[_~·-·· mapleridge.ca City of Maple Ridge TO: FROM: SUBJECT: His Worship Mayor Michael Morden and Members of Council Chief Administrative Officer First and Second Reading MEETING DATE: FILE NO: MEETING: Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7526-2018; Second Reading Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7068-2014; 23500 and 23550 Larch Avenue EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: February 19, 2019 2013-087-RZ cow An application has been received to rezone the subject properties located at 23500 and 23550 Larch Avenue (Appendix A and B) from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) and RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) and P-1 (Park and School) to allow future development of approximately 19 townhouse units with 0.43 ha (1.07 acres) allocated for a future neighbourhood park and conservation lands. Council granted first reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7068-2014 and considered the early consultation requirements for the Official Community Plan (OCP) amendment on April 8, 2014. This was after a deferral to establish a better defined boundary between the portion of the site to be developed and the portion proposed to be developed as a neighbourhood park to the west. This was completed by the applicant and an updated submission to the City was made by the applicant in June 2016. Upon preliminary review, it was determined that the extensive use of retaining walls and some sloping issues did not comply with City standards and policies such as the Hillside Management Policy. Servicing plans showed that the project would be difficult or costly to service from Larch Avenue. It was proposed that the site be served by utilities being placed in a statutory right of way through the park. However, the proposed location was not acceptable because it impacted future park development and programing. Revised plans were received in May 2017. A number of technical matters were finalized between the City and the applicant's professional consultant team by the end of 2017. The applicant proceeded to hold a Development Information Meeting in March 2018, make an ADP submission a month later in June and addressed all remaining issues concerning designation boundaries and park amenities this year. With the boundary between the Townhouse Development, the Neighbourhood Park and the conservation area established, the bylaws attached to this report have been amended to reflect the agreed to boundaries. The applicant also offered to provide a voluntary contribution of $80,000 towards a child play area in the adjacent park. This contribution is in addition to the usual Community Amenity Contributions required for all projects. 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 Page 1 of 11 1101
designations to fit the site conditions. Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 7068-2014 has been amended to align with the ground truthed boundary. In addition to the Park contribution, pursuant to Council policy, this application is subject to the City-wide Community Amenity Contribution Program at a rate of $4,100.00 per townhouse dwelling unit, for an estimated amount of $77,900. 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 No. 7526-2018 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. 7526-2018 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. 7526-2018 is consistent with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan; 4) That Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7526-2018 be given first and second readings and be forwarded to Public Hearing; 5) That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7068-2014, as amended, be given second reading, and be forwarded to Public Hearing; and, 6) That the following terms and conditions be met prior to final reading: i) Registration of a Rezoning Servicing Agreement as a Restrictive Covenant and receipt of the deposit of a security, as outlined in the Agreement; ii) Amendment to Official Community Plan Schedule "A", Chapter 10.3, Part VI, A -Silver Valley, Figure 2 -Land Use Plan, Figure 3C -River Hamlet, and Figure 4 -Trails/ Open Space; iii) Road dedication on Larch Avenue as required; iv) Subdivision of the subject site into Townhouse, active parkland (to be acquired by City) and dedication of conservation areas, including construction of walkways, equestrian trails; and removal of all invasives, debris and garbage from park land, as required; v) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for the Geotechnical Report, which addresses the suitability of the subject property(ies) for the proposed development; vi) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for the protection of any Environmentally Sensitive areas on the subject property(ies); vii) Registration of a Statutory Right-of-Way plan with a servicing easement; viii) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for protecting the Visitor Parking; Page 2 of 11
ix) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for Tree Protection; x) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for Stormwater Management, including maintenance guidelines for the owners and strata council; xi) Removal of existing building/s; xii) 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 subject properties. If so, a Stage 1 Site Investigation Report is required to ensure that the subject property is not a contaminated site. xiii) That a voluntary contribution, in the amount of $80,000, be provided for Parkland development in lieu of the reduced neighbourhood park space and open space amenity on the development site. xiv) That a voluntary contribution, in the amount of $77,900 ($4,100/unit) be provided in keeping with the Council Policy with regard to Community Amenity Contributions.

A single family home is currently located on each property, and both properties are rural residential in nature with significant vegetation and tree cover. The properties slope gradually towards the south west corner, where the topography is at its steepest. An existing trail is located along Larch Avenue and an equestrian trail as designated in the Official Community Plan (OCP) is proposed through the conservation area to the south west of the development site. 3) Project Description: The applicant proposes to rezone the site in order to construct approximately 19 townhouse units accessed via a private strata road (Appendix E and F). Access will be by way of a private strata road extending southward from Larch Avenue. Two buildings are proposed on each side of the strata road containing the townhouse units. The majority of the parking is side by side with aprons. And a small portion is tandem all but one with apron parking. Approximately 2,439 sq. m. (0.6 acres) of parkland will not be dedicated, but will be purchased from the applicant. It will be purchased at fair market price with the portion of development cost charges revenue allocated for park acquisition. A further 1,824 sq. m. (0.45 acres) of conservation land will be dedicated by the applicant due to steep slopes as a condition of zoning approval. This will complement the neighbourhood park site as passive green space. The total amount of open space will be 4,263 sq. m. (1.05 acres) 4) Planning Analysis: i) Official Community Plan: The development site comprises of two properties totaling 1.17 ha (2.9 acres), and is located in the River Village in the Silver Valley Area Plan. Once redesignated (refer to table above), the development site is designated 16% Conservation (0.19 ha/0.47 acres), 63% Medium/High Density Residential (0.7 4 ha/1.83 acres), and 21% (0.25 ha/0.62 acres) Neighbourhood Park. The currently designated land would change as follows: • An 84% increase in the portion of the subject land designated Medium/High Density Residential (OCP 4,041 sq. m. to 7,412 sq. m.); • A 54.0% decrease in the amount of land designated Neighbourhood Park (OCP 5,300 sq. m. to 2,439 sq. m.); and Page 4 of 11 ~ r I
• A 2.2% decrease in the amount of land designated Conservation (OCP 1.937 sq. m. to 1,894 sq. m.). The proposed amendments have implications for these land use changes are detailed below. Medium/High Density Residential Implications: In order to permit the development as proposed by the applicant, an OCP amendment will be required to re-designate approximately 4,371 sq. m of the Neighbourhood Park and Conservation land to Medium/High Density Residential, representing an increase of about 83.5% in the Medium/High Density Residential designation of the site. This change trades off more density for a less neighborhood parkland. The parkland area change is discussed in the following section. As for the density, applying the Floor Space Ratio of 0.6 permitted in the proposed RM-1 zone, about 1,825 sq. m. of building space would be permitted for the amount of land currently designated Medium/High Density Residential and about 4,445 sq. m. would be permitted for the amount of the proposed land to be designated for Medium/High Density Residential. The actual development is to contain about 4,064 sq. m. or a gain of about 2,239 sq. m. as a result of the lands being redesignated to Medium/High Density Residential. The proposed designation boundary in the OCP Amending Bylaw (Appendix C) reflects the expanded Medium/High Density Residential to accommodate this proposal. The Zone Amending bylaw has also been modified for the RM-1 boundary to coincide with the expanded Medium/High Density Residential designation. Neighbourhood Park Implications: Community Structure and Parks: The Silver Valley Area Plan envisions centrally located parks in each neighbourhood. A portion of the subject site identifies such a neighbourhood park for the River Hamlet in which the subject site is located. This land use concept was developed through the public consultation process for the Silver Valley Plan, and is expressed in the following Plan policy: Silver Valley Plan Policy 5.3.4 Neighbourhoods (a) A Neighbourhood is a subset of a Hamlet, generally defined by a 200 metre, 2-minute walking radius from a central local community and/or park space and a transit stop. Topographic Constraints: The area designated Park is challenging with respect to topography. Programing typical for neighborhood parks would need to level all or parts of the site to balance between creating useable park space, the requirements of the Hillside Management Policy and measures protecting the conservation area abutting the proposed parkland. The latter two may be better addressed through residential development on the eastern portion of the lands designated Park while the western section of the site can be developed into a neighbourhood park. This is one of the aspects used to analyze the proposed change to the designation boundary. An area of moderately sloping topography exists in the north east corner of the proposed park area which will serve as the active park development site. Park Location and Size Criteria: The Plan establishes a preferred park size, suitable to be developed and programmed for the open space and park facilities associated with a typical neighbourhood park and serving a broad range of user groups, including safely accessible play areas for children. This assumes that the land for park development is relatively flat and can accommodate programing with Page 5 of 11
minor regrading, does not require ground retaining structures and is not constrained by underground or other services. The Silver Valley Plan policy defining the park location and size criteria is the following: Silver Valley Plan Section 5.3.8 Parks and Schools Neighbourhood Parks are 0.2 ha (0.5 acres) to 0.6 ha (1.5 acres) in size and should be within a 2-5 minute walk from a dwelling. These parks should provide an opportunity for social gathering, and will require appropriate amenities, i.e., benches, pathways, community mailboxes, and should include small playground structures where appropriate. Regarding the locational aspect of this policy, the resulting plan reflected this in Figure 3C River Village, illustrating that neighbourhood parks are at the centre of each neighbourhood, and are within a two minute walk of residents. With respect to useable size, this OCP amendment would result in a reduction of 4,327 sq. m. of land from the area currently designated Neighbourhood Park and 43 sq. m. of land from the area currently designated Conservation. As discussed in the previous section, the smaller area of Neighbourhood Park land proposed will allow more residential floor space to be constructed on land and will decrease the open space opportunity for the immediate neighbourhood in the River Precinct. Mitigating Impact of lesser Park Area: The Neighbourhood Park designation is proposed to be reduced by 4,327 sq. m. (1.07 acres) from 6,766 sq. m. (1.67 acres) to 2,439 sq. m. (0.6 acres). The resulting park area is still sufficient under the policy's area criteria. Further constraints on the use of the park have been minimized by shifting the statutory right of way to a location resulting in the least impact on the parkland development. Furthermore, due to the grades on the development site, the applicant is unable to provide all the necessary amenity space for the future residents within the project. Therefore, in consultation with Parks, Recreation and Culture staff, the following mitigation measures are agreed to with the developer: • The developer will not be required to provide all of the amenity on the development site; and • The developer agreed to make a voluntary contribution of $80,000 towards park development, including a child play area in the proposed Neighbourhood Park. ii) Zoning Bylaw: The proposal is to create a lot to be zoned RM-1 for a 19 unit townhouse development on the eastern portion of the subject site, with the remaining western portion being zoned P-1, RS-2 and RS-3 to accommodate a neighbourhood park and conservation area. The maximum density or Floor Space Ratio (FSR) for the RM-1 Zone is 0.6. This project is proposed to be 0.55, which is less than the maximum permitted FSR. The Zone Amending Bylaw, as amended, is consistent with the proposed Medium/High Density Residential designation on the subject site. Page 6 of 11 I Ii ,I
iii) Off-Street Parking And Loading Bylaw: Residential parking being provided complies with the requirement of two (2) spaces per townhouse unit (2 X 19 = 38 spaces) and 0.2 spaces per townhouse unit of visitor parking (0.2 X 19 = 3.8 rounded up to 4.0 spaces). As the parking requirement is in the range of 26 to 7 4, one (1) space is to be designed as universal parking. There are 12 units with two side-by-side garage parking spaces and 7 units with one garage and one driveway space in a tandem arrangement. The long driveways for most of the units provide additional parking and aprons. A total of five (5) visitors parking spaces are provided. According to the Zoning Bylaw, parking spaces in the driveway areas making being one of the two required parking spaces for a unit must be bounded by a landscaping buffer. The parking proposed to be provided has been determined to be sufficient for this development. iv) Proposed Variances: A Development Variance Permit application has been received for this project and involves the following relaxations: • The front setback (Larch Avenue) is being relaxed from 7.5 metres to 4.2 metres for the west end unit and 4.5 for the east end unit. This is justified because these units are designed to have a fronting appearance to the street; and • The rear setback is being relaxed from 7.5 metres to 3.0 metres for the west end unit and 4.5 for the east end unit. This is justified because the site has sloping restrictions that have been addressed through stepped retaining walls, increased side setbacks and more extensive site landscaping particularly in the southwest corner of the site to create sensitive grade transitions and better interfacing with the surrounding lands. Initially, the applicant was also asking for variances on the height of retaining walls. Efforts have been made working between the applicant's Civil Engineer and the City Building Department to incorporate a series of shorter walls in the proposal to terrace down the slopes in question. Some minor variance may be required, but staff is satisfied that the more significant variance will no longer be necessary. The requested variances, including any for retaining the proposed retaining walls, will be the subject of a future Council report. 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 8.12 of the OCP, a Wildfire Development Permit Area application is required for all developments and building permits within areas identified as Wildfire Risk Areas. The purpose of the Wildfire Development Permit is to minimize the risk to property and people from wildfire urban interface hazards and to further reduce the risk of potential post-fire landslides and debris flows. Page 7 of 11 L
Pursuant to Section 8.9 of the OCP, a Watercourse Protection Development Permit application is required for all developments and building permits within 50 metres of the top of bank of all watercourses and wetlands. The purpose of the Watercourse Protection Development Permit is to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and riparian areas. 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. 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 June 20, 2018.(see Appendix E and F) Following presentations by the project Architect and Landscape Architect, the ADP made the following resolution that: That File No. 2013-087-DP be supported and the following concerns be addressed as the design develops and submitted to Planning staff for follow-up: Landscape Comments: 1. Reduce the mass of the fence along the East property line through a combination of reduced fence height, lattice and/or other feature and vary the type, colour and height of landscaping along the upper tiered wall; 2. Consider adding a fence with a locked gate between the pathway of buildings 15 and 16 to address CPTED concerns at the dead end; 3. Provide units 7, 8, 9 and 10 with stair access to the service road so it can function more as a trail and reduce CPTED concerns; 4. Move the backyard tree for units 16-19 to the corner of the yard to provide more useable lawn space; 5. If possible, provide seating or other amenity features with paving bump out and benches. For example, planting between units 3, 4, 5 could be cut back at the service road to provide a seating/amenity area; 6. Show location of the future access from the development to the adjacent park; 7. Show guardrail or fencing along the edge of the retaining walls where required for safety; 8. Include a section of the West property line showing conditions between the service road and the adjacent park. Architectural Comments: 1. Develop the elevations on the facades facing Larch Avenue. For example, articulation of varying materials; 2. Provide an improved materials palette and composition; Page 8 of 11
3. Revise the roof exposure facing the interior street to reduce the amount; 4. Consider a gate or fence to unite the Eastern and Western sections; 5. Provide a better balance between the stone pedestal and wood columns above; 6. Review the location of the door for the powder rooms; 7. Improve weather protection at front entrances. The ADP concerns have been addressed and are reflected in the current plans. Some additional detailing will be required in the final development permit plans. A full description of how these items were addressed and 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 Eagles Hall on March 9, 2018. About a dozen people were reported by the applicant as attended the meeting, but not all wished to sign in. A summary of the main comments and discussions with the attendees was provided by the applicant and include the following main points: • Traffic: Presently Larch Avenue is considered to be a raceway and adding more cars will create a dangerous situation in the neighbourhood. • Parking: People apparently do not park in their garages, because they use them for storage. (Developers comment: The developer pointed out that visitor parking and long or wide driveways are being provided the reaction of some was people do not like to double park, but rather prefer to park on the street.) • Flooding: Neighbours living below this proposed development are afraid of surface water coming into their property. (Developer's response: After explaining the proposed storm water drainage and storage system, they were satisfied.) viii) Parkland Requirement: A portion of the site is identified as a neighhourhood park in the Silver Valley Area Plan. After consultation the Parks, Recreation and Culture Department and the Environmental section, land to become active and passive (conservation) has been determined. The active park area is to be acquired by the City. As is discussed earlier in the report, the applicant has agreed to make a voluntary contribution in the amount of $80,000 towards the construction of a child play in the park. Therefore, the townhouse development is being situated along the eastern portion of the site to respect both ground truthing for the conservation area and to allow land suitable for the neighbourhood park serving the wider area of the River Hamlet to be developed. 5) Environmental Implications: The proposed terracing concept for the retaining walls achieves the intent of the City Hillside Management Policies as well as satisfying the Natural Features Protection development permit area objectives and guidelines. This allows for the greening up of the slopes in between terrace walls. The City will need a basic planting plan for these terrace areas included in the development permit governing form, character and guidelines for this project. Any restrictive covenant for the extreme southwest corner of the parcel to protect the area being redesignated from Conservation to Medium/High Density Residential, will be assessed and determined as part of the third reading conditions. Page 9 of 11
6) Interdepartmental Implications: i) Engineering Department: A Rezoning Servicing Agreement will be necessary to address servicing deficiencies for this project. These will include: widening and improvement to the fronting road (paving, sidewalks, lighting, street trees, etc.), underground wiring and the conversion of existing overhead utilities, submission of a geotechnical study, ESC plans, Statutory Right of way to be registered for services and the submission and approval of typical civil engineering plans with fess and securities. ii) Parks & Leisure Services Department: The reduced park area for the proposed River Village neighbourhood park identified in the Silver Valley Plan is acceptable along with the voluntary contribution offered as described earlier in the report. Collection of the voluntary contribution and the acqusition of the neighbourhood park land (not the Conservation Area) are to be addressed as third reading conditions. iii) License. Permits and Bylaws Department: Comments concerning the compliance with the City Hillside Policy respecting the placement and height of retaining walls and site grading have been addressed. Remaining matters such as a Geotechnical Engineer confirming the feasibility of the stormwater management strategy, its registration as a covenant on title and securing the storm and sanitary sewer services serving the development through the park will be addressed as third reading conditions. iv) Fire Department: General comments were provided concerning matters such as Construction Fire Safety, access and turnarounds, accessible hydrant connections, visible addressing and advice on the safe building demolition and removal of building materials. These are either in compliance in the drawings submitted and reviewed to date or will be assessed at the building permit stage for compliance. 7) School District No. 42 Comments: Pursuant to Section 476 of the Local Government Act, consultation with School District No. 42 is required at the time of preparing or amending the OCP. A referral was sent to School District No. 42 on August 15, 2016 and their response on September 1, 2016 was: • The proposed amendment to the OCP would affect the student population for the catchment area currently serviced by Yennadon Elementary School and Garbaldi Secondary School. • Yennadon Elementary has an operating capacity of 545 students. For the 2015-16 school year the student enrolment is 57 4 students (105.35% utilization) including 114 students from out of the catchment area. • Garibaldi Secondary School has an operating capacity of 1050 students. For the 2015-16 school year the student enrolment is 688 students (65.49% utilization) including 348 students from out of the catchment area: 8) 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 4 77 of the Local Government Act. The amendment required for this application, (shifting and reflecting ground-truthing for the boundary between the Medium/Hight Residential and Neighbourhood Park Page 10 of 11
Designations), is considered to be minor in nature. It has been determined that no additional consultation beyond existing procedures is required, including referrals to the Board of the Regional District, the Council of an adjacent municipality, First Nations, the School District or agencies of the Federal and Provincial Governments. The amendment has been reviewed with the Financial Plan/Capital Plan and the Waste Management Plan of the Greater Vancouver Regional District and determined to have no impact. CONCLUSION: It is recommended that first and second reading be given to OCP Amending Bylaw No. 7526-2018, that second reading be given to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7068-2014, as amended, and that application 2013-087-RZ be forwarded to Public Hearing.

I ··W ~-··· mapleridge.ca City of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Michael Morden and Members of Council MEETING DATE: Feburary 19, 2019 FILE NO: 2016-109-DVP FROM: SUBJECT: Chief Administrative Officer Development Variance Permit 21137 River Road EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: MEETING: C o W Development Variance Permit application 2016-109-DVP has been received for the subject property, located at 21137 River Road, in conjunction with a rezoning application. The requested variance is to: • Reduce the road carriage width for an Urban Collector standard from 20 m (66 ft.) to 18 m (59 ft.). Council will be considering final reading for rezoning application 2016-109-RZ on February 26, 2019. It is recommended that Development Variance Permit 2016-109-DVP be approved. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2016-109-DVP respecting property located at 21137 River Road. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context Applicant: Mayur Mehta Legal Description: OCP: Existing: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Surrounding Uses: North: Lot 224 District Lot 249 Group 1 New Westminster District Plan 44587 Urban Residential RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) RT-1 (Two Family Urban Residential) Use: Single Family Residential Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Designation: Urban Residential Page 1 of 3 1102

The subject property is 794 m2 (8,547 ft2) in area and is bound by single family residential lots. The property is flat with a row of hedges fronting River Road. The subject property is now vacant. 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: 1. Subdivision and Development Services Bylaw No. 4800-1993, Schedule A -Services and Utilities: • To reduce the road carriage width for an Urban Collector standard from 20 m (66 ft.) to 18 m (59 ft.) for this section of River Road. An 18 m (59 ft.) road carriage width is sufficient for River Road, as the existing level of service currently provided by the road network is adequate. Any upgrades to the road network in the future can be constructed within the current 18 m carriage width. The applicant is also providing road dedication in the amount of 2.1 m (6.9 ft.) along the subject property frontage to align with the adjacent properties to the east. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: 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. Page 2 of 3
CONCLUSION: The proposed variance is supported because it is consistent with similar variances previously supported for the area, and will allow development in the area to occur in a consistent manner. It is therefore recommended that this application be favourably considered and the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal Development Variance Permit 2016-109-DVP.

I~--~-··· mapleridge.ca City of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Michael Morden and Members of Council MEETING DATE: February 19, 2019 FILE NO: 2018-448-RZ FROM: SUBJECT: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C o W First Reading Maple Ridge Heritage Designation and Revitalization and Tax Exemption Agreement Bylaw No. 7532-2019 12061 Laity Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: An application for the property located at 12061 Laity Street (Appendix A and B) has been received for a Heritage Designation and Revitalization and Tax Exemption Agreement (Appendix C). Under Section 610 of the Local Government Act, Council may by bylaw enter into a Heritage Revitalization Agreement (HRA). This bylaw may also rezone lands and vary the regulations of zoning, parking and other bylaws. Therefore, the HRA bylaw encompasses the rezoning and variances being requested. This site contains a heritage building known as the Gillespie House. This residence is identified in the Maple Ridge Heritage Inventory. The proposal is to shift the location of the Gillespie House closer to Laity Street, undertake its conservation and in exchange for its conservation to allow three (3) additional dwellings in the form of courtyard housing based on the RT-2 (Ground-Oriented Residential Infill) Zone. To proceed further with this application additional information is required as outlined below. The HRA Bylaw (Appendix C) contains the Heritage Conservation Plan (HCP) (Appendix C Schedule C) prepared by a consultant recognised by the Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals (CAHP), which is based on the Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada (the Standards). These standards were adopted by Council on March 24, 2009 and have been applied consistently to guide the conservation of all protected heritage properties in Maple Ridge. This HCP describes: • The historical significance of the Gillespie House (Statement of Significance or SOS); • The works required to successfully move and then conserve the Gillespie House; and • The character for the three (3) additional and new buildings to be compatible, yet distinct in from the Gillespie House, all within a broader Courtyard Residential design. The approval process is the same as for zone amending bylaws, requiring four (4) bylaw readings, a Public Hearing between second and third reading and addressing terms and conditions before adoption. Issuance of a development permit for the three (3) Courtyard units and a heritage alteration permit will occur concurrently with final adoption. The Community Amenity Contribution program contains a provision that the provision of a specific amenity, rather than a cash-in-lieu contribution may also be considered by Council to satisfy this policy requirement. One of the amenities listed in the policy is heritage conservation. Therefore, this project is not subject to the contribution. Page 1 of 7 1103
RECOMMENDATIONS: That Maple Ridge Heritage Designation and Revitalization and Tax Exemption Agreement Bylaw No 7532-2019 be given first reading; and That the applicant provide further information as described on Schedule D of the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879-1999 and Schedules Band C of the Maple Ridge Heritage Procedures Bylaw 6951-2012. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Legal Description: OCP: Existing: Proposed: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Zone: Designation: South: Use: Zone: Designation: East: Use: Zone: Designation: West: Use: Zone: Designation: Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Site Area: Access: Servicing requirement: Casa Realty Investments Lot 130 District Lot 242 Group 1NWD Plan 47517 (In Urban area boundary) Urban Residential Urban Residential RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Maple Ridge Heritage Designation and Revitalization and Tax Exemption Agreement Bylaw No. 7532-2019 , which is based on RT-2 (Ground-Oriented Residential Infill) Residential RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Urban Residential Residential RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Residential Residential RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Urban Residential Residential RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Urban Residential Residential Courtyard Residential 0.128 HA. (0.32 acres) 12061 Laity Street Urban Standard Page 2 of 7
b) Site Characteristics: The subject site located at 12061 Laity Street (Appendix A and B) contains a heritage building known as the Gillespie House. The property is flat and has ornamental-type trees in the front and side yards, with some coniferous trees in the rear. c) Project Description: The proposal is for a four-unit (4) Courtyard residential project (Appendix D), where one (1) of the units will be the existing Gillespie House (197.8 sq. m. or 2,129 sq. ft.). It is proposed that the residence be moved from its current location on the property to be more visible from Laity Street. Three (3) new dwelling units are proposed. One will be a single unit facing Laity Street with a driveway into the site separating it from the Gillespie House. The driveway leads to a courtyard area, with a building with two new units to the rear. The buildings are of a modest design, ranging between 263.3 and 267.9 sq. m. (2,834 sq. ft. and 2,884 sq. ft.), borrowing design elements from the Gillespie House to be compatible, yet different enough to be distinct from the Gillespie House. More design details will be available after first reading. The applicant proposes that the project be done in two phases: • Phase 1: Within 18 months of Council adopting the HRA Bylaw, the Gillespie House will be moved under the supervision of the Heritage Professional and placed on a new foundation closer to Laity Street; and • Phase 2: Once the conservation works on the Gillespie House are completed, the applicant will proceed with the development of the three (3) remaining units for the courtyard residential project. An HRA Bylaw will govern the conservation works and no rezoning will be required. The HRA Bylaw will apply the RT-2 (Ground-Oriented Residential Infill) Zone. Necessary Variances for this project will be included in the HRA Bylaw. 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 an assessment may result in some changes to the agreement language, and will require applications for a development permits and for a heritage alteration permit. d) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The project fully complies with the policies in the OCP to conserve and protect heritage assets in the City as follows: Policy 4 -40: Maple Ridge will encourage the conservation and designation of significant heritage structures, and natural and cultural landscape features in each neighbourhood. Policy 4 -44: Maple Ridge will endeavour to use tools available under Provincial legislation more effectively to strengthen heritage conservation in the District. Other planning tools will also be Page 3 of 7
utilized where appropriate to establish a comprehensive approach to heritage management in the District. Staff comment: The Heritage Professional has concluded that the Gillespie House is significant for its association with interwar development and the Late Craftsman styling detailing popular in the greater Haney neighbourhood. The Heritage Revitalization Agreement is the most effective tool to achieve the conservation of the Gillespie House and to accommodate the proposed Courtyard residential development. Secondary to the heritage policies, the proposed development is also consistent with other policies such as OCP Policy 3 -18 to increase densities on Major Road Corridors (Laity Street) in the urban area; OCP Policy 3 -20 to encourage infill development with projects like the one proposed; and OCP Policy 3 -21 to give particular attention to conservation of Heritage buildings that contribute to the unique character of a neighbourhood. Therefore, the project is fully in compliance with the OCP. Heritage Strategic Plan: The Heritage Strategic Plan contains a series of strategies and accompanying Actions respecting the management of heritage assets in Maple Ridge. The following Actions under Strategy 2: Heritage Management and Strategy 4: Historic Communities apply: • Develop an enhanced heritage incentives program, using tools enabled under provincial legislation. • Conserve heritage resources in each historic community. • Plan for the development of sustainable and vibrant neighbourhoods by building on the character, amenities and historic infrastructure of existing neighbourhoods. Staff Comment: The Gillespie House represents the style of housing prevalent in the greater Haney neighbourhood in the interwar period, while retaining details that were not ordinary reflected due to the economic austerity in that period. The proposed development not only facilitates retention, but will result in a project that takes on some of the element of the Gillespie House to build character and enhance the vibrancy of the surrounding neighbourhood. The proposal is fully in compliance with the Heritage Strategic Plan. HRA Bylaw: The Gillespie House situated at 12061 Laity Street has been identified in the Maple Rige Heritage Inventory for conservation due to its heriage value and heritage character. Therefore, the property is proposed to be subject to Maple Ridge Heritage Designation and Revitalization and Tax Exemption Agreement Bylaw No. 7532-2019 (HRA Bylaw). This bylaw has the following components: 1. Conservation Component: The Gillespie House will undergo conservation works in accordance with a Heritage Conservation Plan. This Plan is attached to the HRA Bylaw No. 7532-2019 (see Appendix C, Schedule C). The proposed conservation works are fully in compliance with the Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada. 2. Rezoning Component: The HRA Bylaw will over-ride the exsisting RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Zone to apply RT-2 (Ground-Oriented Residential Infill) Zoning regulations as Page 4 of 7
varied by the HRA. In exchange for conserving the heritage residence, the HRA bylaw provides for the RT-2 (Ground-Oriented Residential Infill) Zone to be applied to the lands (Appendix C Schedule F) as follows: • The RT-2 zone will allow four (4) dwelling units, one of which is the Gillespie House, on the subject site as a Courtyard Residential development; and • HRA proposes to vary the zone requirement for setback and allowing up to 50 sq. m. of basement area per dwelling to be exempted from the from the Floor Space Ratio (FSR) calculation. This is a provision from the RM-1 Zone that the applicant is requesting apply in exchange for the efforts to conserve the Gillespie House. This is supported by staff. 3. Heritage Designation Component: The Gillespie House and the portion of the subject site upon which it is located will become a Designated Heritage Site (Appendix C Schedule G) under the provisions of the Local Government Act Section 611. This provides certain protection such as preventing demolitions and benefits such as financial incentives; and 4. Heritage Tax Exemption Component: Through designation, the Gillespie House may be granted a municipal tax exemption for a fixed time period (5 years being proposed) under the Community Charter Act Section 225. Permit Requirements: Form and Character Development Permit Pursuant to Section 8.7 of the OCP, a Multi-Family Development Permit application is required for the 3 courtyard units to ensure the current proposal enhances existing neighbourhoods with compatible housing styles that meet diverse needs, and minimize potential conflicts with neighbouring land uses. This permit will apply to the design of the three courtyard units, parking and site landscaping, including any stormwater management incorporated into the landscaping. Heritage Alteration Permit: Pursuant to Section 15 of the Maple Ridge Heritage Procedures Bylaw 6951-2012, a Heritage Alteration Permit application is required for all heritage conservation projects. Advisory Design Panel: The Multi-Family Development Permit is required to be submitted for review by the Advisory Design Panel prior to Second Reading. The submission will include information about the conservation of the Gillespie House in assessing form and character in the context of the Character Defining Element Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting is not required for this application because the project has less than the number of units requiring such a developer-held meeting in Council Policy 6.20 and is compliant with the OCP. 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: Page 5 of 7 r l-
a) Engineering Department; b) Operations Department; c) Fire Department; d) Building Department; e) Parks Department; f) School District; g) Utility companies; and h) 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: 1. A complete Heritage Revitalization Agreement Application (Schedule B in accordance with the Maple Ridge Heritage Procedures Bylaw No. 6951-2012); 2. A Heritage Alteration Permit Application (Schedule C in accordance with the Maple Ridge Heritage Procedures Bylaw No. 6951-2012); 3. A Multi-Family Residential Development Permit Application (Schedule D in accordance with the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879-1999 as amended). In addition, landscaping plans coordinating the two phases of the development and incorporating Tier A of the sit's stormwater management plan is required to be submitted. Minor changes in the Agreement may be necessary once the additional information is submitted and reviewed by the City. The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the assessment of the proposal progresses. CONCLUSION: This Heritage Revitalization Agreement application proposes to conserve the Gillespie House by moving the residence to a more prominent location on its historic parcel to allow for greater appreciation from the public realm. In exchange for its conservation, the developer with gain three (3) new dwelling units, incorporated with the relocated Gillespie House, to result in a Courtyard Residential Development. This increase in density is consistent with the infill policies of the OCP. This development is to have a design that is sensitive both to the heritage character of the Gillespie House and is compatible with the surrounding residential neighbourhood. A sensitive infill development will be achieved through the development permit and heritage alteration permit associated with the approval of the HRA Bylaw. This will achieve the applicable strategies in the Maple Ridge Heritage Strategic Plan. Page 6 of 7
This 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.

1.0 INTRODUCTION HISTORIC NAME: Gillespie Residence CIVIC ADDRESS: ORIGINAL OWNERS: 12061 Laity Street, Maple Ridge, BC William Francis Gillespie DATE OF CONSTRUCTION: 1929 The one and one-half storey Craftsman-style house is typical of the simple bungalows built in the late 1920s and 1930s, which demonstrate the austerity of the local economy at the time. The house features a side-gabled roofline with a flat-roofed porch with square columns, double-hung windows and glazed front entry door. It was built for the Gillespie family in 1929, at the time that William Gillespie was hired as the local agent for the B.C. Electric Railway Company. It is typical of the growth seen to the west of the Haney area due to the expansion of the local road network. An overall rehabilitation scheme has been prepared as part of a larger infill developement scheme on the site . This Conservation Plan is based on Parks Canada's Standards & Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada. It outlines the preservation, restoration, and rehabilitation that will occur as part of the proposed development.

2 2. 0 HISTORIC CONTEXT Downtown Haney, looking west during the flood of 1948. [Maple Ridge Museum & Archives ?07068] GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PU\N I JUNE 2018
By 1874, several small communities had sprung up, consisting of a few families each, on the north side of the Fraser River in the areas that would become The Ridge, Port Haney, Port Hammond, Pitt Meadows, Whonnock,Ruskin and Albion. One of the problems of smaller communities is that they remain isolated unless some means is found to connect them. These early settlements, sometimes less than a handful of homes, were at the river's shore, when water was the only practical method of transportation. The arrival of the Canadian Pacific Railway, with stations at Port Hammond and Port Haney, provided much more convenient access between Port Hammond and Port Haney. In 1930, after the completion of the Lougheed Highway, 'Haney' became the dominant name for the residential and business area along the new highway between Pitt Meadows and Kanaka Creek. The area between the two communities was known as The Ridge. This modest residence was built for Mrs. and Mrs. William F. Gillespie, after William Gillespie was hired as the local agent and representative for the B.C. Electric Railway. The Gillespies acquired the lot from Eliza Moore Burnett, a local school teacher. Burnett was known to have contracted other houses in the area; it is unknown if the listed contractor "Mr. Burnett" was. related to Eliza Burnett. The Gillespie family owned the house until 1940, when it was purchased by the Orro family who owned it for four decades.

This Late Craftsman-style house was constructed during the interwar period, and features a side-gabled roof, a flat-roofed porch with square columns, double-hung windows and a glazed front entry door. Heritage Value of the Historic Place Constructed in 1929, the Gillespie Residence is significant for its association with the interwar development of the greater Haney neighbourhood. It is typical of the modest family houses constructed west of Haney to support the growing population that was facilitated by the expansion of the local road network. The Gillespie Residence is a small bungalow that displays vernacular Late Craftsman style detailing, popular during the 1920s but typically more restrained than pre~war examples, reflecting the economic austerity ofthe times. Character-Defining Elements The elements that define the heritage character of the Gillespie Residence include its: • location on Laity Street in The Ridge neighbourhood; • continuous residential use; • residential form, scale and massing as expressed by its one and one-half storey height, side-gabled roof, front shed dormer, · flat-roofed entry porch with square columns, and full basement; • wood-frame construction including: lapped wooden siding with cornerboards; intermediate fascia between main floor and gable cladding; and dimensional wood window and door trim; • Late Craftsman influenced design including side-gabled roof with open soffits and exposed purlins, and symmetrical design; • variety of original wooden sash windows, including double-hung windows in single and double assembly; • glazed front entry door; and • one internal red brick chimney.

4.0 CONSERVATION GUIDELINES 4.1 STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES The Gillespie Residence is a significant historical resource in the City of Maple Ridge. The Parks Canada's Standards & Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada is the source used to assess the appropriate level of conservation and intervention. Under the Standards & Guidelines, the work proposed for the Gillespie Residence includes aspects of preservation, restoration, and rehabilitation. Preservation: the action or process of protecting, maintaining, and/or stabilizing the existing materials, form, and integrity of a historic place or of an individual component, while protecting its heritage value. Restoration: the action or process of accurately revealing, recovering or representing the state of a historic place or of an individualcomponent, as it appeared at a particular period in its history, while protecting its heritage value. Rehabilitation: the action or process of making possible a continuing or compatible contemporary use of a historic place or an individual component, through repair, alterations, and/or additions, while protecting its heritage value. Interventions to the Gillespie Residence should be based upon the Standards outlined in the Standards & Guidelines, which are conservation principles of best practice. The following General Standards should be followed when carrying out any work to an historic property. STANDARDS Standards relating to all Conservation Projects 1. Conserve the heritage value of a historic place. Do not remove, replace, or substantially alter its intact or repairable character-defining elements. Do not move a part of a historic place if its current location is a character-defining element. 2. Conserve changes to a historic place, which over time, have become character-defining elements in their own right. 3. Conserve heritage value by adopting an approach calling for minimal intervention. 4. Recognize each historic place as a physical record of its time, place and use. Do not create a false sense of historical development by adding elements from other historic places or other properties or by combining features of the same property that never coexisted. 5. Find a use for a historic place that requires minimal or no change to its character defining elements. 6. Protect and, if necessary, stabilize a historic place until any subsequent in.tervention is undertaken. Protect and preserve archaeological resources in place. Where there is potential for disturbance of archaeological resources, take mitigation measures to limit damage and loss of information. 7. Evaluate the existing condition of character-defining element to determine the appropriate intervention needed. Use the gentlest means possible for any intervention. Respect heritage value when undertaking an intervention. 8. Maintain character-defining elements on an ongoing basis. Repair character-defining element by reinforcing the materials using recognized conservation methods. Replace in kind any extensively deteriorated or missing parts of character-defining elements, where there are surviving prototypes. GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLAN I JUNE 2018 5
6 9. Make any intervention needed to preserve character-defining elements physically and visually compatible with the historic place and identifiable upon close inspection. Document any intervention for future reference. Additional Standards relating to Rehabilitation 10. Repair rather than replace character-defining elements. Where character-defining elements are too severely deteriorated to repair, and where sufficient physical evidence exists, replace them with new elements that match the forms, materials and detailing of sound versions of the same elements. Where there is insufficient physical evidence, make the form, material and detailing of the new elements compatible with the character of the historic place. 11. Conserve the heritage value and character-defining elements when creating any new additions to a historic place and any related new construction. Make the new work physically and visually compatible with, subordinate to and distinguishable from the historic place. 12. Create any new additions or related new construction so that the essential form and integrity of a historic place will not be impaired if the new work is removed in the future. Additional Standards relating to Restoration 13. Repair rather than replace character-defining elements from the restoration period. Where character-defining elements are too severely deteriorated to repair and where sufficient physical evidence exists, replace them with new elements that match the forms, materials and detailing of sound versions of the same elements. 14. Replace missing features from the restoration period with new features whose forms, materials and detailing are based on sufficient physical, documentary and/or oral evidence.

As part of the scope of work, character-defining elements will be preserved, while missing or deteriorated elements will be restored. Proposed Redevelopment Scheme An overall rehabilitation scheme has been prepared as part of a larger infill developement scheme on the site, which includes the relocation of the Gillespie Residence within the. property site, and the construction of three infill dwellings with a garden suite below. All new visible construction and proposed addition to the historic asset should be considered a modern addition to the historic structure. The Standards & Guidelines list recommendations for new additions to historic places. The proposed design scheme should follow these principles: • Designing a new addition in a manner that draws a clear distinction between what is historic and what is new. l • Design for the new work may be contemporary or may reference design motifs from the historic place. In either case, it should be compatible in terms of mass, materials, relationship of solids to voids, and colour, yet be distinguishable from the historic place. • The new additions should be physically and visually compatible with, subordinate to and distinguishable from the preserved historic fa<;ade. An addition should be subordinate to the historic place. This is best understood to mean that the addition must not detract from the historic place or impair its heritage value. Subordination is not a question of size; a small, ill-conceived addition could adversely affect an historic place more than a large, well-designed addition. Additions or new construction should be visually compatible with, yet distinguishable from, the historic place. To accomplish this, an appropriate balance must be struck between mere imitation of the existing form and pointed contrast; thus complementing the historic place in a manner that respects its heritage value. Relocation of Historic Building The relocation of an historic building on an existing lot is the least intrusive relocation approach with regards to loss of historic context and invasive work to t.he structure. The following Relocation Guidelines should be implemented for the relocation of the Gillespie Residence: • A relocation plan should be prepared prior to relocation that ensures that the least destructive method of relocation will be used. • Alterations to the historic structure proposed to further the relocation process should be evaluated in accordance with the Conservation Plan and reviewed by the Heritage Consultant. GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLAN I JUNE 2018 7
8 This can involve removal of later additions that are not enhancing the heritage value and historic appearance of the heritage house; for example, the concrete corner addition. • Only an experienced and qualified contractor shall undertake the physical relocation of the historic structure. • Preserve historic fabric of the exterior elevations including the wood-frame structure with stucco siding, wood sash windows and roof structure as much as possible. Preserve brick chimney in situ, and relocate with the main structure if possible. Alternatively reconstruct chimney with salvaged bricks to match historic appearance, if unable to relocate with the historic building due to structural reasons. • Appropriate foundation materials shall be used at the new site, which can include reinforced concrete foundations and floor slab. The final relative location to grade should match the original as closely as possible, taking into account applicable codes. • Provide utility installations for electricity, communication and other service connections underground if possible. All installations located above ground should be incorporated harmoniously into the design concept for the relocated structure. 4.4 SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY Heritage conservation and sustainable development can go hand in hand with the mutual effort of all stakeholders. In a practical context, the conservation and re-use of historic and existing structures contributes to environmental sustainability by reducing solid waste disposal, saving embodied energy, and conserving historic materials that are often less consumptive of energy than many new replacement materials. C01'1SERVATl0l'I GUIDELINES In 2016, the Federal Provincial Territorial Ministers of Culture & Heritage in Canada (FPTMCHC) published a document entitled, Building Resilience: Practical Guidelines for the Retrofit and Rehabilitation of Buildings in Canada that is "intended to establish a common pan-Canadian 'how-to' approach for practitioners, professionals, building owners, and operators alike." The following is an excerpt from the introduction of the document: [Building Resilience] is intended to serve as a "sustainable building toolkit" that will enhance understanding of the environmental benefits of heritage conservation and of the strong interrelationship between natural and built heritage conservation. Intended as a useful set of best practices, the guidelines in Building Resilience can be applied to existing and traditionally constructed buildings as well as formally recognized heritage places. These guidelines are primarily aimed at assisting designers, owners, and builders in providing existing buildings with increased levels of sustainability while protecting character-defining elements and, thus, their heritage value. The guidelines are also intended for a broader audience of architects, building developers, owners, custodians and managers, contractors, crafts and trades people, energy advisers and sustainability specialists, engineers, heritage professionals, and officials responsible for built heritage and the existing built environment at all jurisdictional levels. GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLAN I JUNE 2018 I-
co~,/SERVAllON GUIDELINES Building Resilience is not meant to provide case-specific advice. It is intended to provide guidance with some measure of flexibility, acknowledging the difficulty of evaluating the impact of every scenario and the realities of projects where buildings may contain inherently sustainable elements but limited or no heritage value. Al/interventions must be evaluated based on their unique context, on a case-by-case basis, by experts equipped with the necessary knowledge and experience to ensure a balanced consideration of heritage value and sustainable rehabilitation measures. Building Resilience can be read as a stand-alone document, but it may also further illustrate and build on the sustainability considerations in the Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada. 4.5 ALTERNATE COMPLIANCE As a listed heritage building, the Gillespie Residence may eligible for heritage variances that will enable a higher degree of heritage conservation and retention of original material, including considerations available under the following municipal legislation. 4.5. 7 BRITISH COLUMBIA BUILDING CODE Building Code upgrading ensures life safety and long-term protection for historic resources. It is important to consider heritage buildings on a case-by-case basis, as the blanket application of Code requirements do not recognize the individual requirements and inherent strengths of each building. Over the past few years, a number of equivalencies have been developed and adopted in the British Columbia Building Code that enable more sensitive and appropriate heritage building upgrades. For example, the use of sprinklers in a heritage structure helps to satisfy fire separation and exiting requirements. Ta.ble A-1.1.1.1., found in Appendix A of the Code, outlines the "Alternative Compliance Methods for Heritage Buildings.'; Given that Code compliance is such a significant factor in the conservation of heritage buildings, the most important consideration is to provide viable economic methods of achieving building upgrades. In addition to the equivalencies offered under the current Code, the City can also accept the report of a Building Code Engineer as to acceptable levels of code performance. · 4.5.2 HOMEOWNER PROTECTION ACT The Homeowner Protection Act was implemented in 1998 as a means to strengthen consumer protection for the purchase of new homes. The act was passed following a commission of enquiry into the leaky condo crisis, and was intended on protecting homeowners by ensuring home warranty insurance was provided on new construction, covering two years on labour and materials, five years on the building envelope and 10 years on the structure of the home. As the Act was intended to regulate new construction, considerations were not taken of buildings that have remained in sound condition for a many number of years that already far exceeded what the HPA requires for a warranty on a new home. The act did not take into consideration the protection of heritage projects, and consequently resulted in the loss of significant heritage fabric through the requirement of new windows and rainscreen wall assemblies on residential heritage rehabi I itation projects. Amendments to the Homeowner Protection Act Regulation made in 2010 allow for exemptions for heritage sites from the need to fully conform to the BC Building Code under certain conditions, thus removing some of the barriers to compliance that previously conflicted with heritage conservation standards and guidelines. The changes comprised: GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLAN I JUNE 2018 ,~ 9
10 1. an amendment to the Homeowner Protection Act Regulation, BC Reg. 29/99 that allows a warranty provider, in the case of a commercial to residential conversion, to exclude components of the building that have heritage value from the requirement for a warranty, and 2. clarification of the definition of 'substantial reconstruction.' The latter clarification explains that 75% of a home must be reconstructed for it to be considered a 'new home' under the Homeowner Protection Act, thus enabling single-family dwelling to multi-family and strata conversions with a maximum of 75% reconstruction to be exempt from home warranty insurance. The definition of a heritage building is consistent with that under the Energy Efficiency Act. The Gillespie Residence falls into the second category, as the proposed project involves retaining a high degree of the original structure and less than 75% of the house will be reconstructed. Consequently, this project is not considered a substantial reconstruction as per the amended definition in the Homeowners Protection Act, and will be exempt from the requirement of a warranty. This amendment will enable a higher degree of retention and preservation of original fenestration, siding and woodwork. 4.5.3 ENERGY EFFICIENCY ACT The provincial Energy Efficiency Act (Energy Efficiency Standards Regulation) was amended in 2009 to exempt buildings protected through heritage designation or listed on a community heritage register from compliance with the regulations. Energy Efficiency standards therefore do not apply to windows, glazing products, door slabs or products installed in heritage buildings. This means that exemptions can be allowed to energy upgrading measures that would destroy heritage character-defining elements such as original windows and doors. CONSERVJ\1lON GUIDELINES These prov1s1ons do not preclude that heritage buildings must be made more energy efficient, but they do allow a more sensitive approach of alternate compliance to individual situations and a higher degree of retained integrity. Increased energy performance can be provided through non-intrusive methods of alternate compliance, such as improved insulation and mechanical systems. Please refer to the Standards & Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada for further detail about "Energy Efficiency Considerations." 4.6 SITE PROTECTION & STABILIZATION It is the responsibi I ity of the owner to ensure the heritage resource is protected from damage at all times. At any time that the building is left vacant, it should be secured against unauthorized access or damage through the use of appropriate fencing and security measures. Additional measures to be taken include: • Are smoke and fire detectors in working order? • Are wall openings boarded up and exterior doors securely fastened once the building is vacant? • Have the following been removed from the interior: trash, hazardous materials such as inflammable liquids, poisons, and paints and canned goods that could freeze and burst? The historic house should be protected from movement and other damage at all times during demolition, excavation and construction work.

5.0 CONSERVATION RECOMMENDATIONS A condition review of the Gillespie Residence was carried out during site visits in May and June 2017. In addition to the visual review of the exterior of the building, samples were taken from exterior building materials and examined, The recommendations for the preservation and rehabilitation of the historic fa«;:ades are based on the site review, material samples and archival documents that provide valuable information about the original appearance of the historic building. The following chapter describes the materials, physical condition and recommended conservation strategy for the Rush House based on Parks Canada Standards & Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada. Aerial view showing location of Rural House at 12061 Laity Street. 5.1 SITE The Gillespie Residence is located at 12061 Laity Street, in the Dewdney Trunk neighborhood of Maple Ridge. The property is in a mid-block location, with the house set back from the main frontage along Laity Street. The site is characterized by a large open lawn area, with limited mature landscaping composed of several fruit trees, and a small collection of shrubs at the front entrance. The un-crowded relationship of the house of a spacious lot was typical of the post war and early settlement period. This provided allowances for gardens and self sustaining activities that were still needed in a semi rural setting. GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLAN I JUNE 2018 I 11
12 As part of the rehabilitation scheme the house will be moved towards a front corner of the lot to accommodate the construction of detached infill dwellings at the side and rear of the house. The site should be protected from damage or destruction at all times. Pease reference Section 4.6: Site Protection for further information. Conservation Strategy:· Rehabilitation • Relocate the historic house within the property lines. • Retain the main frontage relationship of the front of the house to Laity Street. • Any drainage issues should be addressed through the provision of adequate site drainage measures. • Design new infill structures that are "physically and visually compatible with, subordinate to, and distinguishable from the historic place" as recommended in Standard 11. 5.2 OVERALL FORM, SCALE & MASSING The Gillespie Residence demonstrates a typical Craftsman style, form, scale and massing of the late 1920s and early 1930s characterized by its one and half story height, and front dormer. The overal I detailing and proportions of finishes are typical of buildings where the majority of materials were found and locally milled or produced. As part of the rehabilitation scheme, the overall form, scale massing and inherent relationships to the exterior spaces of the historic house will be preserved. Conservation Strategy: Preservation • Preserve the overall form, scale and massing of the building. • The historic street fac;ade along Laity Street should be retained. If the building is moved on the lot the orientation should remain the same. CONSERVAllO\J RECOMMEND/\TlONS 5.3 FOUNDATIONS The existing foundations of Gillespie Residence are typical of the period in which it was built and are an eight-inch cast in place concrete with some small areas of rubble infill; however, the stability and construction methods are unknown. As part of the proposed rehabilitation scheme, Gillespie Residence will include new foundation walls and an upgraded basement area upon its relocation. This will occur within the current property lines. Careful attention should be given to insure that the wood-frame walls above are are not stressed or damaged during the move, or while the rehabilitation work is being completed. In its final appearance the house should maintain its same relationship to the grade. Conservation Strategy: Rehabilitation • As new foundations are proposed, concrete is a suitable material. New materials, such as cladding, should match original in appearance, and height, as viewed from the exterior. • Foundations should be reviewed by a Structural Engineer. Once the condition is assessed, conservation recommendations can be finalized. All requirements for code compliance will reviewed and comply with the current BCBC. • To ensure the prolonged preservation of the new foundations, all landscaping should be separated from the foundations at grade by a course of gravel or decorative stones, which help prevent splash back and assist drainage. New vegetation may assist in concealing the newly exposed foundations, if desired. GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLAN I JUNE 2018
C0f\1SERVA1l0N RECOMMEI\JDA110NS 5.4 EXTERIOR WOOD-FRAME WALLS The Gillespie Residence features wood frame construction typical of the Craftsman style of the late 1920s and early 1930s. This includes painted cedar siding on all elevations that extends past the full height concrete footing complete with a watertable and trim board at the base as well as surviving original wood features such as wood framed windows, and full trims and sills. Overall the condition of the exterior walls is good, demonstrating signs of minor age deterioration such as discoloration, paint peeling, and small holes from redundant fasteners. The exception is the front entrance, which is significantly damaged due to long term water ingress from the interface between the roof and the stoop. Although the front door is intact, separated and repairable, the surrounding framing, sheathing and cladding has been significantly damaged by rot and carpenter ant activity. This will require further investigation to clarify the integrity of the assembly, and what level of restoration and repair is required prior to the door being reseated in the original location. " Gillespie Residence Front Entrance Rot Condition Conservation Strategy: Preservation • Due to the integrity of wood frame structure, the exterior walls should be preserved through retention and in-situ repair work. • Preserve the original wood-frame structure of the historic building. • Preserve original siding on all elevations, if possible, and clean surface for repainting. • Replace damaged siding to match existing in material, size, profile and thickness. • Any existing trim should be preserved, and new material that is visually physically compatible with the original should be reinstated when original fabric is missing. Combed and/or textured lumber is not acceptable. Hardi-plank or other cementitious boards are not acceptable. • Design structural or seismic upgrades so as to minimize the impact to the character-defining elements. • Utilize Alternate Compliance Methods outlined in the BCBC for fire and spatial separations including installation of sprinklers where possible.

14 • Cleaning procedures should be undertaken with non-destructive methods. Areas with biological growth should be cleaned using a soft, natural bristle brush, without water, to remove dirt and other material. If a more intense cleaning is required, this can be accomplished with warm water, mild detergent (such as D/2 Biological Solution®) and a soft bristle brush. High-pressure power washing, abrasive cleaning or sandblasting should not be allowed under any circumstances. 5.5 ROOF Gillespie Residence features an original simple gable roof structure with a front dormer, and one interior brick chimney which projects through the roof near the roof ridge at the rear of the building. The roof structure features exposed framing and trims at the soffit edges. The roof was re-shingled at a later date with interlock asphalt shingles that do not contribute to the historic character of the house. Gillespie Residence Rear·Elevation Cladding CONSERVATlOI\I RECOMlv1END/.i,TlQNS The roof was not directly accessed during the review, however, from grade appears to be in very poor condition. The roof is demonstrating significant biological growth at the leading edge of the shingles, exposed scrim, degranulation, and deterioration in localized areas. In addition several interior leakage locations were noted upon the initial site visit, and the failure has significantly contributed to the rot conditions found adjacent to the front door. The roof should be replaced as soon as possible to protect against any further damage to other exterior cladding and interior structure. The new roofing should match the original appearance of when the house was constructed. Cedar shingles would be the best choice, alternately a three tab asphalt shingle could be used. Roofing materials should be reviewed by the Heritage consultant prior to installation. Conservation Recommendation: Rehabilitation • Preserve the roof structure in its current configuration. GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLAN J JUNE 2018 L
CONSERVA110N RECOMMENDA110NS • If required, roofing membrane and cladding system may be rehabilitated. Cedar shingles are the preferred material, but asphalt shingles or Aged Cedar Enviroshingles™ are also acceptable. • Retain the original bargeboards and fascia boards, as well as the soffit any exposed roof elements. • Design and install adequate rainwater disposal system and ensure proper drainage from the site is maintained. Wood gutters with galvanized steel downspouts are recommended. Aluminum in appropriate colours is also acceptable. Paint or provide specification of drainage system elements according to colour schedule devised by Heritage Consultant. 5.5. 1 CHIMNEY Gillespie Residence features one original, interior brick chimney that appears to be in fair condition based on visual review from grade. The bricks of the chimney above the roofline demonstrate some deterioration such as discolouration, bird deposit staining, biological growth, and deteriorated or missing mortar joints. The surviving, original brick masonry chimney is a character-defining element of the heritage asset, and should be preserved, and repaired. Conservation Recommendation: Preservation • Preserve the chimney in its original configuration, if possible. • Chimney may require structural stabilization. • Investigate condition of brickwork. If required, brickwork may be repainted and cleaned using a natural bristle brush and mild rinse detergent. • If the house is relocated, the chimney should be moved with the house, or dismantled and rebuilt as required.

16 Gillespie Residence Front Building Elevation 5.6 FRONT PORCH Gillespie Residence has a covered porch that extends out directly in front of the front entry, and terminates before it intersects with the windows surrounds on either side of the front fac;:ade. The porch was charact.erized by: flat deck roof, open wood balustrades, tongue and groove and exposed rafter framing, and a wood plank decking that was removed and replaced with a later unsympathetic and incomplete assembly. The connection of the porch and stairs is tenuous at both the roof and decking levels CONSERVA110N RECOMMENDA110NS Heritage homes were typified by a low balustrade of approximately 24" in height. To ensure the heritage character of the house is preserved, the restored balustrade design should reflect · the original configuration. In order to restore the original balustrade height, alternate compliance measures should be explored, such as the use of metal pipe rail and glass panels to make up the remaining height to meet code requirements. GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLA.N I JUNE 2018
--,------------CONSERV!\llON RECOMMENDATlONS Gillespie Residence Front Entrance Rot Condition At North Side of Front Door Conservation Strategy: Rehabilitation • Original lower height of the balustrade should be restored, with alternate compliance methods utilized to achieve the required 42" height. • Top of restored wood balustrade should be 24". • New possible alternative materials may be glass panels, metal pipe rails or a combination of both. 5.7 FENESTRATION Windows, doors and storefronts are among the most conspicuous feature of any building. In addition to their function -providing light, views, fresh air and access to the building -their arrangement and design is fundamental to the building's appearance and heritage value. Each element of fenestration is, in itself, a complex assembly whose function and operation must be considered as part of its conservation. -Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada. 5.7.1 WINDOWS & TRIMS Gillespie Residence features surviving, original wood windows, including a number of multi-pane casement and multi-pane double-hung assemblies with true-divided lites. Based on initial visual review of the original wood window assemblies, the window sashes appear to be operable and in good, reparable condition. The glazing in several windows unfortunately was recently broken, and will need replacement. In cases where the glazing is stiU intact measures should be applied to protect the assemblies as much as possible via removing and storing, or sending out the sashes for refurbishment until the building is resituated may be the best practice to avoid further damage. All surviving original wood window assemblies should be preserved, and repaired as possible. Conservation Strategy: Preservation • Inspect for condition and complete detailed inventory to determine extent of recommended repair or replacement. • Retain existing window sashes; repair as required; install replacement matching sashes where missing or beyond r«:!pair. GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC _ CONSERVATION PLAN I JUNE 2018 I 17
18 • Preserve and repair as required, using in kind repair techniques where feasible. • Overhaul, tighten/reinforce joints. Repair frame, trim and counterbalances. • Each window should be made weather tight by re-puttying and weather-stripping as necessary. • Retain historic glass, where possible. Where broken glass exists in historic wood-sash windows, the broken glass should be replaced. When removing broken glass, the exterior putty should be carefully chipped off with a chisel and the glazier's points should be removed. The wood where the new glass will be rested on should be scraped and cleaned well, and given a coat of linseed oil to prevent the wood from absorbing the oil from the new putty. The new glass should be cut 1/16-1/Bth smaller than the opening to allow for expansion and irregularities in the opening, to ensure the glazing does not crack due to natural forces. Window repairs should be undertaken by a contractor skilled in heritage restoration. CONSERVATlON RECOMMENDATlONS • Replacement glass to be single glazing, and visually and physically compatible with existing: • Prime and repaint as required in appropriate colour, based on colour schedule devised by Heritage Consultant. 5.7.2 DOORS & TRIMS Gillespie Residence features original door openings, and one surviving, original wood front door assembly. It has been removed, to secure the building with plywood due to the rot on the surrounding framing. The original doors and trims are important character-defining elements of the heritage asset. All surviving original doors should be preserved and repaired, as required, while unsympathetic replacement doors should be removed and restored with historically accurate wood doors. ····'" , •• !,.,.•

20 5.8 EXTERIOR COLOUR SCHEDULE Part of the restoration process is to finish the building in historically appropriate paint colours. The following preliminary colour scheme has been derived by the Heritage Consultant, based on on-site paint sampling and microscopic paint analysis. The colours have been matched to Benjamin Moore's H"i-storical True Colours Palette. Further on-site analysis is required for final colour confirmation once access is available. CONSERVAllON RECOMMENDAllONS Prior to final paint application, samples of these colours should be placed on the building to be viewed in natural light. Final colour selection can then be verified.

6. 0 MAINTENANCE PLAN A Maintenance Plan should be adopted by the property owner, who is responsible for the long-term protection of the heritage features of the Gillespie Residence. The Maintenance Plan should include provisions for: • Copies of the Maintenance Plan and this Conservation Report to be incorporated into the terms of reference for the management and maintenance contract for the building; • Cyclical maintenance procedures to be adopted as outlined below; • Record drawings and photos of the building to be kept by the management/ maintenance contractor; and • Records of all maintenance procedures to be kept by the owner. A thorough maintenance plan will ensure the integrity of the Gillespie Residence is preserved. If existing materials are regularly maintained and deter.ioration is significantly reduced or prevented, the integrity of materials and workmanship of the building will be protected. Proper maintenance is the most cost effective method of extending the life of a building, and preserving its character-defining elements. The survival of historic buildings in good condition is primarily due to regular upkeep and the preservation of historic materials. 6.1 MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES A maintenance schedule should be formulated that adheres to the Standards & Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada. As defined by the Standards & Guidelines, maintenance is defined as: Routine, cyclical, non-destructive actions necessary to slow the deterioration of a historic place. It entails periodic inspection; routine, cyclical, non-destructive cleaning; minor repair and refinishing operations; replacement of damaged or deteriorated materials that are impractical to save. The assumption that newly renovated buildings become immune to deterioration and require less maintenance is a falsehood. Rather, newly renovated buildings require heightened vigilance to spot errors in construction where previous problems had not occurred, and where deterioration may gain a foothold. Routine maintenance keeps water out of the building, which is the single most damaging element to a heritage building. Maintenance also prevents damage by sun, wind, snow, frost and all weather; prevents damage by insects and vermin; and aids in protecting all parts of the building against deterioration. ,he effort and expense expended on an aggressive ma.intenance will not only lead to a higher degree of preservation; but also over time potentially save large amount of money otherwise required for later repairs. 6.2 PERMITTING Repair activities, such as simple in-kind repair of materials, or repainting in the same colour, should be exempt from requiring city permits. Other more intensive activities will require the issuance of a Heritage Alteration Permit. 6.3 ROUTINE, CYCLICAL AND NON-DESTRUCTIVE CLEANING Following the Standards & Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada, be mindful of the principle that recommends "using the gentlest means possible". Any cleaning procedures should be undertaken on a routine basis and s.hould be undertaken with non-destructive methods. Cleaning should be limited to the exterior material such as concrete and stucco wall surfaces and wood elements such as storefront frames. All of these elements are usually easily cleaned, simply with a soft, natural bristle brush, without water, to remove dirt and other material. If a more intensive GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLAN / JUNE 2018 21
22 cleaning is required, this can be accomplished with warm water, mild detergent and a soft bristle brush. High-pressure washing, sandblasting or other abrasive cleaning should not be undertaken under any circumstances. 6.4 REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENT OF DETERIORATED MATERIALS Interventions such as repairs and replacements must conform to the Standards & Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada. The building's character-defining elements -characteristics of the building that contribute to its heritage value (and identified in the Statement of Significance) such as materials, form, configuration, etc. -must be conserved, referencing the following principles to guide interventions: • An approach of minimal intervention must be adopted -where intervention is carried out it will be by the least intrusive and most gentle means possible. • Repair rather than replace character-defining elements. • Repair character-defining elements using recognized conservation methods. • Replace 'in kind' extensively deteriorated or missing parts of character-defining elements. • Make interventions physically and visually compatible with the historic place. 6.5 INSPECTIONS Inspections are a key element in the maintenance plan, and should be carried out by a qualified person or firm, preferably with experience in the assessment of heritage buildings. These inspections should be conducted on a regular and timely schedule. The inspection should address all aspects of the building including exterior, interior and site conditions. It makes good sense to inspect a building in wet weather, as well as in dry, in order to see how water runs off -or through -a building. MAINTEI\JANCE PLAN From this inspection, an inspection report should be compiled that will include notes, sketches and observations. It is helpful for the inspector to have copies of the building's elevation drawings on which to mark areas of concern such as cracks, staining and rot. These observations can then be included in the report. The report need not be overly complicated or formal, but must be thorough, clear and concise. Issues of concern, taken from the report should then be entered in a log book so that corrective action can be documented and tracked. Major issues of concern should be extracted from the report by the property manager. An appropriate schedule for regular, periodic inspections would be twice a year, preferably during spring and fall. The spring inspection should be more rigorous since in spring moisture-related deterioration is most visible, and because needed work, such as painting, can be completed during the good weather in summer. The fall inspection should focus on seasonal issues such as weather-sealants, mechanical (heating) systems and drainage issues. Comprehensive inspections should occur at five~year periods, comparing records from previous inspections and the original work, particularly in monitoring structural movement and durability of utilities. Inspections should also occur after major storms. 6.6 INFORMATION FILE The building should have its own information file where an inspection report can be filed. This file should also contain the log book that itemizes problems and corrective action. Additionally, this file should contain building plans, building permits, heritage reports, photographs· and other relevant documentation so that a complete understanding of the building and its evolution is readily available, which will aid in determining appropriate interventions when needed. GILLESPIE RESIDENCE: 12061 LAITY STREET, MAPLE RIDGE, BC CONSERVATION PLAN I JUNE 2018 I L
MAINTENANCE PLAN The file should also contain a list outlining the finishes and materials used, and information detailing where they are available (store, supplier). The building owner should keep on hand a stock of spare materials for minor repairs. 6.6.1 LOG BOOK The maintenance log book is an important maintenance tool that should be kept to record all maintenance activities, recurring problems and building observations and will assist in the overall maintenance planning of the building. Routine maintenance work should be noted in the maintenance log to keep track of past and plan future activities. All items noted on the maintenance log should indicate the date, problem, type of repair, location and all other observations and information pertaining to each specific maintenance activity. Each log should include the full list of recommended maintenance and inspection areas noted in this Maintenance Plan, to ensure a record of all activities is maintained. A full record of these activities will help in planning future repairs and provide valuable building information for all parties involved in the overall maintenance and operation of the building, and will provide essential information for long term programming and determining of future budgets. It will also serve as a reminded to amend the maintenance and inspection activities should new issues be discovered or previous recommendations prove inaccurate. The log book will also indicate unexpectedly repeated repairs, which may help in solving more serious problems that may arise in the historic building. The log book is a living document that will require constant adding to, and should be kept in the information file along with other documentation noted in section 6.6 Information File. 6.7 EXTERIOR MAINTENANCE Water, in all its forms and sources (rain, snow, frost, rising ground water, leaking pipes, back-splash, etc.) is the single most damaging element to historic buildings. The most common place for water to enter a building is through the roof. Keeping roofs repaired or renewed is the most cost-effective maintenance option. Evidence of a small interior leak should be viewed as a warning for a much larger and worrisome water damage problem elsewhere and should be fixed immediately. 6.7. 1 INSPECTION CHECKLIST The following checklist considers a wide range of potential problems specific to the Rush House, such as water/moisture penetration, material deterioration and structural deterioration. This does not include interior inspections. EXTERIOR INSPECTION Site Inspection: 0 Is the lot well drained? Is there pooling of water? 0 Does water drain away from foundation?

TO: FROM: City of Maple Ridge His Worship Mayor Michael Morden and Members of Council Chief Administrative Officer MEETING DATE: FILE NO: MEETING: February 19, 2019 2152821 cow SUBJECT: Festival Grant Program Recommendations -Intake One EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The City's Festival Grant Program was established in 1999 and provides financial and in-kind support to community groups for eligible events that benefit our residents and attract visitors. These festivals encourage community spirit, celebration of place, citizen engagement, and volunteerism, and provide opportunities for social, economic and cultural development. Grant funding supports festivals of different sizes and impact from small, grassroots events to medium and large events that attract thousands and involve more complexity including road closures, large equipment, safety related support, food trucks and/or alcohol activities. Eligible special event organizations can apply for funding through two annual funding intake processes. The first intake is due in December for festivals taking place between May 1 and October 31, 2019; the second intake is due in May for festivals taking place between November 1, 2019 and April 30, 2020. The Festival Grant Program's approved annual budget is $92,700. Recommendations for support allocations in 2019's first intake are outlined in the summary chart (Attachment A) based on the program's criteria. RECOMMENDATION: That festival support allocations totaling $77,120 for events taking place between May 1 and October 31, 2019, as outlined in Attachment A of this report titled "Festival Grant Program Summary Chart -Intake One 2019" be approved. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applications for festival support were reviewed by an internal Festival Grant Committee on January 8, 2019, and evaluated with reference to the benefit criteria outlined in the Festival Support Policy ("the Policy") including financial documentation to demonstrate their need and justification for financial support. The Committee also considered each application's alignment with Tourism, Economic Development and Parks, Recreation & Culture planning goals. The committee was comprised of parks, economic development and finance staff and facilitated by the Special Events Coordinator (a non-voting facilitator in the adjudication process). Applicants are mainly non-profit and/or charitable organizations in our community, or have a regional mandate that includes the delivery of services and programs in Maple Ridge. Doc# 2152821 Page 1 of3 1151
The Committee recommends a total of $77,120 be allocated for events taking place between May 1 and October 31, 2019 as follows: • $17,000 for nine community festivals organized by independent organizations that include small, medium and large size events. Some highlights include the Maple Ridge Caribbean Festival Society continuing its pilot of a pre-event performance downtown as a lead up to the big event at the Fairgrounds; the Emerald Pig Theatrical Society's amount was maintained at the same level as the Society will continue to receive additional in-kind civic support towards their rehearsal performance costs for the Bard on the Bandstand event; the Art Yeah Festival group has proposed to expand by adding extra dates to the event through a Thursday Night Music series; and the Historical Society's Music on the Wharf application has been moved to the grassroots stream as the amount requested fits better under the grassroots category. • $52,620 towards three signature civic events and one partnership funding request which includes Canada Day, Celebrate the Night & Fireworks, Remembrance Day and National Indigenous Peoples Day. Additional grants and sponsors are also secured for these events. The growth of these special events will contribute towards furthering Maple Ridge's position as a year-round destination that is rich with cultural experiences and diverse activities for families and people of all ages, while building positive community spirit and increased community engagement. • $7,500 towards the events organized by the Agricultural Association and Haney Farmers Market Society as per the operating agreements, specifically $6,000 to the Agricultural Association for the annual Country Fest Fair and $1,500 to the Haney Farmers Market Society. Based on previous year's grant requests, the Committee recommends a balance of $15,580 be held back for the Program's second intake for festivals taking place between November 1, 2019 and April 30, 2020 and to support grassroots and/or new events. Staff will continue to review applications for grassroots and new events throughout the year and allocate funding on an on-going basis of up to $500 per event as per the Policy. The Committee noted that all special events are continuing to grow and develop in popularity and complexity while costs for insurance, traffic management, safety needs and public health continue to increase. Groups are creative and innovative in their efforts to continue implementing quality festivals and events and may need additional support to address increasing safety requirements which will be reviewed during the annual business planning process. There are no additional safety requirements known at this point in the process. b) Desired Outcome: The desired outcome is that the Festival Grant Program will continue to contribute towards a healthy, engaged, creative and inclusive community and raise community spirit and the profile of Maple Ridge. c) Strategic Alignment: Supporting and enhancing the quality, scope and diversity of festivals and special events through the Festival Grant Program will contribute towards recognizing Maple Ridge as a destination and community with rich arts and culture opportunities which fits with the Parks, Recreation and Culture Master Plan (2010), Culture Plan, Tourism Strategy and other key planning documents. Doc# 2152821 Page 2 of 3 I·
d) Citizen/Customer Implications: The Festival Grant Program provides assistance to community groups and partners to implement positive recreational and cultural festivals and special events that encourage strong citizen engagement and the development of a safe, affordable, vibrant, and livable community for all ages and abilities. In 2018 there were over 70 events with a total attendance of over 185,000 and volunteer contributions in excess of 22,000 hours. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: The recommended level of festival grant funding falls within the approved Parks, Recreation & Culture operating budget. CONCLUSION: Maple Ridge continues to have a strong tradition of citizen support for festivals and special events that enhance quality of life, encourage community identity and spirit, enhance economic benefits, attract tourists and participants, develop volunteerism and demonstrate a sense of responsibility to the community. The Festival Grant Program recognizes and supports these volunteer contributions and the positive outcomes they achieve. vonne Chui er of Arts & Community Connections Reviewed by: Reviewed by: Catherine Nolan, CPA, CGA Corporate Controller Reviewed by: Daniell~pe Dir tor of Recreation & Community Engagement Approved by: wi Genera Manager Parks, Recreation & Culture Concurrence: ~u~,BBA,CPA,CGA Chief Administrative Officer Attachments: (A) Festival Grant Program Summary Chart -Intake One 2019 Doc # 2152821 Page3 of 3

TO: FROM: City of Maple Ridge His Worship Mayor Michael Morden and Members of Council Chief Administrative Officer MEETING DATE: FILE NO: MEETING: February 19, 2019 2155118 cow SUBJECT: Region View Recreation Services Lease Renewal EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Region View Recreation Services has been the operator of the Maple Ridge Golf Course for the last 12 years, and would like to continue to operate the course. The existing lease provides for four (4) lease renewal options of three (3) years each. Region View has submitted a formal written application to have the first of the four renewal options approved by Council. The formal application also includes a request that Council consider maintaining the original lease rate at the greater of $120,000 per year or 20% of gross revenue. The operator advises that increasing the lease rate to the greater of $140,000 per year or 21% of gross revenue, as stipulated in the current agreement for future lease renewals, would be a significant financial burden considering the current reduced revenues at the course. The lease does offer the opportunity to maintain the original lease rate, which is what staff recommend. RECOMMENDATION: That the lease renewal request from Region View Recreation Services be approved on the same terms and conditions as the original lease agreement, which includes a rate that is the greater of $120,000 per annum or 20% of gross revenue. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Region View Recreation Services was the successful proponent when a proposal call for the operation of the Maple Ridge Golf Course was conducted in 2007. The terms of the agreement included two terms of six (6) years, followed by four further renewable terms of three (3) years each. In 2013, Council approved a proposal from Region View Recreation Services to maintain the original lease rate of the greater of $120,000 annually or 20% of gross revenue for the second six year term in exchange for the operator investing $200,000 in the course at that earlier date, rather than waiting for the lease holder's future $100,000 conditional investments for the renewals scheduled for 2019 and 2022. This funding proposal was intended to address golf course deficiencies to help increase user satisfaction and attract new customers to the facility. Doc # 2155118 Page 1 of 3 1152
Region View Recreation Services has continued to experience a downward trend in patronage, resulting in lower than anticipated revenues from 2013 through 2017, although 2018 has shown a positive increase and the beginning of 2019 started very strong prior to the current extreme weather conditions. Upon consultation with the City of Burnaby, staff have learned that the smaller courses in Burnaby have been experiencing similar challenges and that the larger course and other offerings such as the driving range are essentially subsidising the smaller courses. In fact, some smaller courses in the region have closed permanently in recent years as a result of this trend. This uncertainty is the reason for Region View's request to maintain the current lease rate rather than face an increase. The current rate guarantees that the City will continue to receive a minimum of $120,000 per year. b) Desired Outcome: The desired outcome is to continue the provision of a public golf course as an important recreational opportunity for citizens and visitors to Maple Ridge. c) Strategic Alignment: Maintaining a public golf course is consistent with the 2010 Parks, Recreation & Culture Master Plan, and falls within the category of special purpose parks. This category of park draws visitors from both within and outside of the municipality who specifically travel to attend the golf course. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: The Maple Ridge Golf Course has served the community very well for many years as an affordable opportunity to participate in the sport of golf, which contributes to the overall health and wellness of the community. The operator has advised that there are approximately 90 annual membership passes purchased and that more than 25,000 rounds of golf are played at this course annually. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: The current lease holder has operated the Maple Ridge Golf Course for the last 12 years and has fulfilled all of the contractual obligations required of them in the lease. As a result of the downward trend in registrations in the first 6 years of the lease, in 2013 Region View Recreation Services proposed advancing an additional investment of $200,000 for immediate golf course improvements to entice past patrons and new customers to the course. The advancement of these funds was equal to the amount that would have been a contractual requirement several years later, as a condition of future lease renewals. At that time, Council accepted the operator's offer in exchange for waiving the proposed lease rate increase for the following six-year term. This lease period will conclude in early 2019. Therefore, the lease rate for the second six-year term was the greater of $120,000 or 20% or gross revenue instead of the greater of $140,000 or 21% of gross revenue. Over the last 12 years, Region View Recreation Services has invested $500,000 for golf course maintenance equipment and capital improvements, in addition to the $200,000 that was advanced several years before the requirement to do so for lease renewals. Section 22.a of the lease allows for rent to be determined according to the fair market rent for the premises, so long as annual base rent is not less than it was during the most recent renewal term. Section 24 of the lease allows for such rent and percentage rate for the premises to be decided by arbitration, should the Landlord and the Tenant fail to agree to such rent and percentage rent payable for the premises with respect to the renewal. Doc# 2155118 Page 2 of 3
f) Alternatives: The alternative would be to require the operator to transition to the higher lease rate of the greater of $140,000 or 21% of gross revenue. However the operator has advised that this proposed increase may be too much of a financial burden given the lower than anticipated revenues that have been experienced in recent years. In fact, the audited statements provided by the operator show that 20% of gross revenues have not exceeded the base rent in more than six years. CONCLUSION: Staff recommend that the lease be renewed for a 3-year term at the original lease rate, and that this lease be reviewed again at the end of the term to determine if the golf course operations have improved to the point where an increased rent would be warranted.

MAPLE RIDGE GOLF COURSE MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES Greens: The appearance and playing condition of the greens are the signature of the Golf Course. Greens require intensive ongoing turf management in order to remain in a healthy condition throughout the playing season. The maintenance tasks which follow are general and relate to all Golf Course greens. By observing the colour, growth rate, root system and surface texture of each green, these general maintenance techniques can be adjusted to provide the conditions for healthy turf culture. Mowing: • cutting height (summer-.. 135 ") (spring & fall-.15") (winter -.185") • cut in straight lines across green (make one pass around perimeter of green at end of cut) -all turning to be done off the green and apron -change mowing direction each time -grass clippings always to be removed • h1 season the greens should be cut every day and in the off season possibly 2 or 3 times a week depending on weather conditions. The Stimp Meter readings and standards will help dictate the length of the greens. The following site will give good explanation to green heights and speed www.usga.org/turf/green section record/2006/jul aug/greenspeed.html Stimp Meter Reading: • The Stimp Meter reading should be in the range of9.5" in season and after Sept. 30tli it could go down to 8.5". This is a reasonable standard and can be increased slightly. The Stimp Meter is a universally accepted means of measuring the speed of greens see www.USGA.org/turfi'articles/management/greens/stimpmeter.htm1 The cost of a Stimp Meter is approximatley $70.00 U.S. (2005) Watering: • Daily watering in season (weather may cause schedule change) • all turf should be watered on an as required basis and never over watered. Cutting Cups: • keep cup cutter sharp • The cups should be changed everytime the greens are cut and they should be done with a specific rotation schedule. Each green should have between 3 and 5 different cup placrnent zones per green depending on the size of the greens. In the off season when the greens are not cut on a regular basis the cups should be moved at least 2 times a week and more often if the rounds of golf begin to show wear around the cups. • do not place cup closer than 10 feet from edge of green GENERAL MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES: Aeration: • requirement will vary with play and thatch. High levels of play will cause compaction and a need to aerify. / Aerification should be done a minimum of three times a year. / /~ The plugs should not be used for top dressing greens. p.-<-l • •
• Only dry sand should be used to fill the holes and it should be a specific USGA granular size that is the same every time the greens are top dressed. • Aerification tynes will vary according to the the specific requinnents for aerification. They may be solid tynes or hollow tynes and will vary in size according to the need. • 5/8 " hollow at the end of April • 1/4" solid during the 3rd week of June • 5/8" hollow late August or early Sept. Top Dressing: • Top dressing shou.ld normally be done at the time of aerification but can also be done at regular intervals without aeification. The application rate of sand is lighter when aerification is not required. The sand particle size and the percent of organic material is more important than if the sand is sharp or round. All plugs should normally be removed and not used for top dressing. • Greens, aprons and tees should use the same dry top dressing mix • 3/8" of topdressing is generally sufficient • Greens should be dragged after topdressing to work the sand into the holes left from aerifiying. Fertilizing: • Fertilizing should be based on the turf requirements and soil conditions. • The entire fertilization program .should be carefully planned after regular soil test have been completed. Many suppliers will assit with testing and application rate recommendations. • sand base does not have or retain nutrients, total season fertilizer acquirements should be applied in frequent small amounts -fertilizing may be required at six-week intervals during growing and high use periods to maintain colour Weed and Disease Control: • Control of disease should not only be for snow mold and dollar spot. Careful monitoring of greens will dictate the applications required to rid the greens and aprons from disease. • Because chemicals are constantly being changed and delisted it is not necessary to mention specific chemicals by name. It is simply enough to say that ongoing monitoring and preventative practices will determine the cultural practices and that licensed spray technicians are required to apply all restricted chemicals. All spray technicians must follow the I.P.M. as specified by the District of Maple Ridge and all other government regulations and guidelines in affect. • each green will require its own schedule and monitoring for chemical applications. Surface Repairs: • greens mower operators should inspect greens daily. while cutting and do minor surface repairs such as: removal of ball dents, divet replacement, and spike damage Poles & Flags: • To be inspected by greens mower operators daily, replaced and cleaned as required. Golf Course Maintenance Manual -2-I·
• Consideration should be given to 2 flags on each green to better distribute the wear on the greens for all those who play 18 holes. For example the first gre~n would have 2 flags in different zones. One flag for the 151 hole on the score card and one flag for the 10th hole on the card the second green would have a flag for the 2°d hole and a flag for the 11th hole on the card and so on for a total of 18 flags on nine holes. Slicing (V erti-Cutting): • This can only be done if a verti-cutting unit is purchased for one of the triplex greens mowers. • Verti-cutting can in some cases supplement aerification. Aprons: • The aprons should be maintained to a rngh standard with even mowing as putting can take place on this surface. • It is important to mention that the aprons be maintained in the same manner as the greens cultural practices. The only significant difference is the cutting height of the approns and cutting frequency . . • It is very important that there be a difference in the height between the greens, the aprons and the fairways. • Mowing of aprons could be cut at the same height as the tees as it will use the same equipment . . Mowing: • .500" in the golf season • .75" in the spring and fall shoulder season • .75" in the winter season • The tee and apron triplex will be a backup for the greens mower if there are any maintenance issues with the most important greens mower. Tees: • It is important to identify location of the tees. • It is important to identify to the players where they are to tee off after putting out on the previous green. All tee markers should be coloured to stand out and not blend into the surrounding landscape. Mowing: • .500" in the golf season • .75" in the spring and fall shoulder season .• .75" in the winter season • reel type mower cutting preferred (same unit that cuts the aprons). • remove clippings at each cutting Watering: d: • Professional turf management staffwiB determine the amount of water required to maintain healthy turf. • Over watering will in fact in many cases reduce the length and depth of the roots. • The water sourse is from the District of Maple Ridge. Golf Course Maintenance Manual -3-
• . The supply is at city pressure without pumps and the irrigation system does have 2 controllers on the golf course. • The entire system must be blown out in the late fall each year and properly maintained at all times to assure the efficient delivery of water to the golf course. Tee Markers: • maintain markers so they are visible, paint as frequently as required • ensure users know that they are to tee off between and in line with markers • move markers daily GENERAL MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES Aeration: • The minimum should be spring and early fall but maximums will depend on the cultural practices required to have tees that meet the high standards expected. Top Dressing: • Generally speaking plugs from the aerified tees should not be used on the tees. • The tees should be top dressed with dry sand and seed if required • Particle size as recommended by the U.S.G.A Greens Section. The sand may have some organic material ( 10-20%) but should be exactly the same all the time for each application as not to have any layering in the tees. In most cases the top tlressing sand does not have organic material because of the added expense and difficulty of having the same blend available all the time. • Greens, aprons and tees should use the same top dressing mix. • Drag the tees after each top dressing Fertilizing: • Take soil test to determine initial requirements • The entire program should be dictated by the health of the plant and the soil conditions. • Grass appearanc.e and growth will dictate frequency Surface Repairs: • . On a golf course as short as Maple Ridge ( 2,500 yd.) there is no need to have ladies' tees moved on to the fairwways for ladies' days. If more tees are required because of the demand for a shorter course then additional teeing areas should be built. Moving the tee blocks forward on specific days generally detracts from the overall design and funtion of the golf course. • replace divots daily (inspect each tee daily) • Keep tees level and increase the surface .area as play dictates. Any construction or enlargement of tees should :i: e U.S.G.A greens section specifications for tee construction. Golf Course Maintenance Manual -4-
------------,----------~-~---·· Tee Amenities: • Ball washers should be available on every hole with towels and garabage containers, benches and tee signs. • All amenities should look new and be well maintained at all times. • Garbage must be picked up every day and more often if required. • Towels and wash water should be changed daily during the golf season and less frequently in the shoulder seasons. • Ball washers can be removed from the course during the winter months but should always be available throught should seasons and all summer. Pathways: • All pathways should be kept in good repair which includes regular grading; top dressing, edging and constant removal of grass and weeds that will grow on the paths. • All pathways should be free of pot holes and be well drained Weed and Disease Control: • Control of disease should not only be for snow mold and dollar spot. Careful monitoring of tees will dictate the applications required to rid the tees from disease. • Because chemicals are constantly being changed and delisted it is not necessary to mention specific chemicals by name. It is simply enough to say that ongoing monitoring and preventative practices will determine the cultural practices and that licensed spray technicians are required to apply all restricted chemicals. All spray techncians must follow the I.P.M. as specified by the District of Maple Ridge and all other government regulations and guidelines in affect. • each tee will require its own schedule and monitoring for chemical applications. Fairways: • Fairways must be maintained at a specific standard height and should be adjusted seasonally. • All fairways should be levelled over time with top dressing practises and possibly rolling. Aeriefiing fairways prior to top dressing will also assist in improved drainage as the fairways are built up with sand. • Keep the fairways free ofleaves and twigs. • Dragging may be required at regular intervals to remove soil mounds created by gophers and moles. Mowing: • .575" in the golf season • .75 in the shoulder season • 1" in the winter season • ensure that the cut is even throughout the fairway • take care not to scalp turf • frequency of mowing dependent on growth rate • drag areas prior to cutting if required Golf Course Maintenance Manual -5-
Watering: • Watering as mentioned earlier is dep.endant on the cultural practices, rainfall and absorbtion rate of the the golf course. With the available District water supply there is no reason for dry spots on the course in the summer months if the irrigation system is properly maintained and used efficiently. Ball Screens: • Annual painting of structures is required. • For safety reasons the screens must be kept free of tears at all times. • Annual inspection and replacement of frame and netting if required. • An excellent source for netting and major repairs is Netex Canada Netting Inc. (Mark Wilson) GENERAL MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES Aerating: • The generally accepted minimum in the region is once for fairways. This can be increased if the conditions require it. • Following aeration the fairway can be topdressed with a fairway mix that is sand only and dragged with the plugs that can remain on the fairways. Dry weather is ideal for this process followed by raiµ or watering. • Applications of seed may also be required at this time and the open holes and topdressing on the fairways it is an excellent opportunity for germination. Fertilization: • There is no maximum or minimum and the soil amendmet program is dependent upon the soil conditions and requirments of the turf. • Regular soil tests should be done before any amendments are applied. Weed and Disease Control: • Control of disease should not only be for snow mold and dollar spot. • Careful monitoring of the fairways will dictate the applications required to rid the fairways from weeds and disease. • Because chemicals are constantly being changed and delisted it is not necessary to mention specific chemicals by name. It is simply enough to say that ongoing monitoring and preventative practices will determine the cultural practices and that licensed spray technicians are required to apply all restricted chemicals. All spray technicians must follow the I.P.M. as specified by the District of Maple Ridge and all other govenunent regulations and guidelines in affect. • Spring applications are always recommended when growth is rapid • Apply herbicides before weeds go to seed Overseeding: • W om areas of the fairways are to be top dressed and over seeded as required to eliminate any bare spots. Golf Course Maintenance Manual -6-
Leveling, • Depressions in the fairways are to be leveled on an ongoing basis. • Minor depressions can be leveled by the application of repeated top dressings through the season. • Deep depressions will require the removal of sod, the filling of the depression with soil and the replacement of sod. Surface Repairs: • Surface repairs are also ongoing throughout the entire property. Minor depressions and pot holes can be hazardous to golfers, employees and equipment and must be repaired as soon as they are noticed. • Divot replacement daily ( ongoing) • Drag the fairways and rough to remove the gopher mounds ( other rodent mounds) • Over-seed thin areas when required to eliminate bare spots Dangerous Tree Asessment: • It is manditory that the golf course be inspected at least annually for dangerous trees. This service is to be documented and provided by a licensed arborist. • All dangerous trees are to be tagged and removed in a timely manner Rough: • The rough should be cut on a regular basis. Trash and litter should be removed daily. • Trees and underbrush trimmed. • Grass around all trees should be trimmed on a regular basis. Mowing: • The cultural grass in the rough should always be cut at a slightly higher height than the.fairways. This will assist in showing the definition and contouring of the fairways. The fairway cut and rough cut should be standardized for the golf season and shoulder seasons. • 1.375" in the golf season • 1.5" in the shoulder season • 1.5" in the winter season GENERAL MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES • annual pruning of shrubs and sucker growth on trees • daily trash removal -annual weed control • annual program of tree planting to provide increased screening \ Golf Course Maintenance Manual-7-
Traps: If a Sand-Pro is being used to rake out the traps it will generally be in a circular motion around the trap. The edges will require hand raking to bring the sand to the bunker edges. All traps should be topped up regularly with U.S.G.A. specified sand or at least the same particle size that has been used for the last 20 years. In some cases around the golf course drainage improvements may be required in some traps. Traps should be raked on a daily basis and golfers must be encouraged to rake traps after hitting out of them. • Regular trap maintenance is to include occassional deep cultivation of sand to ensure that the sand does not become packed and hard. Winter Greens: These greens are to be maintained on a year-round basis, to provide playing areas when weather conditions are unsuitable for permanent green play or when routine maintenance is being done on the permanent greens. Water Traps: Each season the water traps should be checked to ensure that a continuous flow is maintained. All pipes should be cleaned Spring and Fall with dredging. Drainage: Drainage repairs, maintenance and additions are ongoing and never stop. Money should be budgeted annually for this very important program. A well drained golf course will increase the green fee revenues in the shoulder and winter season and will enhance the reputation of the golf course. • All drainage ditches and drain tile should be cleaned annually.
