The Recreation Feasibility Study is a multi-faceted analysis that encompasses a service level assessment, extensive community engagement along with site specific assessments to support the conceptual design and high-level costing for a facility at Hammond Community Park. The first phase of public engagement aimed to provide multiple opportunities for residents, user groups and stakeholders to share input, ideas and challenges related to current and future recreation facility needs that will guide the conceptual development of future program spaces and activities. Public engagement was conducted from January 23 through to February 23, 2024, and key engagement activities included four open houses, a general public survey, user group and community stakeholder surveys, and several focus group sessions. The What We Heard summary report (Attachment A) and presentation provides Council with an overview of the engagement results and key findings. Overall, there was notable community support and excitement for a new facility and for recreation amenities to keep pace with the growth of the city. Participants indicated the desire for amenities such as aquatics facilities with a focus on leisure and therapy, increased arena space, and increased fitness and general recreation spaces such as walking tracks, climbing walls, children's play spaces and youth focussed spaces. This first round of engagement results along with the site assessments and service demand analysis will inform the next phase of work to develop the building programs models and facility concept design. RECOMMENDATION: For information only. DISCUSSION: a)Background Context: The research and feasibility analysis for a new aquatics facility is led by the project team of hcma architecture + design. The feasibility scope of work includes two phases of community engagement with the second phase anticipated to be conducted in June 2024, a service level assessment of current and future long-term recreation needs of the community, and site analysis including geotechnical, archeological and traffic assessments. This information will inform the development of the scale and type of facility and create 3-4 design concepts supplemented with a cost analysis.

The survey asked participants to provide information on current and future anticipated use of facilities and included an open comment space for additional feedback. Additional engagement opportunities were provided through open houses, stakeholder meetings, user group and community group targeted surveys, and virtual stakeholder sessions. There were over 2500 community touchpoints providing quantitative and qualitative information. The Engagement Summary lnfographic (Attachment B) provides a snapshot of the engagement participation. The accompanying presentation provides a fulsome overview of the engagement outcomes with the main themes summarized as follows: • Survey respondents shared their preference for an aquatics facility that supports leisure and recreation, swim lessons, and rehabilitation and therapy needs. Their top requested amenities are hot tubs, lazy rivers, and waterslides • Survey respondents shared their preference for an arena facility that has an increase in availability for training, competition, and community programs. They also noted a preference for increased access to drop-in and leisure skate, a walking track and improved areas such as changerooms and food services. b) Desired Outcome: For the public engagement results to provide reliable data to inform the facility and site requirements and the conceptual design options within the future recreation facility. c) Strategic Alignment: The recreation feasibility study aligns with Council's Strategic Plan (2023-2026) priorities as follows: • Engaged, Healthy Community o Provide a diversity of inclusive and accessible recreation opportunities. o Build and celebrate community pride, strengthening community connections to foster a sense of belonging. o Improve community engagement with the City. • Liveable Community Doc #3769543 o Develop infrastructure that positions the City to provide accessible and sustainable services while accommodating growth. Page 2 of 3 • The Parks. Recreation and Culture Master Plan (2023) includes the following: o Undertake a feasibility analysis for a new aquatics facility to serve the community. o Expand the supply of arenas in the city by 2 sheets, with 1 sheet developed in the near term in order to meet ice and dry floor needs o Include walking and running tracks, indoor children's play space in a new facility. o Include fitness spaces and amenities in future arena and aquatics facility development. o Ensure that community-wide needs for meeting spaces, program rooms, social gathering space, and office space are considered as part of future arenas and aquatic facility planning. o Review the infrastructure upgrade planned for the Hammond Community Centre site. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: Residents will have a further opportunity to share feedback during the second phase of community engagement on the proposed design concept options that are a result of the initial engagement, completed technical studies, program demand analysis and site analysis. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: The Feasibility Study is funded through the Capital budget in alignment with the 2024 Bus iness Planning Framework. The final recreation feasibility study results are anticipated to be presented to Council in the fall 2024. CONCLUSION: The phase 1 community engagement process resulted in substantial feedback from residents, community and user groups, and other interested parties that together will inform the building program models and design phases of the feasibility analysis. There were areas of significant support and areas of concern, and these results will be embedded into the second phase of engagement and in the final feasibility report.

The Study focuses on the proposed development of a new multi-use recreational facility at Hammond Community Park. The goal of the engagement process was to: • gather insights on the communit/s current use of recreation facilities, as well as any challenge; and • obtain information on preferences and priorities for future program spaces and activities in the proposed recreation facility. The robust engagement process adhered to the "consult" level of the International Association for Public Participation (IAP2) and included four key activities: 1. Public Survey -focused on understanding the community's current recreation use patterns and identifying how the City can improve recreation opportunities in the future. The public survey garnered 2,358 responses. 2. Recreation and Community Organization User Group Surveys -focused on understanding how the organizations interact with recreation facilities and identifying their service challenges related to infrastructure. These surveys garnered 183 responses. 3. Open Houses -a series of open houses were held at key locations, including Maple Ridge Public Library, Maple Ridge Leisure Centre, Planet Ice Arena, and a neighbours-only open house at Hammond Community Centre. The intent of the open houses was to increase Study awareness, capture sentiments related to current and future recreation use patterns and to identify project related concerns. The open houses drew hundreds of participants and resulted in over 600 captured sentiments. 4. Stakeholder Interview Sessions -17 community, rental-user group, and city department stakeholder sessions were held to understand program, service, and operational challenges and opportunities related to recreation infrastructure within the City. Key engagement outcomes are summarized below and organized into four categories: aquatics, arenas, general recreation and other. Aquatics According to public survey respondents: The current most popular aquatic activities are drop-in swimming (67% reporting regular participation), swim lessons (40% reporting regular participation) and aquatic amenity use (sauna, steam room and hot tub, 34% reporting regular participation). The most important activities to consider for a future aquatic facility, as reported by the community, are: 4 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary 1. leisure and recreation activities 2. swim lessons, and 3. rehabilitation activities. The least important aquatic activity noted by respondents was competitive sport and training. 25% of respondents identified that a new recreation facility should consider the inclusion of an outdoor aquatic amenity. The community would like to see new aquatic infrastructure that includes features such as: hot tubs (69% of respondents) lazy rivers (62% of respondents), and waterslides (57% of respondents). This feedback highlights the community's desire for a future aquatic facility that focuses on providing spaces to accommodate leisure and recreation, skill development and rehabilitation and therapy activities. It underscores the importance of prioritizing a leisure-oriented aquatic facility over a competitive sport-oriented facility. Arenas According to public survey respondents: , The current most popular arena activities are public skating (51% reporting regular participation), ice hockey (32% reporting regular participation) and skating lessons (23% reporting regular participation). The most prominent challenge experienced by the community today is related to the insufficient supply of prime-time ice and dry floor access. Requests for increased access to ice was the third most prominent theme (230 responses) identified in the survey comment section. The most important activities to consider for a future arena facility, as reported by the community are: 1. skill development 2. competitive sports 3. community programming (drop-in and leisure programs). The community would like to see new arena infrastructure include an indoor walking track (surrounding the arena) and improved arena support areas (fitness spaces, changerooms, spectator seating, food options etc). This feedback suggests that community members are not only in need of an increased supply of ice and dry floor facilities but also improvements and enhancements to arena amenities that support leisure and recreational uses. 5 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary General Recreation In addition to aquatic and arena needs and preferences identified through the public survey, several other perspectives and desires regarding future recreational facilities were identified: There's a perceived shortage of City-operated fitness and training areas (indoor cardio and weightlifting). 31% of respondents indicated a new facility should include a fitness area. The community wou ld like to see a new facility include indoor wa lking tracks (30% of respondents), a climbing wal l (18% of respondents), children's play spaces (17% of respondents) and youth focused spaces (17% of respondents). Other Themes Although the purpose of the engagement was to understand priorities for future spaces and activities and not to ask for input on facility location, the results of the open-ended question provided some notable findings on this theme. Of the 2,358 survey respondents, 257 (10. 9%) expressed concern about the loss of baseball diamonds as a result of site development, and 172 (7.3%) expressed direct opposition to the proposed location. Similarly, the public survey and engagement process did not specifically ask whether there was support for a new recreation centre; however, a significant number of survey respondents (698, which accounts for 30% of all survey respondents) expressed their support and enthusiasm for a new recreation facility in Maple Ridge. While the information presented above primarily originated from the public survey data, similar themes were observed in the open houses and stakeholder engagement sessions. The information collected in these more qualitative engagement activities paralleled the perspective that there is an acute shortage of aquatic, arena, and recreational amenities in the City of Maple Ridge. A detailed summary of each engagement activity and the key themes can be found within the Appendix. How will this information be used in the next phase? The outcomes of this engagement will directly inform the Service Demand Analysis which projects the current and long-term community recreation needs (program, service and infrastructure). The Service Demand Analysis is slated to be completed in April 2024. The findings of this Study will provide facility program recommendations that will then be used in the concept design (site test-fits) and project costing that are projected to take place between April-May 2024. In June 2024, the second stage of the public engagement process will take place, that will report out on the findings of this engagement and how it has informed the feasibility Study. It will be used to verify what we have heard and obtain further feedback. ~ (c Iii 6 2358 total responses Maple Ridge residents 3 Surveys fi>'ublic survey User .greure>. survey C@mm1,mity @1'€>blfa $Lir.vey 2541 responses Proposed Site Other: 4.1% 4 Open Houses 3 Publ ic 1 HeimmoRd !nvite-@nly 649 comments V4R lo.3% Prefer not to disclose: 3.4% :)• •*• ••• -total 7 aquatics , 1 arena 13 other user user user groups groups groups 20 11 not-for-profit 2 government assoc1at1ons agencies total 1 community 3 responses assoc1at1ons other from Stakeholder Sessions 6 city-e1ffiliate0 gro ups 11 e0mmuRity gF@l:.lps 17 total sessions lDl ~· 6 sessions with 11 sessions _with city staff and. community committees of council·, user groups •• {30%} • • (10 9%} •• {73%} 698 257 172 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Project Context and Goals The City of Maple Ridge (the City) has undertaken recent planning initiatives to understand the arts, culture and recreation needs and wants of the growing community. In the 2023 Parks, Recreation, and Culture Master Plan, the City identified a pressing need for new aquatic and arena facilities, ranking these among the top 5 recreation capital investment priorities. In response to these investment priorities, the City identified the need to complete a Recreation Feasibility Study which aims to: • Assess the current state of recreation within the City with a focus on aquatic and arena services and infrastructure. • Estimate the future demand of recreation with a focus on aquatic and arena services and infrastructure. • Quantify the facility and site requirements to meet future demands. • Assess the suitability of a preferred site location to support a new recreation centre. • Explore site and facility conceptual design options at the preferred site location. • Recommend the most beneficial path forward for the City. City staff completed a site identification analysis and assessed several City-owned sites and privately- owned properties, ranked them against a set of selection criteria including overall site size, approximate land costs, potential servicing cost impacts proximity to areas of increasing population, and access to transit and a major transportation route. Hammond Community Park ranked the highest through the assessment and has therefore been put forth as the preferred site for assessment within the Recreation Feasibility Study. 1.2 Project Approach and Schedule hcma architecture and planning (hcma) in partnership with contracted specialty consultants has been contracted to complete the Feasibility Study. The approach to complete the Study has been organized into six key stages of work, detailed in Figure 1 below. Each stage is designed to build sequentially on the previous stage and inform the stage that comes after it. 20:24 JAN FE B MAR WtAl(t; HERE APR MAY JU N JU L AUG '.~0?4 FA LL COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT -PHASE 1 EXISTING SITE & SERVICE DEMAND ANALYSIS FACILITY PROGRAM CONCEPT DESIGN - TEST SITE LAYOUT COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT - PHASE 2 FEASIBILITY STUDY online inteviews open geotech + council transportation cost survey houses archaeology meeting analysis estimate 9 l.

Community Engagement - Phase 2 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary This stage of work focuses on engagement with community, recreation and community organization user groups, and City staff to collect information and perspectives related to the current and future recreational programs, services and recreational needs of Maple Ridge. A variety of engagement was completed including, interviews, surveys, open houses and focus group sessions. A detailed overview and assessment of the engagement completed is provided within this report, Phase l Engagement Summary. This stage of work was led by Cornerstone Planning Group (Cornerstone). This stage of work includes several site and service demand assessments. • Site geotechnical assessment -led by GeoPacific • Site archaeological Study -led by Katzie Development Limited Partnership. • Site transportation and parking analysis -led by Binnie Civil Engineering Consultants. • Topographical Survey -led by Bennett Land Surveying • Current state recreation service assessment -led by Cornerstone. • Future recreation demand analysis -led by Cornerstone. The outcome of this stage of work includes a detailed assessment of the proposed site and a summary of the current and future demand of recreation activities within the City. Using the outcomes of the future recreation demand analysis, a facility program is produced. The program provides an architectural roadmap for the types and sizes of spaces that are required in a new recreation centre to meet the projected demand of the community. The program will also identify the functional relationship between spaces and/or zones of use. Dependent on the outcomes of the demand analysis there may be the need to develop multiple facility programs. The concept design stage of work focuses on the development of possible facility and site layout scenarios. Concepts will be prepared at a building massing level and using the findings from the site assessments and facility program. This stage of work will include the preparation of Class D capital cost estimates. Phase 2 of engagement focuses on presenting back to the community and project stakeholders the key outcomes of the existing site and service demand analysis, facility program and concept design work. 10 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary Engagement activities will include a public survey, open houses and focus group interview sessions. Following a similar approach to the Phase 1 engagement, the project team will prepare a Phase 2 Engagement Summary. 6. Reporting Final reporting will see the culmination of all previous project work into a single document, the Feasibility Study. The project commenced in December 2023 and is anticipated to wrap up in the fall of 2024. This report offers a summary of the Phase 1 Community Engagement, which marks the initial stage of the Study Further details on this process are provided below. 1.3 Community Engagement -Phase 1 Approach The initiatives within the engagement plan were intended to provide residents with information and resources to participate in numerous engagement activities. These included survey and open house household post card distribution, newspaper ads, facility poster campaign, pop up banner displays, digital TV screen promotion at civic facilities, tent card and sign distribution to local businesses and transit shelter ads . In additional digital outreach included social media all-platform posts, three Mayor's videos, Facebook events and digital paid ads in the local newspaper. Several engagement activities have been completed as part of Phase 1 engagement. A multi-faceted approach has been undertaken to promote broad public and stakeholder engagement. The following table summarizes the engagement activities completed .

The subseq uent section outlines the organization of the report: Main Body: • Community Engagement Outcom es: Identifies predominant themes arising from diverse community engagement initiatives, encompassing public surveys, recreation user group su rveys and interviews, community organ ization user group surveys and interviews, as well as open houses and stakeholder interviews with recreation-affiliated user groups. • Conclusion: A summary of overarching themes derived from all engagement activities conducted in Phase 1. 12 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary 2 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT OUTCOMES Considerable efforts have been made to collect community feedback using several engagement tools and activities. This section summarizes the key themes and findings from the engagement process, which includes a blend of both quantitative and qualitative information. It aims to provide details regarding the community's overall support for the recreation facility, prominent concerns raised by the community, and what the community would like to see in a new recreation facility. 2 .1 Future Aquatic Facility Preferences Most Popular Activity, as selected by survey respondents: 1. Drop In Swim -67% of respondents reported regular participation 2. Swim Lessons -40% of respondents reported regular participation 3. Sauna, steam room and hot tub -34% of respondents reported regular participation Most Important Activities, as ranked by survey respondents: 1. Leisure and recreation swims 2. Skill development {swim lessons) 3. Rehabilitation and therapy Top Requested Amenities, as selected by survey respondents: 1. Hot tubs -69% of respondents requested increased access to hot tubs 2. Lazy rivers -62% of respondents requested increased access to lazy rivers 3. Waterslides-57% of respondents requested increased access to waterslides 4. 25% of respondents identified that a new recreation facility should consider the inclusion of an outdoor aquatic'amenity. Across all methods of engagement, including stakeholder interviews, survey data, and open houses, we heard that community members feel that the demand for aquatic facilities and programming in Maple Ridge surpasses the current supply. Community members also expressed concern about the shortage of City-led aquatic programming. 13 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary Specifically, community members noted long waitlists for swim lessons and inadequate availability of drop-in swimming sessions. The desire for enhanced access to both indoor and outdoor aquatic amenities, coupled with a call for more leisure-oriented features, was a recurring theme among community feedback. Respondents highlighted hot tubs, lazy rivers, and water slides as the three most sought after aquatic amenities. This reinforces the community's desire for leisure and recreation-focused facilities. Results from the survey indicate that drop-in swimming was the most popular aquatic facility activity, with more than two-thirds of respondents reporting regular participation. Swim lessons and use of sauna, steam room, and hot tubs were reported as the second and third most popular aquatic activities with 40% and 34% of respondents reporting regular participation respectively. Survey respondents were also asked to rank a list of aquatic activities in order of importance, with 1 being the most important and 6 being the least important. Survey respondents ranked the activities as follows: 1. Leisure and recreational swimming 2. Skill development 3. Rehabilitation and therapy 4. Personal fitness 5. Socializing 6. Competitive sport/training These results can be visualized as follows: Personal Fitness Socializing Leisure and Recreational Swimming Competitive Sport/Training Skill Development Rehabilitation +Therapy 14 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary These results from the survey are consistent with the opinions expressed during interviews and open houses with stakeholders. It confirms that the community prefers aquatic facilities that provide leisure activities, recreation, and opportunities for skill development. This emphasizes the importance of including leisure-oriented amenities in a future facility. Although some stakeholders suggested having a competition-oriented pool, there wasn't a strong demand for a SO-meter pool. In fact, competitive sport/training was ranked as the least important activity by survey respondents This underscores the importance of prioritizing a leisure-oriented aquatic facility over a competitive sport-oriented facility. 2 .2 Future Arena Facility Preferences t~ \,j I ' ' Most Popular Activity, as per selected by survey respondents 1. Public skating-51% of respondents reported regular participation 2. Hockey -32% of respondents reported regular participation 3. Skate lessons -23% of respondents reported regular participation Most Important Activities, as ranked by survey respondents: 1. Drop-in and leisure skating 2. Walking track around arena 3. Improved support spaces Similarly to the aquatic infrastructure, community perspectives suggest that the demand for arena infrastructure and programming in Maple Ridge surpasses the current supply. A prevalent theme was the significant limitation of ice availability, especially during peak usage times. Increased access to more ice time was the third most prominent theme identified in the open-ended comment section of the survey. Less frequently, but still a recurring theme, were demands for more dry floor options. Community ice programming, encompassing public skating, stick and puck, and learn-to-skate sessions, face considerable demand that exceeds the City's capacity, primarily due to competing demands from sports user groups and the restricted availability of ice sheets. Many ice and dry floor sport user groups have reported a consistent year-over- 15 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary year increase in participation, further exacerbating the challenge of meeting demand. Community perspectives indicate there is a need for multiple arenas, highlighting the benefits of twin-sheet layouts over single sheets. Results from the survey indicate that more than half of survey respondents indicated frequent visits to Maple Ridge's arenas as ice users and 28% reported frequent visits as dry floor users. Public skating emerged as the most popular arena activity, with 51% of respondents reporting regular participation. Hockey and skate lessons closely followed, with 32% and 23% of respondents, respectively, reporting regular participation. Survey respondents were asked to rank a list of arena priorities in order of importance, with 1 being the most important and 7 being the least important. Survey respondents ranked the priorities as follows: 1. More drop-in and leisure skating 2. Walking track around arenas 3. Improve support areas in arena 4. Increase group rental ice time 5. Increase drop-in dry floor time 6. Increase group rental dry floor time 7. Introduce inclusive programming These results can be visualized as follows: More drop-in and leisure skating Introduce inclusive programming .· • Walking track around arenas Increase group rental dry floor time .j Increase drop-in dry floor time Improve support sreas Increase group rental ice time These results emphasize a clear desire for leisure arena spaces and programming within the comm unity. This suggests that community members are not only in need of an expanded supply of ice and dry floor facilities but also improvements and enhancements to arena 16 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary amenities and support spaces. In response to these community perspectives, a future recreation facility should incorporate additional spaces such as walking tracks, fitness areas, and flexible event spaces to enhance community enjoyment and wellbeing. 2 .3 Other themes Although the public survey and engagement process did not specifically target capturing proposed location concerns, notable findings emerged: 257 survey comments were received that expressed concern associated with the loss of the baseball diamonds, of wh ich 59% originated from the V2X postal code in west Maple Ridge, where the site is located. 172 survey comments were received in opposition to the proposed site, with 87% submitted by residents of the V2X postal code in west Maple Ridge, where the site is located. Additionally, concerns related to parking and traffic were raised by 63 (2 .6% of survey respondents) and 58 (2.5% of survey respondents) respective ly, with 93% and 73% of these originating from the V2X postal code in west Maple Ridge, where the site is located. The following concerns emerged specifically from the Hammond Community Open house (represented by 132 attendees): • Some neighbours felt a large institutional building would not align with the look and feel of predominantly single-family residences in the neighbourhood. Some residents favoured improving existing infrastructure to maintain alignment with the neighbourhood character. • Some residents felt excluded from the city's planning process for a new recreation center and would have preferred a forum- style format for voicing concerns. • Residents have a strong connection to Larry Walker's legacy and the relationship between Hammond Community and baseball. Some have concerns about the city's commitment to replace the current baseball fields 17 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary 2 .4 Support for a New Recreation Centre One of the key themes emerging from the public engagement process was the notable level of support for the development of a new recreation facility in Maple Ridge . Support or excitement for a new facility was the top received comment in the open-ended comment section of the survey. Generally, participants indicated that the city was overdue for new recreation facilities, noting that as the city has continued to grow, recreation amenities had not kept pace with the expanding population. This sentiment was echoed in specific requests for amenities, such as increased arena space for ice and dry floor activities, expanded aquatic facilities with a focus on leisure amenities, increased fitness and general recreation spaces and increased provision of multipurpose and outdoor recreation spaces. Specifically, 698 survey comments were received in support of a new recreation facility. Of these, 50% originated from the V2X postal code. Furthermore, 39 (1 6%) comments expressed support for Hammond Community Park as the selected site, with 87% from residents within the V2X postal code area. 2 .5 Genera l recreation perspectives In addition to aquatic and arena needs and preferences identified through the public survey, several other perspectives and desires regarding future recreational facilities were identified: There's a perceived shortage of City-operated fitness and training areas (indoor cardio and weightlifting). 31% of respondents indicated a new facility should include a fitness area. The community would like to see a new facility include indoor walking tracks (30% of respondents), climbing wall (18% of respondents), children's play spaces (17% of respondents) and youth focused spaces (17% of respondents). 18 Recreation Feasibility Study -Phase 1 Engagement Summary 3 ENGAGEMENT CONCLUSIONS Phase 1 of community engagement in support of the Recreation Feasibility Study included several engagement activities aimed at capturing perspectives, needs, desires and considerations that will inform later stages of analysis. The following engagement snapshot summarizes the engagement completed between January 2024 and March 2024. 3 Surveys Publi€ s_urvey User group survey eemrrilJlnity gr.oufi) survey 2541 responses 4 Open Houses 3 Public 1 Hamrn@nd lnvite-0nly 649 ~omments Stakeholder Sessions 6 city-affiliated ~r~ups 11 c@mmunity gr@u s l7 total sessions Following the assessment of the engagement results, several conclusions can be made. They are • There is acknowledgment throughout the community that there is an existing shortage of recreation and community spaces to support the current population. Demand will continue to increase as the City grows and the gap in provision of recreation and community spaces will further increase. The community identified a wide range of recreation and community space needs for a new facility . • Overall, the results indicate a clear need for more aquatic, arena, and recreation facilities that prioritize recreation, leisure, and rehabilitation and therapy and should be welcoming and accessible to the entire community. • Notable support and excitement for a new recreation facility in Maple Ridge was identified, with 30% of all survey respondents indicating their enthusiasm in the open-ended comment section of the survey. This constituted the top received comment in the open-ended comment section of the survey. Of these, 50% originated from the V2X postal code area where the site is located. Furthermore, 39 (1 .6%) comments expressed support for Hammond Community Park as the selected site, with 87% of the 1.6% originating from residents within the V2X postal code area. • The community and project stakeholders identified the desire and project need for meaningful engagement with local first nations. The findings of the Phase 1 Engagement will be presented to Council in April 2024 and will be used to inform the Service Demand Analysis. The Service Demand Analysis is slated to be completed in April 2024. Facility program recommendations, site assessments, concept design and project costing are projected to take place between April-May 2024. A secondary public engagement process, aimed to present the findings of the analysis', verify what we have heard and obtain feedback on our findings is projected to take place in June 2024. 19 2358 total responses Maple Ridge residents 3 Surveys F'£Jblie: survey User ,gr@blf;:) surv,ey C©mmU nity grr@blf;:) survey 2541 responses Proposed Site Other: 4.1% 4 Bpen Mouses 3 Public 1 Hem1TI1Dfld lnvit-e-©.Aly 649 comments V4R 16.3% Prefer not to disclose: 3.4% =>• • •*• ••• -total 7 aquatics 11 arena 13 other user user user groups groups groups 20 11 not-for-profit 2 government assoc1at1ons agencies total 1 community 3 responses other assoc1at1ons from Sta~eholder Sessiens 6 city-affiliated groups 11 community ~~01s1ps 17 total sessions 11h ~ 6 sessions with city staff and 11 sessions _with community , committees of _council' user groups APPENDIX B •• {30%} • • {10. 9%} •• {73%) 698 257 172 ~ Maple Ridge - TO: FROM: SUBJECT: His Worship Mayor Dan Ruimy and Members of Council Chief Administrative Officer Second Reading MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024 FILE NO: 2023-208-RZ MEETING: CoW Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7958-2023 12035 Glenhurst Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: An application has been received to rezone the subject property located at 12035 Glenhurst Street from RS-1 (Single Detached Residential) to R-4 (Single Detached (Infill) Urban Residential), to permit a future subdivision of two lots.

The property is a rectangular, relatively flat lot. The existing single-family dwelling is required to be removed as a requirement of the rezoning approval. The property has 40 trees, most of them around the periphery, particularly, the northern portion of the lot. The majority of these trees will remain as part of the development. (see Appendices A and B). The subject property is designated Urban Residential and the proposed development is in compliance with the Official Community Plan (see Appendix C). The applicant proposes to rezone the subject property from RS-1 (Single Detached Residential) to R-4 (Single Detached (Infill) Urban Residential) (see Appendix D) to permit the future subdivision of two lots (see Appendix E). The subject site is bounded by single-family residential properties. The proposed lots will have access from Glenhurst Street. The final subdivision layout must be approved by the Approving Officer. 3. Planning Analysis: i) Official Community Plan: The Official Community Plan (OCP) designates the subject property as Urban Residential - Neighbourhood Residential, and development of the property is subject to the Neighbourhood Residential Infill Policies 3-19 to 3-21 of the OCP. These policies require that development be compatible with the surrounding neighbourhood, with particular attention given to site design, 2023-208-RZ Page 3 of 6 setbacks, and lot configuration with the existing pattern of development in the area. Under this designation, and subject to Policy 3-19 (1)(a)ii, a rezoning from RS-1 to R-4 is supportable. ii) Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the property located at 12035 Glenhurst Street from RS-1 to R-4 (see Appendix D) to permit the subdivision of two lots (see Appendix E). The minimum lot area for the proposed R-4 zone is 450.0 m2 (4,844 sq. ft.). Proposed Lot A will be 509.67 m2 (5,486 sq. ft.) in size and proposed Lot B will 624.46 m2 (6,721 sq. ft.) in size. The minimum lot width for the proposed R-4 zone is 12.0 m (39 ft.) and the minimum lot depth is 24.0 m (79 ft). Both lots meet the minimum requirements for the R-4 zone. iii) Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw: According to the Maple Ridge Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw No. 4350-7990, two parking spaces per dwelling unit are required. The applicant is providing the required parking spaces in the garages. One parking space per dwelling unit is required to be roughed-in and capable of providing level 2 charging for electric vehicles, which is being provided by the applicant. The applicant is also providing each dwelling unit with a bicycle rack for storage in the garages. iv) Proposed Variances: A Development Variance Permit application has been received for this project and involves the following relaxations: Maple Ridge Subdivision & Development Servicing of Land Bvlaw No. 4800-7993 7. To relax the requirement for converting the overheard utility lines along Glenhurst Street to underground. City staff is in support of this variance and will take cash in lieu of undergrounding the utility lines. The requested variance will be the subject of a future Council report. v) Development Permits: A development permit is not required, given that the proposed development is for two single- family residential lots. 2023-208-RZ Page 4 of 6 vi) Advisory Design Panel: A Development Permit is not required; therefore, this application does not need to be reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel. vii) Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting is not required for this application because it is in compliance with the OCP and proposes less than five dwelling units, as per Council Policy 6.20. viii) Parkland Requirement: As there are less than three lots being created, the applicant will not be subject to the park dedication requirements of Section 510 of the Local Government Act prior to subdivision approval. 4. Environmental Implications: An arborist report has been provided in accordance with the Tree Protection and Management Bylaw No. 7733-2075. A tree permit will be required for the removal, protection and/or compensation of trees. All Engineering servicing and building design shall be coordinated with the approved tree retention/protection, landscaping, and stormwater management plan. 5. Interdepartmental Implications: i) Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has indicated that the following servicing upgrades will be required through the Rezoning Servicing Agreement: • Road dedication as required to meet the design criteria of the Subdivision and Development Bylaw No. 4800-7 993. • Utility servicing as required to meet the design criteria of the Subdivision and Development Bylaw No. 4800-7 993. • Frontage upgrades to the applicable road standard or consider cash in lieu due to the mid-block location. 6.

At that meeting, a recommendation to waive the Public Hearing was carried due to the proposed rezoning being supported by the existing Official Community Plan (OCP) designation on the property. The new Provincial housing legislation recently amended the Local Government Act to state that a local government must not hold a Public Hearing on a proposed zoning bylaw if the bylaw is consistent with the OCP and permits a residential development (Local Government Act Section 464(2)(3)(4)). However, the notice that the Public Hearing is not being held must be published in advance of first reading of the bylaw (Local Government Act Section 467(3)). As this application was in-stream prior to the new Provincial housing legislation and has received first and second reading, the application must have a Public Hearing. It is required that the resolution to waive Public Hearing be rescinded and that this application be forwarded to the next Public Hearing. RECOMMENDATION: That Section 2 of motion R/2024-CM-034, pertaining to the waiving of the Public Hearing for Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7830-2022, be rescinded; and That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7830-2022 be forwarded to Public Hearing.

Council granted first reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7830-2022 on April 26, 2022. The proposed development is supported by the current Official Community Plan (OCP) land use designation Urban Residential. The subject property is located within the Lougheed Transit Corridor Area Plan (LTCAP). It, however, does not require redesignation via the LTCAP for the proposed rezoning. Staff are recommending that the Public Hearing be waived due to the proposed rezoning being supported by the existing Official Community Plan designation. This property is located within close proximity to the Fraser River Escarpment (FRE). The City is currently undertaking a risk assessment of the FRE to determine the suitability of increased densification along this corridor, the results of which may impact the current policies in place. Building permits will be subject to any policies or bylaws in place at the time of application. Pursuant to Council Policy 6.31, this application is subject to the Community Amenity Contribution (CAC) Program at a rate of $7,400 per unit with the first unit being exempt, for an estimated total amount of $14,800, or such rate applicable at third reading of this application. RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7830-2022 be given second reading; 2. That a Public Hearing for Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7830-2022 be waived in accordance with the Local Government Act Section 464(2), as Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7830-2022 is consistent with the Official Community Plan; and further 3. 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} Road dedication on the lane, as required; iii} Approval from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure; iv} Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for Stormwater Management; v} Removal of existing buildings; 2021-556-RZ Page 1 of 5 vi) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for the Geotechnical Report, which addresses the suitability of the subject property for the proposed development; vii) In addition to the Ministry of Environment Site Disclosure Statement, a disclosure statement must be submitted by a Professional Engineer advising whether there is any evidence of underground fuel storage tanks on the subject property(ies). If so, a Stage 1 Site Investigation Report is required to ensure that the subject property is not a contaminated site; and viii) That a voluntary contribution, in the amount of $7,400 per unit (first unit is exempt), or such rate applicable at third reading of this application, be provided in keeping with the Council Policy 6.31 with regard to Community Amenity Contributions.

Project Description: This application proposes to rezone the subject property to RT-2 (Ground-Oriented Residential Infill) to allow the construction of a triplex. Each triplex unit is approximately 135 m2 (1,457 ft2) in size and includes three-bedrooms, a flexroom/nook, lower-level recreation room, and a private south facing rear yard. The property is relatively flat with several significant trees on the property. The surrounding homes are mainly single family dwellings; however, the neighbourhood will experience increasing redevelopment over the coming years due to the proximity to main arterial roads/ transit corridors and inclusion in the Lougheed Transit Corridor Area Plan (LTCAP). There is an active development application (2023-240-RZ) for a six-storey apartment building approximately 65 m north of the subject property (see Appendix A, B, and C for context maps). 3. Planning Analysis: i) Official Community Plan {OCP): The subject property is currently designated Urban Residential which supports the proposed development under. the RT-2 (Ground-Oriented Residential Infill) zone. This property is located within the LTCAP and the proposed LTCAP designation, Intensive Attached Residential Infill, also supports the proposed rezoning to RT-2 (Ground-Oriented Residential Infill) zone. Please note that new development applications within the L TCAP have been put on pause, pending further work on the LTCAP. This application received first reading and proceeded through the referral process under the current OCP policies, and is therefore being put forward for Council consideration for second reading. The proposed triplex form is supported by OCP Policy 3-19 which permits infill developments such as triplexes, which resemble a single detached dwelling, with an emphasis on orientation to the street. In addition, OCP Policy 3-21 requires the design to be compatible with the physical patterns and characteristics of the established neighbourhood. The proposed design of the triplex resembles a single detached dwelling and has been designed to compliment the existing homes on the street. ii) Zoning Bylaw: Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7830-2022 proposes to rezone the subject property from RS-1 to RT-2 to allow the future construction of a triplex. The subject property meets the requirements of the proposed RT-2 zone including lot area, width and depth (see Appendix E for the Site Plan and Architectural Plans). The minimum lot size for a triplex form in the RT-2 zone is 800 m2 (8,611 ft2), the subject property is 885 m2 (9,526 ft2) in area after the required road dedication off the rear lane. The proposed density of the development (0.7 48 FSR) is below the maximum permitted within the RT-2 zone (0.75 FSR), and the proposed lot coverage (42.75%) is below the maximum permitted (45%). The required building structure setbacks have been met with the proposed layout. iii) Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw: A triplex residential use, outside of the Town Centre Area, is required to provide two spaces per unit. The proposed parking includes one enclosed parking stall and one unenclosed single parking pad, accessed off the lane, per unit, which meets the requirements of the Parking Bylaw. One parking stall per dwelling unit will have roughed-in infrastructure to provide Level 2 Electric Vehicle charging. 2021-556-RZ Page 3 of 5 iv) Proposed Variances: There are no proposed variances for this application. 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. The Multi-Family Development Permit application addressing the form and character of the triplex will be the subject of a future report to Council. Th~ timing of this report will be in coordination with the final reading of the Rezoning application. vi) Advisory Design Panel: The application was reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel at the October 18, 2023 meeting. The ADP comments and the applicant's response can be seen in Appendix F. A detailed description of the project's form and character will be included in a future Development Permit report to Council. vii) Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting was not required to be held as there are less than five units proposed. 4. Climate Change Considerations: The building will meet the BC Energy Step Code 3 and the stormwater management system must meet the City's Stormwater Tier A, B, and C requirements. The site design achieves the 40% permeable surface requirement of the Zoning Bylaw. Street trees along 119 Avenue are required. Retention of two significant trees on the property is proposed and six new trees to meet the City's Tree Canopy targets are proposed (see Appendix F for Landscaping Plans). 5. Traffic Impact: As the subject property is located within 800 m of the Lougheed Highway, a referral has been sent to the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTi). MOTi approval of the rezoning is required before final reading of the Zone Amending Bylaw. 6. i) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department The Engineering Department has indicated that the following servicing upgrades will be required through the Rezoning Servicing Agreement: • Road dedication as required to meet the design criteria of the Subdivision and Development Bylaw No. 4800-7993. • Utility servicing as required to meet the design criteria of the Subdivision and Development Bylaw No. 4800-7993. • Frontage upgrades to the applicable road standard. 2021-556-RZ Page 4 of 5 7. School District No. 42 Comments: A referral was sent to School District No. 42 and the response dated November 28, 2023 (see Appendix H) states that the catchment schools, Glenwood Elementary and Maple Ridge Secondary, for this proposed development are both under capacity at this time. CONCLUSION: It is recommended that second reading be given to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7830-2022 and that the Public Hearing be waived, as the proposed rezoning is supported by the existing OCP designation.

V4E 2V8 Erin Mark City Of Maple Ridge 11995 Haney Pl, Maple Ridge, BC V2X 6A9 Hi Erin, As per addressing the ADP comments below please refer to our responses in blue. Architectural Comments: APPENDIX G The three units should have distinct characteristics; consider incorporating colour or material accents. We have addressed this concern by bringing the hardy shake material in the center further down to the main level to provide distinct characteristics between the units along with adding unit address signage on the corner posts of the building, indicating the different units. The front entries should be more prominent to the street indicating it is a triplex. In addition to the above notes, we have added a gable and adjusted the posts providing a more prominent entry to the middle unit. The design and style are sensitive and appropriate for the surrounding neighborhood. We agree. Landscape Comments: Landscaping should be introduced along the rear Jane. We have introduced landscaping in the parking stalls of each unit in the rear lanes. It is believed there is too much grass incorporated into the design and the applicant should consider larger planting beds and/or raised gardening plots. We feel the grass provides more value especially in today's densified developments that lack green spaces. We want families to enjoy their green spaces and be connected with the natural elements of the earth. We feel there is a sufficient amount of plants, trees and green spaces, without jeopardizing the overall design, functionality and appearance of the dwellings.

Diversification of the tax base and generation of non-tax revenue are ongoing objectives, outlined in Section 6 of the Financial Sustainability Policy No. 5.52. The Financial Plan includes property tax increases that are as listed below: 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 General Purpose 6.10% 5.20% 4.70% 2.90% 2.90% Infrastructure Replacement 0.40% 0.80% 1.00% 1.00% 1.00% Parks & Recreation 0.30% 0.60% 0.60% 0.00% Total Property Tax Increase 6.50% 6.30% 6.30% 4.50% 3.90% Additional information on the tax increases and the cost drivers can be found in the most recent Financial Overview Report. Property tax revenue includes property taxes as well as grants in lieu of property taxes. Parcel Charges Parcel charges are comprised of a recycling charge, a sewer charge and on some properties, a local area service or improvement charge. Parcel charges are a useful tool to charge all or a subset of properties for a fixed or variable amount to support services. Unlike property taxation the variable amount does not need to be related to property assessment value but can be something that more accurately reflects the cost of the service.

Fees are used to offset some or all the costs of providing specific services. The utility fees are reviewed annually with a view towards using rate stabilization practices to smooth out large fluctuations in rates, as set out in the Business Planning Guidelines. Borrowing Proceeds Debt is used when it makes sense, and with caution as it commits future cash flows to debt payments, restricting the ability to use these funds to provide other services. The source of the debt payments needs to be considered as does the justification for advancing the project. More information on previously approved borrowing can be found in the most recent Financial Overview Report. Other Sources This will vary greatly year to year as it includes: • Development fees which fund capital projects from the DCC Reserve • Contribution from others in relation to capital • Grants which are sought from various agencies and may be leveraged with City funds PROPERTY TAX DISCLOSURE Property Tax Revenue Distribution Property Class Tax Rate Multiple ($/1000)(Rate/Res.Rate) 1 Residential 89,641 79.0% 36,446,726 90.9% 2.4595 1.0 2 Utility 954 0.8%23,858 0.1% 40.0000 16.3 4 Major Industry - 0.0%- 0.0% 12.6024 5.1 5 Light Industry 6,074 5.4% 963,875 2.4% 6.3012 2.6 6 Business/Other 16,596 14.6% 2,633,728 6.6% 6.3012 2.6 8 Rec./ Non-Profit 71 0.1%7,933 0.0% 8.9256 3.6 9 Farm 97 0.1%4,679 0.0% 20.8216 8.5 Total 113,432 100% 40,080,799 100% Taxation Revenue Assessed Value ('000s)('000s) Schedule “B” Revenue and Property Tax Policy Disclosure PROPERTY TAX DISCLOSURE Objectives & Policies Property taxes are the City’s largest source of revenue and are contained by efficient business practices. Annual business planning practices are the mechanism for resource allocation decisions. Section 6 of the City’s Financial Sustainability Policy discusses the necessity of diversifying the tax base. Development of employment-related properties is one method of diversification; therefore a key performance measurement in Strategic Economic Initiatives tracks the increased investment and development of non-residential properties. A policy in the Financial Sustainability Plan that calls for stable tax increases and the adoption of the annual increase early in the prior year in the Business Planning Guidelines provides citizens with a more stable and predictable set of cost increases. Property Tax Rates It is policy to adjust property tax rates annually to offset the change of market values on property taxes. Tax rates are reduced to negate the market increases. Property tax increases are then applied at the same relative increase for all classes, unless legislation restricts the rates, as with Class 2, Utility. The Business Class and Light Industry Class properties have the same municipal tax rate and are treated as a composite class when setting the tax rates. In reviewing tax rates to ensure competitiveness, absolute rates, tax multiples and overall tax burden are considered. The impact that assessed values have when comparing to other geographical areas must be considered in a comparison of tax rates. Permissive Tax Exemptions Council has set policies around the use of permissive tax exemptions. These are Council Policies No. 5.19 through No. 5.24. These policies discuss Churches, Community Halls, Heritage Sites, Homes for the Care of Children and the Relief of the Aged, the Poor, the Disabled and the Infirm, Municipal Recreational Services, Private Hospitals and Daycares, Private School and Youth Recreation Groups. Revitalization Tax Exemptions (no current programs) In the past, Revitalization Tax Exemptions have been leveraged as a tool to provide incentives for the attainment of strategic goals related to land development and the attraction of high-value jobs. The Town Centre Investment Incentive Program was established to attract private investment in the fulfillment of the Town Centre Area Plan. Similarly, the Employment Land investment Incentive Program was designed to encourage job creation by supporting investment in buildings and infrastructure on identified “employment lands”. Schedule “C” Capital Expenditure Disclosure The sole purpose of this statement is to meet legislative requirements and highlight the value of the Development Cost Charges; no other conclusions should be drawn from the figures as the information could be misconstrued. This disclosure is required under the Local Government Act s. 560 (2); capital costs attributable to projects to be partially funded by Development Cost Charges (DCC) must be included in the financial plan. The DCC program includes projects as far out as 2043 so the capital expenditures must be extended to match. Certain types of projects are not planned past the five-year time horizon of the financial plan. Much less scrutiny is given to projects that are planned in years 2029 through 2043. Projects in these years typically exceed likely funding available.

Lot 17 from 13.5 metres to 13.14 metres, to support the establishment of deep lots, while conserving ecologically sensitive lands associated with the KA4 Creek to the north and accommodating the road dedications Page 4 of 7 2022-229-VP required for 110 Avenue to south in alignment with the following Official Community Plan Bylaw No. 7060-2014 ("0CP") Policies: 10-9, which states that The siting of development... should avoid impacts to watercourses, reduce the risk of erosion in the area, minimize visual disruption to the neighbourhood and protect the visual character of the landscape (Chapter 10, Page 8); 10-10, which states that Natural vegetation should be retained where possible to enhance the character of the area. Significant treed slopes or natural vegetation will need to be retained in order to minimize disruption to watercourses and to minimize erosion (Chapter 10, Page 8); 10-21, which states that Development in the North East Albion Area is to be conducted in such a manner as to mitigate impact on the environment by increasing connections for wildlife, preserving existing hydrological processes, protecting fish and fish habitat, [and] minimizing the potential for stream erosion, preventing surface flooding, and ensuring major storm conveyance systems are capable of conveying significant flows and minimize damage to life and properties under extreme storm conditions (Chapter 10, Page 10); and 10-23, which states that For sites identified on North East Albion Schedule 2, additional floorspace or a reduction in permissible lot size may be supported if environmentally sensitive areas are protected and permanently preserved beyond what is required through the land dedication process (Chapter 10, Page 11); and 10-33, which establishes a proposed road network, including the section of 110 Avenue that is to be dedicated as a part of this development (See Chapter 10, Pages 11 and 26); and b. the Lot Depth of: i. Lot 6 from 24 metres to 23.07 metres; ii. Lot 21 from 24 metres to 23.86 metres; and iii. Lot 22 from 24 metres to 23.72 metres, to accommodate challenging setback geometry associated with conserving ecologically sensitive lands associated with the KA4 creek tributary as park and accommodating the road dedications in alignment with 0CP Policies 10-9, 10-10, 10- 21 and 10-23, as outlined above; c. the Rear Yard Setback of: i. Lot 21 from 6 metres to 4.48 metres, and Lot 22 from 6 metres to 2.97 metres, in order to accommodate the proposed cul-de-sac and associated impacts to the Front Lot Line geometry (i.e., the south sides) of proposed Lots 21 and 22, while conserving ecologically sensitive lands associated with the KA4 creek tributary in alignment with 0CP Policies 10-9, 10-10, 10-21 and 10-23, as outlined above; and Page 5 of 7 ii. the Rear Yard Setback of Lot 23 from 6 metres to 4.28 metres to accommodate trail alignment along the Rear Lot Line, in connection with the development of a network of trails and multi-use pathways as per the following 0CP Policies: 10-25, which states that: Maple Ridge will connect the North of 112 Avenue precinct, including the trailhead to Kanaka Creek Regional Park, to the co-located school and park site in the south via a 'Spine Trail', that will serve as an important stormwater feature and protect and celebrate the water resources of the area (Chapter 10, Page 11-12); and 10-43, which states that: The North East Albion Area Plan sets out a network of trails and multi-use pathways to link the residential areas with the community amenities. These trails and pathways will act as a greenway and buffer to the sensitive environmental areas while creating an attractive public realm for residents (Chapter 10, Page 12). 2. A variance to Subdivision and Development Services Bylaw No. 4800-1993, Schedule D - Design Criteria Manual, Section 3. 7 to reduce the size of the corner truncations required for Lots 17 and 34 from 5 metres by 5 metres (5m x 5m) to 3 metres by 3 metres (3m x 3m). This will slightly reduce the associated road dedications required. The developer's civil engineer has demonstrated that the required services can be accommodated in a reduced truncation and such a reduction would support the development of 37 single-family homes. 3. A variance to Subdivision and Development Services Bylaw No. 4800-1993, Schedule A - Services and Utilities to waive the requirement to convert overhead utilities on 112 Avenue to underground wiring, in accordance with Council Policy 9.05 -Conversion of Existing Overhead Utility Wiring to Underground Wiring, which specifies that: The requirement to provide underground wiring on a highway right-of-way serviced by existing overhead utility systems to be waived on the condition that the overhead utility fronting the development is classified as BC Hydro 3 Phase, and the developer will service the development with underground dips off the overhead line and deposit with the City sufficient funds to achieve the required undergrounding in the future prior to subdivision approval. 4. A variance to allow a double street frontage exemption under Section 512(2) of the Local Government Act and Section IV.2 of Subdivision and Development Servicing Bylaw No. 4800- 1993 for proposed Lot 37. A No-Build Restrictive Covenant on Lot 37 is to be established effective until the future subdivision of Lot 37, in order to promote more efficient use of available residential land within the City, by recognizing the potential of Lot 37 to consolidate with the property to its east and be further subdivided into two parcels in alignment with applicable 0CP policies. 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 2022-229-VP Page 6 of 7 CONCLUSION: The proposed variances outlined in Section C(1) of this report are supported by the Planning Department, because they support the development of 37 single-family homes in accordance with the density permitted under the Albion Area Plan, while accommodation of site constraints including KA4 creek tributary, abutting roads and cul-de-sacs, and trail alignment in following with OCP Policies 10-9, 10-10, 10-21, 10-25, 10-23 and 10-43 as outlined in Section C of this Report. Similarly, the proposed variance outlined in Section C(2) of this report is supported by the Planning and Engineering Departments, because the developer's civil engineer has demonstrated that the required services can be accommodated in a reduced truncation and such a reduction would support the development of 37 single-family homes. This proposed variance is supported by the Director of Engineering in alignment with Subdivision and Development Services Bylaw No. 4800- 1993, Schedule D -Design Criteria Manual Section 3.1. The proposed variance outlined in Section C(3) of this report is supported by the Planning and Engineering Departments, because it is in compliance with Council Policy 9.05. The proposed variance outlined in Section C(4) of this report is supported by the Planning Departments, because permitting the establishment of Lot 37 as a parcel with double street frontage with a No-Build Restrictive Covenant on its title promotes more efficient use of available residential land within the City, by recognizing the potential of Lot 37 to consolidate with the property to its east and be further subdivided into two parcels in alignment with applicable OCP policies. It is therefore recommended that this application be favourably considered and the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal Development Variance Permit 2022-229-VP.

The requested variance(s) is to: • To reduce the lot widths on proposed Lots 1-3, 9-16 and 18 from 11 metres to a minimum of 10.5 metres, and proposed Lots 19 -20 from 11 metres to a minimum of 9.5 metres. • To reduce lot depth on irregularly shaped proposed Lot 18 from 27.0 metres to 3.9 metres. Council considered rezoning application 2021-131 -RZ and granted first reading for Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7725-202 7 on April 13, 2021. Council granted first and second reading for Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7839-2022 on April 12, 2022, and second reading for Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7725-202 7 on April 12, 2022. This application was presented at Public Hearing on May 17, 2022, and Council granted third reading on May 24, 2022. Council will be considering final reading for associated rezoning application 2021-131-RZ on April 23, 2024. It is recommended that Development Variance Permit 2021-131-VP be approved. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2021-131-VP respecting property located at 23103 136 Avenue. 2021-131-VP Page 1 of 5 DISCUSSION: a) Background Context Applicant: Legal Description: OCP: Existing: Proposed: Within Urban Area Boundary: Area Plan: OCP Major Corridor: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Surrounding Uses: North: South: East West Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Site Area: Access: Servicing Requirement: 2021-131-VP Gary Lycan Lot 1 Section 32 Township 12 NWD Plan EPP 70286 Except Plan EPP75644 Civic and Conservation Medium Density Residential Yes Silver Valley No A-2 (Upland Agricultural) R-2 (Single Detached (Medium Density) Urban Residential) Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Park A-2 Upland Agricultural Civic and Conservation Rural Residential Zone: Designation: RS-3 Single Detached Rural Residential Low I Medium Density Residential Use: Zone: Designation: Use: Rural Residential A-2 Upland Agricultural Civic and Conservation Urban Residential Zone: R-2 [Single Detached (Medium Density) Urban Residential] Designation: Medium Density Residential Vacant Urban Residential 1.152 ha (2.85 acres) Urban Standard Page 2 of 5 Flood Plain: Fraser Sewer Area: b) Project Description: No Yes This development proposal is for a 20 -lot subdivision within the Silver Valley Area under R-2 Single Detached (Medium Density) Urban Residential zone, with road dedication connecting through 136th Avenue and 230A Street. This is Phase 2 of a larger development completed under application RZ/087 /08. The proposed lot sizes and layout reflect this previous application, which is located on the west side of 230A Street. In 2012, the School District made a final decision not to acquire this site for school development, thereby allowing this portion of the Phase 2 site to be developed for single- family residential lots with the subject current OCP and rezoning amendment bylaws. It should be noted that following the School District decision, the City of Maple Ridge acquired the north end of the Phase 2 site to create the Silver Valley Gathering Place. The acquisition of this community space provided a civic focus, and helped ensure that the original objectives of the Silver Valley Area Plan were met. 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. Lot Width Variance Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No 7600-2079, Part 6, Section 602.4 1 b.(ii): For a lot without lane access, to reduce the lot widths on proposed Lots 1-3, 9-16 and 18 from 11 metres to a minimum of 10.5 metres, and proposed Lots 19 and 20 from 11 metres to a minimum of 9.5 metres. Proposed Lots 19 and 20 are wedge shaped, and significantly wider at the rear property line. Lot width is calculated at the front building setback, which in the R-2 Zone is 3.0 metres from the front lot line. For this reason, proposed Lots 19 and 20 have calculated lot widths of 9.63 and 10.01 metres respectively, but the rear property line for each of them is over 15 metres. The applicant has demonstrated that all proposed lots will have an acceptable building footprint, and all proposed lots are larger than the minimum parcel size of 315 square metres in the R-2 Zone. The reduced widths of the other lots subject to the variance are also consistent with the adjacent Phase 1 development under application RZ/087 /08. Approximately 25% of the R-2 Zoned lots under application RZ/087 /08 have lot widths of less than 11 .0 meters. 2021-131-VP Page 3 of 5 The goal of neighbourhood stability is a priority under the Maple Ridge Official Community Plan. OCP policy 3-2 states: Neighbourhoods are considered to be physically stable areas. New development within neighbourhoods will be consistent with this concept and will respect and reinforce the existing physical characteristics of buildings, streetscapes and open space patterns. The streetscapes and open space patterns have been enhanced by extensive park acquisition, offering its residents recreational opportunities in addition to a stable pattern of residential development. Lot Depth Variance Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No 7600-2079, Part 6, Section 602.4 1 c)ii For a lot without lane access, to reduce lot depth on irregularly shaped proposed Lot 18 from 27.0 metres to 3.9 metres. Proposed Lot 18 includes an irregularly shaped, remnant area that will eventually be consolidated with the parcel to its east. The remnant will eventually be subdivided off and consolidated with the adjacent parcel to its east, thereby improving its development potential. A no-build covenant has been registered on this portion to retain its development potential. An explanation of how lot depth is calculated in the Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw is provided on page 2 of Appendix C. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: In accordance with the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879-7999, 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. CONCLUSION: The proposed variance for lot width is supported because of its consistency with the neighbourhood context under previous application RZ/087 /08. Overall, this proposal completes and enhances the established neighbourhood pattern with park development, meeting many of the goals of the Silver Valley Area Plan. 2021-131-VP Page 4 of 5 It is therefore recommended that this application be favourably considered and the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal Development Variance Permit 2021-131-DVP.

A key area is Green Infrastructure, where the Taskforce has endorsed developing comprehensive design and maintenance standards. These guidelines aim to enhance urban water management and climate resilience, with benefits including resident well-being, improved urban livability, and enhanced biodiversity. The initiative involves adapting standards to reflect Maple Ridge’s unique needs, with an update planned for late 2024. RECOMMENDATION: That $30,000 of Local Government Climate Action Program funding be allocated for the development of Green Infrastructure Design Criteria, Guidelines, Performance Measures and Standards. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: The Mayor’s Taskforce on Climate Action has been in effect since July 2023. The Taskforce’s objective is to rapidly advance priority climate actions in anticipation of completing the City’s Low- Carbon Resilience Climate Action Plan. Terms of reference for the Taskforce are included as Attachment A of this report for reference. Five priority focus areas were identified by the Taskforce, as identified in Attachment B. One of which was the broad topic of Green Infrastructure. The Taskforce was provided an overview of the applicable City strategies and policies pertaining to the topic, including the: - Environmental Management Strategy - Green Infrastructure Management Strategy - Integrated Stormwater Management Plans To ensure alignment between Taskforce directives and organizational priorities, strategic initiatives under the priority of Climate Leadership & Environmental Stewardship Objectives and Key Results were presented for consideration. The most applicable to Green Infrastructure was the strategic initiative to “Develop and implement green infrastructure design and maintenance specifications, guidelines, and performance standards.” 9 Maple RidQe - The action was supported by the Taskforce with a recommendation to request consultant funding to consolidate existing best practice, engage with internal interest-holders and develop specifications that reflect Maple Ridge and its Green Infrastructure priorities. The resolution read as follows: That staff bring forward a report and a funding request to accelerate the development of green infrastructure design criteria to be presented to Council by Q3 2024. Defining Green Infrastructure Criteria and Standards Green Infrastructure Design Specifications refer to engineered and ecosystem-based practices to protect, restore and mimic the natural water cycle in an urban environment. This is achieved by using soils, plants, trees and built structures to capture, store and clean rainwater before it is returned to waterways and the atmosphere. Specifications provide technical guidance to design professionals on how to design Green Infrastructure (GI) systems that meet the City's drainage, water management, and resilience performance targets. The toolset defines standards for the appropriate application of GI typologies such as bioswales, permeable pavements and tree trenches. Examples can be found in an excerpt from the City of Vancouver's Best Management Practice Toolkit, Attachment C. The application of the standards extends across private and public realms as the they are embedded in the City's Design Criteria Manual which governs all infrastructure works occurring in Maple Ridge. Benefits Creating water management standards delivers on the mutual benefit of lowering infrastructure costs by utilizing nature-based solutions, while increasing resilience to climate change. Additional benefits include enhancing quality of life for residents, mitigating heat islands, and expanding urban biodiversity. These benefits align with the Low-Carbon Resilience framework which encourages the consideration of co-benefits (generally environmental, economic and social) when developing climate solutions. Furthermore, embedding GI through design criteria ensures that new infrastructure is introduced through development, and not solely by way of local government projects. This enables development to support sustainability community growth. Approach & Next Steps 3775732 Foundational work on Green Infrastructure Standards has already been completed by the City of Vancouver and Metro Vancouver. The existing standards need to be modified to reflect the development characteristics of Maple Ridge through a collaborative, cross-jurisdictional approach. Staff are seeking funding for a consultant to compile current best-practice, apply a Maple Ridge context, and assess the maintenance implication for capital and operational planning purposes. The next project update will come by way of the Q2 strategic update. A more detailed update report will be provided in the fall of 2024. Page 2 of 4 b) Desired Outcome: That Council allocate $30,000 of Local Government Development Approvals Program funding to advance the development of green infrastructure design specifications and standards. c) Strategic Alignment: The project detailed in this report is a strategic initiative as detailed below. Climate Leadership & Mitigate & Adapt to the Impacts of Climate Change Develop and implement green infrastructure design and maintenance specifications, guidelines, and performance standards Environmental Stewardship Additionally, Green Infrastructure design standards for development of the private and public realm address deliverables in the City's Green Infrastructure Management Strategy and draft Urban Forest Management Strategy. The specific action items from those plans are noted in Attachment D. d) Interdepartmental Implications: As this item was identified as a strategic initiative advancing a Key Result, the Climate Leadership & Environmental Stewardship Strategic Priority Oversight Team monitoring the project. The initiative itself is being led in partnership between the Engineering, Operations, Parks, Planning department, and climate staff. A cross-functional working group has been established to advance the project. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: There is no immediate impact on the Financial Plan as a result of the proposed scope of work. Funding for consulting services will be drawn from provincial Local Government Climate Action Program funding. After accounting for planned expenditures for 2024, approximately $200,000 of funding remains for implementing priority actions resulting from the Climate Action Plan . It should be noted that introducing more Green Infrastructure will have maintenance implications with budget impacts. Costs will be assessed as maintenance standards are developed and presented during future project updates. f) Policy Implications: Developing and implementing Green Infrastructure design specifications will not require any change in policy, though amendments to the Subdivision Bylaw will be necessitated. Secondary impacts to land-use and development planning will also need to be factored as road allowances will be required to accommodate the additional infrastructure. g) Alternatives: 3775732 Council could opt to proceed with the project without funding. It is anticipated that the timeframe to complete the project would extend into the second half of 2025 as a result. Page 3 of 4 CONCLUSION: Green Infrastructure design and maintenance specifications, guidelines and performance standards increase community resilience to climate change. Standards will set clear parameters for how Green Infrastructure is woven in to public and private projects. Prepared by: Brian Montgomery Climate Action & Resiliency Advisor ---:·~ ~;:~ :;;:? ,.....

CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-i FINAL DRAFT Structure of the Citywide Integrated Rainwater Management Plan The Citywide Integrated Rainwater Management Plan (IRMP) addresses areas of Vancouver where stormwater is piped directly to either combined sewer or ocean outfalls. Outside of the IRMP study area, two watersheds in Vancouver have remaining surface streams—Still Creek and Musqueam Creek—and are guided by their own integrated stormwater (rainwater) management plans, under separate cover. Stanley Park, which has surface streams, is also excluded from this study area. Credits Prime Consultant/Author: Golder Associates Ltd. Subconsultants: Kerr Wood Leidal Associates Ltd.

Conserve as much existing vegetation and undisturbed soil as possible. • Minimize impervious area by using multi-storey buildings, narrower roads, minimum parking, larger landscape areas, green roof, and pervious paving. • Disconnect impervious areas from the storm sewer system, having them drain to absorbent landscape. • Design absorbent landscape areas as dished areas that temporarily store stormwater and allow it to soak in, with overflow for large rain events to the storm drain system. • Maximize the vegetation canopy cover over the site. Multi- layered evergreens are ideal, but deciduous cover is also beneficial for stormwater management. • Ensure adequate growing medium depth for both horticultural and stormwater needs—a minimum depth of 300 mm for lawn is required to store 60 mm of rainfall. • Cultivate compost into surface soils to create minimum 8% organic matter for lawns, and 15% for planting beds. • To avoid surface crusting and maintain surface permeability, install vegetative (grass, groundcovers, shrubs, trees) or organic cover (mulch, straw, wood fibre) as early as possible in the construction process, and prior to winter storms. • Provide effective erosion control during construction, including erosion control on upstream sites that may flow into absorbent landscape. Optimizing Performance Did you know? • Impermeable surfaces create 8 –10 times more runoff than absorbent landscapes. • Organic matter and soil micro-organisms are vital to maintaining soil infiltration rates. • Rainfall storage in soil is 7% to 18% of soil volume. DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION • Ensure roughening (scarification) of subgrade to reduce crusting / impermeability of the excavation surface prior to placing topsoil. • Enforce quality control of topsoil to be free of weed seeds, and to meet specs for texture and hydraulic properties. If suitable reuse existing topsoil. • Include compost to increase percolation and reduce need for water and fertilizer inputs. • Greater growing medium depth equals greater storage and treatment of rainfall. • Include an organic mulch layer to surface. MAINTENANCE • In planting beds, aerate or till surface 25 mm deep between plants each spring to reduce crusting. • In lawns, core-aerate areas of surface compaction each spring. • Ensure regular spring weeding to avoid weeds going to seed. • Remove and replace surface mulch in ponding areas once every three years ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-6 FINAL DRAFT An Infiltration Swale is a shallow grassed or vegetated channel designed to capture, detain and treat stormwater and convey larger flows. It takes surface flows from adjacent paved surfaces, holds the water behind weirs, and allows it to infiltrate through a soil bed into underlying soils. The swale and weir structures provide conveyance for larger storm events to the storm drain system. Variations on designs include an underlying drain rock reservoir, with or without a perforated underdrain.

Higher sediment load land uses require lower ratios of impervious area to swale area. • Flow to the swale should be distributed sheet flow, traveling through a filter area at the swale verges. Provide pre-treatment and erosion control to avoid sedimentation in the swale. • Provide a 50 mm drop at the edge of paving to the swale soil surface, to allow for positive drainage and buildup of road sanding/organic materials at this edge. • Swale planting is typically sodded lawn. Low volume swales can be finished with a combination of grasses, shrub, groundcover and tree planting. • Swale bottom - flat cross section, 600 to 2400 mm width, 1–2% longitudinal slope or dished between weirs. • Swale side slopes— 3(horizontal):1(vertical) maximum, 4:1 or less preferred for maintenance. • Weirs to have level top to spread flows and avoid channelization, keyed in 100 mm minimum. • Maximum ponding level - 150 mm for minimum hazard. Drawdown time for the maximum surface ponded volume - 48 hrs • Treatment soil depth—300 mm desirable, minimum 150 mm if design professional calculates adequate pollutant removal - varies depending on planting design. • Design stormwater conveyance using Manning’s formula or weir equations whichever governs with attention to channel stability during maximum flows. • Drain rock reservoir and underdrain may be avoided where infiltration tests by a qualified professional, taken at the depth of the proposed infiltration, show an infiltration rate that exceeds the rate required by the design. For more information: www.metrovancouver.org/services/liquid-waste/LiquidWastePublications/ 04StormwaterSourceControlDesignGuidelinesInfiltrationSwales.pdf Design Principles, Limitations and Sizing Variables Optimizing Performance DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION • Undertake site-specific infiltration testing and, based on results, design the system infiltration area, surface and underground storage volume, and overflow subdrain. Be careful to not exceed impervious / pervious (I/P) guidelines in design, exercising great caution in Vancouver if exceeding a 5:1 I/P ratio. • Provide a minimum 50 mm drop in gutter profiles and further 50 mm drop into the infiltration surface to avoid runoff bypassing the facility. • Enforce quality control of topsoil to be free of weed seeds, and to meet specs for texture and hydraulic properties. Use of non-angular sand (e.g. Fraser River pump sand) is encouraged for the sand component. Native topsoil will rarely be suitable, having too low an infiltration rate. • Include compost to increase percolation and reduce need for water and fertilizer inputs. Greater growing medium depth equals greater storage and treatment of rainfall. Include an organic mulch layer to surface. MAINTENANCE • Inspect and clean the inlet twice per year minimum (spring and fall). • In lawns, core-aerate areas of surface compaction each spring. • In planting beds, cultivate surface 25 mm deep between plants each spring to reduce crusting. Ensure regular spring weeding to avoid weeds going to seed. • Remove and replace surface mulch between plants in ponding areas once every three years. ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-8 FINAL DRAFT An Infiltration Rain Garden is a form of bioretention facility designed to have aesthetic appeal as well as a stormwater function. Rain gardens are commonly a concave landscaped area where runoff from roofs or paving infiltrates into deep constructed soils and subsoils below. On subsoils with low infiltration rates, Rain Gardens often have a drain rock reservoir and perforated drain system to convey away excess water. Primary Purpose • Capture and filter runoff from adjacent impervious surfaces such as roads, roofs, parking lots and driveways.

Higher sediment load land uses require lower ratios of impervious area to rain garden area. • Smaller, distributed rain gardens are better than single large scale facilities. • Locate rain gardens a minimum 30.5 m from wells, 3m downslope of building foundations, and only in areas where foundations have footing drains and are not above steep slopes. • Provide pretreatment and erosion control i.e. grass filter strip to avoid introducing sediment into the garden. • At point-source inlets, install non-erodable material, sediment cleanout basins, and weir flow spreaders. • Bottom width - 600 mm (Min.) to 3000 mm and length-width ratio of 2:1 desirable. • Side slopes – 2:1 maximum, 4:1 preferred for maintenance. Ponding depth - 150 – 300 mm. • Draw-down time for maximum ponded volume - 72 hours. • Treatment soil depth - 300 mm (Min.) to 1200 mm (desirable); use soils with minimum infiltration rate of 50 mm/hr. • Surface planting should be primarily trees, shrubs, and groundcovers, with planting designs respecting the various soil moisture conditions in the garden. Plantings may include rushes, sedges and grasses as well as lawn areas for erosion control and multiple uses. • Apply a 50–75 mm layer of organic mulch for both erosion control and to maintain infiltration capacity. • Install a non-erodible outlet or spillway to discharge overflow. • Avoid utility or other crossings of the rain garden. Where utility trenches must be constructed below the garden, install trench dams to avoid infiltration water following the utility trench. • Drain rock reservoir and perforated drain pipe may be avoided where infiltration tests by a design professional show a subsoil infiltration rate that exceeds the inflow rate..

Be careful to not exceed impervious / pervious (I/P) guidelines in design, exercising great caution if exceeding a 2:1 I/P ratio. • Isolate the pervious pavement from sources of sediment – consider a gutter to separate traveled lane drainage from pervious pavement parking area. Although this would reduce the I/P area efficiency, it also reduces the risk of surface plugging. Install pervious paving after adjacent construction is complete. • Enforce quality control of materials, in particular bedding and crack aggregate sizing and fractured face qualities. These pavements have no sands, no fines. • Greater reservoir depth equals greater storage and treatment of rainfall. Hydrocarbons soaking into the aggregate undergo aerobic digestion. MAINTENANCE • Provide vacuum sweeping at least twice/year, spring, and fall after leaf drop. • Surface weeding may be similar to that required of standard interlocking pavers (some weed/ moss growth). Ensure regular spring weeding to avoid weeds going to seed. • In interlocking pervious pavements, remove and replace top one-third of crack aggregate once every three years. Localized plugged areas, if found, may be repaired by lifting the pavers, replacing bedding aggregate and upper filter cloth, and returning the pavers—a shallow repair. ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-12 FINAL DRAFT A Green Roof is a roof with a veneer of drainage and growing media that supports living vegetation.

Access through a ‘man door’ is preferable to a roof hatch. • Roofs with less than 2% slope require special drainage construction so that no part of the growing medium is continuously saturated. • Avoid monocultures when planting a green roof; the success of establishing a self-maintaining plant community is increased when a mix of species is used. • Provide intensive maintenance for the first 2 years after plant installation—irrigation in dry periods, weed removal, light fertilization with slow release complete fertilizers, and replacement of dead plants. • To facilitate access and prevent moisture on exposed structural components, provide plant free zones along the perimeter, adjacent facades, expansion joints, and around each roof penetration. • Fire breaks of non-combustible material, 50 cm wide, should be located every 40 m in all directions and at roof penetrations. • Provide protection against root penetration of the waterproof membrane by either adding a root barrier or using a membrane that is itself resistant to root penetration. Green Roof Benefits • Reduced peak flows & stormwater volume • Mitigation of urban heat island effect • Insulation against heat loss and gain • Extended roof membrane life • Sound insulation & air filtration • Urban habitat & biodiversity • Aesthetics Optimizing Performance DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION • Intensive green roof ( >100 depth) provides greater rainwater storage and stormwater benefits than an Extensive Green Roof (<100 depth) • Growing medium mixes for Extensive Green roof may be primarily fine aggregate with limited rainwater storage potential. • Greater growing medium depth and higher fines/organic content of Intensive Green Roof equals greater storage and treatment of rainfall. MAINTENANCE • In planting beds, cultivate surface 25mm deep between plants each spring to reduce crusting. • In Extensive Green Roof lawns, core-aerate areas of surface compaction each spring. • Ensure regular spring weeding to avoid weeds going to seed. ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-14 FINAL DRAFT Trees play a vital role in reducing stormwater runoff in urban settings. Trees within tree wells are generally healthier and reach mature height faster, which leads to more water being intercepted by the tree canopy.

Tree wells (also called soil cells) are rigid frame structures which are typically installed under a hard surface such as a sidewalk, parking lot or road. Tree wells allow a large amount of soil to be installed under hard surfaces without compromising surface loading. Perforated drain line is installed at the bottom of the 1st layer of Silva Cells and connected to the catch basin.

Allow 12” (30 cm) additional space along all edges. • Compact subgrade to 95% density or as recommended by the geotechnical engineer. • Prepare the sub-base as per product specifications. • Do not install when subgrades or planting soils are wet, muddy or frozen. • Review installation layout and procedures with the general contractor, landscape architect and product representative prior to installation. • Refer to product supplier specifications for information on sizing, material type, preparation and system installation. • Refer to product specifications for installation instructions. Optimizing Performance DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION • If including infiltration in the design, undertake site-specific infiltration testing and, based on results, design the system infiltration area, surface and underground storage volume, and overflow subdrain. Be careful to not exceed impervious/pervious (I/P) guidelines in design, exercising great caution in Vancouver if exceeding a 5:1 I/P ratio. If using a ‘flow-through’ design, do not exceed the infiltration capacity of the design soil. • Ensure the design provides root barriers and/or air gap to separate tree roots from paving. Note that root barriers must break to the air surface – roots will grow over buried root barriers. • Enforce quality control of topsoil to be free of weed seeds, and to meet specs for texture and hydraulic properties. Use of non-angular sand (e.g. Fraser River pump sand) is encouraged for the sand component. Native topsoil will rarely be suitable, having too low an infiltration rate. • Include compost to increase percolation and reduce need for water and fertilizer inputs. Greater growing medium depth equals greater storage and treatment of rainfall. • Include an organic mulch layer to surface. MAINTENANCE • Inspect and clean the inlet twice per year minimum (spring and fall). • Surface areas exposed to air/ moisture will require weeding. Ensure regular spring weeding to avoid weeds going to seed. • Adjust the tree well grate opening to allow for tree growth, and remove/replace organic mulch to exposed areas, as required but at least once every three years. ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-16 FINAL DRAFT Rainwater harvesting involves collecting rainwater from roofs and storing it for non-potable uses.

Key Eight Rainwater Harvesting System Design Considerations (Exall, K., and T.D. Vassos, 2012) Optimizing Performance DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION • To maximize stormwater benefits, a regular, slow decanting of the tank is desired year round. Toilets (and laundry) provide this regular demand. If they are not connected, the tank needs to have a winter ‘seep’ facility to slowly decant to absorbent landscape or infiltration trench. • Roof surfaces that are not under trees, and of relatively clean materials (metal or asphalt) are preferred. Green roof is not a desirable source of rainwater harvesting. • Careful plumbing installation/inspection to avoid cross connection between rainwater and potable water is warranted. • Minor rainwater treatment to reduce colouration of rainwater will increase user acceptance, in particular for indoor non-potable uses. MAINTENANCE • Inspect and clean gutters, first flush diverter regularly (spring and fall or more often). • Maintain non-light conditions in tanks and pipes—this will reduce algae growth. • Drain and clean tanks and fixtures at least once every three years. ~YOF I 6'GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-18 FINAL DRAFT An Infiltration Trench system is a sub-surface infiltration facility.

To prevent the retention trench from clogging over time, the trench is encapsulated in filter fabric to prevent entry of any fine material around and on top of the trench and the stormwater entering the trench via perforated pipes is first treated to remove fines in a sump or through grass filter strips. No pavement/walkway runoff, which may contain pollutants and grit, is allowed to flow directly into the trench. Instead it is also first filtered by a grass area, a filter strip, or a planted swale. The retention trench is sized based on measured infiltration rates of the native soils below the trench and the trench depth is limited to allow it to fully drain between storm events. The retention trench is only used where the seasonal high water table and/or bedrock is well below the bottom of the trench. An overflow pipe is incorporated into the retention trench design to prevent the lawn overtop of the trench from becoming saturated and unusable.

Grit / sediment separators can take several forms including precast cylindrical tanks which replace manholes in pipe systems or precast tanks. Most separators rely on gravity separation or hydrodynamic separation and settlement of particles. Several of the hydrodynamic separators also collect oil and floating trash. Particles are settled and collect until removed by routine maintenance. Filter structures can be used to remove the most challenging pollutants from stormwater including nutrients such as phosphorus. Similar to sediment separators, filter structures come in either a precast cylindrical tank or a more traditional shaped precast tank.

CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-28 FINAL DRAFT 2.0 TOOL PERFORMANCE AND SUITABILITY Performance Rating A Performance Rating is provided as a summary of how each tool compares with others in the Toolkit. The general Performance Rating is a summary of 10 criteria, which are organized in two groups: Function and Cost. The ‘Considerations in Evaluating Performance’ section provides a detailed description of how the criteria apply to the specific conditions of the City of Vancouver Citywide study area. Considerations in Evaluating Performance Vancouver’s Citywide IRMP is different than many other watershed- based stormwater management plans, in that the Vancouver study area is entirely serviced with piped stormwater systems. Whereas most IRMPs would aim to protect the water quality and hydrological flow systems of streams, the Citywide IRMP is focused on managing piped systems that discharge to tidal or estrarine receiving waters. In this context, there is a need for the Citywide IRMP to revisit common criteria for evaluating performance of stormwater best management practices (BMPs) or alternative combinations of BMPs. The primary criteria relevant to the Citywide IRMP are discussed below in two groups: functional criteria and cost criteria. Functional Criteria X Maximize Water Quality Treatment X Maximize Volume Control (reduced CSOs) X Maximize Aesthetic Benefits X Maximize Biodiversity Benefits X Maximize Public Education, Culture, and Health Values Cost Criteria X Minimize Land or Space Cost X Minimize Material and Construction Cost X Minimize Maintenance Cost X Maximize Property Value X Maximize Longetivity CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-29 FINAL DRAFT False Creek is the receiving body for several stormwater outfalls Functional Criteria The functional Criteria compare how well the proposed Best Management Practice would provide a functional benefit. These objectives may be set out at the federal, provincial or local level, or be encouraged by non- government stakeholders and the general public in engagement events. MAXIMIZE WATER QUALITY TREATMENT A primary driver in rainwater management in Vancouver’s Citywide area is to maintain the water quality of receiving waters. This is particularly important where receiving waters are sensitive, including: X Areas with reduced dilution or dispersion of pollutants, such as False Creek X Areas with high habitat values, such as shorelines of the Fraser River; X Areas with sensitive recreational use, such as beaches along Kitsilano, West End and Jericho. The City also needs to meet Water Quality Guidelines that are established under senior levels of government, and in particular under the Metro Vancouver Liquid Waste Management Plan. A Monitoring and Adaptive Management Framework under consideration between Metro Vancouver and the Province of BC will call for regular monitoring and corresponding ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER ......... CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-30 FINAL DRAFT action to meet prescribed targets for quality of water at outfalls to receiving waters. Specific water quality parameters of concern for piped stormwater include: X Turbidity, which results from erosion of sediments, often from construction activities or materials tracked on to paved surfaces. These suspended solids impact the gills and food visibility for fish, and can settle in and smother the life on the bed receiving waters. X Nitrate (Nitrogen), often from fertilizers or animal feces. X Indicator bacteria (e.g. Enterococci and E. coli) that may indicate the stormwater is contaminated by sanitary waste (e.g. from cross-connections at houses) but can also be due to feces from animals (e.g. dogs, geese, and ducks) or bacteria growing on decaying vegetation (e.g. organic material accumulation in catch basins). X Metals, including iron, copper, lead, zinc and cadmium, which commonly in urban are associated with metal corrosion, vehicle exhaust and brakes/rotors, as well as roof and drainage metal components. X Hydrocarbons from oil drips in parking areas and atmospheric fall-out of exhaust and other emissions. X Secondary concerns in tidal receiving waters are high pH (e.g. concrete wash water), elevated water temperature, and low dissolved oxygen concentrations. In practical terms in the Citywide study area, these water quality objectives create a need to: 1. Provide full sediment and erosion control during construction, and control of wash water. 2. Avoid surface runoff from fertilized landscape areas into the storm sewer system. 3. Proceed with the separation of stormwater from combined sewers, eliminate combined sewer overflows, and find/repair sewer cross- connections. 4. Intercept rainwater that comes into contact with trafficked areas (vehicle parking in particular) and treat runoff from these areas to remove hydrocarbons and heavy metals. 5. Provide regular catch basin maintenance in sewer-separated areas to reduce downstream microbiological contamination. 6. Educate and enforce pollution control standards from point source pollution sources like industrial operations or fueling stations. 7. Give priority to water quality actions in areas where sewer separation is leading to outfalls to surface receiving waters (e.g. Trout Lake, recovered streams, or sensitive tidal waters). CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-31 FINAL DRAFT MAXIMIZE VOLUME CONTROL (REDUCED CSOS) In less urbanized watersheds outside the Citywide study area, Integrated Stormwater Management Plans would pay special attention to the volume of stormwater in order to reduce impacts on receiving streams, flood plains and wetlands. However, at present the Citywide study area, does not have these types of receiving waters that are sensitive to the rate and volume of runoff. The City has an established program to separate combined sewers into separated systems of sanitary and storm sewers. As this program is implemented over the next 35-50 years, there will be new outfalls for stormwater that will fall directly into tidal and estuarine receiving waters around the City. When these stormwater outfalls become active, the Water Quality criteria listed above will become paramount in importance. The volume of stormwater entering tidal receiving waters is, however, not considered a criterion of concern among senior government agencies. However, until such time as separated sewers are completed, there will be continuing combined sewer overflows (CSOs). Reductions in stormwater volume in this interim period will reduce the frequency and size of these CSO events. There is therefore a benefit to actions that reduce impervious area, or redirect stormwater to areas where it can soak in or be stored. Modelling (Effectiveness of Stormwater Source Control, GVSDD, CH2M Hill, December 2002) shows that these ‘stormwater source controls’ can play a significant role in reducing the peak flows from summer cloudbursts, and in reducing the load on the piped stormwater system - having the effect of providing additional capacity to allow for climate-related changes in rainfall patterns. In summary for the Citywide study area, rainwater volume objectives are: 1. Continue with the separation of combined sewers into separate sanitary and stormwater sewer systems. 2. Although stormwater source controls may be driven ultimately by water quality considerations, recognize the benefits in reducing CSOs in the short term, and providing resilience against climate change in the long term. ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-32 FINAL DRAFT MAXIMIZE AESTHETIC BENEFITS The recognition of Vancouver as one of the most desirable places to live on earth is the result of many factors, but the aesthetics of the City is a major component. Stormwater Best Management Practices that add to the beauty of the city provide an important function. Examples of aesthetic objectives include: 1. Maintaining or enhancing the urban forest and tree cover of the City. 2. Choosing other surface plantings that provide visual interest, including shrubs, groundcovers and flowers. 3. Providing lawn areas and open spaces. 4. Including attractive pavement texture, colour and articulation that provide a comfortable pedestrian or cycling environment. 5. Celebrating the presence of rainfall and surface water, and its reflective, movement and ephemeral qualities. 6. Preventing the eutrofication of streams and receiving waters. MAXIMIZE BIODIVERSITY BENEFITS Stormwater elements that support a variety of habitats also add to the value of the City. Examples of biodiversity objectives include: 1. Increasing the presence of surface water streams, wetlands, and sylvan or intermittent ponds and pools. 2. Providing a variety of water and riparian habitats for birds, bees, dragonflies, butterflies and other compatible urban wildlife. 3. Restoring, where possible, fish habitat in the City. MAXIMIZE PUBLIC EDUCATION, CULTURE AND HEALTH VALUES The citizens of Vancouver are highly educated and involved in their City. Many community groups and individuals are actively pursuing: 1. School and public education programs and events that reconnect Vancouver citizens with nature and natural systems. Often these programs include a public art component. 2. Cultural programs and events that bring people outdoors and build neighbourhood community. Green Streets is a good example of volunteer-based community involvement that often involves a stormwater component. 3. Additional amenity along Greenways and Streets to encourage active and healthy transportation like walking, running, cycling. CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-33 FINAL DRAFT Cost Criteria Cost considerations of a stormwater Best Management Practice is not limited to its capital and maintenance costs. With very high land values in the City of Vancouver, and the trend towards increasing density, BMPs need to be effective with minimal land area, and in locations (e.g. street edges or front/side yards) where transportation or building area is not impacted. BMPs also need to consider the potential impact on property value (positive or negative). Property and land value impacts of these BMPS may in many cases be the most significant financial consideration, in particular on private property. MINIMIZE LAND OR SPACE COST With extraordinarily high land values, anything in Vancouver that requires dedicated land that would displace economic uses is a significant cost. The space objectives for stormwater source controls in the Citywide area include: 1. Creating multiple benefits of a given space by layering other uses (e.g. parking, building, circulation or open space uses, traffic calming) under or over stormwater functions. 2. Incorporating stormwater into buildings, either on rooftops or in tanks, minimizing the structural costs of accommodating the stormwater. 3. Integrating stormwater functions into landscape setback and amenity areas, and biodiversity areas as much as possible, so that there is minimal reduction in ‘buildable area’ that is an essential measure of land value. MINIMIZE MATERIAL AND CONSTRUCTION COST The lowest cost BMP is not always the best performing BMP. Cost objectives include: 1. Giving priority to BMPs that provide efficient benefits for the cost. 2. Considering the ‘incremental cost’ of the stormwater benefit, as opposed to costs which may be incurred for other reasons. For example the costs of street tree wells may be largely driven by the need to provide adequate soil volumes for tree growth and to avoid root sidewalk damage, as opposed to being driven by stormwater objectives. Similarly, the cost of a green roof may be aesthetically driven, or for energy and heat island reasons, rather than purely for stormwater benefits. 3. Considering the waste management aspects of a practice – how much deconstruction is required and corresponding solid waste? Are there opportunities to reuse materials like topsoil, organics and compost? ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-34 FINAL DRAFT Infiltration bulges throughout Vancouver enhance the aesthetic quality of city streets. MINIMIZE MAINTENANCE COST The cost of maintenance and operations is of great concern. Objectives include: 1. Isolating the ‘incremental cost of maintenance’ related to stormwater functions. What maintenance would be required even without the stormwater aspects of the best management practice? How often is maintenance required? 2. Considering the traffic management impacts of maintenance. Is machine access needed? 3. Determining what maintenance activities could be combined with other routine maintenance to increase efficiency. 4. Determining if the City has the equipment needed to undertake the maintenance? 5. Determining if there is specialized expertise needed to provide maintenance, or is it well-known practices. 6. Determining the current role of volunteers, fronting property owners and/or contract labour. What is the future role? CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-35 FINAL DRAFT MAXIMIZE PROPERTY VALUE Whereas taxes and fees are commonly a concern, in the case of Vancouver’s Citywide area a minor percent effect on property value can be a very large sum. Objectives in considering the relationship of stormwater BMPs to property value include: 1. Maintaining the high visual and functional quality of streetscapes, street trees and visible areas 2. Avoiding urban decay, or areas of unsightly, weedy or unkempt areas where they front highly maintained private settings (naturalized areas are more acceptable when backed by natural settings). 3. Treating ‘utilities’ as part of the urban fabric, and integrating them into architecture, street furniture and public art 4. Avoid flooding outside infiltration areas, in vehicle and pedestrian traffic areas, and around buildings. MAXIMIZE LONGEVITY If a stormwater BMP has a long service life, it may be worth more initial investment than otherwise. Life-cycle considerations include: 1. Selecting BMPs that have a service life that matches or exceeds the street or development in which they are situated. 2. Considering the consequences of inadequate maintenance or operational errors – is the practice resilient? Summary of Tool Advantages and Disadvantages The 10 criteria above are shown on each Toolkit factsheet and are split into three categories based on how they perform in relation to the BMP: X Best: The criterion provides a high functional benefit in meeting public objectives and/or reducing costs. X Good: The criterion provides a moderate functional benefit in meeting public objectives and/or reducing cost. X Limited Benefit: The criterion has limited benefit to the overall performance of the BMP. The Performance Rating provides an overall summary of how each tool compares with other tools in isolation. Table II-2 summarizes how BMPs are suitable for land uses. Note that exceptions to these ratings will occur on specific site and land use situations. Most important is how the tools work together as a system at the City- wide and drainage basin scales (i.e., what is the optimum combination of tools for each land use typology?).

CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-41 FINAL DRAFT Assumptions and Limitations The analysis and recommended actions in this document are based on review of currently available information, and are in accordance with current planning and engineering practice. Readers should note the following limitations: 1. Maps and quantities shown are based on ‘sample areas’ that are representative of the pattern of conditions across the study area. Actual total quantities may vary. 2. Where unit costs or quantities are shown, these are approximate 2014 dollars CDN suitable for comparison of options, and based on little or no site information, and therefore only accurate within a range of plus or minus 30% (Class D). No warranty is implied or given on accuracy of quantities or unit costs for any given project. 3. Mapping is based on data and polygons from a variety of sources, and is schematic in nature. No warranty is made as to accuracy of map information. 4. Infiltration rates discussed are theoretical based on typical rates in assumed soil conditions, sufficient for general option comparison and policy guidance. Users are advised to gain site-specific hydrotechnical advice as a basis for detail design. 5. Where design detail guidelines are provided, the information is intended as an introduction. Readers are guided to the technical reference documents listed as References in IRMP Volume II and III for more information. In all cases, it is required that professional site-specific design and construction management advice should be sought to customize application of these best practices to a specific site and land use situation. ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-42 FINAL DRAFT Notes: CITY OF VANCOUVER | II-43 FINAL DRAFT Notes: ~y OF I ., GREENEST VANCOUVER .&...L CITY ~TYOF 1 •GREENEST VANCOUVER ..LL CITY @ l Golder Associates Sustainable Communities Attachment D-Strategic Alignment Green Infrastructure Management Strategy 2.3 Bridge the gap between area planning and site planning by creating clear design standards and performance targets for sites, servicing and streets. 2.6 Outline regulations, design standards, and best management practices for green infrastructure in the public realm in areas identified within the green infrastructure network.
