City of Maple Ridge
TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read MEETING DATE: January 16, 2018
and Members of Council
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: Intermunicipal Business Licence Update
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The purpose of this report is to give Council an update on the Intermunicipal Business Licence (IMBL)
program of which the City of Maple Ridge is a founding member.
As a founding member, the City of Maple Ridge has been participating in the Fraser Valley Intermunicipal
Business Licence program since 2013. The IMBL program is now well established and had been
operating successfully. The IMBL committee has been meeting regularly to discuss the effectiveness of
the program and to explore methods of improving and expanding the program. Provincial representatives
from The Ministry of Small Business attend most of these meetings.
In late 2017, the Fraser Valley committee met with members of the Metro West committee. Metro West
includes Vancouver, Burnaby and New Westminster. At that meeting it was agreed to hold a lengthier
meeting in 2018 in order have sufficient time to review current practices and to explore the possibilities
for amalgamation and to expand the eligibility for the program. The Province has agreed to be in
attendance at this meeting as well. The meeting is scheduled for February of this year. It is anticipated
that these discussions will result in recommendations on the most appropriate model for cooperation
among the IMBL programs
RECOMMENDATION(S):
This report on the Intermunicipal Business License Program is for information purposes only.
DISCUSSION:
a)Background Context:
Prior to the implementation of the Intermunicipal Business Licence Pilot Program, non-resident
(mobile) trade contractor businesses were required to obtain a business licence from their home
municipality in which they were based, as well as purchase a non-resident business licence from
each municipality in which they operated. Under the Intermunicipal Business Licence Program,
the participating municipalities have agreed to allow non-resident (mobile) trade contractor
businesses from within the participating municipalities to operate in their municipality on the
basis of one Intermunicipal Business Licence purchased from their home municipality. The cost
of the IMBL is $250 annually, and each mobile trade business is still required to purchase a
resident business licence from their home municipality. The revenue generated from sales of
Intermunicipal Business Licences is shared among the participating municipalities.
The initial Fraser Valley Intermunicipal Business Licence Pilot Program was adopted for one year
and was set to expire on December 31, 2013. On October 3, 2013 the IMBL Committee
conducted a review of the existing pilot to determine if the Fraser Valley Intermunicipal Business
Licence program was meeting the needs of the municipalities and businesses and whether the
702.3
Page 2 of 2
program should be continued. Upon further discussion, it was determined that additional time
was required to allow for a more comprehensive review of the program and therefore, with
participating Councils’ approval, the initial one year pilot program was extended for an additional
two years expiring on December 31, 2015.
During the two year pilot extension, the IMBL Committee has worked closely with the Province’s
Small Business Branch to ensure the successful development of an Intermunicipal Business
Licence Program taking into consideration the addition of other municipalities to the program,
developing a more sustainable revenue sharing formula, and expanding the eligible business
types.
As a result of this review, the IMBL was permanently instituted and all participating municipalities
passed a bylaw to adopt this program. The IMBL program is now well established.
Currently the list of municipalities participating in the Fraser Valley IMBL Program include the
Township of Langley, City of Langley, City of Abbotsford, City of Surrey, City of Maple Ridge, City of
Pitt Meadows, District of Mission, District of Delta, City of Chilliwack and the District of Hope.
Other jurisdictions have also implemented IMBL programs which include Metro, North Shore and
the Tri-Cities. Initial discussions have been held to discuss the most appropriate model for
cooperation among the IMBL programs. The first meeting in 2018 will only include Metro and
Fraser Valley to solidify a common approach. Subsequent to this, the two groups will then reach
out to the Tri-Cities and North Shore to solicit interest in an expanded model.
CONCLUSIONS:
The IMBL Committee will continue working closely with the Province’s Small Business Branch to ensure
the ongoing delivery of a successful Intermunicipal Business Licence Program. Consideration will also be
given to the addition of other municipalities into the program, developing a sustainable revenue sharing
formula, and expanding the eligible business types. A future report will be provided to Council as these
initiatives are advanced.

and Members of Council FILE NO:
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: Falcon Homes – Amendments to Purchase and Sale Agreement
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
At the August 31, 2015 Closed Meeting, Council approved the terms of the Purchase and Sale
Agreement (PSA) between the City and Falcon Homes Ltd. (Falcon) for the 3.04 acre City-owned
Town Centre lands and staff were directed to initiate and complete the process for disposition as per
the Community Charter requirements.
Falcon requested that the original PSA be amended in May 2017 to accommodate revisions to the
phasing of the development and the timing of the payments to the City, and to capture new
conditions as required to move the development forward. As per legal counsel, the amended PSA
was included as an appendix to the Rezoning Amendment Report approved by Council on June 13,
2017. This first amendment to the PSA is included as Appendix C.
In October 2017, Falcon requested that a second amendment to the PSA be drafted to facilitate the
rezoning process. For simplicity a single omnibus covenant has been drafted to include all legal
restrictions to be registered immediately as per Council recommendations. This second Amendment
is included as Appendix D.
Both City staff and legal counsel have reviewed the two amending documents and to ensure
compliance with Community Charter provisions, are recommending approval of the first amending
document and the second amending document.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
That the first amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement between the City of Maple Ridge and
Falcon Homes Ltd. dated May 21, 2017 be approved and that the Corporate Officer be authorized to
execute the agreement.
That the second amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement between the City of Maple Ridge
and Falcon Homes Ltd. dated November 22, 2017 be approved and that the Corporate Office be
authorized to execute the agreement.
CONCLUSION:
The first phase of the Falcon Home development has sold out and the company is accelerating its
efforts to bring forward the subsequent phases for sale and development. The City continues to
work with Falcon Homes to ensure that Council’s original goals and objectives for the Town Centre
lands are met and that the development is delivered in as timely and efficient manner as possible.
Both amendments to the original Purchase and Sale Agreement have been prepared by the City’s
801

legal counsel to ensure that the City’s long term interests in both the sale of the properties and their
respective development are met.

City of Maple Ridge
TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read MEETING DATE: August 31, 2015
and Members of Council FILE NO:
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Closed
SUBJECT: City-Owned Town Centre Lands – Approval of Purchase and Sale Agreement
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The purpose of this report is to seek Council’s approval of the Purchase and Sale Agreement for the
sale of the City-owned Town Centre Lands and to proceed with the public process for the disposition
of the municipal property.
On December 15, 2010, the City of Maple Ridge completed the purchase of 14 properties located
between Haney Place Mall and ValleyFair Mall - a development site that encompassed 3.04 acres.
The City’s cost for the property including acquisition costs, demolition of the existing homes and
preliminary environmental remediation amounted to about $4 million dollars.
In October 2014, a Request for Proposals was released and in April of 2015, Council directed staff to
proceed with discussions and negotiations with the lead proponent, Falcon Homes. The Business
Terms and Conditions reached with Falcon were approved by Council on July 20, 2015.
The Purchase and Sale Agreement incorporating the Council-approved terms and conditions has
been completed and approved by Falcon Homes and is attached as an appendix to this report.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
1.That the Purchase and Sale Agreement between the City of Maple Ridge and Falcon Homes Ltd.
for the City’s 3.04 acre Town Centre Lands and reflecting the Business Terms and Conditions as
presented to Council on July 20, 2015 be approved.
2.That staff be directed to initiate and complete the process for disposal of municipally-owned land
for the City of Maple Ridge’s 3.04 acre Town Centre Lands as required under Sections 26 and 94 of
the Community Charter.
DISCUSSION:
a)Background Context:
On December 15, 2010, the City of Maple Ridge completed the purchase of 14 properties located
between Haney Place Mall and ValleyFair Mall - a development site encompassing 3.04 acres which
cost the City about $4 million dollars.
Staff prepared and released a Request for Proposals (RFP) on October 6, 2014, which closed on
January 16, 2015. In April of 2015, staff presented an overview of the RFP submissions for
1 | Page
APPENDIX B
Council’s consideration and identified Falcon Homes as the primary proponent. From this
presentation, Council directed staff to “enter into discussions and negotiations with the lead
proponent (Falcon Homes) with a view to arriving at a mutual understanding of the key business
points to be included in a formal Letter of Intent and that staff report back to Council on the outcome
of that process.” The key business terms that staff arrived at were approved by Council on July 20,
2015. The July 20, 2015 report is included as an attachment to this report (Appendix A).
The business terms were incorporated into a formal Purchase and Sale Agreement (PSA) which is
attached as Appendix B for Council’s consideration for approval.
b)Desired Outcome
The desired outcome is for approval by Council of the Purchase and Sale Agreement such that staff
can initiate and complete the process for disposal of the City of Maple Ridge’s 3.04 acre Town
Centre Lands as required under Sections 26 and 94 of the Community Charter.
c)Citizen/Customer Implications:
City-owned land is an asset of the taxpayers of Maple Ridge. Proactive utilization of this asset will
positively enhance the community as a whole, influencing the creation of a special neighbourhood,
generating new jobs, greater tax revenues, supporting complementary businesses, and producing
greater overall awareness of the community as a whole. While the City’s initial clean-up of the
development site was viewed as very positive step for the community at large, there is the potential
to develop something unique that blends in with, and supports, the surrounding neighborhood. As
such, careful consideration was exercised to ensure that the Purchase and Sale Agreement as
negotiated with Falcon Homes leads to a final development that is befitting its true potential.
d)Interdepartmental Implications:
This initiative will continue to require cooperation and direct collaboration among Planning,
Engineering, Parks and Leisure Services, Financing, Property & Risk Management and Economic
Development as well as the City’s Corporate Management Team.
e)Business Plan/Financial Implications:
There will be direct business plan implications for the 2016 – 2020 planning cycles for the
departments involved and it should be expected that if the decision is made to approve the Purchase
and Sale Agreement that the proposed development will consume staff resources from within each
department. In addition, this initiative may generate some direct costs as related to appraisals of
the various properties, outside consultant costs, legal costs and specific feasibility studies (or the
like) if deemed warranted.
f)Policy Implications:
While this particular development site falls within the well-defined and articulated Town Centre Area
Plan, it is possible that certain parcels contained within the site may be subject to either re-zoning or
Official Community Plan amendments.
Alternatives:
Council may wish to defer the disposition of the City-owned Town Centre Lands to a later date.

CONCLUSIONS:
Given the quality of the Falcon Homes RFP submission, coupled with the close alignment of the City’s
development objectives with the negotiated business terms, the recommendation is to approve the
attached Purchase and Sale Agreement and to proceed with the public disposition process for the
municipal property.

Schedule “B”
Overall Development Proposal:
The comprehensive re-development of the Town Centre Lands includes a total of five mixed-
use buildings varying in height from five to six storeys, with a total residential yield of 215 units
and approximately 4,693 m2 (50,512 ft2) of commercial floor space. The comprehensive
development plan includes an underground parkade spanning the balance of the city block that
will serve all future buildings. Two ramps to the underground parking structure will be
accessed from the internal lane, Building and parkade construction will occur in four phases,
beginning in the north-east corner and ending with the buildings along Selkirk Avenue .
Amenity Spaces and Public Art:
The centre of the block is proposed to be developed as a public plaza space that includes
landscaped green spaces, public art, seating areas, water features and routes for non -
motorized transportation. Patio space will have the potential to serve as an extension of the
commercial space for outdoor seating. Public art will be incorporated into the central plaza
space. Vehicular traffic will be restricted through the middle portion of the plaza to create a
pedestrian and cycling friendly space.
Space for a commercial 25 child daycare will also be provided within the development. By
reference to sections 14 and 16 of the B.C. Child Care Licensing Regulation, this will require 150
m2. of indoor space (not including bathrooms, hallways etc.) and 150 m2. of outdoor space. If,
due to change of legislation or other reason outside the control of the developer, the child care
space as built does not meet the requirements for care of 25 children, the space must be used
for child care purposes, and for the maximum number of children permitted according to the
applicable legislation.
Green Building Components:
All of the proposed buildings will be constructed to a LEED Certified standard equivalency,
although the formal certification process will not be pursued. The developer will be required to
submit a Commissioner’s Report to the City one year after occupancy in the absence of the
formal certification process. The following green building components are proposed to meet
the LEED certification standard:
• Low-impact development standards, including absorbent soils, naturalized landscaping
and xeriscaping, and permeable surfaces
• Rain water recovery systems
• Organic waste facilities
• Infrastructure for future alternative energy sources
• Roof gardens and permeable paving to reduce impervious surfaces
• Reduced indoor and outdoor water use through fixture selection and irrigation
requirements
- 13 -
Q:\00039\0714\Agr-Cr-Amendment Of Psa-V3 (Clean).Docx Jun 02, 2017 9:33 AM/DG
• Optimize energy efficiency through fixture and appliance selection, extensive use of
daylight, and maximized envelope performance.
• Materials are environmentally, economically, and socially have preferable life -cycle
impacts
• Reduce construction water and divert materials wherever possible
• Enhance indoor air quality, thermal comfort and overall well-being by: conducting air
quality assessment, utilizing low-emitting materials, maximizing natural ventilation,
offering individual control of air temperature, maximizing daylight and providing
unobstructed views for the majority of living control of air temperatures, maximizing
daylight and providing unobstructed views for the majority of living commercial spaces.
• Electrical vehicle charging stations and Provision for Electrical Vehicles
o Public: one Level 3 fast-charging receptacle located within the public surface
parking area to be provided and wired to city power.
o CRU tenants: install conduit to allow for one Level 2 charging receptacle per CRU
unit.
o Residents: install conduit to 10% of the parking stalls to allow for future Level 1
charging receptacles.
Rental Housing:
Both rental and accessible housing units will be provided in the proposed buildings. The
number of rental units to 10% of the residential units in the project (21 total), with 50% of
those being market rental and 50% being affordable non-market rental. The rental housing
units will be subject to a perpetual Housing Agreement, which will permit the rental housing
units to be sold but only to be occupied by a rente r as defined in the Housing Agreement. The
breakdown is as follows:
a. 5 rental units in Phase 1, being:
i. 2 – two bedroom units, rented at market rate
ii. 2 – three bedroom units, rented at market rate
iii. 1 -two bedroom units, rented at affordable non-market rate, and fully
accessible as described in the BC Building Code
b. 4 rental units in Phase 2, being:
i. 3 – one bedroom units, rented at market rate
ii. 1 – 3 bedroom unit, rented at affordable non-market rate, and fully
accessible as described in the BC Building Code
c. 5 rental units in Phase 3
i. 2 – two bedroom units, rented at market rate
ii. 2 – three bedroom units, rented at market rate
iii. 1 – two bedroom units, rented at affordable non-market rate, and fully
accessible as described in the BC Building Code

Q:\00039\0714\Agr-Cr-Amendment Of Psa-V3 (Clean).Docx Jun 02, 2017 9:33 AM/DG
d. 7 affordable non-market units in Phase 4
i. 3 – two bedroom units, rented at affordable non-market rate
ii. 4 – one bedroom units, rented at affordable non-market rate, with 2 of
these being fully accessible as described in the BC Building Code
For clarity, in the Housing Agreement for the 10 affordable non-market units, rent will be set at
a maximum of 30% of average household income (as published by BC Housing or Stats Canada).
Adaptable Housing:
In addition to secured rental housing units, adaptable housing units will also be provided. The
developer proposes to provide age-in-place measures following the SAFERhome standard for
Multi-Storey Residential Towers, published by the Saferhome Standards Society. These
measures include:
• Thresholds (including doorways and showers)
• Backing/reinforcement for future grab bars in washrooms and at stairs
• Doors – as wide as possible; easily operated hardware (lever sets)
• Passageways and pinch points
• Shower control valves
10% of units will be constructed to this standard.

Re: Geotechnical Investigation Report - Proposed FaYcon 'Village Development
ll909, 227 Street, Mapie Ridge, BC
1.0 INTRODY7CTION
~Ve understand that Falcon Homes is considering the above referenced property fora 5-phase residentialdevelopment. Preliminary architectural design drawings, prepared by ~'oitits West Architecture show thatthe proposed residential development will include 5 levels of above grade floors over one to two levels ofbeloSv grade parking founded at depths ranging from 4 to 8 m below existing grades. The proposeddevelopment is expected to consist of wood fraared structures for the above grade- portion and concreteconstruction for the beto~v grade parking. Structural loading is anticipated to be moderately heavy withaverage stresses of about 90 to 70 kPa at foundation level:
GeoPacific Consultants completed a geatectu~cal investigation program on site on July 5`~, zai6. Thisreport presents the results of our geotechnical investigation and testing of the subsurface sails andgroundwater conditions at the site and presents recommendations for design and construction of theproposed development.
Authorization far this work was.pravided by D~+~ayne Friesen of Falcon ~Totnes on June 20th, 201b. Thisreport has been prepared exclusively fot Falcon Homes, for their use, the use of others on their design andconstruction team, and the City of Maple Ridge for use in the development and peritiitting process. Noother use of the report is permitted without the,consent of GeoPacific.
~Ve confirm that the property may be used safely for the intended development. Our confirmation of thesafe intended use of the property is null and void in the event that any parties undertake any geotechniealrelated works which arc not reviewed and approved by GeoPacific Consultants Ltd. The proposeddevelopment is also not expected to have any geoteehnical related impacts on surrounding Lands.
2.0 SITE DFSCRIPTION
The development site is located at the southtivest corner of the intersection of 227 Sheet and 119 Avenue,Maple Ridge, BC. At the time of our ui~restigation the site included undsvelope@, relatively flat vegetatedareas. Vegetatio~i generally Included field grasses and some stands of trees along the ease edge and also onfile northrvesc side of the site. l'he site measures approximately L25 m and 85 m in the north-south and east-west directions; respectively. The site is bounded by SeSkirk Avenue to the south, 227 Street to the east,119 Avenue to the north and a private property including a 4four=storey bu►iding and parking lots to thewest,

3.Q FI~GD INVF~STIGATION
A geotechnicat investigation program tvas completed on site by GeoPacific Consultants Ltd. on July 5'~,
2016. During the field investigation, a total of 7 auger test holes and S electronic cone penetration tests
{CPI's) were conducted on-site employing a track mounted auger drill rig, supplied and operated by On
Track Drilling Ltd., of Cvt~uitlam, BC. Auger test holes were drilled to depths of approximately 6 to 9 m
below current grades. CPT's were_advancec! to depths of reftisal at 16 to 20 m. beloti=r current grades.
Tf~e auger test hole logs ace presented on Figures A.1 through A.7 of Appendix `A'. The CPT soundings
are presented on Figures B.Q 1 through B.OS o~ Appendix `B'. Interpreted soil strength indices are computed
for each CPT sounding and presented on Figures C.Ot through C.05 of Appendix `C'. Correlation of the
andrained shear strengths and the CPT was assisted with. the completion of field vanes 'at .CPTl6-04.
Liquefaction analyses on CPT data vas carried out and the results are presented on Figures p.01. through
D.OS of Appendix `D' .
Tfie test holes weee located and lagged by a member of our technical team and the holes were backfilled
immediately after togging, sampling, and testing.
Tl~e approximate Iocations of our auger tesE holes and CPI's aze provided on our Drawing No. 14074-01,
attached.
4.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
4.1 Soil Coridit~ans
Surficial geology of the area is described on the.Geological Survey of Canada Map 1484A which indicates
tlie. surftcia! geology on this site consists of marine deposited clays. Tlus is consistent with our experience
in the area and the test hole results described below.
The soil conditions consist of surficial togsoil, fill, and vegetation overlying silty clay. Topsoil was
observed to be up to 0.2 m #hick and present at all test holes, except TH16-Ol, ~'vhere 0.3 m of graver fill
was observed.
Tlie silty c[ay was obser~red to be very stiff to stiff at the top o£the deposit with undrained shear strengths
upwards of 250 k~'a, becoming firm to stiff with depth with shear strengths of about 50 to IOQ kPa. The
silty clRy vas observed to be Uro~vn and relatively dry at the surface becoming grey/bluish grey and moist
w ith depth. Our laboratory test results show that tt►e moisture content.value~s of the samples obtained from
this stratum range from 30 to 47'0.
~Rcfusal of our CPI's occurred at depths ranging from 16 to 20 in be~q~v current local grades on what is
erected to be very dense glacial till.
4.2 Groundwater Conditions
Due to the very lo~v permeability of the silty clay materials nn site, seepage into the boreholes vas minimal

acid subsequent determination oP the pasitian of the static water table was not feasible at the kime of drilling.
However, the zone of oxidation within the clay layer provides an approximate average position for the water
t1ble in our experience, Based on this information the static water level. appears to Ue aUout 1.5 to 2 iu
below grades.
Near surface perched groundwater and surface ponding should be expected during the wetter months of the
year due to the tow permeability of the natural siEty clay.
5.0 DISCUSSION
51 Creneral Comments
Based on the preliminary architectural drawings, the new structures proposed consist of 5-storey above
grade floors over one to two levels of below grade parking founded at depths rang%ng from 4 to 8 m in
relation to the existing local grades. We expect the loading induced by the netiv stzuctures fo be moderately
heavy with average stresses of about about Sd to 70 kPa at foundation level. Given the contemplated depth
of construction, the expect that [he existing stiff silty clay will provide satisfactory support to the proposed
structures on conventional strip and pad Foundations. The observed surficial vegetation, topsoil, fill, and
soils containing organics including roots aze not considered suitable to support the proposed structures and
should be stripped,
S.2 Seismic Analysis
It is generally accepted that loose to compact.and non-plastic silts and sands are prone to liquefaction or
strain softening dwr~ng cyclic loading caused by large earthquakes. The strength reduction caused by soil
tign~faction can cause foundations to punch. Furthermore, once liquefaction lies been trigge~'ed,
experience has shown that significant, permanent vertical and horizontal mpvements may be experienced.
T}ie soils on-site consist of plastic silty clays. Soils o~ this composition are not considered liquefiable {Bray
et al. 2004).
Based on the 2012 BriEish Columbia Building Code (BCBC) recommendations, the design earthquake
m~gnituda of 7.0 and peak horizontal ground acceleration of 0.4$g (Natural Resources Canada on firm
ground) should be considered for this site.
5.3 Ynterpreted Stress_H~lstory
Interpretation of the stress history in clayey soils, such as the.soils present on the property, is °tmportant
since they may be susceptible to consolidation settlement. Consolidation settlement is time dependant
volume change associated with the dissipation of pore water pressures after application of a load and ca~i
be very large compared to elastic settlement, which occurs immediately. Consolidation settlement occurs
whenever clayey sons are loRded in excess of their maximucn.past stresses. Th~ss, if sn-situ stresses can be
limited to less than the maximum past stress then only elastic, settlement should vcct~c'.
We have conduCtsd a stress history analysis based on the information obtained from our CPT soundings.
bier analysis indicates that the soils era moderately to heavily "over consolidated". An over consolidated
soil is defined as a soi! which has, experienced stresses in the past that are itt excess of their current stresses.
Pseudo over consolidation is also Icnotvn to occur tvhere aging and cheznical.bonding effects cause a soil to

Consolidation Ratio". (OCR). For example, a soil with an OCR of 3 has experienced three times its current
lll-SIfU StCCSS' while a soil with an OCR of 1 is experiencing the highest stresses that it has ever experienced.
A soil wit1~ au OCR = 1 is defined as "normally consolidated".
Results of our stress history analysis ate provided in Appendix- `C' ~vhich includes interpreted OCR plots
based on Sclunertmann and our CPT data.
Ol~r revietiv indicates that with ot~r expected average stresses at fqundation level and considering our
recommended bearing pressure values, as noted in Section 6.2, the over-consolidation stress of the_ silty
clay will noE be exceeded resulting in relatively small elastic settlements only. '
6.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
6,1$ite Preparation
Prior to the constncction of naw. buildings and placement of ne~v engineered fill material, the site should be
stripped of all unsuitable fill, vegetation, topsoil, organics; and loose or otherwise disturbed soils to expose
a subgrade oP stiff silty clay. Based on dte test hole logs, eve generally expect a minimum stripping depth
of. 0.2 m. Considering the contemplated depth of construction, we anticipate that the depth of stripping
should be dictated by the construction elevations rather than the suitability of the subsurface soils.
Tl~e excavation of unsuitable soils shoald extend beyond the outer edge of. the building envelopes. The
distance of the over excavation should be equal to the thickness of proposed fill beneath the proposed
strubtare: Grade reinstatements should be completed using engineered ill. In the context of this report,
engineered X11 is defined as clean sand to Sand and gravel compacted i~ 300 mm loose lifts to a minimum
dry density of 95°Yo Modified Proeto~ (ASTM D1557).
The placement and cgmpactian of engineexcd fil[ should be reviewed by the geotechnical engineer
b.2 Spread I'oundaHons
Following the recommended site preparation, outlined in Section 6.1, footings which are founded on
undisturbed natural, stiff to very stiff silty clay, described in Section 4,1, tocated below a m depth with
retipect to existing site grades may be designed on the basis of a service bearing pressure of I(}0 kPa for
strip or pad footings: Foundations beating on engineezed. fill may also be designed on the basis of a service
bearing pressure of 100 kPa, Factored ultimate bearing pressures may be assumed,to be 5U% higher than
the service bearing,pressures.
~Ve estimate for foundations designed as recommended, settlements. tviil not exceed 2S mm total and 20
nun in 10 metres differentia.
Irrespective of the aIla~vable bearing pressures given, _pad footings, should not be Less than 640 mm by 600
mrn and strs~ footings should not be less than 450 mm in width. Footings should also be btuicd a minimum
of 450 mm beioiv the surface for frostprotection.
Thy native silty clay soils is expected to be moisture sensitive and so immediately after excavation and
review by the geotectsnica( engineer it should be protected. ~Ve recommend that the. subgrade should be
blinded ~vittt 100 mm of 19 mm clear crush gravel. Any water softened material; or subgrade soil disturbed

for any reason, mus! be excavated and be replaced with engineered fill.
Foundation subgrades must be inspected by a geotechnical engineer prior to footing construction.
6,3 Slab-On•Grade Floors
Ploor slabs should be underlain by a minimum of 150 mm of a free draining granular material such as 19
nun clear crushed gravel which ~s,hydraulically connected to the fowtdat on drainage system. A moisture
bamer should underlie the slab directly above the free draining granular material.
Compaction of the slab-on-grade fil[ should be reviewed by the geotechnical engineer.
6.4. I'oundanon Drainage
A ll structures with be(osv grade construction (i~asemendunderground parking) must be designed with a
perimeter drainage system.
6.5 B.C. Building Code Seismic Site Class
The development property falls under "Site Class D" us defined in Section 4.1.8.4 of the 2012 BC Building
Code. A Site Class D is referenced as "stiff soil" site in the building code and consists of a property with
ari average shear iv~ve velocity of 180 to 3b0 mJs, or standard penetration resistance (Nro) of 15 to 50, or
undrained shear strength of 50 to 100 kPa in the upper 30 m of the soil profile.
6.6 Temporary Excavations
Based on the review of the preliminary architectwal drawings, we anticipate that excavations to depths
ranging hom 4 to 8 m would be needed at (or near) tie property line, resulting in vertical cuts. Given the
subsurface conditions, we are of the opinion tk~at conventional anchored shotcrete walls would be a suitable
storing method at this site for one level of underground parking. The upper crust ~vi11 be penetrated by 2
levels of excavation and a more robust system q~ ~nchox supported sheefpiles or secant piles would likely
have to be considered. We can provide detaZled shoring/excavation design drawings once final
architecturaUstructural drawings are available.
Tc;mporary cut slopes in excess of 1.2 ruetres in height with worker entry require inspection by a
professional engineer in accordance with Work Safe BC guidelines.
D ue to the observed shallow depth ~f groandwater table, temporary cut slopes would not be feasible for
deep excavations. The extent of 2 level parking would ideally be limited from a sk~oring cost perspective.
Temporary cut slopes should be covered in poly sheeting fog the duration of the work to inhibit erosion.
6.7 Lateral ~~rth Pressures on Toundation WaYIs
' lie earth pressure on the foundations walls depends upon a number of factors including the bael~ill
m aterial, surcharge loads, backfiIl slope, drainage, rigidity o~ the basement wa11, and metftod of construction
including sequence and degree of compaction.
Flat 4074 Proposed Residential Devclopmcnt — l 1909, 227' Street, Maple Ridge, BC p~$t 5
CONSULTING GEOT~CHNtCAI. ENGiNE~RS
Page 13
Por the foundation walls we recommend the following earth pressures; For a fully restrained foundation
walls designed for static pressure a pressure distribution of lOH (kPa) triangular should be employed, where
`H' is the buried depth of dte wall, ui metres. For an unrestrained basement wall a.static pc~essure distribution
of 7H (kPa} triangular may be used. Dynamic loading induced by the design earthquake should be added
to the static toads and should be taken as 6H (kPa) inverted triangular.
Restrained. versus unrestrained conditions depend upon the degree of wall movement. A flexible, or
u nrestrained tvalt, is allowed tv move 0.002H,ostwards at the top of wAll, where H is the height of the wall.
A restrained or rigid wall is prevented from rotating out at Ehe top of the wall either by intervening walls or
floors which prevent deflection of the wall, Partial movements of the watt may result in pressures somewhat
less than the restrained condition but it is not possible to predict intermediate cases with any degree of
certainty.
We have assumed that a sand chimney drain Svill tae used directly against the foundation walls as noted
above and that a perimeter drainage system will also be employed to collect any water from behind the
~*calls, Therefore, our wa11 loading scenac~os presented abgve assume that no water pressure will be
generated against the walls. Our loading scenarios also assume that only nominal compaction effort will be
conducted ~vithux 0.6 metres of the foundation wolfs so that compaction pressures are not imposed on
foundation tivalls.
Alf earth pressures, aze based upon unfactored soil parameters and are assumed to be unfactored loads.
6.8 Utility Installation
Bedding and f~aekfilling materials, as well as compaction specifications, for any neW proposed utilities on
site should conform to the specifications outlined in the Master Municf~al Construction Documents
{MMCD).
Where temporary excavations are required to install utilities the latest 1Vork Safe. BC guidelines for open
trenching and shoring should be employed.
Where fum clays are encountered at bedding elevations the thickness of bedding may have to be increased
depending on the size of the proposed utility. These requirements will have to be fiirther evaluated after
~revie~v of the civil design:
7,0 DESIGN REVIEWS AND CONSTRrtJCTION INSPLCTYONS
Tlie preceding sections make recommendations for the design. and construction of the proposed residential
development. Vide have recommended the review of certain aspects of~tl~e design and construction. it es
important that these c`eviews are carried out to ensure that our intentions have been adequately
communicated. It is also important that any contractor(s~ working on.the site review this document prior to
commencing their work.
The required;revievvs are summarized belotiv:
1: Review of site stripping operations
2: Revie~*i_of foundation subgrade.~rior to footing construction
3. Review of slab-on-grade fill compaction prior to slab construction

or development variance permit cannot be approved until a release is obtained for the
subject properties;
xv) In addition to the site profile, a disclosure statement must be submitted by a Professional
Engineer advising whether there is any evidence of underground fuel storage tanks on the
- 3 -
subject property. If so, a Stage 1 Site Investigation Report is required to ensure that the
subject property is not a contaminated site;
xvi) A Traffic Impact Assessment prepared at the sole cost of the proponent to the satisfaction
of the City. The findings in the assessment may require the proponent to upgrade
infrastructure at their sole cost; and
xvii) Registration of a Housing Agreement in accordance with Section 483 of the Local
Government Act and a Restrictive Covenant stating that a minimum of 7 dwelling units will

Standards, and in accordance with Section 3.8.5 Adaptive Dwelling Units of the British
Columbia Building Code as amended; one unit must be fully accessible per the BC Building
Code; and the rental units will be in perpetuity.
The following applies to the above:
i. The City of Maple Ridge is currently the owner of the property; therefore the City must enter
into the Rezoning Servicing Agreement. The applicant has requested that the agreement be
in the form of a phased payment scheme so that payment of the required works and services
will be in conjunction with the completion of the purchase of each parcel of land as outlined
in the Purchase and Sales Agreement (PSA), save and except phase 2 that has been secured
in conjunction with this rezoning. The City of Maple Ridge has received $290,646.00 for the
payment of phase 2 security and $24,361.40 for fees. The City will receive the remaining
security and fees at the time of completion of the purchase of each subsequent phase.
Phase 3 security will be $464,556.00 and the fees paid will be $35,644.05. Phase 4
security will be $146,420.00 and the fees paid will be $7,171.35;
ii. The Housing Agreement will be registered on the title of the subject property and is a charge
that will carry when the title of the property is transferred into the applicant’s name when the
purchases of the properties are completed. (Appendix F);
iii. A single omnibus restrictive covenant has been prepared that includes the following
restrictions:
Geotechnical Requirements;
Storm and rainwater management;
Public Art;
Protection of Visitor Parking; and
Parking Stall assignment for strata unit.
The City of Maple Ridge is currently the owner of the property; therefore the City must
enter into the restrictive covenant. The restrictive covenant will be registered on the titles of
the subject properties and are a charge that will carry when the title of the property is
transferred into the applicant’s name when the purchase of the properties are completed.
The restrictive covenant is a charge on the title of the lands in perpetuity;
iv. The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure has signed Bylaw 7262-2016;
v. Road dedication has been completed via subdivision plan EPP6549;
vi. Statutory Right of Way has been registered on the title of the properties;

OBJECTIVES & POLICIES
Property Tax Revenue
Property tax revenue is the City’s primary revenue source, and one which is heavily reliant on the
residential class. Diversification of the tax base and generation of non-tax revenue are ongoing
objectives, outlined in Financial Sustainability Policy 5.52 section 6.
The Financial Plan includes property tax increases that are as listed below:
2018 2019 2020 2021 2022
General Purpose 1.90% 2.00% 2.00% 2.00% 2.00%
Infrastructure Replacement 0.70% 0.70% 0.70% 0.70% 0.70%
Parks & Recreation 0.60% 0.60% 0.60% 0.60% 0.60%
Drainage 0.30% 0.30% 0.30% 0.30% 0.30%
Total Property Tax Increase 3.50% 3.60% 3.60% 3.60% 3.60%
Additional information on the tax increases and the cost drivers can be found in the most recent
Financial Plan Overview Report. Specific policies discussing the tax increases are included in the
Financial Sustainability Plan and related policies which were adopted in 2004.
Property tax revenue includes property taxes as well as grants in lieu of property taxes.
Parcel Charges
Parcel charges are comprised of a recycling charge, a sewer charge and on some properties, a local
area service or improvement charge. Parcel charges are a useful tool to charge all or a subset of
properties for a fixed or variable amount to support services. Unlike property taxation the variable
amount does not need to be related to property assessment value, but can be something that more
accurately reflects the cost of the service.

Statement 2 (cont.)
Revenue and Property Tax Policy Disclosure
Fees & Charges
Fees should be reviewed annually and updated if needed. Recent fee amendments include
recreation fees, development application fees, business license fees and cemetery fees. A major
amendment to the Development Costs Charges (DCC), recommended no more frequently than every
five years, was completed in 2008. Minor DCC amendments are done more frequently. Some fees
are used to offset the costs of providing specific services. The utility fees are reviewed annually with
a view towards using rate stabilization practices to smooth out large fluctuations in rates, as set out
in the Business Planning Guidelines.
Borrowing Proceeds
Debt is used when it makes sense, and with caution as it commits future cash flows to debt
payments, restricting the ability to use these funds to provide other services. The source of the debt
payments needs to be considered as does the justification for advancing the project. More
information on previously approved borrowing can be found in the most recent Financial Plan
Overview report.
Other Sources
This will vary greatly year to year as it includes:
•Development fees which fund capital projects from the DCC Reserve
•Contribution from others in relation to capital
•Grants which are sought from various agencies and may be leveraged with City funds
PROPERTY TAX DISCLOSURE
The 2018 property tax revenue and updated rates will be included in a Financial Plan Amending
Bylaw that proceeds the Property Tax Rate Bylaw, as the 2018 property assessed values are not yet
finalized. For information purposes the 2017 distribution is included.

Statement 2 (cont.)
Revenue and Property Tax Policy Disclosure
PROPERTY TAX DISCLOSURE
Objectives & Policies
Property taxes are the City’s largest source of revenue and are contained by efficient business
practices. Annual business planning practices are the mechanism for resource allocation decisions.
The City’s Financial Sustainability Policy section 6 discusses the necessity of diversifying the tax
base. Development of employment-related properties is one method of diversification; therefore a
key performance measurement in Strategic Economic Initiatives tracks the increased investment
and development of non-residential properties.
A policy in the Financial Sustainability Plan that calls for stable tax increases and the adoption of the
annual increase early in the prior year in the Business Planning Guidelines provides citizens with a
more stable and predictable set of cost increases. In some cases costs are phased in over multiple
years to stay within the set tax increases.
Property Tax Rates
It is policy to adjust property tax rates annually to negate the impact of fluctuations in the market
values of properties. Tax rates are reduced to negate the market increases. Property tax increases
are then applied at the same relative increase for all classes, unless legislation restricts the rates, as
with Class 2, Utility.
The Business Class and Light Industry Class properties have the same tax rate and are treated as a
composite class when setting the tax rates, as the types of businesses in each class are similar. In
2016, the increase was reduced from 3.15% to 1.85% to reduce the relative property tax burden for
these properties.
A review was done on the Major Industry Class rates and the recommendation from the Audit and
Finance Committee and Council was a 5% property tax reduction in both 2009 and 2010 to support
additional investments in the subject property and to keep rates competitive. In 2014 and 2015,
property taxes charged to major industrial class properties were reduced by $70,000 in each year.
In reviewing tax rates to ensure competitiveness, absolute rates, tax multiples and overall tax burden
are considered. The impact that assessed values have when comparing to other geographical areas
must be considered in a comparison of tax rates.
Permissive Tax Exemptions
Council has set policies around the use of permissive tax exemptions. These are Council Policies
5.19 through 5.24. These policies discuss Churches, Community Halls, Heritage Sites, Homes for the
Care of Children and the Relief of the Aged, the Poor, the Disabled and the Infirm, Municipal
Recreational Services, Private Hospitals and Daycares, Private School and Youth Recreation Groups.
Revitalization Tax Exemption Program
The Employment Land Investment Incentive Program is designed to encourage job creation by
supporting private investment in buildings and infrastructure on identified "employment lands".
More information on this tax exemption can be found on our website.

Capital Expenditure Disclosure
The sole purpose of this statement is to meet legislative requirements and highlight the value of the
DCC program; no other conclusions should be drawn from the figures as the information could be
misconstrued. This disclosure is required under the Local Government Act s. 560 (2); capital costs
attributable to projects to be partially funded by Development Cost Charges (DCC) must be included
in the financial plan. The DCC program includes projects as far out as 2037 so the capital
expenditures must be extended to match. Certain types of projects are not planned past the five year
time horizon of the financial plan. Much less scrutiny is given to projects that are planned in years
2023 through 2037. Projects in these years typically exceed likely funding available.

SUBJECT: Rescind Second and Third Reading
Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6914-2012
11055 Hazelwood Street
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Rezoning application 2012-031-RZ is an application to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One
Family Rural Residential) to M-3 (Business Park) to permit industrial in a Business Park format.
Council considered rezoning application 2012-031-RZ and granted first reading for Zone Amending
Bylaw No. 6914-2012 on October 9, 2012, and second reading on June 23, 2015. This application
was presented at Public Hearing on July 21, 2015, and Council granted third reading on July 28,
2015. Council granted a first extension on July 26, 2016. The Director of Planning granted a final
extension on July 27, 2017 (6 months only).
Pursuant with the Development Procedures Bylaw 5879-1999, no further extension is possible and
this application will expire on January 27, 2018. After lengthy consideration, the applicant seeks to
revise the original plans, and has submitted a letter from the property owner requesting that second
reading be rescinded ( Appendix C).
Granting this request will provide for an expedient process to advance the project to final reading,
and importantly will provide the neighbourhood with an opportunity to attend a Development
Information Meeting and Public Hearing. Given the historic lengthy duration of this application, staff
are recommending that reduced development approval timelines accompany this application. A
timeline for a feasible application process is included for Council’s review and endorsement.
RECOMMENDATION:
That second and third reading of Bylaw No. 6914-2012 for application 2012-031-RZ be rescinded;
and further,
That the proposed timeline as outlined in the staff report dated January 16, 2018 be endorsed.

Existing Use of Property: Vacant
Proposed Use of Property: Business Park
Site Area: 16.637 HA (41.1 acres)
Access: Hazelwood Street
Servicing requirement: Urban Standard
b) Project Description:
The original format of this application proposed to rezone the site at 11055 Hazelwood Street from
RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to M-3 (Business Park) to allow for the creation of a business
park, aimed at the needs of small to mid-size industrial users on the north portion of the site. It was
anticipated that at a later date the southern portion of the site would be subdivided and developed
to accommodate one larger industrial tenant.
In recent months, the property owner has entered into a joint venture partnership with Pitt Meadows
Plumbing to develop the entire site as a cluster of construction related businesses. For their part,
Pitt Meadows Plumbing would occupy a portion on the north side of the site, with possible expansion
into the south portion of the subject property. All available tenures will now be leasehold, a
departure from the original application, which proposed fee simple subdivision across the north and
south portions of the site.
Given that this rezoning application will expire in January, there is not enough time to revise the
application and complete the rezoning. During discussions with the applicant, it was also noted that
given the lengthy duration of this application (which dates to 2012), there are concerns in prolonging
the approval process, noting that there may have been changes in ownership in the neighbourhood,
and residents may wish to provide input into the process.
Given the above, the applicant has revised their plans and is requesting that second reading be
rescinded. This request is supportable as much of the technical work related to this file has been
completed, and it will provide a mechanism to refer the matter to public hearing. However, staff are
concerned that rescinding second reading will “re-set the clock” and could result in another lengthy
- 3 -
application process for this file (noting that the Development procedures bylaw allows for 18 months
following third reading and another 6 months at the discretion of the Director of Planning). For this
reason, it is recommended that subsequent readings to this Bylaw be subject to reduced
development approval timelines.
c)Proposed Timelines:
Should Council rescind second and third readings to Bylaw 6914-2012, the applicant would be
required to submit necessary materials for review by City Departments, present to Advisory Design
Panel, and host a Development Information Meeting. Council would then consider granting second
reading to the Bylaw, and forwarding the Bylaw to Public Hearing. The following timelines are
recommended and have been prepared in consultation with municipal departments out of a concern
for both expediency and efficiency. A failure to satisfy the conditions would result in the closure of
the file. The recommended timelines are:
i. Following repeal of second and third readings, the applicant would be granted 2 months to
submit all materials to commence departmental/agency referrals for consideration of second
reading. If the deadline is not met, the file will be closed. On this basis, a deadline of March
19, 2018 is recommended.
ii.Following Public Hearing and third reading – the applicant would be granted 7 months to
satisfy all conditions. If the deadline is not met, the file will be closed. This second deadline
will be clarified in the second reading report, once the Public Hearing date is known.
d)Citizen/Customer Implications:
The proposed timeline includes both a Public Hearing and a Development Information Meeting (as
outlined in DIM policy 6.20). Both of these meetings will give an opportunity for public input. It
should also be recognized that the nature of this proposed development will provide employment
and economic benefits to the community.
e)Alternatives:
The recommended approach is to support this request. However, given its lengthy timeline, Council
may prefer to allow this application to expire, whereby a new application would be required in order
to rezone the subject property.
CONCLUSION:
This request made by the applicant to rescind second reading is due to a change in the personnel
involved in the rezoning process. As this proposal is desirable for its addition to the industrial land
inventory, support for this request is recommended. Granting this request may offer the most
expedient process for advancing this proposal to final reading, as it will provide the applicant an
opportunity to complete this rezoning application, and importantly will provide the neighbourhood
with an opportunity to attend a Development Information Meeting and Public Hearing.

Dear Mayor and Council,
Re: Rezoning Application 2012-031-RZ, 11055 Hazelwood Street
On behalf of Camp Developments Corporation, I am writing to ask that our June 2015 application
for second reading to rezone from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to M-3 (Business Park) be
rescinded.
We still intend to proceed with the rezoning but our plans have changed. In consultation with
City staff, we agree it is prudent to have another Public Hearing so that the public has an
opportunity to view and comment on the proposed changes.
Thank you for your consideration.

FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: First Reading
Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7409-2017
11060 Cameron Court
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
An application has been received to rezone the subject property, located at 11060 Cameron Court,
from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS-1d (One Family Urban (Half Acre) Residential). The
applicant intends to apply the Density Bonus option within the RS-1d (One Family Urban (Half Acre)
Residential) zone, which is specific to the Albion Area, to enable the subdivision of approximately 19
single family lots no less than 557 m2 in area. A density bonus of $3,100 per lot less than 2,000 m2,
or approximately $58,900, will be collected by the Approving Officer at the subdivision approval
stage. As per Council Policy 6.31, a Community Amenity Contribution (CAC) of $5,100 per single
family lot created is also applicable to the subject property. The estimated CAC cost will be $96,900
for 19 lots.
Most of the subject property is currently designated Low Density Residential, while a portion of the
northern end of the lot where Dunlop Creek flows is designated Conservation. An OCP amendment is
not required to support the proposed RS-1d zone, but may be required after first reading to adjust
the conservation boundary.
To proceed further with this application additional information is required as outlined below.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
In respect of Section 475 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.Boards of Education, 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 City’s
website, together with an invitation to the public to comment;
1102
- 2 -
That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7409-2017 be given first reading; and
That the applicant provide further information as described on Schedules A, B, and F of the
Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879–1999, along with the information required for a
subdivision application.
DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context:
Applicant: WSP Canada Inc., Dexter Hirabe
Legal Description: Lot 1 Except: Part Subdivided by Plan 66748, Section 10,
Township 12, NWP61001
OCP:

Existing Use of Property: Single-Family Residential
Proposed Use of Property: Single-Family Residential
Site Area: 1.947 ha (4.81 acres)
Access: Cameron Court
Servicing requirement: Urban Standard
b) Site Characteristics:
The subject property, located at 11060 Cameron Court, is approximately 1.947 ha (4.81 acres) in
size (see Appendix A). The site is largely flat and covered by grass, while trees grow along its edges. A
single-family dwelling and workshop sit on the eastern end of the site (see Appendix B). Dunlop
Creek and an open ditch cross the northern end of the property, north of which the terrain begins to
slope steeply upward into adjacent properties.
- 3 -
The subject property is bordered by single family dwellings to the south and west, Metro Vancouver’s
Kanaka Creek Regional Park to the east, and conservation lands around Dunlop Creek to the north
(see Appendix B).
c) Project Description:
The applicant has requested to rezone the development site from RS-3 (One Family Rural
Residential) to RS-1d (One Family Urban (Half Acre) Residential) with a Density Bonus in accordance
with the Albion Area Plan to permit the subdivision of 19 single-family lots not less than 557 m2 in
size. Access to these lots will be provided from a new road coming off Cameron Court.
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
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 Albion Area Plan and is currently designated Low Density
Residential and Conservation. No changes to these OCP designations are required to allow the
proposed RS-1d zoning. However, an adjustment to the conservation boundary may be required to
accommodate the environmental setbacks from Dunlop Creek and a ditch on the northern end of the
property.
This application is in compliance with the following Albion Area Plan Community Amenity Program
policies:
10 - 4 The city-wide Community Amenity Program established in Section 2.1.2 Compact and
Unique Community will apply to the Albion Area Plan. A Density Bonus Framework
will also be permitted on lands designated Low Density Residential, Low-Medium
Density Residential and Medium Density Residential in the Albion Area Plan.
10 - 5 Where the density bonus option is utilized in a single-family subdivision, the density
bonus framework provisions established in the Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw will apply
to all lots that exceed the base density permitted in the zone, in addition to the city-
wide Community Amenity Program established in Official Community Plan Section
2.1.2 Compact and Unique Community.
10 - 8 A Density bonus will only be permitted on those lands that are located entirely within
the boundaries of the Albion Area Plan and Urban Area Boundary.
The application is also in compliance with the Zoning Bylaw that permits a Density Bonus option in
RS-1d zoned properties located within the Albion Area Plan. The applicant intends to apply the
Density Bonus option to this project, as discussed below.
- 4 -
Zoning Bylaw:
The current application proposes to rezone the subject property located at 11060 Cameron Court
from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS-1d (One Family Urban (Half Acre) Residential), with a
Density Bonus, to permit the future subdivision of 19 single-family lots.
The Density Bonus associated with the Albion Area Plan Community Amenity Program is detailed in
the Zoning Bylaw, which will permit the following:
For the RS-1d One Family Urban (Half Acre) Residential zone, the base density is a minimum
net lot area of 2,000 m2, minimum lot width of 30 m, and minimum lot depth of 40 m. A
Density Bonus is an option in the RS-1d zone and shall be applied as follows:
a. An Amenity Contribution of $3,100 per lot will be required in any subdivision
containing one or more lots with an area of less than 2,000 m2, payable when
the Approving Officer approves the subdivision.
b. The maximum density permitted through the Density Bonus option is:
i. minimum net lot area of 557 m2;
ii. minimum lot width of 15.0 m;
iii. minimum lot depth of 27 m.
c. Zoning requirements consistent with the RS-1b One Family Urban (Medium
Density) Residential zone will apply and supersede the zoning requirements for
the RS-1d zone.
Therefore, the Density Bonus option will permit the applicant to reduce the single-family lot size from
the RS-1d zone’s base density of 2,000 m2 to the RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density)
Residential) zone’s minimum lot size of 557 m2. The proposed development consists of
approximately 19 RS-1b sized lots (see Appendix D), and the Density Bonus for this application is
approximately $58,900. The final number of lots and Density Bonus will be determined prior to
second reading.
It should be noted that, as per Council Policy 6.31, a Community Amenity Contribution (CAC) of
$5,100 per single family lot created is also applicable to the subject property. The estimated CAC will
be $96,900, and will also be confirmed prior to second reading.
No variances have been requested at the current time. Any variations from the requirements of the
Density Bonus zone of RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) for lots less than
2,000 m2, or from the requirements of the RS-1d (One Family Urban (Half Acre) Residential) zone for
lots greater than 2,000 m2, will require a Development Variance Permit application.
Development Permits:
Pursuant to Section 8.9 of the OCP, a Watercourse Protection Development Permit application is
required to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and
riparian areas.
- 5 -
Advisory Design Panel:
A Form and Character Development Permit is not required because this is a single family project,
therefore this application does not need to be reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel.
Development Information Meeting:
A Development Information Meeting is required for this application because more than 5 dwelling
units are being proposed. Prior to second reading the applicant is required to host a Development
Information Meeting in accordance with Council Policy 6.20.
e) Interdepartmental Implications:
In order to advance the current application, after first reading, comments and input, will be sought
from the various internal departments and external agencies listed below:
a) Engineering Department;
b) Fire Department;
c) Building Department;
d) Parks Department;
e) School District; 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. We anticipate that this
evaluation will take place between first and second reading.
f) Early and Ongoing Consultation:
In respect of Section 475 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 City’s website, together with an invitation to the
public to comment.
g) Development Applications:
In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by
Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879–1999 as amended:
1. An OCP Application (Schedule A);
2. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule B);
3. A Watercourse Protection Development Permit Application (Schedule F); and
4. A Subdivision Application.
The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the
assessment of the proposal progresses.
- 6 -
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.
It is recommended that Council not require any further additional OCP consultation. It is expected
that once complete information is received, Zone Amending Bylaw No.7409-2017 will be amended
and an OCP Amendment to adjust the Conservation boundary may be required.
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 City of Maple Ridge’s Approving Officer.

WHEREAS, it is deemed expedient to amend Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510 - 1985 as

DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context:
Applicant: Bissky Architructure and Urban Design Inc.
Wayne Bissky
Legal Description: Lot1, D.L. 401, NWD, Plan BCP24521
OCP:
Existing: Low-Rise Apartment and Conservation
Proposed: Low Density Multi-Family
Zoning:
Existing: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential)
Proposed: RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential)
Surrounding Uses:
North: Use: Park
Zone: RS-1 (Single Detached Urban Residential)
Designation: Conservation, Low-Rise Apartment
South: Use: Apartment
Zone: RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment)
Designation: Low-Rise Apartment, Conservation
East: Use: Single Family, Senior’s Assisted Living Apartment
Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential), CD-1-00 (Comprehensive

Designation: Single Family Residential, Low-Rise Apartment
West: Use: Park
Zone: RS-1 (Single Detached Urban Residential)
Designation: Conservation, Low-Rise Apartment
Existing Use of Property: Vacant, except for a discontinued temporary Sales Office for
an adjacent development
Proposed Use of Property: RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential District)
Site Area: 1.425 ha (3.5 acres)
Access: 227th Street
Servicing requirement: Urban Standard
b) Site Characteristics:
The subject property is located on the west side of 227th Street, north of Hollyrood Avenue and south
of the gaming facility at 22710 Lougheed Highway. The site slopes gradually from 227th Street down
to the west and more steeply down to the northwest corner of the property. Dedicated park land
surrounds the property to the north and west for the protection of steep slopes. There is a four
storey apartment located to the south; and single family housing and a senior’s assisted living
apartment are located east of the site. A watercourse is located in the Park to the north and the 15
metre setbacks for it extend onto this site. There are slopes in excess of 15% on the site.
- 3 -
c) Project Description:
The applicant has applied to rezone the 0.55 ha of the southern portion of the subject property
(Appendix D) to RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential District) leaving the remainder of the
property zoned RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential). The applicant is proposing to subdivide that
portion of the subject property which will remain RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) from the
portion currently under application for rezoning. The applicant is proposing two 5 storey apartment
buildings with 1.8 FSR on the portion of the subject property under the rezoning application and
subdivide the remainder of the property for future development.
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
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 Town Centre Area Plan and is currently designated Low-
Rise Apartment and Conservation. For the proposed development an OCP amendment may be to
adjust the Conservation boundary.
The Town Centre Area Plan Zoning Matrix identifies that under the Low-Rise Apartment Designation
RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment) is an appropriate zone for the designation.
The Low-Rise Apartment designation is tended for development in a three (3) to five (5) storey
apartment form where units are accessed from an internal corridor and residential parking is
provided unground..
Policy 3-22 states that All Low-Rise Apartment developments should be a minimum of three (3)
storeys.
Zoning Bylaw:
The current application proposes to rezone 0.55 ha (Appendix D) of the property located at 11641
227th Street from RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) to RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment
Residential) to permit two 5 storey apartment buildings with a 1.8 FSR (Floor Space Ratio) and
subdivide the remainder of the property off for future development. The minimum lot size for the
current RS-1 (One Family Residential) zone is 668m2, and the minimum lot size for the proposed RM-
2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential zone is 1,300m2. Any variations from the requirements of
the proposed zone will require a Development Variance Permit application.
Development Permits:
Pursuant to Section 8.11 of the OCP, a Town Centre Development Permit South View application is
required for all multifamily residential, flexible mixed use and commercial development located in
the Town Centre.
- 4 -
Pursuant to Section 8.10 of the OCP, a Natural Features Development Permit application is required
for all development and subdivision activity or building permits for:
All areas designated Conservation on Schedule “B” or all areas within 50 metres of an
area designated Conservation on Schedule “B”, or on Figures 2, 3 and 4 in the Silver
Valley Area Plan;
All lands with an average natural slope of greater than 15 %;
All floodplain areas and forest lands identified on Natural Features Schedule “C”
to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of the natural environment and
for development that is protected from hazardous conditions.
Advisory Design Panel:
A Town Centre Development Permit (South View) Development Permit is required and must be
reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel prior to Second Reading.
Development Information Meeting:
A Development Information Meeting is required for this application. Prior to Second Reading the
applicant is required to host a Development Information Meeting in accordance with Council Policy
6.20.
e) Preliminary Environmental Comments:
A preliminary environmental review has concluded that a combined WPDP and NFDP application will
be required given steep slopes over 15% and proximity to watercourses on adjacent sites.
There are slopes on the western portion of the site that are over 25% based on Lidar 2014 data,
which will likely require steep slope conservation covenants or possible dedication. Slopes of over
30% extend into the central part of the site from the west and are the western portion and northwest
corner of the site. These sloping areas are not considered to be developable areas under NFDP
hillside policies and guidelines as well as Zoning Bylaw. As for most development sites, some
regrading will likely be necessary; however, filling these natural features will not be supported. The
development layout should work around these sensitive areas to work with the natural topography
on site.
The lands abut one of the most significant and natural ravine and creek systems in the Town Centre.
A visual aesthetic assessment for the top of the hillside area to the park and slope area respecting
building placement to avoid overpowering the natural setting from the ravine and park areas is
desirable.
There are associated geotechnical issues as well as setbacks being required on this site that
considers adjacent conservation areas, stormwater management requirements, and tree retention
objectives from an environmental perspective. Some watercourse protection setbacks along the
northern portion of the site may be necessary.
A Qualified Environmental Profession and a Geotechnical Engineer need to conduct an assessment
and ground truth the site to determine the developable area and the necessary conservation
requirements.
- 5 -
f) 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;
e) Parks Department;
f) School District;
g) Utility companies;
h) Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure; and
i) 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. We anticipate that this
evaluation will take place between First and Second Reading.
g) Early and Ongoing Consultation:
In respect of Section 475 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 City’s website, together with an invitation to the
public to comment.
h) Development Applications:
In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by
Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879–1999 as amended:
1. An OCP Application (Schedule A);
2. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule C);
3. A Town Centre Development Permit Application (Schedule D);
4. A Development Variance Permit (Schedule E);
5. A Watercourse Protection Development Permit Application (Schedule F); and
6. A Natural Features Development Permit Application (Schedule G).
The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the
assessment of the proposal progresses.
- 6 -
CONCLUSION:
The development proposal is in compliance with the OCP, therefore, it is recommended that Council
grant First Reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7401-2017. Additional information is necessary
from the applicant to determine the developable portion of the lands, understand how the
development layout should work around with and incorporate the natural environment.

West: Use: Apartments and vacant
Zone: RM-2 and RM-6 (Regional Town Centre High Density Apartment
Residential)
Designation: Low-Rise Apartment, and Medium and High-Rise Apartment
Existing Use of Property: Single-family residential
Proposed Use of Property: Apartments
Site Area: 0.267 ha (0.661 acres)
Access: Burnett Street
Servicing requirement: Urban Standard
b) Site Characteristics:
The subject properties, located at 11903 and 11917 Burnett Street, together make up a rectangular
development site approximately 2, 676 m2 (0.661 acres) in size (see Appendix A). A single-family
dwelling is currently located on each lot. The development is generally flat and vegetated with grass,
bushes and a few trees.
The development site is surrounded by four storey apartment buildings to its north, west and south,
and single-family dwellings to its east (see Appendix B). The latter row of single-family dwellings lies
just outside of the Town Centre Area Plan boundaries.
There are two recent and in-stream applications along the west side of Burnett Street south of the
development site. Council granted first reading to an application for a purpose built five-storey rental
apartment building on May 23, 2017 (2017-035-RZ), and second reading to another five-storey
apartment building south of that on November 28, 2017 (2016-145-RZ). Both of these applications
proposed around 60+ apartment units.
c) Project Description:
The development proposal is for a five storey condominium building with approximately 4,199 m 2
(45,202 sf) of gross floor area. It proposes 54 market condominium units comprising ten 1-bedroom
units, 26 1-bedroom and den units, and 18 2-bedroom units. No studio or three bedroom units are
currently proposed.
- 3 -
To meet the City’s housing and environmental sustainability objectives, the applicant has also
volunteered to include the following elements in the building:
Three adaptable units in the unit mix (one 1-bedroom, one 1-bedroom and den, and one 2-
bedroom unit);
Lease to buy option for five units;
A 350 m2 (3,800 sf) landscaped amenity space on the 5th floor roof with rain barrels to
capture water for the landscaping;
Dual flushing toilets in units to save water; and
Energy efficient appliances and LED lighting inside and outside the building.
56 off-street parking spaces for residents, including an accessible space, are located in one
underground parking garage. Five visitor parking spaces, including an accessible space, are also
located at grade next to the front entrance of the building. A bicycle room in the underground parking
garage provides 22 long term bicycle parking spaces. The project will be required to provide at least
17 short term bicycle parking spaces.
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
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 Downtown East Precinct of the Town Centre Area Plan.
The Downtown East Precinct serves as the eastern interface and gateway to the Town Centre. More
urban and pedestrian oriented development is desired in the Downtown East Precinct, which can
include medium to high density residential high-rise towers. This project, a mid-rise residential
building, conforms with the intent of the precinct guidelines of the Town Centre Area Plan.
The development site is currently designated Low-Rise Apartment and an OCP amendment is not
required to support the development and rezoning.
The following policies apply to this proposal:
Official Community Plan Policies
3-31 Maple Ridge supports the provision of rental accommodation and encourages the
construction of rental units that vary in size and number of bedrooms…,
Although incentives are in place to encourage purpose-built rental housing in Maple Ridge,
developers cannot be forced to operate rental units where it does not align with their business
practices. This project does not include any dedicated rental units, although units may be rented
out at the discretion of resident-owners and the building’s strata management. Nonetheless, to
maintain resident-owner rental housing, a covenant could be placed on title to restrict the
building’s strata management from restricting rentals in the building in future.
- 4 -
This project only includes one bedroom, one bedroom and den, and two bedroom units. No
studio or three bedroom units are currently proposed.
3-32 Maple Ridge supports the provision of affordable, rental and special needs housing
throughout the District…
As previously mentioned, this project does not provide any rental, affordable, or special needs
housing. However, the applicant has volunteered a lease to buy option for five units, which can
be a way to help renters to eventually purchase their units. Furthermore, Council recently passed
a resolution to update the Community Amenity Contribution policy on December 12, 2017. This
application is subject to the CAC contribution of $167,400 ($3,100 per unit) to be directed
towards affordable and special needs housing in the City.
3-33 Maple Ridge will encourage housing that incorporates “age-in-place” concepts and
seniors housing designed to accommodate special needs.
Residential units constructed in accordance with SAFERhome standards and with the adaptable
dwelling unit provisions of the BC Building Code (BC Reg. 216/2006, Division B, Section 3.8.5)
support “age-in-place” senior housing. Other projects in the Town Centre Area have volunteered
approximately 10% to 15% of their units constructed to these standards. The applicant has
volunteered three (3) units out of 54, or 5% of units to be constructed as adaptable units.
Town Centre Area Plan Policies
3-1 An increase in residential and commercial density is encouraged in the Town Centre,
particularly within the Central Business District… Land-use should include a mix of housing
types catering to various demographics, including affordable and special needs housing,
within walking distance to a broad mixture of uses, including shops, services, cultural
facilities, and recreation.
This project will increase the number of condominium units within walking distance to a range of
shops, services, and transit in and around the Central Business District. However, beyond one and
two bedroom units, it does not offer significant housing diversity in terms of unit types at this time
(e.g. bachelor or three bedroom units).
3-12 High density development that is four or more storeys in height may be required to
include a shadow study in consideration of adjacent sites to address potential impacts on
available daylight. Consideration should also be given to the privacy of residents in existing
buildings.
This project will be five storeys in height, but situated among four storey low rise apartments to its
north, west and south, as well as a row of single family homes across Burnett Street to its east. The
applicant will be asked to provide a shadow study.
3-15 Concealed parking structures are encouraged in all commercial, mixed-use, multi-
family uses… in the Town Centre. Below grade parking structures are particularly
encouraged for Low-Rise, Medium, and High-Rise Apartment…buildings.
This project includes an underground parking garage in compliance with this policy.
- 5 -
3-22 All Low-Rise Apartment developments should be a minimum of three (3) storeys and a
maximum of five (5) storeys in height.
This project complies with the height range envisioned by the policy.
In addition to these policies, a range of environmentally sustainable policies in the Town Centre Area
Plan would also apply to this application:
2-5 Incorporating Rainwater Management practices into on-site and off-site development will
be encouraged […]. Some examples of Rainwater Management practices include:
bioretention areas;
rainwater gardens;
bioswales;
landscaped curb bulges on street right-of-ways;
rainwater harvest for irrigation; and
green roofs.
The applicant is providing a landscaped amenity space on the roof of the building. In addition, rain
barrels will collect water that can be used to water the garden. The landscaped roof of the
underground parking garage will also be part of the site’s rainwater management scheme, but this is
already required by the City’s current bylaws. Further details as to the extent of the landscaped
amenity roof space and onsite landscaping and stormwater management scheme will be required
prior to second reading in order to assess their benefits in terms of rainwater management.
2-9 The use of plant and tree species that are suited for Maple Ridge climate and that will
attract local songbirds and pollinating insects species […] will be encouraged in public and
private development;
2-10 Landscaping, as described in policy 2-9 above, will be encouraged in all public and
private outdoor spaces in the Town Centre. For areas with a large amount of paved surfaces,
such as surface parking lots and public plazas, the installation of trees, rain gardens, raised
planters, and/or living green walls, where feasible, is encouraged to provide some areas of
refuge for wildlife, such as small birds, rainwater interception, cooling in summer months,
reduced glare from pavement, carbon sequestration, and a more attractive urban
environment.
The applicant is providing these measures on site.
2.20 Energy efficient design and Best Management Practices are encouraged in all
developments in the Town Centre.
2-22 Maple Ridge supports the green technologies that are embedded in the Town Centre
Development Permit Guidelines and encourages the incorporation of these into development.
2-24 Achieving a LEED, Built Green, or similar certification program is encouraged.
The applicant is including a minimal number of “green” measures, limited to energy efficient
appliances, LED lighting within and outside the building and dual flush toilets in all units. While these
measures are welcome, they are minimal and less than the intensity of “green” measures that were
envisioned by these policies.
- 6 -
In summary, this project increases the residential density within the Downtown East Precinct, and
provides for more one and two bedroom condominium units in close proximity to the central
business district and its shops and services. The project’s five storey buildings conform with the
intent of the OCP’s Low-Rise Apartment designation, and would be similar in scale to existing
apartment buildings to its north, south and west. The proposal’s unit mix and diversity is limited, but
does currently include three adaptable units, a lease to buy option on five units, and some “green”
measures.
Zoning Bylaw:
The current application proposes to rezone the two subject properties located at 11903 and 11917
Burnett Street from RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) to RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment
Residential) to permit the construction of a five storey condominium building. The building’s gross
floor area of 4,199 m2 (45,202 sf) achieves a floor space ratio of approximately 1.6, which is less
than the maximum of 1.8 permitted by the development site’s zoning. The minimum lot size for the
current RS-1 zone is 668 m2, and the minimum lot size for the proposed RM-2 zone is 1,300 m2.
At this time, the following variances have been requested by the applicant:
To increase building height from four to five storeys. In other applications around the Town
Centre, this variance has been supported in exchange for additional amenities such as
adaptable units, rental housing, affordable units, or other housing measures.
Reduction of the front, rear and side yard setbacks from 7.5 m up to 5.3 m to accommodate
balconies and increased floor space in some units. As stated above, the gross floor area and
density of the building is underneath the zone’s permitted maxima.
Any variations from the requirements of the proposed zone will require a Development Variance
Permit application.
Parking:
This project’s 61 car parking spaces (i.e. 56 residential and 5 visitor spaces) meet the reduced
parking requirements in the Central Business District of the Off-Street Parking Bylaw 4350 – 1990.
Two spaces for persons with mobility impairments are also included in compliance with the Off-Street
Parking Bylaw. It is however noted that the City has received complaints about parking from some
residents along the east side of Burnett Street. To date, the nature of these complaints have been
about parked vehicles blocking driveway access or sight lines to the single family houses, rather than
about a lack of parking supply. The City has increased bylaw enforcement along Burnett Street to
deal with these types of complaints.
22 long term bicycle parking spaces are provided in the underground garage in conformance with
the bylaw. The project will also require at least 17 short term bicycle parking spaces near to the main
entrance of the building. The location of these spaces has not been specified by the development
proposal at this time, and will need to be confirmed prior to second reading.
Development Permits:
Pursuant to Section 8.11 of the OCP, a Town Centre Development Permit for the Downtown East
Precinct is required for all multi-family residential, flexible mixed use and commercial development
located in the Town Centre.
- 7 -
Advisory Design Panel:
The Town Centre Development Permit must be reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel prior to second
reading.
Development Information Meeting:
A Development Information Meeting is required for this application. Prior to second reading the
applicant is required to host a Development Information Meeting in accordance with Council Policy
6.20.
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) Fire Department;
c) Building Department;
d) School District; and
e) 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. We anticipate that 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:
1. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule C);
2. A Town Centre Development Permit Application for the Downtown East Precinct
(Schedule D);
3. A Development Variance Permit (Schedule E);
The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the
assessment of the proposal progresses.
- 8 -
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.

City of Maple Ridge
TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read MEETING DATE: January 16, 2018
and Members of Council FILE NO: 2016-091-RZ
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: First and Second Reading
Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7416-2017;
Second Reading
Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7254-2016;
14155 Marc Road
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
An application has been received to rezone the subject property located at 14155 Marc Road from
A-2 (Upland Agricultural) to R-1 (Residential District), and R-2 (Urban Residential District), to permit a
future subdivision of approximately 109 lots. Council granted first reading to Zone Amending Bylaw
No. 7254-2016 and considered the early consultation requirements for the Official Community Plan
(OCP) amendment on June 14, 2016. The minimum lot size for the current A-2 Upland Agricultural
Zone is 4.0m2 (10.0 acres).
The proposed development is in compliance with the policies of the Silver Valley Area Plan of the
Official Community Plan (OCP). Ground-truthing on the site has established the developable areas,
and as a result, an OCP amendment is required to revise the boundaries of the land use
designations to fit the site conditions.
Ground truthing has also led to significant revisions of the original proposal that accompanied the
first reading report. The site plan accompanying this report, attached as Appendix E, proposes a
reduced lot yield and only single family lots (no townhouse units).
Pursuant to Council policy, this application is subject to the Community Amenity Contribution
Program at a rate of $5,100.00 per single family lot, for an estimated amount of $555,900.00.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1)That, in accordance with Section 475 of the Local Government Act, opportunity for early and
on-going consultation has been provided by way of posting Official Community Plan Amending
Bylaw No7416-2017 on the municipal website and requiring that the applicant host a
Development Information Meeting (DIM), and Council considers it unnecessary to provide any
further consultation opportunities, except by way of holding a Public Hearing on the bylaw;
2)That Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7416-2017 be considered in conjunction with
the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan;
3)That it be confirmed that Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No . 7416-2017 is consistent
with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan;
1105

January 16, 2018, be given second reading, and be forwarded to Public Hearing;
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 to Official Community Plan Schedule “A”, Chapter 10.3, Part VI, A – Silver
Valley, Figure 2 - Land Use Plan, and Figure 4 - Trails / Open Space,
iii)Park dedication as required, including construction of multi-purpose trails, emergency
access roads; and removal of all debris and garbage from park land;
iv) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for the Geotechnical, which addresses the suitability
of the subject property for the proposed development;
v)Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for the protection of the Environmentally Sensitive
areas on the subject property;
vi) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for Tree Protection;
vii) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for Stormwater Management;

Site Area: 30.079 Ha. (74.32 acres)
Access: Marc Road
Servicing requirement: Urban Standard
BACKGROUND:
A previous application for this site (RZ/008/09, not completed) proposed a development of 137
units, which is more lots than proposed by the current application.
A central feature of the Silver Valley Plan and the Eco-cluster designation is for the land to inform
development, thereby enabling the built form to be sensitive to the natural features of the land base.
The Plan’s goals are to preserve the character and features of the lands as much as possible and to
avoid wholesale regrading or blasting to enlarge development envelopes. Slopes in excess of 25%
should not be disturbed or built on. A complete assessment of these elements by this applicant has
resulted in a proposal of fewer lots than proposed in the first reading report, providing a better “fit”
with developable portions of the site.
b) Project Description:
The current application proposes to rezone the subject properties from A-2 (Upland Agricultural) to
R-1 (Residential District), and R-2 (Urban Residential Districtl).
The proposed lot yield includes a total of 109 single family lots with 28 R-1 (Residential District) lots
and 81 R-2 (Urban Residential District) lots. Large tracts of conservation lands enclose the site,
amounting to 23.7 hectares (58.6 acres) of dedicated parkland. In addition, a 0.31 hectare
neighbourhood park will be located in the centre of the developable portion of the site. The total
percentage of park dedication will be roughly 80% of the lot.
Trail development as indicated in the Silver Valley Area Plan will be constructed as part of this
application.
- 4 -
c) Planning Analysis:
i) Official Community Plan:
The subject properties are split designated Eco-cluster and Conservation (the smaller northern parcel
is also designated 46% Rural Residential). The Eco-cluster designation refers to the developable
portions of the site. Some adjustments in the designations have been made in response to ground –
truthing. These have been adjusted as shown in Appendix C, as attached. Section 5.4.6 of the Silver
Valley Area Plan speaks to Eco-Cluster densities, as follows:
a) Densities and housing types should be diversified within and between Eco-Clusters.
b) The densities of Eco-Clusters in the eastern sector should be lower than other Eco-Clusters
due to limited access and the requirements for accommodating equestrian activities, i.e.
pastures and stables.
c) An Eco-Cluster includes varying levels of density, ranging from 5 to 15 units per hectare, in
the form of single and/or multi-family units, dependent on proximity to a Hamlet centre,
slope constraints, view impacts, and existing development.
d) Residential areas should be developed in a manner to allow a gradual and natural increase
in density over time.
The Eco-Cluster designation is intended to provide development opportunities in sparsely developed
or rural areas, in a cluster form which supports sensitive implementation, minimal site regrading and
tree clearing, and integration of housing into a natural forest setting. Eco-clusters are located in
areas where topography is difficult, where view impacts need to be minimized, and where the
existing rural character should be retained.
The portions of the 30.0 hectare subject site that are designated Eco-Cluster amount to 18.3
hectares. For a site of this size, the number of units within the 5 – 15 units per hectare density
range amount to between 100 to 300 units. The proposed 109 units of this development are within
the lower end of this range. As this site is near the periphery of the Plan boundaries, adjacent to a
rural context, and to land that is within the Agricultural Land Rese rve, these lower densities are
supportable.
Agricultural Policies: The Official Community Plan also contains policies aimed at protecting the
productivity of agricultural land. The subject property is adjacent to Blaney Bog Regional Park to its
West. As this park site is within the Agricultural Land Reserve, policy 6-12 b) will apply, as follows:
Maple Ridge will protect the productivity of its agricultural land by:…
b) Requiring agricultural impact assessments (AIAs) and Groundwater Impact Assessment of
non-farm development and infrastructure projects and identifying measures to off-set
impacts on agricultural capability…
ZONING BYLAW:
The minimum lot size for the current A-2 Upland Agriculture zone is 4 hectares. The proposed R-1
(Residential District) Zone has a minimum parcel size of 371 m2 and the proposed R-2 (Urban
Residential District) Zone has a minimum parcel size of 315 m2. The initial proposal included some
multi-family development but has since been revised as shown on the site plan, attached as
Appendix E.
- 5 -
ii) Off-Street Parking And Loading Bylaw:
Single family uses generate a required off-street parking complement of 2 off-street parking stalls
per lot. However, the R-1 (Residential District) Zone permits a secondary suite as an accessory use,
which has an additional required parking complement of 1 stall. Parking considerations will be
addressed through the building permit process upon completion of the rezoning and subdivision
application.
iii) Development Permits:
Pursuant to Sections 8.9 and 8.10 of the OCP, a Watercourse Protection Development Permit and a
Natural Features Development Permit application is required to ensure the preservation, protection,
restoration and enhancement of watercourse and riparian areas, and for all development and
subdivision activity or building permits for:
All areas designated Conservation on Schedule “B” or all areas within 50 metres of
an area designated Conservation on Schedule “B”, or on Figures 2, 3 and 4 in the
Silver Valley Area Plan;
All lands with an average natural slope of greater than 15 percent;
All floodplain areas and forest lands identified on Schedule “C”
to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of the natural environment and
for development that is protected from hazardous conditions.
iv) Development Information Meeting:
A Development Information Meeting was held at Yennadon School Gymnasium on November 30,
2017. 38 people attended the meeting. A summary of the main comments and discussions with the
attendees was provided by the applicant and include the following main points:
Anderson Creek road emergency access would become road in response to traffic
demand.
Schools and commercial development needed in Silver Valley, more residential
development needed in Town Centre.
Impacts of Marc Road development on adjacent neighbourhood.
The following are provided in response to the issues raised by the public:
Municipal departments have agreed that the Anderson Creek Drive access could be
developed for emergency access only. This was not the original plan in the OCP,
which shows a fully accessible road. However, the proposed lot layout and road
pattern has been determined to be adequate for access and egress purposes.
This residential development proposal is consistent with the subject property’s land
use designation.
Lots proposed on Marc Road have been moved further south for tree protection and
reduced neighbourhood impacts.
v) Parkland Requirement:
As there are more than two additional lots proposed to be created, the developer will be required to
comply with the park dedication requirements of Section 510 of the Local Government Act prior to
subdivision approval.
For this project, there is sufficient land that is proposed to be dedicated as park on the subject
property and this land will be required to be dedicated as a condition of Final Reading.
- 6 -
d) Environmental Implications:
The site plan has been developed through collaboration with the Environmental Planner and the
applicant’s consultant team. The lot layout has considered conservation lands and tree protection
measures in its current form.
e) Agricultural Impact:
An agricultural impact assessment will be required, due to the proximity of the site to the Blaney Bog,
which is within the Agricultural Land Reserve. This requirement can be met as a condition of
subdivision.
f) Interdepartmental Implications:
i) Engineering Department:
Engineering comments focused on the need for servicing upgrades for road construction, sanitary
sewer, storm sewer, street trees, street lighting, and the watermain. As adjacent parcels will benefit
from the provision of this infrastructure, a latecomers agreement is proposed to reimburse the
developer for these costs when adjacent properties develop in the future.
ii) Parks & Leisure Services Department:
Both municipal and regional park department involvement have been sought, due to the proximity of
the site to Blaney Bog. Park dedication is required as a condition of rezoning.
iii) Fire Department:
The Fire Department agrees to allowing the Anderson Creek drive access to be downgraded to
emergency access only. Further input will be sought at the subdivision stage for the wildfire
development permit that must be approved prior to development occurring on the site. The
applicant has provided a preliminary wildfire hazard assessment. This work will need to be updated
upon review of the subdivision layout as a requirement of the subdivision application.
g) Intergovernmental Issues:
i) Local Government Act:
An amendment to the OCP requires the local government to consult with any affected parties and to
adopt related bylaws in compliance with the procedures outlined in Section 477 of the Local
Government Act. The amendment required for this application, to conservation boundaries, 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.
h) Citizen/Customer Implications:
The applicant has been consulting with the neighbourhood extensively as this application has
progressed. To meet the City’s formal consultation requirements, a Development Information
Meeting was held on November 30, 2017. A public hearing will be required as part of this rezoning
application.
- 7 -
CONCLUSION:
It is recommended that first and second reading be given to OCP Amending Bylaw No. 7416-2017,
that second reading be given to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7254-2016, and that application
2016-091-RZ be forwarded to Public Hearing.

2) Project Description:
The subject property is located in the River Village of the Silver Valley Area Plan and is approximately
0.78 ha (1.93 acres) in size. A single family home is currently located on the property and is bound
by a proposed townhouse development (2016-031-RZ) to the south, a proposed townhouse
development to the west, Larch Avenue and street townhouses to the north, and an existing
townhouse development to the east. Larch Avenue has recently been constructed in a new
alignment further north of the property; therefore, the adjacent road right-of-way to the north of the
property will be maintained as a trail. The north-eastern portion of the subject property is higher in
- 3 -
elevation and slopes down towards the south-west. There is a considerable amount of vegetation
and tree cover surrounding the existing house on the subject property (see Appendices A and B).
The applicant is proposing a townhouse development consisting of 31 units to be accessed from
236 Street. Double-car garages are proposed for 28 of the units, with the remaining 3 units
proposed to have tandem garages. A common activity area is proposed along the northern property
boundary. There are significant trees located on the western property boundary that will be retained
through a tree protection covenant. Retaining walls will be required to mitigate the grade changes
on site. The architectural aesthetics of the proposed development will utilize ‘West Coast’ inspiration
of incorporating natural environment into the design, and this will be the subject of a future report to
Council.
3) Planning Analysis:
i) Official Community Plan:
The subject property is located just north of the intersection of 236 Street and 132 Avenue, within
the River Village of the Silver Valley Area Plan. The Official Community Plan (OCP) designation for the
subject property is Medium/High Density Residential, which allows both single family and multi-
family housing forms. Silver Valley Area Plan Policy 5.2. states: River Village is located along a main
arterial route in the Silver Valley area, on Fern Crescent, between Maple Ridge Park to the south and
an escarpment to the north and east. Principle 5.2.2 a) identifies that the “River Village is to be a
complete community, with a main shopping street, integrated multi-family housing, mixed-use
buildings, civic buildings and community facilities, including a high school, and an elementary
school.”
Densities of 30-50 units per hectare are encouraged for the River Village area and may include
attached as well as detached fee-simple housing. The proposed RM-1 (Townhouse Residential)
development, at 31 units per 0.78 hectare, is approximately 40 units per hectare, and therefore
complies with the Medium/High Density Residential designation within the Silver Valley Area Plan.
ii) Zoning Bylaw:
The current application proposes to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One Family Rural
Residential) and RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to RM-1 (see Appendix C) (Townhouse
Residential) to permit the future development of approximately 31 townhouse units (see Appendix
D).
The maximum allowable density of the RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) zone is a floor space ratio of
0.6 times the net lot area, excluding a maximum of 50 m² of habitable basement area per unit. This
development has a floor space ratio of 0.58, so it complies with the allowable maximum density.
A preliminary review of the plans indicates that the proposal generally complies with the Zoning
Bylaw and the Subdivision and Development Services Bylaw; however, several variances will be
requested, as outlined below.
iii) Proposed Variances:
A Development Variance Permit application has been received for this project and involves the
following relaxations (see Appendix D):
1. To reduce the minimum front yard setback for Blocks 1 and 2 from 7.5 m (25 ft.) to 4.5 m
(15 ft.) to the principal building at its shortest distance and to 2.8 m (9 ft.) to the deck
2. To reduce the minimum rear yard setback for Block 6 from 7.5 m (25 ft.) to 5.7 m (19 ft.) at
its shortest distance.
- 4 -
3. To reduce the minimum side yard setback for Blocks 6 and 7 from 7.5 m (25 ft.) to 5.5 m (18
ft.) to the principal building at its shortest distance and for Blocks 2, 3, 6 and 7 to 2.8 m (9
ft.) to the deck.
4. To reduce the minimum required Usable Open Space per three bedroom unit with a
minimum dimension of not less than 6 m (20 ft.) for Blocks 1, 3, 5, 6 and 7 down to 4.5 m
(15 ft.) for its shortest length.
(Note that the shortfall of 26 m² (280 ft²) of Usable Open Space is provided in Community
Amenity Space. Overall, the required amount of Community Amenity Space is 155 m² (1,668
ft²) and 184 m² (1,981 ft²) is being provided).
5. To increase the maximum retaining wall height from 1.2 m (4 ft.) to 4.1 m (13 ft.) at its
highest point.
6. To increase the maximum building height for Blocks 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 from 11 m (36 ft.) to
11.8 m (39 ft.) at its highest point.
7. To reduce the required 3 m (10 ft.) parking radius arc for visitor parking stalls 4 and 6.
The requested variances to the RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) zone will be the subject of a future
report to Council.
iv) Off-Street Parking And Loading Bylaw:
The Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No. 4350 – 1990 requires that the RM-1 (Townhouse
Residential) zone provide two off-street parking spaces per dwelling unit, plus 0.2 spaces per
dwelling unit designated for visitors. There are 31 dwelling units proposed, therefore, 62 resident
parking spaces are provided and 7 visitor parking spaces, including one accessible parking space.
Some of the driveway aprons of individual units are also capable of providing additional off-street
parking spaces within the development.
v) Development Permits:
Pursuant to Section 8.7 of the OCP, a Multi-Family Development Permit application is required to
ensure the current proposal enhances existing neighbourhoods with compatible housing styles that
meet diverse needs, and minimize potential conflicts with neighbouring land uses.
Pursuant to Section 8.10 of the OCP, a Natural Features Development Permit application is required
for all development and subdivision activity or building permits for:
All areas designated Conservation on Schedule “B” or all areas within 50 metres of an area
designated Conservation on Schedule “B”, or on Figures 2, 3 and 4 in the Silver Valley Area
Plan;
All lands with an average natural slope of greater than 15 percent;
All floodplain areas and forest lands identified on Schedule “C”
to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of the natural environment and
for development that is protected from hazardous conditions.
Pursuant to Section 8.12 of the OCP, a Wildfire Protection Development Permit application is
required for all development and subdivision activity or building permits for areas identified as
wildfire risk areas, as identified on the Wildfire Development Permit Area map.
vi) Advisory Design Panel:
The Advisory Design Panel (ADP) reviewed the form and character of the proposed development and
the landscaping plans at a meeting held on October 18, 2017 (see Appendices E and F). Following
presentations by the project Architect and Landscape Architect, the ADP made the following
resolutions:
- 5 -
Provide alternate solution in case hedge row of trees won’t be saved during the construction.
Provide site sections to show transition including different types of retaining walls and
transitions.
Provide exterior stairs for exit and entry.
Show light wells where necessary for occupied basement areas.
Consider moving entrances forward where possible.
The ADP concerns have been addressed and are reflected in the current plans (see Appendices A
and B). A detailed description of how these items were incorporated into the final design will be
included in a future development permit report to Council.
vii) Development Information Meeting:
A Development Information Meeting was held at Yennadon Elementary School on November 16,
2017 and 5 people attended the meeting. A summary of the main comments and discussions with
the attendees was provided by the applicant and include the following main points:
Concern regarding the removal of the trees along the northern property boundary, adjacent
to the municipal trail; and
Suggestion that additional landscaping and trees within the municipal trail would help to
enhance the neighbourhood and keep the privacy.
The following are provided in response to the issues raised by the public:
Trees along the northern property line are proposed to be retained through a Tree Protection
Covenant; and
The applicant will not be providing any additional landscaping within the municipal trail.
4) Environmental Implications:
An Environmental Assessment, prepared by Keystone Environmental; an Arborist Report, prepared by
Van Der Zalm and Associates; and a Geotechnical Report, prepared by Geopacific Consultants, were
all provided as part of the development application. The north-eastern portion of the subject
property is higher in elevation and slopes down towards the south-west, where retaining walls will be
used to mitigate those grade changes. Vegetation on the subject property consists of native and
introduced trees, shrubs and grasses and the western property boundary has significant trees that
will be retained through a Tree Protection Covenant. A Natural Features Development Permit, 2016-
106-DP, will be the subject of a future report to the Director of Planning.
5) Interdepartmental Implications:
i) Engineering Department:
The Engineering Department has identified this application will require upgrades, including: curb,
gutter and sidewalk along the property frontage; road widening on the west side of 236 Street to the
urban collector standard, as well as the ditch enclosure along 236 Street; street trees and street
lights to be located along the property frontage, as well as new storm, sanitary and water
connections.
ii) Licences, Permits and Bylaws Department:
The Licences, Permits and Bylaws Department reviewed the development application and has
provided comments related to Building Code requirements which have been provided to the
developer. These comments will be incorporated at the Building Permit stage.
- 6 -
6) School District No. 42 Comments:
The School District has noted that the subject property falls within the Yennadon Elementary and
Garibaldi Secondary school catchments. Numbers for the 2017-18 school year indicate that
Yennadon Elementary is at 106% utilization, with 580 students, including 130 students from out of
catchment. For secondary school enrollment capacity, numbers for the 2017-18 school year
indicate that Garibaldi Secondary is at 75% utilization, with 795 students, including 258 students
from out of catchment.
7) Citizen/Customer Implications:
A Development Information Meeting was held on November 16, 2017. The results of the concerns
expressed at that meeting are discussed above. The Public Hearing will provide an additional
opportunity for citizens to express their concern or support of the development.
CONCLUSION:
It is recommended that second reading be given to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7211-2016, and that
application 2016-004-RZ be forwarded to Public Hearing.

FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: Development Variance Permit
21083 River Road
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Development Variance Permit application (2016-150-DVP) has been received in conjunction with a
subdivision application to subdivide the property located at 21083 River Road into two lots. The
requested variances are to:
1.Reduce the required Collector road standard, from 20m to 18.5m
2.Reduce the required building envelope, from 12x15m to 12x12m
A Preliminary Review Letter has been issued on the accompanying Subdivision application, and the
requirements are expected to be met shortly.
It is recommended that Development Variance Permit 2016-150-DVP be approved.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2016-150-DVP respecting property located
at 21083 River Road.

b) Project Description:
A Development Variance Permit application has been received for the property located at 21083
River Road (see Appendix A). The subject application is accompanying a subdivision application to
subdivide into two lots of approximately 703 m2. There is a significant tree in the north-east back
yard, which will get protected through a restrictive covenant for the root-protection area, as a
requirement for subdivision approval. No rezoning application is required for this subdivision.
c) Variance Analysis:
The Zoning Bylaw establishes general minimum and maximum regulations for single family
development. A Development Variance Permit allows Council some flexibility in the approval
process.
The requested variances and rationale for support are described below (see Appendices B and C):
1. Subdivision and Development Services Bylaw No. 4800-1993, Schedule A – Services and
Utilities: To reduce the road standard for Collector, from 20m to 18.5m
Services are established within the road as is. The applicant is also providing road dedication
of 4.5m to align with the adjacent property to the East.
2. Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No 3510 -1985, Part 4, Section 406 1: To reduce the building
envelope required in the RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) zone, from 12x15m to 12x12m
In order to protect the roots around the significant tree in the north-east back yard, a
restrictive covenant is required as a condition of subdivision. To establish a buildable area
around the root protection zone, a reduced building envelope is needed.
In accordance with the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879-1999, notice of Council
consideration of a resolution to issue a Development Variance Permit was mailed to all owners or
tenants in occupation of all parcels, any parts of which are adjacent to the property that is subject to
the permit.
- 3 -
CONCLUSION:
It is recommended that this application be favourably considered and the Corporate Officer be
authorized to sign and seal Development Variance Permit 2016-150-DVP.

SUBJECT: Development Variance Permit and Development Permit
22638 119 Avenue and 22633 Selkirk Avenue
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
A Development Variance Permit (2016-240-DVP) has been received in conjunction with a Town
Centre Development Permit application (2016-240-DP) to permit the future construction of two
mixed use commercial residential six storey buildings consisting of approximately 2,677m2 (28,700
ft2) of ground floor commercial and 138 residential units. The project is designed around a central
plaza consisting of pedestrian park and a parking area with 71 parking spaces for the commercial
units. The requested variances are to the following bylaws:
Zoning Bylaw No. 3510-1985, Section 703 Town Centre Commercial (C-3)
1.Section 703(8)(b) requires that above the third storey of a building, the distance from the
side lot lines shall be not less than 4.5 metres. The variance request is to reduce the
distance from the side lot lines from 4.5 metres to 0 metres. This will create the appearance
of a uniform building design for the entire city block; and
2.Section 703 (8)(a) requires that where a building is used for apartment use above a second
storey, the distance from the front and rear lot lines above the second storey shall be not
less than 7.5 metres. The variance request is to reduce this requirement from 7.5 metres to
0.5 metres. The proposed variance will create strong building orientation to the street and
reduce the tier distance between floors.
AND
Off Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No. 4350-1990
1.Section 4.1 (a) (iv) is proposed to be varied to allow tandem parking in the C-3 (Town Centre
Commercial) zone which may have obstructed access where the primary parking space is a
carport or garage and the obstruction is an intervening parking stall. This is supportable as
the development exceeds the required number of parking spaces and these tandem stalls
are in excess of the minimum requirement. The tandem parking stalls will be allocated to a
single unit via a restrictive covenant. The proposal requires 155 residential parking stalls
and 366 parking stalls including the 48 tandem stalls in the private underground garage,
that are provided for residential use.
Council will be considering final reading for rezoning application 2016-240-RZ on November 28,
2017.

b) Project Description:
The subject properties under application are part of a four phased development project which
includes a total of four mixed-use (residential/commercial) buildings varying in height from five to six
storeys, arranged in a quadrangle style with an inner courtyard.
The phase one building is currently under construction and the land is zoned C-3 (Town Centre
Commercial). The land for phase two and four are zoned RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) which
does not allow apartment or commercial as permitted uses. Therefore, the proponent has applied to
rezone them to C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) which permits both of those uses. The chart below
details the rezoning.

Phase three is also zoned C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) and requires a Town Centre Development
Permit, Civic Core Precinct, has just been received by the City, at this point the application has not
been reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel.
The form and character of the development will continue the building material, form, massing, style,
and colour scheme from the existing buildings on 226 Street, with some variation in material and
colour to maintain visual interest.
- 4 -
The comprehensive development plan includes an underground parkade spanning the balance of
the city block that will serve all future buildings. Two ramps to the underground parking structure will
be accessed from the internal lane, similar to the existing design for buildings located on 226 Street.
Building and parkade construction will occur in four phases, beginning in the north-east corner and
ending with the buildings along Selkirk Avenue.
Both the Town Centre Area Plan guiding principles and design guidelines speak to new
developments that create a pedestrian-friendly design and enhanced public spaces that ensure an
attractive, distinctive and vibrant centre. The developer has incorporated a central public plaza
integrated with some surface parking within the centre of the block (Phase two and four) that
provides landscaped green spaces, public art, seating areas, water features and routes for non-
motorized transportation (emergency vehicles access is permitted). Additionally, the pedestrian
realm also extends around the perimeter of the site along 119 and Selkirk Avenues, and 227 Street.
Canopies and arcades will provide weather protection, and new pedestrian amenities including bike
lock-ups, benches, street lighting and landscaping will be installed.
c) Planning Analysis:
Development Permit:
The Development Permit Application made to the City prompting this referral to the ADP is subject to
the Key Guidelines and the Design Guidelines of Section 8.11 Town Centre Development Permit.
Key Guidelines:
The following is a brief description and assessment of the proposal’s compliance with the applicable
Key Development Permit Guidelines:
1. Promote the Civic Core as the “heart” of the Town Centre.
The subject development is part of a larger multi-phased re-development that will revitalize the
largely vacant city block between the Town Centre’s two main malls, Haney Place and Valley Fair.
The building has been designed to foster a vibrant urban environment by providing sensitive design
to both street frontages, as well as a future central gathering space that will accommodate a range
of activities for the public.
2. Create a pedestrian-oriented, boutique style shopping district.
Ground floor commercial units sited at 0 m setbacks to the front and exterior side of the property
lines create an inviting pedestrian realm. Arcade features consistent with existing buildings on this
block provide weather protection for pedestrians and outdoor seating opportunities.
3. Reference traditional architectural styles.
The building’s architectural style reflects existing buildings in the Town Centre with the prominent
use of bricks as a construction material. Building materials include brick, which references the Town
Centre’s existing buildings and heritage. Additionally, the design echoes recently constructed
buildings on the opposite side of the subject city block and an “Old World” quadrangle desing set
around a Public Plaza.
- 5 -
4. Capitalize on important views.
Residential corner units are oriented to the north-east for mountain view opportunities.
5. Enhance existing and cultural activities and public open space.
The first phase of development will include a portion of public open space surrounding the ground
floor commercial units that will form part of a larger central space.
6. Provide climate appropriate landscaping and green features.
A rooftop indoor and outdoor amenity space has been included in the design with appropriate
landscaping for the enjoyment of the building occupants. Storm water detention facilities have been
incorporated into the project and plaza area.
7. Maintain street interconnectivity
Careful thought has been provided to street interconnectivity, with the creation of a predominantly
pedestrian east-west lane design through the plaza, as well as, around the entire perimeter of the
block.
Variance Analysis:
The Zoning Bylaw establishes general minimum and maximum regulations for Mixed Use
developments. A Development Variance Permit allows Council some flexibility in the approval
process.
The requested variances and rationale for support are described below:
1. Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No 3510 -1985,
a. Section 703 (8) (b) is proposed to be varied from a minimum above the third storey of a
building, the distance from side lot lines shall be not less than 4.5 m to zero; and
b. Section 703 (8) (a) is proposed to be varied from where the building is used for
apartment use above the second storey, the distance from the front and rear lot lines
above the second storey shall be not less than 7.5m to 0.5 m.
The proposed variances will create a strong building orientation to the street and reduce the tier
distance between floors and create the appearance of a uniform building design for the entire city
block which is supported by the following Town Centre Development Permit Guidelines. Similar
variances were required to accommodate the early buildings on 226th and 227th Street.
2. Maple Ridge Off Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No 4350 -1990,
a. Section 4.1 (a) (iv) is proposed to be varied to allow tandem parking in the C-3 (Town
Centre Commercial) zone which may have obstructed access where the primary
parking space is a carport or garage and the obstruction is an intervening parking
stall.
- 6 -
The proposed parking is in excess of the required minimum parking standards. The proposed
variance is to allow tandem parking configuration as the development exceeds the required number
of parking spaces and these tandem stalls are in excess of the minimum requirement. The tandem
parking stalls, all located in the underground parking garage,
will be allocated to a single unit via a restrictive covenant. The proposal requires 155 residential
parking stalls and 366 parking stalls including the 48 tandem stalls, that are provided for residential
use
d) Advisory Design Panel
The Advisory Design Panel (ADP) reviewed the form and character of the proposed development and
the landscaping plans at a meeting held on February 14, 2017. Following presentations by the
project Architect and Landscape Architect, the ADP made the following resolutions and the
applicants Architects response is in italics.
1. Use different colours of pavers.
"Added to the site plan are different coloured pavers. This includes the parking lots, pathways,
and areas previously scheduled as concreate or asphalt"
2. Consider using the same material to connect from 119th Avenue to Selkirk.
"The same coloured paving material is being used to connect 119th Avenue to Selkirk."
3. Provide a landscape design in the detention ponds to accommodate programs for all seasons.
" ‘All season programming’ in the detention ponds is the core idea behind the design. Storm
water management plays a key role in the sustainability component of this project. The two 30’
X 30’ storm water receptacles centered in the plaza. Captures the hardscape and roof top water
during the winter months. These storm water receptacles are at grade of the lawn, and are
meant to be beautiful centerpieces, with submersible lighting, like ‘pools of light’ in the water.
In the summer, because they will be dry. They function as gathering places, for several public
opportunities, Artist and craft people can have weekend display; neighbouring children can
stage art exhibits and puppet shows, dog lovers can stage dog shows, community evening
movies, and events pf all kinds reflecting the diverse cultural heritage of the area."
4. Consider having amphitheater style seating into the detention ponds.
"To enhance the summer programming and functionality of the ponds, amphitheatre style steps
have been added to the 18” deep pond."
5. Consider an active water feature for summer use.
"Existing in the design are Four "active water features" for all season uses. Two water features
flanks the trellis bistro area on the north side and the other two flanks the trellis bistro area on
the south side.”
- 7 -
6. Eliminate bollards and introduce pedestrian scale decorative light columns.
"Pedestrian scale decorative light columns were added at several locations
Location 1: Behind the benches. Double fixture columns.
Location 2: 119th and Selkirk double fixture columns with banners, for way finding and street
presence
Location 3: Along pathways and threshold points, single fixture columns
The removable bollards will remains situated on the interior lane to promote bicycle use while
minimizing vehicle use"
- 8 -
7. Coordinate with the City for the public art installation.
"Although many projects require a public art component, and sometimes partially funded by the
City, this project, is different.
For this project, the client offered the sculptures and further requested they become an integral
component to the overall design.
The ‘Tree Theme’ then developed in response to the idea of celebrating the history of Maple
Ridge. As noted on the City website (history section):
“On September 12, 1874, a group of settlers met at John McIver’s farm and decided that they
should incorporate and become a municipality.
The choice of the name came from the trees and topography of John McIver’s farm. There was
a magnificent stand of maple trees along the ridge that ran along the edge of the McIver farm
and followed the line of the Fraser River. This new municipality officially became ‘Maple Ridge’.”
Four sculptures, define the four quadrants of the design. The “Tree Theme” represents the
Maple tree growing on John MacIver’s farm.
- 9 -
It is the wish of the applicant to follow through with the character and theme of the sculpter as
represented on the design for the reasons identified."
8. Consider minimum 2 inches of poured in place rubber for and use a variety of colours for
daycare play area.
"Two inches of poured in place rubber using a variety of colours, will be added to the children’s
play area."
9. Improve accessibility to and circulation within patios where possible.
"Additional patio doors have been added to improve patio access on 2nd Floor."
10. Provide different laundry room layout.
"Revised laundry layouts provided"
11. Accentuate each residential entrance with its distinct canopy or port cochere.
"Decorative metal blade signs have been added above the main residential lobby entrances."
12. Provide gateway or way finding at entrance to the courtyard.
"Decorative metal signage has been added at the breezeway entries."
13. Consider varying silhouette at the roofline.
"The roofs over the breezeways are raised in order to establish roof hierarchy."
14. Provide variation of hardie and brick colour to achieve a rhythm at the elevations.
"A second hardie colour is added to select bays. Brick siding is raised at the breezeways."
15. Provide indoor amenity area / multi-purpose space where possible, such as in the vicinity of the
residential lobbies.
"Indoor amenity spaces are added adjacent to the main residential lobbies."
16. Consider further details in regards to the operative details of windows and the partition between
patios.
"All windows are operable. Privacy walls are replaced by thinner, 6’ high metal screens."
17. Provide a side light to all elevator lobbies.
"Glazing is provided to elevator lobbies and other large enclosed egress/exit paths."
- 10 -
18.Explore additional requirements for adaptive units to comply with SaferHOME Standards and
Section 3.8.5 of BC Building Code (adaptable dwelling units).
"Minimum 2’-10” doors are added to adaptable units. Other regulations are met."
The above noted changes to the design of the building and landscaping addresses the areas of
concern that the Advisory Design Panel expressed.
e) Financial Implications:
In accordance with Council’s Landscape Security Policy, a refundable security equivalent to 100% of
the estimated landscape cost will be provided to ensure satisfactory provision of landscaping in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Development Permit. Based on an estimated
landscape cost of $781,809.34 the security will be $781,809.34.
CONCLUSION:
A Development Variance Permit application and a Town Centre Development Permit application have
been received for the subject properties, located at 22638 – 119 Avenue (P.I.D 030-163-625) and
22633 Selkirk Avenue (030-163-641), to construct two mixed use commercial residential six storey
buildings consisting of approximately 2,677 sq. m (28,700 ft2) of ground floor commercial and 138
residential units. This application is subject to the Town Centre Development Permit – Civic Core
Guidelines as outlined in the Town Centre Area Plan of the Official Community Plan (OCP). It is
recommended that the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal applications 2016-240-DVP
and 2016-240-DP.

City of Maple Ridge
TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read MEETING DATE: January 16, 2018
and Members of Council FILE NO: 2016-274-SD
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: 5% Money in Lieu of Parkland Dedication
PID 217-967-546
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The subject property, located at PID 217-967-546 (see Appendices A and B), is proposed to be
subdivided into four single family residential lots (see Appendix C). This subdivision is subject to the
provisions of the Local Government Act regarding Parkland Dedication or payment in lieu of
dedication. It is recommended that Council require payment in lieu of parkland dedication for the
subject property.
RECOMMENDATION:
That pursuant to Local Government Act, Section 510, regarding 5% Parkland Dedication or
payment in lieu, be it resolved that the owner of land proposed for subdivision at PID 217-967-
546 under application 2016-274-SD, shall pay to the City of Maple Ridge an amount that is not
less than $67,100.00.
DISCUSSION:
Section 510 of the Local Government Act requires the provision of parkland, without compensation,
as a condition of subdivision, subject to some exceptions. The land, not to exceed 5% of the area
proposed for subdivision, may be acquired in a location acceptable to the City, or a payment equal to
5% of the market value of the area proposed for subdivision is required.
Section 8.9, Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area, of the Official Community Plan states
that where watercourse protection areas are identified on the lands, the area is to be dedicated into
public ownership as Park, where possible, for the preservation, protection, restoration and
enhancement of watercourses and riparian areas. These areas also provide large vegetated areas
in urban neighbourhoods that provide corridors for wildlife and passive park areas for residents.
Where there is either no watercourse protection areas (the subject property’s watercourse will be
put into covenant, not dedicated), or no suitable lands are identified for park dedication, then 5% of
the market value of the land is paid to the City. These funds are placed into a special Parkland
Acquisition Reserve Fund, for the purpose of acquiring parkland, and is typically used where the
ability to achieve parkland through development is limited, such as the Blaney Bog. In this particular
instance there is no watercourse protection area or suitable lands present and it is, therefore,
recommended that money in lieu of parkland dedication be provided.
1109
- 2 -
In keeping with past practice, the City has requested that an appraisal be provided for the 5%
market value of the development site. This appraisal is based on zoned but not serviced land.
A report from a qualified real estate appraiser and discussions with the City has determined that the
5% value of this property is $67,100.00.
CONCLUSION:
As there are no suitable lands on the property for parkland dedication, it is recommended that
Council require payment in lieu of parkland dedication as prescribed in the appraisal.

SUBJECT:Miscellaneous Finance Fees and Charges Bylaw Amendment –
Bylaw No. 7413-2017
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Pursuant to Section 194 of the Community Charter, Council may, by bylaw, impose a fee payable in
respect of all or part of a service of the municipality. Staff are recommending that Council deem Fire
investigation and incident report’s routinely releasable, and approve imposing a fee for the service of
providing fire incident or investigation reports,and motor vehicle accident and medical incident
reports as follows:
Fire Incident/Investigation Reports (including color photographs)$200.00 plus GST
MVA/Medical Incident Report $100.00 plus GST
RECOMMENDATION(S):
THAT Bylaw No. 7413-2017 be given first, second and third reading.
DISCUSSION:
a)Background Context:
In the past few years, Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy requests relative to fire
response records has steadily increased (see below). In 2013, as part of the 2014-2018 Financial
Plan, the City of Surrey introduced making these records routinely releasable, and began charging
fees for this service. Since this time, the cities of Burnaby, New Westminster, and Port Coqui tlam
have begun charging for this service (see below).

City of Port Coquitlam $110.00 $180.00
1131
Doc #1843704 Page 2
b)Desired Outcome(s):
To recuperate some of the staff costs spent processing requests for records relative to fire
incident/investigations, as well as motor vehicle and medical incident reports.
c)Citizen/Customer Implications:
As shown above other municipalities are charging for this service, and the practice is becoming more
and more common.Law firms, insurance corporations and fire investigation companies will be
affected by this change.
d)Interdepartmental Implications:
The request will be received by the FOI Coordinator who will arrange for an invoice to be sent by the
Finance department. Upon proof of payment, the FOI Coordinator will request the records from the
Fire Chief. Once the records have been received, the FOI Coordinator will redact relevant information
pursuant to the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, and release the records under
the signature of the Head for Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy .Should payment not
be received within 30 days of invoicing, the file will be abandoned.
e)Business Plan/Financial Implications:
The proposed fees do not include GST which will be added at the time of invoicing.Staff are
proposing that the revenue received be applied towards the records management budget in the
Clerks department.
f)Policy Implications:
An amendment to the Fees and Charges Bylaw No. 7137-2015 is required to add fees for Fire
Department records.Appendix A –Miscellaneous Finance Fees and Charges Amending Bylaw No.
7413-2017
g)Alternatives:
That staff continue to process fire records requests pursuant to the Freedom of Information and
Protection of Privacy Act where the only fees collected are those outlined in the Act.
CONCLUSIONS:
The fees and process change proposed for the handling of Fire record requests is becoming common
practice amongst municipalities. Staff are comfortable with the proposed fees reflecting the costs of
processing and will periodically review the fees charged by other municipalities to ensure our fees
are comparable with others.
