the OCP and the Zoning Bylaw recognize Public Service uses as a response to a community need, permit them in all zones, and exempt the antennas from restrictions regarding height, siting or setback considerations. However, it should be noted that structures associated with the antennas, such as an equipment compound for wireless facilities, would be subject to restrictions regarding height, siting, and setbacks. For the RS -3 (One Family Rural Residential) zone, the zone of the area of the property where the compound and tower are proposed to be located, the setbacks that would apply would be 7.5 m from the front and rear lot lines, and 1.5 m from the interior lot line. d) Development Considerations: A drainage channel runs east/west across the property and would need to be traversed to access the proposed tower location. Civil engineering plans, including drainage and erosion and sediment control plans, will need to be provided at the Building Permit stage to demonstrate how the proposed structures will be built so as not to negatively impact the surrounding area. An arborist report will also be required at the Building Permit stage to ensure that the development impacts are minimized. e) Intergovernmental Issues: Federal Guidelines Wireless communications facilities are under the jurisdiction of federal legislation, through Industry Canada. Industry Canada has provided guidelines for notifying the community where these uses are being proposed. Local government input regarding the placement of a telecommunication antenna structure is also sought. District Departments are to review these applications and a letter of concurrence or non -concurrence is then sent to Industry Canada. Local governments may not, however, withhold a Building Permit if the applicant has met standards for notification and has made a demonstrated attempt to satisfy community concerns that are considered relevant by the federal government. The District does not assess any submission for a telecommunication antenna structure with respect to health and radiofrequency exposure issues, or any other non -placement or non -design related issues. -3- Agricultural Land Commission The ALC asserts that a non-farm use application is required with Council endorsement prior to the application receiving ALC approval. However, local governments have limited jurisdiction over these facilities, and it appears that a denial on Council's part could be over -ruled by the federal government during a dispute resolution process. The Agricultural Land Reserve Use, Subdivision and Procedure Regulation, which is administered by the ALC, notes that this use could be permitted outright if its development footprint was kept compact, as stated in Part 2(3) Permitted Uses For Land In An Agricultural Land Reserve: The following land uses are permitted in an agricultural land reserve... : (1) (m) telecommunications equipment, buildings and installations as long as the area occupied by the equipment, buildings and installations does not exceed 100 m2 for each parcel; This regulation indicates that a telecommunications facility could be permitted outright if its total footprint remained within 100m2 in area. However, in a telephone conversation with an ALC representative, it was confirmed that the ALC would prefer to have some input into the siting of these uses so as to minimize their agricultural impacts. It was also suggested that the cumulative total footprint (access, equipment compound, guy wires) of these uses generally exceeds this prescribed minimum. Therefore, the ALC's preference is that these proposals be forwarded as an application. This proposal shows a development footprint of about 100m2, plus approximately 430m2 for access. f) Citizen/Customer Implications: At the proposed location, the applicant has provided consultation to affected property owners within a radius of 300m. A summary of the correspondence received through the public consultation was provided to the District of Maple Ridge. Surrounding neighbours are concerned that the cell phone tower will impact their property value, will be unattractive to look at and is proposed to be located adjacent to future residential use. The subject property is located within the ALR, is designated Agricultural and this designation is not expected to change. The current designation for the surrounding properties is Agricultural; however most of these properties have been removed from the ALR and the future designation is unknown. This adjacent area is currently under review through the Commercial/Industrial strategy and Council directed that the area be evaluated to determine it feasibility for employment use. g) Interdepartmental Implications: The Licences, Permits, and Bylaws Department will be involved at the Building Permit stage. h) Alternatives: Council has the option of not authorizing this application to proceed to the ALC, in which case the applicant would have the option of ensuring the development proposal size remained within the 100 m2 maximum footprint as prescribed in the Agricultural Land Reserve Use, Subdivision and Procedure Regulation or appealing to the federal government to intervene in a dispute resolution process. -4- CONCLUSION: This application for a non-farm use complies with the direction as given by the ALC for the installation of wireless telephone facilities. Community notification has been provided, and a summary of the comments were provided to the District of Maple Ridge. Council is recommended to authorize forwarding this application to the ALC for their consideration.

A MAPLE RIDGE British Co lumb la District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: July 21, 2014 and Members of Council FILE NO: 11-5255-40-102 FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W SUBJECT: Award of Contract ITT-EN14-29: 104 Avenue Road and Drainage Improvements (244 Street - 245 Street) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Over the past number of years Council has placed a strong emphasis on improving walkability throughout the District. Through Business Planning, Council has made a strong commitment to improving safety for pedestrians and in particular school children. 104 Avenue is a street that has been identified for walkability improvements and is included in the approved capital plan. The improvements to 104 Avenue are being constructed through development either directly in association with development applications or indirectly through Development Cost Charges (DCCs). The 104 Avenue Road and Drainage Improvements (244 Street - 245 Street) project is in the District's approved Capital Plan and consists of road widening, concrete curb and gutter, street lighting, storm drainage and retaining walls. A significant component of the project is the culvert replacement and extension at the narrow section where Spencer Creek crosses 104 Avenue. In addition the project includes the environmental compensation works required for the 240 Street project approved by Council in May, 2014. This includes the construction of fish ladders and the creation of fish habitat to enhance Spencer Creek. The 104 Avenue corridor is identified as Trans Canada Equestrian Trail. A gravel path will also be constructed behind the concrete sidewalk on the north side of 104 Avenue to tie in the existing horse trail on either end of the project. The project is anticipated to commence on August 5, 2014 and be completed in approximately 12 weeks. The culvert replacement on Spencer Creek at 104 Avenue will be in place before school commences in September 2014. The environmental works on Spencer Creek will be done in Sept. 2014. In order to replace the culvert, there will be a full road closure for the month of August after which it is anticipated that single lane alternating traffic will be maintained on 104 Avenue during working hours, and two lanes will be maintained after working hours and during peak school hours (AM and PM). The project was tendered on June 17, 2014 and closed on July 8, 2014. The lowest acceptable tender price was submitted by King Hoe Excavating Ltd. of $1,114,072.80 excluding taxes. The Financial Plan identifies the project being funded through DCC's (98 %). To fully fund the project including an appropriate contingency an additional $142,000 is required. The additional amount will also be funded primarily through DCCs. Council approval to award the contract is required for the work to proceed. 1112 RECOMMENDATION: THAT Contract ITT-EN14-29, 104 Avenue Road and Drainage Improvements, be awarded to King Hoe Excavating Ltd. in the amount of $1,114,072.80 excluding taxes; and THAT a contract contingency of 10% or $114,000 be approved to address additional contract items and the financial plan be amended to increase project funding by $142,000; and THAT the Corporate Officer be authorized to execute the contract. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Walkability throughout the District continues to be a primary focus of Council. Successive business plans have identified key projects that strive to eliminate gaps in key pedestrian areas. One such street is 104 Avenue that links 240 Street to Samuel Robertson Technical school, Albion Park, the SPCA building and the growing residential community along Jackson Road. The 104 Avenue Road and Drainage Improvements (244 Street - 245 Street) project is in the District's approved Capital Plan and consists of road widening, concrete curb and gutter, street lighting, storm drainage and retaining walls. A significant component of the project is the culvert replacement and extension at the narrow section where Spencer Creek crosses 104 Avenue. In addition the project includes the environmental compensation works required for the 240 Street project approved by Council in May, 2014. This includes the construction of fish ladders and the creation of fish habitat to enhance Spencer Creek. The 104 Avenue corridor is identified as Trans Canada Equestrian Trail. A gravel path will also be constructed behind the concrete sidewalk on the north side of 104 Avenue to tie in the existing horse trail on either end of the project. The 104 Avenue drainage improvements or in -stream works on Spencer Creek will be constructed in the 2014 Fisheries window (August 1 to September 15) while the road improvements including the road widening, concrete sidewalks, multi -use path, will proceed after the completion of the box culvert replacement and is anticipated to be completed in October of 2014. Tender Evaluation: The contract for the 104 Avenue Road and Drainage Improvements Project was tendered on June 17, 2014. The tender closed on July 8, 2014 and four compliant tenders were received ranging from $1,114,072.80 to $1,340,588.20. The following four tenders received are listed in order from lowest to highest price: King Hoe Excavating Ltd. Mainland Civil Works Inc. TAG Construction Ltd. Kan -Arm Contracting Ltd. Tender Price (excluding taxes) $1,114,072.80 $1,237,515.00 $1,285,046.50 $1,340,588.20 A detailed analysis confirmed that the King Hoe Excavating Ltd. tender is compliant with tender requirements and the contractor is suitably qualified for the works. b) Desired Outcome: The desired outcomes include: • To improve the walkability and safety for pedestrians in the area, • To provide the environment compensation required for the project work on 240 Street, and • To connect the Trans Canada Equestrian Trail. c) Strategic Alignment: The 104 Avenue Road and Drainage Improvements Project supports the following key strategies identified in the District's Strategic Plan: • Maintain and enhance a multi -modal transportation system within Maple Ridge; • To provide citizens with safe, efficient alternatives for the movement of individuals and goods; and • Promote alternative modes (pedestrian, bike, public transit) of travel to reduce reliance on the automobile. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: The estimated construction for the 104 Avenue Road and Drainage Improvements is approximately 12 weeks starting on August 5, 2014. A full road closure on 104 Avenue at Spencer Creek is only allowed for the month of August. Once school starts in September, the Contractor is required to maintain two lanes of traffic during peak school drop-off and pick-up times. Otherwise single lane alternating traffic will be maintained at all times during construction and flag persons will be in attendance during working hours. Typically, there will be single lane alternating traffic on 104 Avenue from 9:OOam to 3:OOpm only. Two-lane traffic will be maintained after working hours. Upon approval of the contract a communication strategy will be implemented to keep all stakeholders fully informed. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: The Financial Plan identifies the project being funded through DCC's (98 %) with a small assist from General Revenue. To fully fund the project including an appropriate contingency an additional $142,000 is required. The additional amount will also be largely funded through DCCs $138,000 with a minor amount of $4,000 from general surplus. As with all projects of this nature the contingency will only be used to fund unanticipated occurrences. CONCLUSIONS: This project will complete a key section of 104 Avenue to enhance walkability and safety in the neighbourhood. The tender price of $1,114,072.80 excluding taxes by King Hoe Excavating Ltd. for the 104 Avenue Road and Drainage Improvements is the lowest compliant tendered price. It is recommended that Council approve the award of the contract to King Hoe Excavating Ltd. It is also recommended that the financial plan be amended to increase project funding by $142,000 to fully fund the project including an appropriate contingency amount.

SUBJECT: Maple Ridge Revitalization Tax Exemption Program Amending Bylaw No. 7066-2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: In January 2014, BC Assessment released the preliminary property assessment roll for the 2014 property tax year. This tax year includes, for the first time, the apportionment of tax exemptions relating to the Town Centre Investment Incentives Program (TCIIP) to strata units. BC Assessment uses a default apportionment method that is inconsistent with the objectives of the TCIIP program. District staff were able to have BC Assessment revise the apportionments prior to the issuance of the final assessment roll. A bylaw amendment is necessary to ensure the appropriate apportionment in future. RECOMMENDATION: That Maple Ridge Revitalization Tax Exemption Program Amending Bylaw No. 7066-2014 be given first, second and third readings. DISCUSSION: On May 27, 2013, Council passed a resolution directing that the commercial component of the Town Centre Investment Incentive Program (TCIIP) be extended for one year, while allowing the residential component to expire as of December 30, 2013. The property tax exemption component of this extension was enabled through Maple Ridge Revitalization Tax Exemption Program Bylaw No. 7010- 2013 which was adopted by Council on December 10, 2013. In January 2014, BC Assessment released the preliminary property assessment roll for the 2014 property tax year. This tax year includes, for the first time, the apportionment of tax exemptions relating to the Town Centre Investment Incentives Program (TCIIP) to strata units. BC Assessment uses a default apportionment method that is inconsistent with the objectives of the TCIIP program. District staff were able to have BC Assessment revise the apportionments prior to the issuance of the final assessment roll. A bylaw amendment is necessary to ensure the appropriate apportionment in future. In addition, the bylaw amendment includes some housekeeping items to enhance clarity. 1131 CONCLUSIONS: It is recommended that the tax exemption program bylaw be amended to ensure apportionment of exemptions among strata units is consistent with program objectives, and to provide clarity for the apportionment of exemptions for commercial space in mixed use buildings.

SUBJECT: PROPOSED MAPLE RIDGE PARKS BYLAW - No. 7085-2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The attached report was reviewed by the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission at its meeting of July 10, 2014. The Commission endorsed the bylaw and recommendation to forward to Maple Ridge Council for consideration. Proposed changes to this bylaw include: Formatting The formatting of the bylaw was changed to be consistent with other municipal bylaws as requested by Ms. Holitzki, Director of Licenses, Permits and Bylaws, and by the Districts Legal Counsel. Part 4.1 The definitions section of the bylaw was significantly expanded to provide an enhanced level of detail on each of the regulations contained in the Parks Bylaw. Part 5.1 The "Duty of Administration and Enforcement" was added on the advice of Legal Counsel to indicate that the bylaw does not impose a duty on The District of Maple Ridge to enforce provisions contained in the bylaw. Part 8.1.23 This section was added to the bylaw to regulate the possession or consumption of alcoholic beverages without valid and legally required permits. Part 8.1.24 This section was added to restrict the use of high speed projectiles in parks including golf, war games, radio controlled aircraft or cars, unless specifically authorized by a special event permit. Part 8.1.25 This section was added to the bylaw to restrict overnight camping in parks without a special event permit. Part 8.1.28 This section was added to regulate interfering or obstructing any employees or contractors of the District in the performance of their duty. Part 8.1.29 This section was added to restrict any person from using any device in a manner that disturbs the enjoyment of the park by other park patrons. Part 9 The Updated Traffic control regulations were added to authorize staff to remove or impound vehicles or structures that are parked or stored in a park contrary to this 1151 RECOMMENDATION: That Maple Ridge Parks and Recreation Facilities Regulation Bylaw No. 7085-2014 be given first, second and third readings.

(Jim) Rule Chief Administrative Officer :ik Attachment: PLS Commission Report dated July 10, 2014 bylaw, and also restricts areas within parks where a vehicle or conveyance may be driven. Part 10 Updated animal control regulations were added to prohibit dogs from being on sports fields, children's playgrounds, sport courts and water play parks. This section also required dogs to be on leash in all park areas, except those designated as off leash. Part 12 Loss of access rights was added to the bylaw to formalize the practice of banning letters being issued to individuals who contravene the provisions of this bylaw. Part 13 Commercial services regulations have been updated to control commercial activity in a park or recreation facility without a permit or written authorization. Part 14 This section was added to regulate park activities and events in parks that require special event permit regulation as well as conformance of the conditions of the permit such as insurance, etc. RECOMMENDATION: That Maple Ridge Parks and Recreation Facilities Regulation Bylaw No. 7085-2014 be given first, second and third readings. "Original signed by Kelly Swift" Approved by: Kelly Swift, General Manager, Community Development Parks & Recreation Services "Original signed by Paul Gill" FOR Concurrence: J.L. (Jim) Rule Chief Administrative Officer :ik Attachment: PLS Commission Report dated July 10, 2014 Maple Ridge Pitt Meadows PARKS & LEISURE SERVICES Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission Report REGULAR MEETING JULY 10, 2014 SUBJECT: PROPOSED MAPLE RIDGE AND PITT MEADOWS PARKS BYLAWS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Parks & Leisure Services (PLS) staff have been working directly with staff of both the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Bylaws departments to update the parks bylaws. Due to the significant number of proposed changes it is the recommendation of staff in both Parks and Bylaws that the existing parks bylaws be repealed in their entirety and, that the attached proposed bylaws be adopted. RECOMMENDATION: That the proposed Maple Ridge Parks and Recreation Facilities Regulation Bylaw No. 7085-2014 and the City of Pitt Meadows Parks and Community Facilities Regulations Bylaw No. 2651,2014 attached to the report dated July 10, 2014 be endorsed and forwarded to Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Councils for their respective consideration and adoption. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: The Pitt Meadows bylaws department staff met with several members of the PLS staff to review the current parks bylaws. Pitt Meadows bylaws staff then compiled the information received and developed the attached proposed Pitt Meadows parks bylaw. PLS staff reviewed the Maple Ridge bylaws with the support of the Maple Ridge bylaws department staff and incorporated the new sections proposed by PLS staff which was already included in the Pitt Meadows bylaws. Each of the bylaws have also been reviewed by legal council, who have had made several suggestions regarding text and layout. It is important to note that each of the bylaws are still unique to each community, however some sections such as banning letters, and animal control (primarily dogs) will be the same in each bylaw, which is considered necessary to ensure consistency of enforcement as PLS staff will also be enforcing these bylaws (when required). The adoption of the attached bylaws will assist PLS and bylaws staff in both communities to respond effectively to parks related issues in a timely manner, especially when complaints are received or infractions are observed by staff. This does not necessarily mean that tickets will be issued for all infractions; however it can be a very valuable tool for staff when encouraging compliance, or when dealing with repeat offenders. b) Desired Outcome: The proposed bylaws will allow parks and bylaws staff to provide an enhanced level of customer service to parks patrons and residents who report situations that detract from the enjoyment of other park users. It is anticipated that in most cases staff will be responding to calls regarding dogs being off leash or being in areas where they are not permitted. \\m r.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2014\2014-07- 21_COW\CDPR\PLSC_Pro posed_Pa rks_Bylaws.doc c) Strategic Alignment: The proposed bylaws are consistent with previous parks bylaws, although they have been updated to address current and emerging issues in parks. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: Understandably there will be some residents who may not necessarily support the implementation of some of the new sections of the bylaw, however these sections are considered to be essential for the enjoyment of the majority of parks patrons in each community. On a positive note, thanks to the support from Municipal Councils in both communities, there are now several opportunities for staff to offer information to residents who prefer to walk their dogs off leash, when they are encountered, rather than just advising that it is not permitted to have their dogs off leash in a park. It is also important to note that families are still very welcome to bring their family pets to the park but there will be restrictions on some of the areas that they can go, so that they are not detracting from the enjoyment of other park patrons, or perhaps those individuals who are afraid of dogs. Some portions of parks may also be restricted for dogs due to hygiene issues associated with dog waste. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: It is not anticipated that there will be increased costs associated with parks bylaws enforcement as additional patrols will not necessarily be planned unless there are problem areas, in which case, an enhanced presence will be incorporated into other routine maintenance schedules. CONCLUSIONS: PLS staff is very aware that customer service is a significant aspect of raising the levels of awareness of parks patrons on how they can enjoy our parks and facilities while respecting the needs of others. PLS staff will be provided training by the Bylaws department staff to ensure that park patrons, visitors and residents are treated in a fair and consistent manner in this regard. `Original signed by David Boag' Prepared by: David Boag Director, Parks and Facilities `Original signed by Wendy McCormick, Acting General Manager' Approved By: Kelly Swift General Manager, Community Development Parks & Recreation Services :db Attachments: Pitt Meadows Parks and Community Facilities Regulations Bylaw No. 2651,2014 Maple Ridge Parks and Recreation Facilities Regulation Bylaw No. 7085-2014 \\m r.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2014\2014-07- 21_COW\CDPR\PLSC_Pro posed_Pa rks_Bylaws.doc District of Maple Ridge Maple Ridge Parks and Recreation Facilities Regulation Bylaw No. 7085-2014 Effective Date: District of Maple Ridge Maple Ridge Parks and Recreation Facilities Regulation Bylaw No.7085-2014 Table of Contents Part 1 Citation 2 Part 2 Severability 2 Part 3 Previous Bylaw Repeal 2 Part 4 Definitions 3 Part 5 Duty of Administration and Enforcement 5 Part 6 Delegation of Powers 5 Part 7 Park Hours 5 Part 8 General Park and Recreation Facility Prohibitions 5 Part 9 Traffic in Parks 8 Part 10 Animals in Parks 8 Part 11 Sports Grounds 9 Part 12 Loss of Access Rights 9 Part 13 Commercial Services and Activities 9 Part 14 Special Event Permits 10 Part 15 Offences and Penalty 10 List of Schedules: Schedule A Banning Notice 11 Schedule B Special Event Permit 12 District of Maple Ridge Maple Ridge Parks and Recreation Facilities Regulation Bylaw No.7085-2014 A bylaw to regulate park property and recreational facilities in the District of Maple Ridge WHEREAS subsection 8(3) of the Community Charter authorizes the Council of the District of Maple Ridge to adopt bylaws to, regulate, prohibit and impose requirements in relation to municipal services and public places; AND WHEREAS subsection 154(1) of the Community Charter authorizes the Council of the District of Maple Ridge to adopt bylaws to delegate its powers, duties and functions to officers or employees of the municipality; AND WHEREAS; Council deems it necessary and desirable that it exercise these authorities to establish regulations governing the management of property intended for recreation and community uses and to delegate certain powers to staff regarding the use of Parks and Recreation Facilities conduct therein: NOW THEREFORE, the Council of the Corporation of the District of Maple Ridge enacts as follows: Part I Citation 1.1 This Bylaw may be cited as the Maple Ridge Parks and Recreation Facilities Regulations Bylaw No.7085-2014 Part 2 Severability 2.1 If a portion of this bylaw is held invalid by a Court of competent jurisdiction, then the invalid portion must be severed and the remainder of this bylaw is deemed to have been adopted without the severed section, subsequent, paragraph, subparagraph, clause or phrase.

SUBJECT: 224 STREET AND BROWN AVENUE NEIGHBOURHOOD PARK EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The attached report was reviewed by the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission at its meeting of July 10, 2014. The Commission endorsed the concept plan and recommendation to forward to Maple Ridge Council for consideration. RECOMMENDATION: That the neighbourhood concept plan which includes walkways, benches and minor landscape improvements at 224 Street and Brown Avenue be approved. "Original signed by Wendy McCormick, Acting General Manager" Prepared by: Kelly Swift, General Manager, Community Development, Parks & Recreation Services "Original signed by Jim Rule" Concurrence: J.L. (Jim) Rule Chief Administrative Officer :ik Attachment: PLS Commission Report dated July 10, 2014 1152 Maple Ridge Pitt Meadows PARKS & LEISURE SERVICES Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission Report REGULAR MEETING July 10, 2014 SUBJECT: 224 STREET AND BROWN AVENUE NEIGHBOURHOOD PARK (Without a Dog Off -Leash Area) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Parks and Leisure Services (PLS) has been approached by Golden Ears Seniors Society (GESS) who indicated that they would like to donate funds for a Dog Off -Leash Area (DOLA) for small dogs, as well as a neighborhood meeting spot for residents in the area of 224 Street and Brown Avenue. RECOMMENDATION: That the neighbourhood concept plan which includes walkways, benches and minor landscape improvements at 224 Street and Brown Avenue attached to the report dated July 10, 2014 be endorsed and forwarded to Maple Ridge Council for approval. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context The residents in the buildings close to 224 Street and Brown Avenue were invited to a Neighbourhood Park Information Meeting on June 16, 2014. The information meeting was advertised in the local newspaper, posted on the PLS website and invitations were mailed to residents living in the building directly across the street from the proposed park. Notices of the meeting were also posted in the public areas of six nearby multi -unit residential buildings advising other residents of the meeting as well as an invitation to participate in the park planning process. Parks staff had developed a draft concept plan for discussion purposes that included a small dog off leash area on a portion of the park site, as well as park furnishings such as benches and garbage receptacles. The plan also suggested that some of the existing trees that are reportedly a concern for some nearby residents could be removed and replaced with more suitable tree species. The Neighborhood Park Information meeting was held from 4.00-7:00 pm on June 16, 2014 at the Ridge Meadows Seniors Society with the assistance of Mr. Fred Armstrong who is a representative of the GESS. A total of eighteen residents attended the meeting, however only seven attendees provided written comments on the proposed dog park area and park improvements. The attendees were also invited to participate in a "Dotmocracy exercise" by applying their vote next to the design elements they personally favoured for the site (attached). Ave of the seven respondents expressed an interest in a small fenced dog off leash area, however only three of these comment forms appear to be from the neighboring condominium building. The comment received appear to support having park benches and landscaped garden areas to enjoy. Other amenities such as waste bins, bags and water fountains were also considered to be important for this project. Staff is not confident at this time that there is enough support for an off leash park, due to the lack of input received through this public meeting. \\m r.corp\docs\CD PR -Adm in\01-Admin\0540-Cou nci l -Com m ittees\20-PLSC\02-Agendas\Regular\2014\2014-07- 10\PLSC_224_Brown_N H_Pk_2014-07-10. doc Staff and the representative of the Golden Ears Seniors Society have agreed that the proposed off leash portion of this project could be revisited again in the future, if there is an interest from the residents in this area. The only other concern reported was the potential risk posed by the nearby 4 -way stop intersection and the potential for more noise in the area. b) Desired Outcome. The desired outcome is the development of a small neighborhood park with some minor landscaping and some additional park furnishings to create a meeting place for local area residents. This is also considered to be a resting point for residents walking back to their homes after shopping at the grocery stores in the town center area. c) Business Plan/Financial Implications: The proposed funding from the Golden Ears Seniors Society is for up to $65,000. The Districts Community Builders have also expressed an interest in volunteering on this project assisting with some of the landscaping in this park. The design work for this park can be accomplished by Parks staff at a minimal cost (in kind contribution) to the District of Maple Ridge and its citizens to build the park. CONCLUSIONS: Staff recommends that the Commission endorse the concept plan, excluding the proposed Dog Off - Leash Area for small dogs, on the park site at 224 Street and Brown Avenue and forward the concept plan to Maple Ridge Council for approval to proceed with the project. The work being proposed at this time will not preclude the addition of a small Dog off Leash Park in the future if there is a demand for this type of amenity.

SUBJECT: Alouette Home Start Society Request for Advocacy Support for Iron Horse Youth Safe House Funding EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: At the July 2, 2014 Social Planning Advisory Committee (SPAC) meeting, the Alouette Home Start Society (AHSS) made a request for additional support from District of Maple Ridge to advocate for the continued funding of the Iron Horse Youth Safe House (IHYSH). Council had previously sent a letter to the Minister of Employment and Social Development Canada regarding the change of the criteria for Homelessness Partnering Strategy (HPS) funding and the impact on the community. AHSS has since received transitional HPS funding to operate the IHYSH until the end of September. Since its inception, IHYSH has been funded primarily by federal dollars provided through the HPS funding program. Given the new terms and conditions for HPS funding that will begin October 1, 2014, it is unlikely that Iron Horse will be eligible to access the level of HPS funding that it will need to operate. All HPS contracts currently funded, including IHYSH, come to an end in three months. Although, the Regional Steering Committee on Homelessness (RSCH) Community Plan recognizes that Youth Safe Houses are an essential service, it is unlikely that Safe Houses will receive HPS funding under the new criteria. As IHYSH has currently no alternate source of funding SPAC is recommending that Council advocate for an extension of the current HPS funding to March 31, 2015. The extension of the HPS funding, will allow AHSS the necessary time needed to explore partnerships and alternate funding sources. AHSS has indicated that a high percentage of youth accessing the safe house have a connection to the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD). As a result, SPAC is also recommending that Council consider advocating for MCFD contribution to the funding of the safe house. RECOMMENDATIONS: That a joint letter with the Social Planning Advisory Committee (SPAC) be sent to Member of Parliament Randy Kamp and the Regional Steering Committee on Homelessness requesting that Alouette Home Start Society be given an extension of Homelessness Partnering Strategy (HPS) funding to operate until March 31, 2015 to allow time for alternate funding partnerships to be developed if HPS funding is not renewed. And, that a joint letter with the Social Planning Advisory Committee be sent to Minister Cadieux requesting that the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD) contribute funding for the operation of the Iron Horse Youth Safe House. Page 1 of 3 1153 a) Background Context: Since 2005, the IHYSH has provided safety, shelter and support for over 1,000 homeless youth. About one third of the youth who have stayed in the Safe House are from Maple Ridge. IHYSH also provides shelter and supports for youth from surrounding communities, and is well regarded by MCFD social workers and other service providers across the region. Homeless youth aged 13 to 18 are welcomed and supported for up to 30 days. During their stay, staff works with youth and service providers to find secure and appropriate housing as well as to connect youth to necessary services or supports. IHYSH allows youth to stay in or close to their own communities so that they can continue to attend school or employment, and connect or reconnect with their support networks. The great majority of the youth who stay at Iron Horse are connected to MCFD. Social workers directly refer clients to the shelter. In 2010-2011, 85% of youth who were provided service were connected to the Ministry, in 2012 and 2013 75% and 78% respectively were connected to the Ministry. While other youth safe houses in Metro Vancouver are fully or partially funded by MCFD, the IHYSH does not, and has never, received financial support from the Ministry, beyond an initial grant of $10,000 when it first opened. It would be in the best interest of the community for MCFD to review the possibility of funding the IHYSH. These funding discussions would need to take place at local, regional and provincial levels. The recommendation in this report is that Council advocate for these discussions to begin by sending a joint letter with SPAC to the MCFD Minister, the Honorable Stephanie Cadieux. The need for and the success of IHYSH is well documented. Without access to appropriate shelter, youth are particularly vulnerable and significantly at risk of a variety of social ills. If the funding is not continued and other resources are not found, youth in our community who are currently homeless, who do not have stable housing, who require assistance in re -connecting with family or supports, or are in difficult circumstances requiring them to re -locate, will not have access to the unique supports and services that IHYSH provides. The negative impact of homelessness on the development of youth is significant. The research indicates that it can impact their ability to function across their lifespan. Timely access to this type of service is critical for supporting youth in their development into healthy adults. b) Desired Outcome: That Council advocate on behalf of AHSS to ensure that HPS funding for the IHYSH continues until March 2015. In addition, that Council advocate to the provincial Ministry of Children and Family Development to contribute to the operation of the IHYSH. This advocacy work would be on behalf of the community and focused on ensuring that youth who are homeless have access to appropriate shelter and support in our community. c) Strategic Alignment: This recommendation aligns with safe and livable communities. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: The IHYSH will close if the HPS funding is not renewed. If the funding is not extended AHSS will not have adequate time to develop new partnerships and funding sources. With no Youth Safe House there will be a lack of appropriate supports and services for youth in the community and there will be additional strain on existing services. Page 2 of 3 e) Interdepartmental Implications: The RCMP, Bylaws and Youth Services could be impacted by the loss of this service in the community. The Greg Moore Youth Centre is the only youth serving agency open in the evening where youth can drop in and be connected to resources when needed. Without the resource of the IHYSH, staff will need to direct youth to MCFD in New Westminster. If youth are on the streets this could impact calls for service for both the RCMP and Bylaws. CONCLUSIONS: Youth homelessness is a complex issue. A variety of supports and services are necessary to create opportunities for successful outcomes for youth who are homeless. Although, it requires a significant investment of resources, the local Safe House model has proven to be successful. All youth need to feel safe and supported in order to develop into healthy adults. Youth who find themselves homeless or at risk of homelessness are particularly in need of safe and secure options in order to protect their ability to grow and develop into healthy adults. Advocating for services that protect youth in the community is an investment in both individual and population health.

It is only through a multi -sectorial approach that the provision of affordable and adequate housing and the issue of homelessness can be addressed The District of Maple Ridge has a very active Housing Planning Table that works collaboratively with local service providers and the Regional Steering Committee on Homelessness. The Housing Planning Table is part of a broader network of social service providers, ministries and government representatives called the Maple Ridge Pitt Meadows Katzie Community Network. The Community Network is represented on the District of Maple Ridge s Social Planning Advisory Committee which provides these agencies an opportunity to provide input on municipal planning regarding the social wellness of the community, and the opportunity to share community concerns with Council. At the March 5, 2014, SPAC (Social Planning Advisory Committee) meeting, the Homelessness Partnering Strategy (HPS) funding for Alouette Home Start Society (AHSS) Outreach and the Iron Horse Youth Safe House (IHYSH) programs were discussed. The discussion centered on three points:. • The first point was that there was a lack of timely communication about the transitional funding process and a short application timeline. The lack of information caused a great deal of distress for AHSS, their staff and clients. Additionally, once Information about the application was sent out the turnaround time was very short • The second point discussed was with regards to the shift in the HPS funding criteria to a 'Housing First' focus which means that currently funded local programs may not continue to receive funding. This will significantly impact the continuum of services that the community has been working to develop which have been designed to integrate with the network of services available within our community. This model has been highly successful and the loss of these services will impact the communities' ability to support citizens towards independence. • The third point discussed was that a "Housing First' model requires a great deal of services and supports to ensure success There are different and varying capacities across the region District of Maple Ridge 11995 Haney Place, Maple Ridge, British Columbia V2X 6A9 CANADA Telephone: 604-463-5221 • Fax: 604-467-7329 • Email: enquiries@mapleridge.ca • www,mapleridge.ca ./2 DISTRICT OF MAPLE RIDGE 2 - MAY 30, 2014 • to supply these services and supports. The access to housing stock and rental supplements is also inconsistent across the region. As a result, communities across Metro Vancouver have varying degrees of capacity to implement "Housing First" projects, and our concern is that moving directly to a "Housing First model is not feasible for all communities. Housing and homelessness are of major concern to Maple Ridge Council, and as such, we have taken the time to forward the concerns noted above. As we move forward to engage our community in planning for the "Housing First" model, it is important to ensure that we work together and that we lessen the impact of changing funding criteria and the subsequent loss of resources on service providers and their clients. Maple Ridge is committed to supporting local service providers as well as the Regional, Provincial and Federal Governments to address homelessness to access the services and supports needed to effectively house our citizens. I trust that you will take this feedback as a constructive effort of input towards planning processes and program criteria that will lead to successful outcomes for all communities struggling with these challenges. rely, Ernie Daykin Mayor • cc Maple Ridge Council Jim Rule, Chief Administrative Officer, District of Maple Ridge Frank Quinn, General Manager Public Works & Development, District of Maple Ridge Paul Gill, General Manager Corporate & Finance, District of Maple Ridge Kelly Swift, General Manager Community Development Parks & Recreation, District of Maple Ridge Randy Kamp Member of Parliament, Pitt Meadows -Maple Ridge -Mission Theresa Harding, Manager, Regional Steering Committee on Homelessness Alouette Home Start Society June 30, 2014 101-22207 Brown Ave, Maple Ridge BC, V2X 9B5 Mr. Steven Lamothe, Chair Social Planning Advisory Council, D istrict of Maple Ridge D ear Mr. Lamothe,` G iven the important services that the Iron Horse Youth Safe House provides in Maple Ridge, it is important to let the community know that, without a focused effort of intervention and advocacy, Iron Horse will likely need to cease operations as a youth safe house on September 30, 2014. Because of the essential service that Iron Horse provides to some of Maple Ridge's most vulnerable citizens, AHSS is asking SPAC to help with finding a way to keep Iron Horse o perational, or mitigate the devastating consequences of its loss. Iron Horse has been funded almost completely by federal dollars, currently through the Homelessness Partnering Strategy, since it opened in the spring of 2005. Given the terms and conditions of an anticipated Call for Proposals for HPS funding that will begin October 1, 2014, it is unlikely that Iron Horse will be able to access the level of HPS funding that it will need to o perate. In its nine years of service, Iron Horse has provided safely, shelter and support to homeless youth in over in well over 1000 instances. About one third of the youth who have stayed there are from Maple Ridge, and Maple Ridge youth stay have been in residence for about half of the bed -nights. Iron Horse also shelters youth from surrounding communities, and is well regarded by MCFD social workers and other service providers across the region. Homeless youth aged 13 to 18 are welcomed and supported for up to 30 days while staff work diligently with the youth and service providers to find them secure and appropriate housing. Iron Horse allows youth to stay in or close to their own communities, continue to attend school or employment, and connect or reconnect with their support networks. The great majority of the youth who stay at Iron Horse are connected to MCFD (Ministry of Children and Families). While other youth safe houses in Metro are fully or partially funded by MCFD, and in spite of the fact that MCFD teams and their youthful clients in this and n eighbouring communities benefit enormously from the services provided by Iron Horse, the Maple Ridge safe house does not, and has never received financial support from MCFD beyond an initial grant of $10,000 when it first opened. MCFD managers at the local level do not have the resources to help fund Iron Horse It is important that persons who have the authority to approve funds be part of a discussion on how MCFD can step up and make a financial contribution toward services that they need and use. We hope that SPAC will encourage council to assist with facilitating a high level discussion with MCFD to help accomplish this end (1 I�. The rollout of the current round of HPS funding has been plagued by delays and missed deadlines, leaving service providers in an information vacuum. We are grateful to Social Planning and to Council for following up on issues of timing and lack of information in this process recently in a letter to RSCH and to Randy Kamp. We expected a Call for Proposals for HPS funding in May for contracts scheduled to begin October 1, 2014. At this time, there is no clear information about when we can expect the CFP. All HPS contracts currently funded, including Iron Horse, come to an end in three short months. Given that Youth Safe Houses are recognized as an essential service in the RSCH Community Plan, and given that Iron Horse has no alternate source of funding in the short term, we hope that SPAC will encourage council to advocate for an extension of Iron Horse s current HPS funding to March 31, 2015 if the terms and conditions of the anticipated HPS Call for Proposals do not allow Iron Horse to keep operating under a new contract. This will allow the necessary time to secure needed funding from provincial and other sources. This community came together to look at homelessness in Maple Ridge more than a dozen years ago. It saw the need for a youth safe house and made it happen. The municipality has been supportive every step of the way, and we are so grateful for that support. We hope that, if the right persons can be accessed and available resources can be harnessed, there may be a way to keep Iron Horse operational. Thank you for your consideration of this request.

SUBJECT: MAPLE RIDGE TENNIS CLUB FUNDING REQUEST EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The attached report was reviewed by the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission (The Commission) at its meeting of July 10, 2014. The Commission endorsed that a recommendation be forwarded to Maple Ridge Council to consider the request received from the Maple Ridge Rotary Tennis Club (Tennis Club) for a grant or loan in the amount of $30,000 toward the completion of the clubhouse project at the Thomas Haney Tennis Courts. RECOMMENDATION: That the request from the Maple Ridge Rotary Tennis Club for a grant or loan in the amount of $30,000 toward the completion of their clubhouse project at the Thomas Haney Tennis Courts be referred to staff to identify a potential funding source and to request more detailed information on the size, form and placement of the proposed building. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Two reports on this subject have come before Commission in the past year. The original report outlines a request from the Tennis Club for a license to occupy or lease land adjacent to the Thomas Haney Tennis Courts to locate a portable clubhouse building. This request was forwarded to Council by Commission in September, 2013, and Council approved it. A follow-up report was prepared when staff received correspondence from the Tennis Club regarding an award of a $30,000 grant from Meadow Ridge Rotary Club toward the development of the clubhouse building. This brings available funding for this project to $60,000 as the Tennis Club has also successfully fundraised $30,000 to date. However, a requirement of the Rotary grant is that the clubhouse project be completed by December 31, 2014. This limits time available for the Tennis Club to complete their fundraising to achieve their total project cost which they have estimated to be $90,000. Therefore, the Tennis Club has requested Council's support in the form of either a grant or a loan for $30,000 so that they can proceed within the time restriction imposed by the grant. Commission approved this request to come forward to Council to indicate their support, but did not specify a preference for either a grant or a loan and instead, has left this for Council to determine if Council wishes to support this request. 1154 b) Desired Outcome: The desired outcome is for Council to give staff direction on whether Council wishes to support the request for either a grant or loan, and if so, to direct staff to bring back a report outlining a funding source as well as more detailed building plans for the proposed building at the earliest opportunity, so that the clubhouse can be completed by the deadline of December 31, 2014. c) Strategic Alignment: The approval in principle that was previously granted to the Tennis Club was intended to provide the ability to increase membership and host larger regional tennis tournaments in Maple Ridge. This request is consistent with the Commission's desire to promote healthy, active living opportunities for our citizens, as well as being a potential economic driver for our community when tournaments are hosted in Maple Ridge. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: The Thomas Haney Tennis Courts are highly used by the Tennis Club which is a non-profit group that welcomes new members of all ages. The addition of a clubhouse would enhance the services on-site for their members and provide the ability to host major tournaments. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: Since this request was not anticipated in the 2014 budget, there is no planned funding source. Establishing a loan for the requested amount would likely be easier to accommodate, however a funding source would need to be identified for this option as well. f) Alternatives: In the event that an appropriate funding source could not be identified, Council could choose to respectfully decline this request. CONCLUSIONS: The clubhouse project at the Thomas Haney Tennis Courts will be beneficial to club members and will enhance the Club's ability to host events and tournaments at this site. Council has provided loans to non-profit groups that provide a recreation service to the community in the past, such as the Maple Ridge Lawn Bowling Club, and this support resulted in an enhanced level of service to the community. If Council would like to support this request, it is recommended that this item be referred to staff to identify a funding source and approach, and more information on the size, form and placement of the clubhouse. This information would then be brought back to Council for a final decision.

However, the conditions of the grant require that the project be completed by December of 2014 and currently the MRTC does not have the funds to complete the project. MRTC, through staff, is requesting a grant or loan from the District of Maple Ridge. RECOMMENDATION: That a recommendation be forwarded to Maple Ridge Council to consider the request received from the Maple Ridge Tennis Club for a grant or loan in the amount of $30,000 toward the completion of the Club House project at the Thomas Haney Tennis Courts. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: In September 2013, the MRTC submitted a request for approval in principle, to place a portable building (Club House) at the Thomas Haney Tennis Courts. This request was approved by the Commission, Maple Ridge Council and SD42, subject to several conditions being met prior to the project being started, including permit approvals and construction and operating agreements being in place. The MRTC has now advised staff that they were recently awarded a grant from the Rotary Club in the amount of $30,000; however the project must be completed by December 31, 2014, as a condition of the grant. The club has raised an additional $30,000 on their own but it is anticipated that they will need up to $30,000 in addition to the funds they have already raised, in order to complete the project within the period specified for the grant funding. The MRTC has agreed to recognize the Rotary for the donation by changing the club name to "Maple Ridge Rotary Tennis Club" on all future correspondence on the club's letterhead. They have also agreed to place a sign at the club recognizing the Rotary Club's financial support for the Club House. Staff has confirmed that there is no expectation for the park/school site or the tennis courts to be renamed as part of the agreement between the MRTC and the Rotary Club. b) Desired Outcome: That the MRTC completes the Club House project prior to December 31, 2014 in order to be eligible for the Rotary grant funding that has been offered to them. c) Strategic Alignment: The approval in principle that was previously granted to the MRTC was intended to provide the club with the ability to increase their membership and host larger regional tennis tournaments in Maple Ridge. This request is consistent with the Commission's desire to promote healthy, active living opportunities for our citizens, as well as being a potential economic driver for our community when tournaments are hosted in Maple Ridge \\m r. corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Co u nci I-Mtgs-Pu bl is\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2014\2014-07- 21_COW\CDPR\PLSC_MR_Tennis_Club_Funding_Req_2014-07-10.doc d) Citizen/Customer Implications: The MRTC is currently providing a very valuable service to the community through their tennis lessons and club activities for all ages of players who wish to learn or participate in the club's activities. The current membership ranges from youth through seniors and has maintained a strong membership for many years. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: The MRTC is requesting funding assistance to complete this project and meet the funding conditions of the grant that they have received from the Rotary Club. The club's first choice of course would be that Maple Ridge Council would provide them with a grant of $30,000 which would cover the costs of the utilities, such as water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer and power to the club house. The club is willing to enter into an agreement to borrow all or a portion of the $30,000 in order to ensure that they do not lose the grant funding that they have been offered from Rotary; however, it is their hope that the municipality would consider contributing funds for this project. CONCLUSIONS: MRTC have asked that Maple Ridge Council consider providing a grant of $30,000 to them so that the project can proceed, and if this is not possible perhaps Council would consider providing the club a no interest loan to be repaid over an agreed period of time. Perhaps the Commission might consider recommending that Maple Ridge Council contribute funding to this project on the basis that the building would become the property of the District of Maple Ridge once completed, and that the club would be responsible, through a nominal rate lease, for all future maintenance costs for the building including all capital costs related to HVAC, roofing, utilities as well as any other costs directly associated with the Tennis Club House. `Original signed by David Boag' Prepared By: David Boag Director, Parks and Facilities `Original signed by Wendy McCormick, Acting General Manager' Approved By: Kelly Swift General Manager, Community Development Parks & Recreation Services :db PLS Commission Report 2012-09-13 \\m r. corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Co u nci I-Mtgs-Pu bl is\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2014\2014-07- 21_COW\CDPR\PLSC_MR_Tennis_Club_Funding_Req_2014-07-10.doc PARKS & LEISURE SERVICES Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission Report REGULAR MEETING September 12, 2013 SUBJECT: MAPLE RIDGE TENNIS CLUB - CLUB HOUSE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Maple Ridge Tennis Club (MRTC) have recently submitted a request to confirm in writing that they have been approved, in principle, to place a portable building (Club House) adjacent to the Maple Ridge Tennis Courts on 232 Street. RECOMMENDATION: That the Maple Ridge Tennis Club be granted approval in principle for a license to occupy (or lease if more appropriate) adjacent to the Thomas Haney Tennis Courts on 232 Street , Maple Ridge and forwarded to Maple Ridge Council and School District No. 42. This approval in principle is subject to School District No. 42 and District of Maple Ridge review and acceptance of all building and servicing plans, and detailed terms of license or lease as well as full funding being in place for the project prior to the start of construction. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: The Maple Ridge Tennis Club which includes the Maple Ridge Seniors Tennis Club, have been utilizing the majority of the tennis courts at the Thomas Haney Tennis courts in the mornings evenings and potions of the weekends for many years. They have not been provided with priority access to Court #5 to ensure that a court remains accessible to residents in the immediate neighborhood. The Club has been very successful and provides a wide range of game and or completion opportunities to its members. The Club also provides lessons to members and non members, as this has been a good strategy for them to attract and retain members in the Club. One of the major challenges for the Club for many years is the reduced ability to host tournaments at regional or provincial levels, as they do not have a clubhouse where they can provide washroom facilities and refreshments etc. for their guests. The Club recently lost out on a recent opportunity to purchase a suitable unit as they did not wish to enter into a purchase agreement with the vendor until they had received permission to place this on the site (photo attached). b) Desired Outcome: Ideally, the Maple Ridge Tennis Club be provided with approval in principle to place a portable building (Club House) adjacent to the Thomas Haney Tennis Courts so that they can act quickly if an appropriate building becomes available. \\m r. corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Co u nci I-Mtgs-Pu bl is\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2014\2014-07- 21_COW \CD PR\PLSC_M R_Ten n is_CI u b_Req_2013-09-12.doc #1 c) Strategic Alignment: The proposal to provide their members with a club house is consistent with the Commission's goals to promote and active and healthy community. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: It is anticipated that the addition of a good quality facility for the Tennis Club to provide basic catering and shelter for their members and guests will be positively received. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: No commitments have been made to the Club to share costs in any way related to the construction of the site or maintenance once installed. Staff however does anticipate assisting the Tennis Club with the development of a lease/license agreement and wherever possible assistance with the appropriate placement of the portable building as well as technical advice where and when requested. f) Policy Implications: Staff will post the information required in the Community Charter regarding disposition of municipally owned/School District lands. g) Alternatives: The alternative in this case would be to deny the approval in principle to place the proposed club house, however this is not recommended as a facility like this has the potential to provide significant social end economic benefits to the Club and the community. CONCLUSIONS: This is the second time that the Maple Ridge Tennis Club have brought forward a proposal to place a portable building on the site, however due the building cost and servicing costs they were unable to proceed with the first application. The Club President has advised that they are in a much better financial position than before and are now ready to proceed with this project. `Original signed by David Boag' Prepared By: David Boag Director Parks & Facilities `Original signed by Kelly Swift' Approved By: Kelly Swift General Manager, Community Development Parks & Recreation Services :db Attachment- photo \\m r. corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Co u nci I-Mtgs-Pu bl is\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2014\2014-07- 21_COW \CD PR\PLSC_M R_Ten n is_CI u b_Req_2013-09-12.doc #2
