She advised that the Committee has made a strong commitment to the residents who live and reside in the area from 216 Street to 228 Street and from the Fraser River to the northern boundary of the Municipality. The members in that area will become the eyes and ears of the community in order to resolve small issues at hand. They are also currently doing some active work with the youth of the community which will be made public at the appropriate time. Councillor Stewart advised that he is pleased to see that the Committee is underway and noted that community policing has been very effective in other areas. Acting Mayor Gordon added her appreciation to the Committee and spoke in support of involving the community in policing and public safety issues. Ms. Gehring advised that the Committee will be working together with the other community policing committees in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows so that they can all achieve a greater awareness of the issues facing the community. 03.02 Mr. James Allard re Ready Mix Plant on Industrial Avenue Mr. Allard was in attendance accompanied by employees of Maple Ridge Ready Mix. He provided Council with a written submission of his presentation which is summarized as follows: Mr. Allard referred to the recent Supreme Court of Canada decision whereby the Court refused to hear his case and noted that as everyone is well aware, his company has consented to shut down the manufacturing of concrete in their Albion gravel pit by May 29, 1999. Mr. Allard refuted the belief that Maple Ridge Ready Mix has not taken any action to move their ready-mix plant and provided information on various sites they have Council Meeting Minutes May 11, 1999 Page 3 researched or where negotiations were unsuccessful. They have chosen not to pursue the P.V.I. area until they obtain the support of the Webster's Corner residents. He has been in contact with many local realtors, the latest being Brenda Jenkins regarding a piece of M-2 property in the Albion Industrial Park which has been confirmed as a suitable site by the Municipality. He further advised that he has an option agreement in principle with Noble Custom Cut to purchase their land, buildings and assets and an agreement in that regard is currently be executed. Mr. Allard advised that Maple Ridge Ready Mix has the following options, in order of preference: Stay where they are until the gravel is exhausted, then move to a new gravel source. This would require Maple Ridge to extend the 30 day deadline. Relocate to the Municipal pit which is zoned M-2 and develop the pit properly. Maple Ridge and Allards would need to enter into a detailed agreement to do that. Move to the riverfront at Dave Husby's Noble Custom Cut. Brenda Jenkins' 21 acre M-2 property, depending on feasibility Move out of Maple Ridge to Pitt Meadows andlor Mission. Mr. Allard stated that his customers need the ready-mix plant in Maple Ridge and read a letter from Jayman Mater Builders in that regard. He advised that he has applied for a Temporary Industrial Use Permit (TIUP). If Maple Ridge authorizes TIUP he can keep the business running and find a new location for the plant, and at the same time save the jobs of his employees and continue to serve the communty. Mr. Allard provided details of the 1995 Board of Variance Hearing which ruled that the ready-mix plant could stay in the gravel pit and the subsequent court proceedings that followed a successful challenge by the District as to the Board's jurisdiction to hear the case in the first place. He reiterated his request to Council to extend the 30 day shutdown order for a period of time that they feel is reasonable. This could be accomplished by granting an extension or a TIUP. He would then relocate the ready-mix plant and wind up his Albion gravel pit operation. Acting Mayor Gordon advised Mr. Allard that Council will take his request under advisement. Council Meeting Minutes May 11, 1999 Page 4 03.03 Mr. David Laird - Agent for RZ112199 - 11535 and 11555 - 240 Street - (see 06.02.07). Mr. Laird advised that he is representing the applicants. He advised that they made an application in February of 1999 to rezone the subject property from RS-3 to CD-1-93 (to permit approximately 30 single family lots). Since that time, issues have arisen that, have stalled their project and they want to end that blockage. He. referred to the District's guide plan which requires the construction of 116 Avenue in the vicinity of the subject property and adjacent properties, noting that the District wants all the property owners to be involved in achieving that road. He advised that his clients' property does not touch 116 Avenue and to participate in the construction of 116 Avenue would add half a million dollars in construction costs to the project. He further noted that an intervening property owner is not at all interested in developing her property. Mr. Laird further advised that if his clients are forced to participate in the construction of 116 Avenue, this development will not happen. He feels that whether 116 Avenue is built or not built has nothing to do with this project and it will neither hinder nor help it. 116 Avenue was dedicated some 20 or 30 years ago with no particular logic. He wants this development separated out from the rest of the problems on 116 Avenue and the application authorized to proceed to Public Hearing. The Acting Mayor thanked Mr. Laird for his presentation and advised that the application will be dealt with later in the meeting under Item 06.02.07. 04 UNFINISHED BUSINESS Note: Councillor King excused herself from the Council Chamber prior to Item 04.01 being placed on the floor, noting that she is an employee of the School District and the item relates to a school. 04.01 DVP118199 —23795 and 23845— 118 Avenue (to waive the requirement to underground the utilities on 118 Avenue for the construction of a new elementary school).

CARRIED 05.04 1999 Budget By-laws - Final Reading Councillor Clements, Chair of the Audit Committee, read into the record the following statement on the 1999 Budget: "Mr. Mayor: It is my privilege to introduce our 1999 Budget. This Council was faced with significant challenge to produce a balanced budget for 1999, while also maintaining a balanced budget framework for next year. The Provincial economy continues a downward spiral and the Provincial government is struggling with a growing deficit. The Provincial response has been to eliminate the equalization grant to Municipalities. British Columbia Municipalities lost $40.8 million this year; our share was $1.3 million. We are, however, eligible for a one time transition grant of $147,000, as well as a share of Provincial traffic fine revenue in the amount of $205,000. Our net loss for 1999 from traditional Provincial sources is $923,000. In the time since this Council assumed office, we have experienced on a gross basis a total loss of $2.2 million. In addition, the Province has also downloaded the responsibility for secondary highways and asked this Municipality to contribute to the costs of keeping the court house operational in Maple Ridge. Maple Ridge would have required a 12% tax increase to fi.illy recover this revenue loss. For the past two budgets, the Provincial cuts were absorbed by a tax increase, reducing service levels and not replacing staff departures by attrition, and finally, by reducing our capital program. The continuing reduction made it apparent that we coWd not continue to follow this practice. We must restore our capital program to previous levels in order to sustain our infrastructure and maintain the quality service levels. Significant operating changes have been necessary to achieve this outcome. This has been accomplished by elimination of some programs and direction to change the process methodology of others. Our operating budget is reduced by 3.2% as compared to 1998 for $34.2 million and contains a tax increase of 3.95%. 2.95% of this budget increase is necessary to mitigate the loss of the Provincial Unconditional Grant and 1% for our Capital Works Reserve Fund. Our water utility is increased $14 with an adjusted 11% in metered rates. The Council Meeting Minutes May 11, 1999 Page 9 average urban homeowner will experience an overall increase of $36.00 while rural homeowners will experience an overall increase of $22.00. Key highlights of the Budget ae: Balanced Budget - General revenue will generate a small surplus of $79,800. Utility Funds - a deficit is the result of capital expenditures and is provided by the Utility Funds accumulated surplus; this is part of the financial plan to fund major infrastructure expenditures on a graduated time basis. Real growth is $134 million or 3.65% and adds $759,000 of new revenue. Capital Expenditures from general taxation - $2.234 million. Tax Increase - 2.95% for general purpose 1% for Capital Works Reserve. This will generate $852,000. Tax Shift - 1/2% from Major and Light Industry Class to the Residential Class; this shift will cost homeowners $4 to $5. This has been a long term Council policy and reflects our encouragement to promote retention and expansion of industiy in Maple Ridge. Utility Class is adjusted upwards to be aligned with other Municipalities. Major Industiy will experience a net 4.36% reduction of $27,600. Light Industry will experience a net 11.65% reduction of $94,000. This is a good news story promoting Maple Ridge as a place to invest as property taxes for the two industrial classes continues to decline. Water Utility Increase - $14.00 Meter Rate Adjustment of 11% to reflect the flat rate increase. Meter rate groups to be reduced from 5 to 3 which will gradually eliminate a rate structure that promotes more consumption of watet because the rate declines. By the year 2000 there will be only a single rate for metered water; thereafter, meter rates will continue to be gradually adjusted upward until 2000 when rates will achieve an equitable fairness among the user groups. Rothsay Garibaldi Water Rates - $500.00. This rate includes the $143 flat rate fee charged to all homes. The remaining $357.00 is the marginal share paid by the residents towards the capital costs of the infrastructure needed to deliver water to this area. For 1999, this fee will be pro-rated and billed separately. Council Meeting Minutes May 11, 1999 Page 10 Sewer Utility - no general rate increase. Recycling - first time collection service to apartment type housing; the rate is $19.43; this will be pro-rate for 1999. Other service rates are the same as 1998. Collections for other levels of government and their agencies: GVTA - this is a new item on the 1999 tax bill and replaces the levy for the former transit authority. To help fund the GVTA, the levy for the Regional Hospital District is also eliminated. The average home will experience a $3.00 reduction. Library - the levy will fall approximately $5.00 per household. School taxation will rise approximately $4.00 per household after the home owner grant. Average home - assessment has declined $3500 or 1.9% Urban tax bill - $1084; this is up $36 or 3.43% Rural Tax Bill - $674; this is up $22 or 3.3%. A great deal of effort has gone into the budget and business planning process. I would like to take this occasion to thank fellow Council members and staff for their effort and contribution. It has been a difficult challenge, however, I am confident that we will overcome the hurdles and provide our citizens with quality, cost-effective service. I recommend that fourth reading be given to the 1999 annual Budget and associated Tax Rate By-law and amending By-laws for Recycling and Utility Regulations. I also recommend that fourth reading be given to the Penalty Additions By-law. This by- law extends the second penalty date by 30 days to September 3rd. This will grant taxpayers an extension of time before the second 5% penalty is added. I would also remind residents that in order to avoid line-ups, property taxes can be mailed or paid at all major financial institutions. Proper completion of the homeowner grant is necessary or taxpayers will face a penalty for unpaid taxes. For further details, residents are encouraged to visit the Municipal web site. The 1998 annual financial statements and highlights of the budget will be up in the next few weeks. Councillor J.

Discussion Councillor Stewart suggested that the application be deferred until staff can provide further information on the construction of 116 Avenue. The Director of Current Planning advised that Council has directed staff to prepare a feasibility study to determine the necessity of constructing 116 Avenue; From staff's point of view, it is felt that the construction of 116 Avenue provides an opportunity for the connection of a grid system in the Cottonwood guide plan. It is being evaluated if there is an interest by another applicant in the area to cost share that study. If not, Council has agreed that the Municipality should do the study on its own initiative. Councillor Stewart asked if this application should be deferred until the results of the study are received. The Director of Current Planning suggested moving ahead with the study and permitting the application to proceed at the same time in order to avoid undue delay. The motion CARRIED. Council Meeting Minutes May 11, 1999 Page 16 06.02.08 RZ123197 - 11619 - 236 Street and 11688 and 11760 Cottonwood Drive - RS-3 to RM-1 Reference was made to the staff report dated April 20, 1999 in support of the following recommendation with respect to the subject application to permit approximately 95 townhouse units. R199-238 MOVED by Councillor King RZ123/97 SECONDED by Councillor Baker to Public Hearing that application RZ123/97 (for properties located at 11619 - 236 Street and 11688 and 11760 Cottonwood Drive ) to rezone property described in the staff report dated April 20, 1999 from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) be forwarded to Public Hearing, noting that the conditions to be met prior to Public Hearing and prior to final consideration of the Zone Amending By-law are detailed in that report and that the accompanying Official Community Plan Amending By-law be forwarded to the same Public Hearing. Discussion Councillor King questioned how far the residents will have to go to access commercial facilities. She questioned if some very small pieces of land should be designated Commercial in subdivisions where people are far away from stores in order to decrease their dependence ori the automobile. The Director of Current Planning displayed an overhead map of the site. He noted that it is a very difficult and challenging area to construct roads in and further resolution is still needed as to how they will be accomplished. He further noted that staff was asked to evaluate the need for commercial sites, such as a local corner store, etc. as part of the Cottonwood land use plan, particularly on the west side of Cottonwood. Councillor Levens asked if anyone has ever done a study on how many people are needed before a corner store can be a viable option. She would like to receive that information. She noted that people from several other neighbourhoods have turned out in full force to say they do not want a corner store. Most people shop at malls these days and she is not sure it is necessary to have a corner store in every little development. If no one wants to walk to a corner store, the land designated for that purpose will sit empty. She feels that Council needs to look into this very carefully based on all the information before making a decision. Council Meeting Minutes 11 May 11, 1999 Page 17 Councillor Clements stated that designating areas for Commercial as suggested would set a precedent and questioned how this would impact areas that are already developed. The Director of Current Planning advised that the Official Community Plan (OCP) recognizes existing local commercial sites in established urban areas. There are several scattered throughout the community. Commercial areas have also been designated in the Albion and Silver Valley areas. The issue that was raised for staff to address was whether there was a deficiency of commercial facilities in the Cottonwood area and staff will be bringing forward a report on that issue. Councillor King noted that the availability of neighbourhood commercial facilities which are not dependent on the automobile is an important issue, particularly in the Fraser Valley where the quality of air is consistently a matter of concern. She asked that when the application comes forward to Public Hearing that a presentation be made on pedestrian and bicycle trail network that is mentioned in the report. Councillor Stewart spoke in support of obtaining public input which will likely indicate whether people want a convenience store or not. The motion CARRIED. 06.02.09 Planning Grant Requests for 1999 Reference was made to the staff report recommending that the Planning grant request for projects detailed in the report be supported.

R/99-241 MOVED by Councillor King Bridge Crossing SECONDED by Councillor Clements Report that the report entitled Bridge Crossing dated April 26, 1999 outlining a number of strategic issues in relation to a future bridge crossing connecting Maple Ridge with Langley be received for information. Discussion The General Manager of Public Works and Development Services advised that his report includes the Terms of Reference for the Fraser River Crossing Planning and Evaluation Study being done by a consultant for the Ministry of Transportation and Highways to determine the best location for a crossing of the Fraser River. He noted that the results of the study are expected, in mid June. The consultant has been directed to evaluate three "high level" crossings in the following corridors - Bamston; 200 Street; and Cottonwood. In addition, the study is to review the feasibility of a low level crossing to the Cottonwood or Albion areas. He further highlighted from his report some of the reasons why this bridge crossing is important to Maple Ridge. He noted that a new bridge would serve regional as well as Municipal interests. In the Maple Ridge context, it would provide greater accessibility and contribute to employment opportunities. A new bridge would also provide greater accessibility to regional town centres on both Council Meeting Minutes May 11, 1999 Page 19 sides of the Fraser River. He added that the issue of timing should also be considered; it is obvious that there is justification now for a bridge. Acting Mayor Gordon advised that the Bicycle Advisory Committee finds the Albion Ferry very bicycle friendly and wants to know what provisions will be made for cyclists on the new bridge. They would like to know how they can have input into that issue at an early stage. - The General Manager of Public Works and Development Services responded that no design work has been done at this point; the study by the Ministry of Transportation and Highways will first determine the most logical corridor for the bridge. He would suggest that the Bicycle Advisory Committee forward their comments to the Ministry's regional office. Councillor King questioned the role of the Greater Vancouver Transportation Authority (GVTA) in this initiative and if they are working co-operatively with the Province. The General Manager of Public Works and Development Services clarified that it is a Provincial study which is not being funded in any part by the GVTA. The Province has interviewed the GVTA and several Municipalities at the staff level. A general discussion took place on the benefits the bridge crossing would have to Maple Ridge and the region and the operating costs of the Albion ferry which are now, the responsibility of the GVTA. The motion CARRIED. 06.03 Financial and Corporate Services (including Fire and Police) 06.03.0 1 Red Light Intersection Cameras Reference was made to the staff report dated April 16, 1999 in support of the following recommendation contained therein: R/99-242 MOVED by Councillor Levens Intersection SECONDED by Councillor Stewart Cameras that the District of Maple Ridge enter into an agreement with the Integrated Traffic Camera Unit and approve the installation of intersection safety cameras on the understanding that: 1. No costs will be incurred by the District of Maple Ridge; Council Meeting Minutes May11, 1999 Page 20 2. Site selection and camera positioning will be through consultation with the Ridge-Meadows R.C.M.P. and the Maple Ridge Engineering Department; 3. The following intersections in Maple Ridge are being proposed by the Integrated Traffic Camera Unit: Highway No. 7 and Dewdney Trunk Road Highway No. 7 and 207 Street Highway No. 7 and 203 Street Highway No. 7 and Laity Street V. Highway No. 7 and 224 Street. 4. That the Municipal Clerk be instructed to write to the Attorney General's office concerning the issue of revenue sharing but those negotiations should not impede the timely implementation of this initiative. Discussion Councillor Stewart stated that he requires more information on who the District is entering into an agreement with and where the funding is coming from. The Chief Administrative Officer explained that the Integrated Traffic Camera Unit (ITCU) is a joint effort between the RCMP and the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC). The red light intersection camera program is essentially aimed at reducing accidents caused by people actually going through red lights which is an increasing problem. The costs will not be borne by the District of Maple Ridge. They are paid for by the ITCU. This also means that the District does not receive any revenues from the fines. Councillor Levens noted that Council was given a presentation by the ITCU and she is supportive of the program. Councillor King also voiced her support. The motion CARRIED.

The General Manager of Public Works and Development Services explained that the project is included in the Capital Works budget and will provide a second link into the Industrial Park. There will be an improvements at Lougheed Highway and 203 Street, i.e. a left turn movement for traffic turning into the mall and a left turn lane at 203 and Dewdney Trunk road eastbound. The largest project is the one Mr. Phillips has alluded to. Specific drawings have not yet been prepared to demarcate the intersection, however, now that the project has been approved in the budget, the design can proceed. Mr. Phillips stated that the school is concerned about being next to a busy road. Mr. Phillips questioned where the money came from to make the Municipal float roadworthy, noting that when the Mountain Festival wanted to purchase it, they were turned down because they did not have the funds to fix it. Councillor Levens advised that the float was checked and it passed with no problems. Mr. Phillips stated that he heard a rumour that someone put fresh fertilizer in the ground before the Governor General's visit on May 4th. He also advised that the Province newspaper reported that the event was on the Monday instead of the Tuesday. Mr. David Bantle —11724-225 Street re Funds for Bridge Crossing Mr. Bantle questioned where the funds will come from for a bridge crossing. The General Manager of Public Works and Development Services advised that the only action being taken at this time is the study that is currently underway to determine from the Province's perspective the most appropriate alignment for the bridge. All the other issues have not yet been dealt with. Mr. Bantle noted that ultimately the taxpayers will be funding the bridge. He added there is a need for improved pedestrian and bicycle facilities in Maple Ridge and feels that if money can be found for a bridge, it can be found for alternative transportation.

Durksen DATE: March 30, 1999 and Members of Council FILE NO: DVP/18/99 FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: C of W - PW & Dev SUBJECT: DVP/18/99 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: School District 42 has applied to rezone property to permit construction of a new elementary school in the 23700 block of 118th Ave. A review of servicing standards indicates that the proposed P-i (Park and School) zone requires upgrading of 1 18th Avenue to current urban standards. One of the required services is the conversion of existing overhead utilities on 1 18th Avenue to an underground facility. As the span distance of this upgrade is less than 250 meters as detailed in the policy on overhead service conversion, staff recommend that Council waive the requirement to underground the utilities. RECOMMENDATION: That the Municipal Clerk be authorized to notify qualifying property owners that approval of DVP/18/99 respecting the property located at 23795 & 23845118Th Avenue, will be considered by Council at the May 11th 1999 meeting. BACKGROUND: Applicant: School District #42 Owner: School District #42 Legal: Lot 61 Section 16, Township 12, NWD Plan 40979 and East Half Lot 21 Section 16, Township 12, NWD Plan 1676 OCP Designation: School Proposed Zoning: P-i (Park and School) Surrounding Uses: N: One Family Urban Residential S: One Family Urban Residential E: One Family Urban Residential W: Park Existing Use: Vacant land Variance Requested: Conversion of Existing Overhead Utility Wiring to Underground. e -1- Discussion: The subject site is currently under application to rezone to P-i (Park and School). As a result of the servicing review it has been determined that the abutting road to this development, 1 18th Avenue, is required to be upgraded to an urban standard. Included in this upgrading is the conversion of overhead services to an underground facility on 1 18th Avenue. Although the subject site is not within the exemption boundary the current policy indicates that Council will support a development variance permit to waive this requirement since there is less than a total of 250 metres of contiguous redevelopment potential fronting 118Ih Avenue opposite the school site. Further, in this case where undergrounding will be less than 250 metres, the Developer will service his development with underground dips off the overhead line and deposit with the Municipality sufficient funds to achieve the required undergrounding in the future. CONCLUSION: The applicant has requested that the requirement to convert the existing overhead utility to an underground facility be waived. Staff recommends that Council support this request as it is consistent with current Council Policy. (J( R.W. Robertson, MCIP, AICP Chief Administrative Officer B.

Lot 3) SUMMARY: This development proposal is to develop approximately 146 residential units under a CD zone and 8 residential units under an RS-lb zone. The development site consists of four separate properties. There are several physical constraints that impact the site. In order to facilitate an orderly development plan, staff have prepared a CD zone for the majority of the site. This zone will allow the development of lands under the RS-lb, R-1, RM-1 & RG zones. A separate bylaw has been prepared for an RS- lb zone on the south eastern portion of the site for an anticipated early phase. Two separate CD-1-99 bylaws have been prepared to reflect current ownership. Council gave favourable consideration to the above noted application December 15, 1998 with the stipulation that prior to being presented at a Public Hearing, the following would be complied with: 1) A Public Information Meeting must be held. The observations from that meeting are attached. 2) Fully dimensioned development plan including: a plan that identifies development limits in accordance with the Land Development Guidelines; design proposals that address the requirements of the Hillside Policies of the Official Community Plan; a proposed trail network through the development site. 3) An Environmental Assessment which provides technical justification for development within the Conservation areas. An Environmental Assessment of the Conservation Area has been received. This will require preliminary approval from the Ministry of Environment prior to final reading. Their comments may impact on the subdivision lcryour and yiefrL The above has been received and it is recommended that 1st reading be given to the subject bylaw. RECOMMENDATION That Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 5774-1999, 5778-1999 & 5771-1999 and Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 5775-1999 be given First Reading. r- \- Gay Por, Planning Technician • IA R.

Lot 3 Approximately sixty people attended the public information meeting from 6 to 9 p.m. at Eric Langton School. In attendance were: Paul Hayes, Peter Hayes, Ron Hoffart and Mark Adams who made informal presentations and answered questions to members of the public. The attached questionnaire was prepared and distributed. Although about thirty questionnaires were taken none were filled out and left at the venue. Advice was given that' the completed questionnaires could be returned directly to the Planning Department. These minutes are made from the notes which were taken by the consultants. There is a concern about the existing private bridge which aosses the North Alouette to provide access to the Poole property. The issue is that the residents of the Birch Avenue area do not want to have their privacy compromised by vehicular, pedestrian or especially horse traffic across that bridge. The point was made repeatedly by a number of Birch Avenue residents. There was a follow-up observation that beside the existing bridge there is a twenty foot publicly owned pathway. The future of this little strip of land was raised. The reply was that the entire pan handle of land on which the bridge exists would become park therefore the assumption would be that this strip, would also become park. The residents present would prefer if there were no public access to the park from the west side of the river. It would be preferable for the pan handle piece to become a lot fronting on 233rd. st . Public access from the west to the river would not be desirable as mentioned earlier but if the bridge were removed or destroyed (its an old bridge) public access to the water would be a nuisance to the residents since there is no park on the west side of the river. The river side properties go right down to the water even in some cases to the centre of the river. Similar points were raised about public access to other riverside parcels further south. There was a question about the future development of the lands to the west between the river and 232nd St. The Silver Valley Land Use Guide plan of July 1998 was shown to them. This caused some discussion and dispute as to why the Birch Avenue area was indicated as a conservation area on that plan. It was speculated that the potential for flooding may be a factor since conservation did not only mean habitat protection. There was further dispute about whether any of this area has ever flooded in. the past. r 0 page2of3 The density was questioned. The proposal is for 120 lots and 27 multiple units. On a net bases with roads and parks deleted this works Out to 11.7uph (4.7upa). In response to the observation that much of this land was a gravel pit at an earlier time there was a question about- the extent of regrading. The contour drawings before and after were shown. The main objective is to facilitate at least one north-south through road and to regrade the gravel remains to a more useful profile. The cross-sections were shown to illustrate how the houses would fit on the terrain. The principle illustrated was on the sloping portions to have a maximum of a one storey daylight basement on the downside or a one storey basement on the uphill side without extensive retaining walls. At the south of the property, it was observed that there is a minor north-south depression running parallel to the river. It was questioned if this would be filled. It was observed that the depression was not in the setback from the water course and would be in the rear yards of the lots backing on to the equestrian trail and park. It was not the intention to alter that grade. The houses would have daylight basements backing onto that area. There was no evidence that this area flooded and was not indicated as such on the Water Management Branch drawings. Since the ground is very porous it was assumed that there would be no flooding there. Nevertheless it was observed that filling this area would not be of benefit to the environment The size of the lots fronting the river was sought. These lots range in size from 642 m 2 to 1810 m2 There seemed to be a preference for larger lots fronting the water since they would be more in character with the existing houses on the west side of the water. The residents do not want to see asphalt or a view of Mary Hill houses across the river from them. The appropriate drawings and cross-sections were referenced to confirm that no house would be constructed on the slope and that no asphalt would be visible. There was little support for access by the public at large to the park proposed beside the river. The land owners on the west side observed that it would be an on going trespass nuisance for them since the west side has the superior beaches. Security concerrss were also raised. The preference would be for a neighborhood scale park. The general public would have Maple Ridge Park and Golden Ears and this little one could be for the neighborhood. page 3 of 3 The residents of 13285 Balsam Avenue described a current flooding problem in BaLsam and 233rd St. It would appear that a north south ditch has been filled along Balsam and that an east west culvert under the road transfers water westward which in turn gets trapped on the subject property or floods the westward properties fronting on 233rd Street Numerous reports have been made to the district The question now is will this development exacerbate this situation? The reply was that a new north south storm line would extend down both Balsam Avenue and 233rd Street and that the appropriate storm connections would be made. The connection to the existing east-west problem culvert which deposits the east water on to the subject property may solve the problem. It was assumed that the developer would not be constructing this storm line since it was a DCC item. The timing for this was not ascertained 1 to 'I CORPORATION OF THE DISTRICT OF MAPLE RIDGE TO: His Worship Mayor C. Durksen DATE: November 24, 1998 and Members of Council FILE NO: RZ/9/98 FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: C of W - PW & Dev SUBJECT: RZ/9/98 (13396-233 St. & 23451 & 23469 Larch Ave. and a portion of Rem. Lot 3) SUMMARY: This application is for approximately 124 lots varying in size from 371 m 2 to 557 m2, and three multi-family sites (approximately 31 units). The densities comply with Official Community Plan, Schedule "B". Some key issues follow: • Site constraints and environment concerns impact the development proposal. It is anticipated that amendments to the development proposal may result. • The development site is not currently serviced. Off —site works are required • Trails network impact the properties. The system must be achieved through this application. • Dedication of the conservation area is required. RECOMMENDATION: That application RZ/9/98 (for property located at 13396 - 233 St. & 23451 & 23469 Larch Ave. and a portion of Rem. Lot 3) to rezone property described in the memorandum dated November 24, 1998 from RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to Ri (Residential District), RG (Group Housing), RS-lb (One Family Urban (medium density) Residential) & RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) be forwarded to Public Hearing noting that the conditions to be met prior to Public Hearing and prior to final consideration of the Zone Amending Bylaw are detailed in that memorandum and that the accompanying Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw be forwarded to the same Public Hearing. Condition to be met prior to first reading: 1) A Public Information Meeting must be held. 2) Fully dimensioned development plan including: a plan that identifies development limits in accordance with the Land Development Guidelines; design proposals that address the requirements of the Hillside Policies of. the OCP; a proposed trail networkthrough the developmeni site. 3) An Environmental Assessment which provides technical justification for development within the Conservation areas. -1- And that prior to final approval the following must be complete: Registration of a Rezoning Development Agreement including the deposit of security as outlined in the Agreement; Amendment to Schedule "A" & "H" of the Official Community Plan; An application to the Clerks Office for inclusion of the site into Sewer Area "A"; Park Dedication and return to Crown of the North Alouette River; Final reading to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 5717-1998; Dedication of 233 Street as required; Dedication of lands required to achieve the trail network; Consolidation of the development site if required. BACKGROUND: The subject development site is located in Silver Valley adjacent to the North Alouette River. It consists of four separate parcels totaling 15 ha in size. The western part was once used as a gravel pit. The development proposal is for residential use to achieve a variety of lot sizes, including three multi-family sites. Development Proposal: The development proposal for the western portion identifies the extension of 233 St. and Balsam St. to the north. The 233 St. extension will end in a cul de sac and provide access to a strata development under the RG zone. Balsam St. will extend to the north boundary of the site and provide access to lands lying beyond. There are 9 lots proposed for the eastern portion as well as a townhouse site which will access from the extension of a new street off Larch Ave. The development plan proposes approximately 124 single family dwelling qni.ts and 31 strata units on three separate sites. Two of the multi family sites have limited street frontage and cdnsequently parking issues will be a concern for these sites. The third strata site proposes RG zoning to provide large bare land strata lots which will accommodate parking needs. -2- Policy Implications: Official Community Plan: Schedule "B" There is currently an Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw at Y d Reading to amend Schedule "B". This amendment redefines the area shown as Conservation to reflect the actual location of Balsam Creek. This Bylaw was considered with the development application of the adjacent land and must receive final reading prior to this application. The development proposal will comply with the amended Official Community Plan. An Official Community Plan amendment will be necessary to Schedule "A" and "H" to include the multi family sites into a Development Permit Area to ensure the form and character of the development at the Building Permit stage. Schedule "E" There are two watercourses designated for Special Treatment on Schedule "E". The most significant is the North Alouette River which runs along the western portion of the site. Balsam Creek runs along the south and the eastern boundary of the site. The plan of development identifies housing on what appears to have been historically the flood plain for the North Alouette River. The Manager of Environmental Affairs has expressed concerns with the risks associated with development in a historic flood plain and requested that an assessment be required to ensure that the North Alouette is not capable of relocating to this area in the future. These two watercourses are within Development Permit Area XXVI and Development Permit Area XXX Development Permit Area XXVI This Development Permit Area was established to protect the natural environment and is based on the Gartner Lee Report which was prepared for Council to provide an environmental assessment and development guidelines for Silver Valley. This development site has High Sensitivity and Moderately High Sensitivity and the Development Permit Area guidelines and objectives will apply. As well, Official Community Plan policies have been established to provide specific objectives and guidelines for areas of High and Moderately High Sensitivity. Development Permit Area XXX The Development Permit Area is established to preserve the functions and characteristics of watercourses and wetlands which are important to the integrity of the natural environment and fish and wildlife habitat. The importance of the North Alouette may require that protection limits for the river be substantially greater than those for minor streams. -3- Consistent with Council's practices in dealing with environmentally sensitive lands, it is recommended that the watercourses and the areas required for habitat protection be dedicated as Park prior to final reading. Schedule "F" There is an equestrian trail network shown on Schedule "F' of the Official Community Plan that impacts the site. The Official Community Plan also shows a pathway system through the site linking Maple Ridge Park and the North Alouette River. The Equestrian Trail system is an interim system to allow equestrian movement through the Silver Valley area and links to Golden Ears Park/Maple Ridge Park and the Malcolm Knapp Research Forest. The location of this trail system is currently under review and may be relocated from 236 St. to the north side of Balsam Creek. Staff have been working with the Equestrian Trails Council to establish a permanent trail system which will avoid conflicts with urban areas as well as determining interim solutions for existing trails impacted by development. A portion of this permanent system runs along the eastern boundary of the North Alouette River. It will be necessary to achieve these trails through the rezoning process. The method of securing this trail would be by dedication prior to final approval of the Zone Amending Bylaw. Construction will be required as a condition of subdivision approval.. The trail should be a minimum of 6 m wide and be located outside and adjacent to the habitat protection area. Hillside Policies The development of this site is subject to the Hillside Policies of the Official Community Plan. Tht. development proposal involves a considerable amount of regrading of the old gravel pit. It is recommended that appropriate reference to lot grading, house design and road construction be provided that addresses the Hillside Policies. Environmental Protection Policies The watercourses on site (North Alouette & Balsam Creek) are designated Conservation Areas. These areas are intended for maintenance of natural environmental characteristics and are intended for minimal use. This Policy is beyond the Development Permit Area controls and the Tree Protection Bylaw and will ensure a development approach that attempts to minimize negative environmental impacts. In concert with Policy 88 of the Official Community Plan, these policies encourage public access to major ravine systems and attempt to limit the potential for conflict with nearby private ownership. This proposal is not consistent with these policies and should be amended to reflect their intent. The Alouette River also provides a significant wildlife corridor for migratory mammals and birds who depend on riparian corridors to provide sources of food, breeding areas and cover from predators and should not be cut off or destroyed by development. Servicing Concerns: The Engineering Department have identified that all the services required for the development proposal are not available to the site. It will therefore be necessary to have the owner enter into a Rezoning Development Agreement and post security to do the works prior to final reading. It may be necessary to consolidate the development site in order to achieve the servicing issues as well. -4- The following are Servicing issues and concerns which must be addressed prior to final reading. Some of the main concerns: • Sanitary sewer, a sanitary sewer pump station is anticipated; • Storm Sewer/Drainage upgrading; • Water Main construction; - • Off Site road construction. CONCLUSION: The development is in compliance with the land use designation of the Official Community Plan. Staff are of the opinion that some of the environmental policies have not been fully addressed and anticipate a revised geometry for the western portion of the site as it relates to the North Alouette River.

II RECOMMENDATION: That the Municipal Clerk be authorized to notify qualifying property owners that approval of DVP/14/98 respecting property located at 10884, 10862 & 10936 240 St. will be considered by Council at the May 25, 1999 meeting.

()~~ Variance Requested: Schedule "A" of Maple Ridge Subdivision and Development Servicing Bylaw for postponement of servicing upgrading and waiving of the conversion of overhead utilities. IV HISTORY Council deferred consideration of this application at their meeting of September 29, 1998 and referred it back to staff for a review of the underground utility policy. The variances requested were for: a modified road standard for roads within the subdivision; converting the overhead utility on 240 St. Staff supported the variance for undergrounding the overhead utilities but did not support the modified road standards. Since then the applicant has withdrawn the request fora modified Street standard, but instead has requested that the construction of a portion of 240 St. and 110 Ave. be postponed until a future phase of subdivision. V VARIANCE REQUESTED: Conversion of overhead utilities. The overhead wires on 240 Street are B.C. Hydro lines. B.C. Hydro criteria for conversion excludes high voltage wires or lengths with fewer than five spans. Council, based on B.C. Hydro's criteria, adopted the following policy on July 23, 1996: "Council will support development variance permit applications to waive the requirement of Maple Ridge Subdivision and Development Servicing Bylaw 4800 - 1993 as amended, to provide underground wiring on highway right of ways serviced by existing overhead utility systems, where the abutting road is required to upgraded to an urban standard, on the condition that the existing overhead utility system is shown on the attached plan". The service along 240 St. fronting the property is included on the plans attached to this policy. Postponement of road upgrading. The Maple Ridge Subdivision and Development Servicing Bylaw requires that all roads within or adjacent to a proposed subdivision be provided with full urban services. This subdivision is being phased and the applicant has requested that the upgrading of portions of 240 Street & 110 Avenue (shown on the attached sketch) be postponed until a later phase of subdivision. Staff have reviewed the request and support the variance. -2- VI CONCLUSION: Based on the above, the Planning Department recommends that DVP/14/98 be given favourable consideration.

In this area, there are two zone amending bylaws at 3 reading; one for a commercial use and one for a townhôusè use. The completion of these bylaws will require the urban upgrading to 236 St. This postponement will allow the present horse trail to remain and will avoid the construction of a rural standard road that is required of a subdivision involving these lands. When urban development of the area occurs, this street will be developed an urban standard. II RECOMMENDATION: That the Municipal Clerk be authorized to notify qualifying property owners that approval of DVP/22/99 respecting property located on the north east corner of 133 Ave. and 236 St. will be considered by Council at the May 25, 1999 meeting.

The subject property is located in Silver Valley. The requested variance is for a portion of 236 St. which will be dedicated through a current subdivision application. That dedication requires that the road be constructed, in this case to a rural standard. Presently this right of way is used for a horse trail and it is felt that the construction at this time would serve no useful purpose. The area in question is slated for urban development and any construction at this time to comply with the existing zoning would require substantial alteration when urban development occurs.

RECOMMENDATION: That application RZ/18197 (for property located on the North East corner of 227 St. & 117 Ave.) to rezone property described in the memorandum dated November 3, 1997 from RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) to RM-3 (High Density Apartment) be forwarded to Public Hearing noting that the conditions to be met prior to Public Hearing and prior to final consideration of the Zone Amending Bylaw are detailed in that memorandum and that the accompanying Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw be forwarded to the same Public Hearing. Condition to be met prior to first reading: 1) Comments from the Advisory Design Panel. 2) A Public Information Meeting must be held. 3) Fully dimensioned development plan including: Neighbourhood context plan;. Site plan; Building elevations; Landscape concept; 4) A full contextual analysis which superimposes the development proposal over the adjacent neighbourhood. And that prior to final approval the following must be complete: 1) Approval from the Ministry of Transportation and Highways; -1- - Registration of a Rezoning Development Agreement including the depbsit of security as outlined in the Agreement; Amendment to Schedule "A" & "H" of the Official Community Plan; A geotechnical report which addresses the suitability of the site for the proposed development; Road dedication as required; Completion of works agreed to under Servicing Agreement SD/10/94 BACKGROUND: The site is part of the Fraserview Village development site. The proposal is a departure -from the form of apartment development that has occurred in the area to date. This concept would see the construction of two mid-rise towers where other projects have typically been three and four storey wood frame buildings. A full contextual analysis of the proposal has been requested for presentation to the Advisory Design Panel. This is viewed as essential in order that the full impact of this change in form be recognized and adequate opportunity be provided to resolve any concerns. Policy ImDlications: Official Community Plan: The site is designated Conservation and Apartment District and this application is in compliance with these designations. It will be necessary to amend the Official Community Plan and include the site into a Development Permit Area to ensure the form and character of the development at the building permit stage. Outside Agencies: The site is within 800 m of the Lougheed Highway. It will therefore be necessary for the Ministry of Transportation and Highways to approve the Zone Amending Bylaw under Section 57 of the Highway Act prior to final reading of the Zone Amending Bylaw. Servicing Concerns: - The Engineering Department has identified that all the services required to support the development proposal do not exist to the site. It will therefore be necessary for the owner to enter into a Rezoning Development Agreement and post security to do the works prior to final reading. The works will also include the dedication and construction of 117 Avenue north to Ritchie Avenue to a -2- full urban standard. The developer must obtain approval from B.C. Gas for the works in their right- of-way. It will also be necessary for the developer to complete works at the end of 227 Street and a servicing agreement has been executed to complete these works. Since these works are not yet completed, it is recommended that, prior to final approval, the works identified under Servicing Agreement SD/10/94 be completed. It will be necessary to provide a geotechnical report which addresses the suitability of site for the proposed development. This report must also address construction of services. CONCLUSION: Staff supports the land use and recommends that the application be forwarded to Public Hearing.

This will permit subsequent subdivision into 2 lots 2.0 ha each. The owner proposes to subdivide the property into two equal parcels providing road frontage and access from 104th Avenue to both lots. V PLANNING ANALYSIS Official Community Plan The property is located within a neighbourhood designated Rural Residential (0.5 upnh). Accordingly the proposed A-i (Small Holding Agricultural) conforms to the existing Official Community Plan designation. There are two watercourses identified on Schedule "E" of the OCP designated for special treatment. The first, unnamed, is located central to the site and the second, Vincent Creek, bisects the northwest corner of the property. Vincent Creek flows southwest, merges with Whonnock Creek and discharges into the Fraser River. Due to the low impact form of development, this application has not been referred to the Ministry of Environment. However the environmental protection policies of the OCP apply. Servicing The property is not served with a municipal water or sanitary sewer system. Accordingly each lot will have to be provided with a well for the domestic water supply and a septic field system approved by the Ministry of Health. These items will be dealt with at the subdivision stage. -2- VI CONCLUSION: This application to rezone the subject site to A-i (Small Holding Agricultural) conforms to the Official Community Plan designation of Rural Residential. Accordingly it is recommended that the application be forwarded to Public Hearing. Dave"kvenson, PlanninjtE1nician ~J il'~~ ~ R. W.

Owner: Narinder Dhir & Pram Dhir Legal Description: Lot 10, Plan 30256 & Lot 11, Plan 30498, both of Sec. 16, Tp. 12, NWD OCP: Existing: Single Family Residential (15, 18, 30 upnh) Compact Housing (40 upnh) Conservation Proposed: No change Zoning: Existing: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Proposed: CD- 1-93 (Comprehensive Development) Surrounding Uses: N: Rural Residential S: Urban Residential E: Agricultural W: Horseshoe Creek (Conservation) Existing Use of Property: Rural Residential Proposed Use of Property: approximately 30 single family lots. Access: The subdivision will be accessed by the extensions of 239A St. and the lane that have been constructed to the south lot line. The lots abutting 240 St. and those immediately to the west will have access from the lane. A cul de sac will be constructed west of 239A St. to provide access to approximately 9 lots. Servicing: All urban services will be provided in the municipal streets. IV PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant has applied to rezone the subject properties to CD-1-93 (Comprehensive Development) to permit subsequent subdivision into approximately 30 lots. Development of this site will provide for the extension of 239A Street and a lane parallel to 240 Street. The lots fronting on 240 Street and the east side of 239A Street will be accessed via the lane. This pattern of development is consisterit with the pattern established with recently completed residential development to the south. This development also includes a cul de sac extending west from 239A Street to provide access to approximately 9 lots. The Cottonwood guide plan shows 239A Street and the lane parallel to 240 Street extending north to 116 Avenue and then east to 240 Street. There is one lot (Lot 12) located between this project and 116 Avenue. Approximately one-third of Lot 12 is "Conservation" and the balance of the site -2- yields approximately 7 lots. With Lot 12 adjacent to 116 Avenue, a condition of developing Lot 12 will be the construction of 116 Avenue to 240 Street. The cost of constructing 116 Avenue and required extensions to 239A Street and the lane to achieve a 7 lot subdivision is prohibitive, and staff are concerned that the connection to 240 Street may be difficult or impossible to achieve. Various alternatives are available to.resolve this matter, and it is recommended that this issue be resolved prior to presentation of this application at Public Hearing. V PLANNING ANALYSIS Official Community Plan The east half of the development site is designated Single Family Residential (15, 18 & 30 upnh). The west half of the site is designated Compact Housing (40 upnh) and Conservation. Although the Compact Housing designation recognized physical limitations in developing adjacent to Horseshoe Creek, the developer has demonstrated that a single family subdivision under the CD-1-93 zone can be accomplished while providing adequate riparian protection. The subject site is located within Development Permit Area No. XX identified on Schedule "H" of the Official Community Plan. This Development Permit Area provides guidelines for the protection of the natural environment, and in this instance, specifically to protect Horseshoe Creek, which is designated for Special Treatment on Schedule "E" of the Official Community Plan. It is recommended that.a geotechnical report be submitted which addresses environmental concerns related to development adjacent to a watercourse. This report must also address the suitability of service, road and house construction. Areas designated for protection are to be dedicated as Park prior to final approval of the zone amending bylaw. Servicing All urban services are located at the south end of the development site. However this technically only services Lot 10. In order to secure services to Lots 11 & perhaps Lot 12 at the rezoning stage, the developer must enter into a rezoning development agreement and submit the appropriate security. There must also be a statutory right of way agreement and reference pian registered over LOts 10 & 11 & perhaps Lot 12. The alternative is consolidation of the development site. -3- VI CONCLUSION: The project as proposed conforms to the Official Community Plan designations and is a logical extension of approved land use to the south. However, securing for the construction of 116 Avenue to preserve the integrity of the neighbourhood Street network is important and should be resolved prior to presentation at Public Hearing.

III BACKGROUND: Applicant: Owner: Legal Description: OCP: Existing: Proposed: Zoning: Existing: Proposed: Surrounding Uses: N: S: E: W: Existing Use of Property: -2- Proposed Use of Property: 95 townhouse units. Access: Cottonwood Drive and 116 Avenue. The existing single family dwelling is accessed from 236 St. Servicing: Upgrading required for the Cottonwood Drive and 116 Avenue frontages to achieve bylaw standards for the RM-1 zone.. Previous Applications: RZ/21/92, RZ/17/94, RZ/50/93, SD/20/92 & SD/24/95 IV PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The development site is approximately 8.26 ha in area and consists of four separate properties and a portion of Cottonwood Drive. A road exchange will be necessary to include the redundant portion of Cottonwood drive into the development site. As well, two of the properties involved in this application will be subdivided off of the development site; Lot 28 currently hooked across Cottonwood Drive and Pd "A", which is physically separated by the ravine/watercourse system and contains a single family dwelling. The site is impacted by watercourses tributary to Cottonwood Creek. This creek system is contained in a ravine which runs along the eastern boundary of the development site creating an irregular shaped development site. The site is physically divided into two separate development sites by the ravine/watercourse system. The development plan shows approximately 76 townhouse units on the northerly portion of the site adjacent to Cottonwood Drive and 19 townhouses on the southerly portion of the site adjacent to 116 Avenue. It will be necessary to consolidate the development site and subdivide the homesite on the, east side of the site adjacent to 236 Street from the balance of the site V PLANNING ANALYSIS (i) Official Community Plan Schedule "B" The development site is designated Compact Housing (40 upnh) and Conservation on Schedule "B" of the Official Community Plan. The development proposal is in compliance with that designation. Schedule "E" The property is designated for special treatment on ,Schedule "E" and is subject to Development Permit Area XXX (Watercourse Protection). The applicant has provided an environmental assessment of the development site. This assessment assumes a loss of habitat and therefore provides for some mitigation measures to improve certain areas of the creek. The impact assessment and mitigation plans are subject to approval by the Ministry of Environment. Development Permit Area XX. -3- The site is within Development Permit Area XX which was created based on an environmental report prepared by Gartner Lee Associates. This report has identified that the majority of this site has moderate sensitivity. The primary concerns relate to slope stability, site drainage and treatment of stormwater. Schedule "A" and "H" The site will be included into Development Permit Area XXI as a condition of zoning to ensure the form and character of the development site at the building permit stage. It will also require review by the Advisory Design Panel prior to Public Hearing and issuance of a Development Permit. Schedule "C" The 116 Ave. alignment is shown as a major corridor connecting Cottonwood Drive through to 236" Street. The property required to achieve this alignment is part of the development application. It has been recognized that this right of way will require a bridge crossing of the ravine. The route will connect this neighbourhood with 236 Street. The topography along this alignment is severe and the soils conditions difficult. The cost for construction of the link will be relatively high and the benefits accrue to a large area. It is identified as a Development Cost Charges item and will be constructed at a later date when funds and demand warrant. It will be the developers responsibility to dedicate and construct the portion east of Cottonwood Drive to the future creek crossing as part of this development proposal. Staff are currently reviewing the feasibility of achieving the dedication through to 236 street as a condition of this rezoning application and have been reviewing various alternatives. This must be resolved prior to this application proceeding to a Public Hearing. (ii) Neighbourhood Context: To the west of the site is a single family residential neighbourhood which developed under the RS-lb zone. The lots are double fronting with the rear yards backing onto Cottonwood Drive. This arrangement reflected the location of the provincial route planned for the District. To the south is the District's old landfill site which is currently undergoing reclamation to enable it to be used for a future park site. A portion of this land will be required for the 116 Avenue right of way and it will be the responsibility of the developer to negotiate the acquisition of this right of way with the municipality. In a report prepared for Council in May 1993, it was identified that a trail network be provided for the Cottonwood area which would not only provide for recreational opportunities but will also provide an alternative to vehicular traffic. The trail network is to provide good access between neighbourhoods and relatively direct access to destination points such as schools, commercial facilities and parks. It also is R. W. Robertson, MCIP, AICP Chief Administrative Officer GPIbjc Manager: Public Works and Development Services recognized that the development of a trail system should be provided at the onset of residential development to assist in establishing the pedestrian emphasis in neighbourhood design. Recognizing that a link between 236 Street and Cottonwood Drive would address the concerns of Council, it is recommended that a pathway be provided which would link the eastern end of 116 Ave. to 236 Street. According to Council policy, it will be necessary for the applicant to host a Public Information Meeting prior to Public Hearing. (iii) Servicing Concerns The Engineering Department has advised that all the services re4uired to support the development proposal do not exist to the site. It will be necessary to enter into a Rezoning Development Agreement and post the required security to do the works prior to final consideration of the zone amending bylaw. Some of these works are road widening and improvements as required by the Subdivision and Development Servicing Bylaw. Other issues of concern relate to geotechnical considerations with regards to building setbacks from the ravine and the suitability of the site to support the intended use. VI CONCLUSION: The land use is in compliance with the Official Community Plan. It is recommended that the:: application be forwarded to Public Hearing.

This project is the fourth component of the "downtown strategy". The first three are the Downtown Eastern Sector Program, the Core Redevelopment project, and the Infrastructure Upgrade work. An architect will be hired to work with Council, staff and the public. The elements to be considered include building mass, siting, architectural elements, weather protection, access, road and sidewalk design, etc. The project has resulted from the Downtown Action Plan recommendations which envisioned a public realm design review program and a Development Permit Area for the downtown area, as well as an illustrated guide. Deliverables : The results of the work will be a report and design themes and guidelines, as well as amendments to the OCP for a Development Permit Area designation to ensure the Haney Regional Town Centre remains a strong, vigorous contributor to the local economy. The Haney Regional Town Centre is recognized in the GVRD Liveable Regional Strategic Plan as a regional town centre, and requires enhancements to ensure its evolution contributes to a strong community core. This project may be eligible for partial funding from the Neighbourhood Enhancement Program. Environmental Education - The purpose of this project is to provide funds for the development of information brochures for the public and to undertake a lecture series on topics and issues germane to an urbanizing community on the periphery of a metropolis in the Georgia Basin. This project is consistent with Provincial Growth Strategies Act and GVRD Liveable Region Strategic Plan directions. Deliverables: Material to be generated will include videos, joint publications with senior government ministries on "best management practices" in the Maple Ridge context, on policies and, procedures dealing with environmental matters, on moving towards "sustainable" urban development, and to provide a stipend to lecturers on relevant topics. It is expected this project may be eligible for Planning Grant funding. Farm Bylaw And DPA For The Protection Of Farming - The purpose of this project is to implement the recommendations from the Rural Plan recently completed, particularly dealing with regulations to limit the degree of "interface" land use conflicts along the urban/rural edge. This project is consistent with Provincial Ministry of Agriculture interests in the right- to-farm arena. Deliverables : This project will see the following bylaw amendments: Sect3 .doc 6 -- . 22-04-99 • Zoning Bylaw amendments for the rural and agricultural zones to accommodate Farm Bylaw language to protect the ability of farmers to undertake business while attempting to minimize the negative impacts of farming; and • Official Community Plan amendments to accommodate Development Permit Area designations along the urban/rural interface. Industrial Lands Strategy - The purpose of this project is to review industrial land consumption trends. and to analyse Maple Ridges supply. It will also result in a policy review to determine improvements to the approach to industrial and economic development in the Municipality to ensure the right lands are available in the right locations for the future. Deliverables: The project will result in changes to the regulations of the Zoning Bylaw and the OCP to ensure the zones are responsive to business needs and that the available servicing infrastructure is suitable for the type of industrial development envisioned. Employment Monitoring - The purpose of this project is to update the business inventory in the Municipality and to undertake an employment survey at the same time. The project will see a review of business licences in the Municipality, and field work in establishing how much floor space is occupied by a business. This database will then be supplemented with additional field work to determine the employment for each business. A database and procedures will be set-up to update this data annually at the business licence renewal stage. Deliverables: The project will set up a monitoring system to track changes in employment over time based upon changes in the business sector and population. This will allow a measurement of success in meeting the GVRD Liveable Region Strategic Plan expectation of improving the jobs-labour force balance in moving towards a more "complete" community. The project will result in a report analysing the direction in business trends by SIC code, floor space by business type, and the amount of employment by business type. Some comparisons can be made with previous years where the data is available. Otherwise, this project will set the standards and collect data that can be used to establish time series trends to analyse in future years. The project will also result in a system or procedure to be followed during business licence renewal to automatically collect the necessary data to keep the system current. Watercourse Classification - The purpose of this project is to establish a watercourse classification system and to apply the system to the extensive watercourses in the community. The project is a multi- phased approach: Phase 1(1999) Urban Area: Fill in information gaps identified in Scott Resources Report (1998 USHP). Coordination of critical salmonid populations and habitat assessments. Phase 2 Urban Area Classification (99100) Phase 3 Rural Area Inventory Collection (00/01) Phase 4 Rural Area Classfication (01) The newly proposed Fish Protection Act challenges local government to be proactive. The need for municipalities to identify fish and wildlife sensitive zones associated with streams and riparian ecosystems was considered imperative. It was suggested by the province that in some cases riparian setbacks of 30 to 50m. could be required for the preservation of watercourse integrity. It is anticipated that the final Directive establishing setbacks provincially will be forthcoming. In anticipation of the need for a comprehensive stream inventory and Council's interest in fish sensitive watercourses, a classification exercise will be undertaken. Maple Ridge is recognized as having some of the most critical Sect3.doc 7 22-04-99 watercourses in the Lower Mainland, and in fact, have two watercourses designated for protection under the Fish Protection Act (ie - Whonriock Creek, Kanaka Creek). To date Maple Ridge has no comprehensive inventory information on fish and wildlife habitat due to the prohibitive costs associated with the field work required for projects of this magnitude. Subsequently, watercourse classification would require a phased approach, with annual commitments to fill information gaps through data collection and ground-truthing programs. For this reason Maple Ridge will commit to producing a Watercourse Classification system and apply the selected system, as well as fill data gaps that have been identified. More complete fish andlor wildlife habitat information may be overlain in the future as information is obtained, utilizing GIS. Instream habitat potential, (spawning, rearing, over- wintering, etc.) will be identified in limited form for this project. In-house departmental and external organization benefits from classification will include the following: • The Engineering and Public Works Departments will utilize the scheme with respect to application submissions for in-stream project referrals to MoELP and DFO, as well as master drainage planning. • The Planning Department: will apply this classification tool to development applications as necessary, and in planning for community growth (identifying riparian/stream protection areas within development). The classification map may be overlain in the future with fish and wildlife habitat, greenways, land use concepts and ESA's. • The Stream Classification map will play a central role in the future development of a comprehensive bio-physical inventory and ESA study for the community. • The development and/or real estate community may find the classification useful in identifying properties with sensitive zone consideration. • Classification will reduce the time involved in the permit application process for both the fisheries agencies and the Municipality with the development and signing of an associated Memorandum of Understanding with MoELP and DFO where applicable. Deliverables: Phase 1 and 2 of the project will result in the establishment and application of a classification system that meets the needs of identif'ing critical stream features and wildlife habitat values that need to be recognized if impacts on hydrology and stream productivity from adjacent land use activity are to be minimized or managed. The first two phases will result in a report and a map of stream classification for the urban area. The final stream classification map will be considered for replacement of the current watercourse inventory map that forms Schedule E to the Official Community Plan.

Durksen DATE: April 26, 1999 and Members of Council FILE NO: FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: C/W SUBJECT: Bridge Crossing SUMMARY: Council have requested a staff report on the status and implications of a bridge crossing over the Fraser River. This report outlines a number of strategic issues in relation to a future bridge crossing connecting Maple Ridge with Langley. RECOMMENDATION: THAT the staff report dated April 26, 1999 be received for information. BACKGROUND: At its meeting of February 23, 1999, Council carried the following motion: That staff be directed to put together a report that considers a bridge crossing at the Fraser River that: Considers the importance of this type of crossing as a link within the regional transportation system; Considers the impact of this type of crossing on the port Mann Bridge both now and in the future; Considers the Fraser River crossing from a cost/benefit analysis perspective of importance to everyone in the Greater Vancouver area; Considers the crossing from the perspective of the public transit system; and if a crossing occurs in the Albion area, spec/ically considers a public transit connection to a new West Coast Express station. Attached for Council's information are Terms of Reference for a Fraser River Crossing Planning and Evaluation Study prepared by the Ministry of Transportation and Highways and recently awarded to Dillon Consulting Limited. The scope of the study is: 0 • . . to undertake a planning and evaluation study to determine the best location for a crossing of the Fraser River between Highway 7 and the Trans-Canada Highway in the North Fraser and South Fraser Areas. The consultant will evaluate each crossing location in a number of accounts: financial, customer service, environmental, social, and economic development... The consultants have been directed to evaluate three "high level" crossings in the following corridors: Barnston; 200' Street; and Cottonwood. In addition, the study is to review the feasibility and desirability of a low level crossing option. It is understood the low level crossing is generally considered to be in the Albion / 240" Street area. Results of the study are expected by June. The provincial interest in a bridge structure is largely a function of providing a connection between two provincial highways - Highway 1 and Highway 7. A new Fraser River crossing would help alleviate a very congested Cape Horn interchange and Port Mann Bridge, both provincial facilities. As such, a new bridge would have benefits far beyond the immediate and neighbouring communities it would directly connect. In the Greater Vancouver context, the Greater Vancouver Transportation Authority (GVTA) has assumed responsibility for the Albion Ferry with an annual operating budget of $3 - $4 million, excluding capital replacement costs. Road connections from the ferry to Highways 1 and 7 are part of the GVTA Major Road Network (MRN). Inclusion of the Albion Ferry service and connector roads into the GVTA system reflects the regional importance of a north/south connection in the easterly part of the Greater Vancouver Region that has a combined population (Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge, Langley Township, and Langley City) exceeding 200,000. While the Albion Ferry is a welcome and necessary service, it can only be considered an interim measure until a bridge crossing is provided. In addition, the ferries are nearing the end of their life expectancy, therefore, replacement/retrofitting costs are also a factor. As such, the replacement of the ferry service with a bridge crossing is not only a needed transportation improvement but, may also be rationalized on financial grounds as well. The GVTA has a strong mandate to deliver an effective and efficient public transportation system. A new bridge would provide much greater accessibility to the West Coast Express for residents on the south side of the Fraser River, via bus or automobile. This would further reinforce the viability of a new Albion station and reduce the volume of commuter traffic using Highway 1. The Municipal interests regarding a bridge crossing would seem to also serve regional interests. In the Maple Ridge context, limited accessibility has retarded the industrial and commercial tax base. A new bridge would provide greater accessibility and should contribute to growth in -2- employment opportunities in the District. This, in turn, will lessen the reliance on commuting to and through other communities. A new bridge would also provide greater accessibility to regional town centres on both sides of the Fraser River. A final comment is warranted on the timing of the bridge. The need for a bridge has been recognized for many years and a previous provincial government initiative resulted in detailed planning and property acquisitions in support of a bridge at Cottonwood. The District of Maple Ridge has recently prepared a draft Transportation Master Plan which essentially indicates that current traffic volumes justify a bridge at this time. CONCLUSION: It is recognized in an era of substantial fiscal constraints, sound provincial, regional, as well as municipal reasons must exist to justify the expenditure to construct and operate a new bridge in the lower mainland. As demonstrated in this report, a new bridge crossing in the Maple Ridge area has substantial regional benefits and will improve the flow of people and goods on both regional as well as provincial facilities, the most noticeable being the Port Mann Bridge/Cape Horn Interchange. While a bridge crossing is widely recognized as a long term goal, there are immediate benefits to the bridge crossing and the justification for such a facility exists today. In addition to much needed relief at the Port Mann, the new bridge will provide quick access to the West Coast Express for Langley residents, connect the Maple Ridge and Langley Regional Town Centres and provide improved mobility for the flow of goods. If the lower mainland is, in fact, going to be a livable and economically viable area, strategic investments in such facilities are going to have to be made in the shorter rather than longer term. Through a determined and cooperative effort of the provincial, regional and municipal levels, a new bridge crossing can become a reality. NJ 3*k.- I Y A / j' R. W.

Fraser River CrDssIng TERMS OF REFERENCE ____ Planning & Evaluation Study £ Wqmwws INTRODUCTION The Fraser River Crossing I. a proposed transportation corridor running across the Fraser River in the north-south direction to provide mobikty between the North Fraser communities (Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge. Mission) with the South Fraser communitIes (Delta, Surrey, Langley, Fraser Valley Regional Di strict). It is intended to replace the existing circuitous routing via Pitt River Brldg•, Maryhill Bypass, Cape Horn Iriterchang., and Foil Mann Sndge, as well as replace the existing Albion Ferry. SCOPE The project assignment is to undertake a planning and evaluation study to determine th* best location for a crossing of the Fraser River between Highway 7 and the Trans Canada Highway in the North Fraser and South Fraser areas. The Consultant will svaluats each crossing location in a number of accounts; financial, customer service, environmental, social and economic development From the multiple account evaluation (MAE). the Consultant will recommend the optimal crossing location. There has been three high level crossing optione considered by the Province. The Consultant will identify which high level crossing option has the highest benefit and lowest impact. in addition, the Province would Ilk, to review the feasibility and desirability of a low level aousing option. The Consultant will identify If there are benefits in constructing a low level crossing. Previous studies conducted hays recommended the Fraser Crossing to be implemented by horizon year 2021 or beyond, Ibliowing twinning of the Port Mann Bridge. The Consultant will review both current and previous studies on recommended network Improvements. The Consultant will provid, timing and staging plans of when the recommended crossing option(s) should be Implem.nted.

This study is related to other planning studies underway or to be undertaken such as: • South Fraser Penmeter Road - underway • Cape Horn/Port Mann Network Study- underway • New Westminster Comdors (HIghway 91 Extension/Tree Island Cros1ng, Stormont- McBtide, North Fraser Perimeter Road) . underway • HIghway 10- to be undertaken 5.2 PrevIous Crossing Option. The most prom inentiy diecuasad location for a north-south oonnectlon is the Cottonwood Corridor, located it approximately Kanaka Creek. The Provtncs purchased properea in the vicinity of the Cottonwood CorrIdor/Highway 7 interchange to protect right-of-way. However, previous efforts to protect the right-of-way were dons pnor to conducting a detailed piarirung and ev.Iu.tion study due to dev.lopm.nt pressures at the time. A second crossing option, Bamston Crossing, was proposed as a result of work on the Trans Cariade Highway component of the Lower Mainland Highway System Report (LMHSR) In 1995. 1 he results of the TCH compon.nt of the LMHSR indicated that the TCH is suMclent to serve the east-west primary level travel demand for the long-term. Mother prknary level route in the east-west direction (i.e. North Fraser Freeway) Is not nesded. fldy racommended the Barriston Crossing as the oref rstcrcesing of the Fraser River from .ri.iijj1 WwAztvo.- ThLe recommendation supported Initiatives from the LRSP consl*tint with GVRD long-term 9oaIs. A general corridor his been Identified but no prefiminary design has been done to refine the alignment. (1- A third location lining up with 200th Street In the Township of Langley, the 2001 Street Crossing, " was proposed as an altsmetive to the 8amstoru Crossing location, due to pot.ntiol impact of C''\ Barnston Crosalrig on .gr1ltur& fend. This option was determhed cosiiy because It required a wide crossing of the Frasr River therefore it was nut investigated In detail. The fourth location Is replacing the Atbion Ferry system with a crossing. The existing terries have been in saltwater and fteelI water fur a total of 25 years (Ufe..xp.ctancy of the fentis 1,25 years In saltwater) and operating costs are $3 million annually. No pravloue work has ben conducted on this crossing; howevar,tho Consultant should assess the feeslbBy and desirability of. crossing itthls location. As the Ufo...xpectancy Of the Albiun Ferry has been a concern, the Albion Crossing has been dlswss.d as a law level crossing (is. may impact marine movement) to be implemented perhaps In the short term to replace the Albion Feny, P1*.u,l,q $.qIlo, Some 0115,is •'q FEB-24-1999 10:33 604 2?0 3644 P.'12 Freasr River Cia.ing .

Durksen DATE: April 16,1999 and Members of Council FILE NO: FROM: ChiefAdministrative Officer ATTN: jouneif C 014) SUBJECT: Red Light Intersection Cameras EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The District of Maple Ridge has the opportunity to enter into a partnership with the Integrated Traffic Camera Unit (ITCU) to promote safety in our community, utilizing a combination of public awareness and technology. Statistics indicate that one in five collisions in British Columbia occur at signalized intersections, and those involving red-light runners are often the worst. The emotional and financial burden to the community is well publicized. Both the BC Association of Chiefs of Police and the Municipal Police Chiefs Association have unanimously endorsed red light safety cameras. The cost involved in developing the program, some 15 million dollars will be provided by the Province of British Columbia. The municipalities will incur no budgetary expenses. Enforcement of traffic light violations in the past, through conventional means has proven to be a difficult practice, involving a hazard to all parties involved. Our community will likely receive either four or five sites with one operational camera rotated amongst locations on a weekly basis. The remaining poles will house "dummy" cameras that flash and collect only data, to support the program evaluation. RECOMMENDATION: That the District of Maple Ridge enter into an agreement with the Integrated Traffic Camera Unit and approve the installation of intersection safety cameras within our communities, on the understanding that: No costs will be incurred by the District of Maple Ridge. Site selection and camera positioning will be through consultation with the Ridge- Meadows R.C.M.P. and the Maple Ridge Engineering Department. The following intersections are being proposed by the Integrated Traffic Camera Unit: oc . 0#3 . C) I RECOMMENDATION (Contd.) Maple Ridge: Hwy #7 and Dewdney Trunk Road Hwy #7 and 207th Street Hwy # 7 and 203rd Street Hwy #7 and Laity Street Hwy #7 and 224th Street 4. That the Municipal Clerk be instructed to write to the Attorney General's Office, concerning the issue of revenue sharing, but these negotiations should not impede the timely implementation of this initiative. BACKGROUND: The Integrated Traffic Camera Unit commissioned the Hamilton Association to identify high collision intersections in the communities of Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows. Their findings have been identified in the recommendation portion of this report and include: Hwy #7 and Harris Road The Ridge-Meadows Traffic Section will recommend the intersection of Harris Road and Lougheed Highway, be included in the process, as it has been recognized as the 14th worst intersection in the province for crash locations. Selection of site locations and camera positioning will be through consultation with the Ridge- Meadows Traffic Section. This will involve further review of accident statistics by our detachment to determine direction of travel of the offending drivers. Dewdney Trunk Road will be considered for possible site selections to broaden the field of apprehension. Cst. Keith Wilson of the Integrated Traffic Camera Unit presented Council with an overview of the program on the 15th March 1999. He provided a well informed informational package that was well received by Council in general. This is an important program for the communities of Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows that will greatly impact on public safety, at no additional costs. It will in fact add extra policing in needed areas without increasing staff. Regards, Robert W. Robertson Paul Gill, Cplan'itington A.I.C.P., M.C.I.P. Dir., Corp.

Mr. Prest then gave a brief history of the Society. Some of the Directors of the Society were also in attendance and they spoke on the events that they participated in during 1998, what 1 the Society's goals were and what they planned to offer to the community in the form of promoting events and festivals. They also mentioned that a directory of entertainers is being compiled which will be of great benefit to all community organizations. Another thing the Society is working on is the accumulation of equipment, such as barricades, that can be used in both communities during special events, however, storage of items like this is a problem. Mr. Prest added that the Society will be seeking feedback from the community to identify common needs and is looking forward to working under the fee for service agreement.

Mr. Prest advised that the Board was elected by the membership during their annual general meeting which was held in November. 5. Decision Items Recognition Policy MOVED by Councillor King, SECONDED by Councillor Stewart That the Recognition Policy for Retiring Parks and Leisure Services Commission and Citizens' Advisory Committee Members attached to the General Manager: Community Development, Parks and Recreation Services' March 4, 1999 memorandum on this subject be endorsed. MOTION CARRIED Correspondence from Whonnock Community Association re: Future Whonnock Neighbourhood Park MOVED by Councillor O'Connell, SECONDED by Councillor King That a recommendation be forwarded to Maple Ridge Council that a decision on whether or not to incorporate the Whonnock Neighbourhood Park adjacent to the new Whonnock Elementary School in the Municipality's long term capital program be deferred pending completion of a review of the overall park system in the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Plan to be undertaken later this year. Mr. Murray advised that the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Plan will be carried out this year and that it may be prudent to wait until the Plan is complete and review this issue at that time. Councillor Stewart asked about the status of Selvey Park. Mr. Murray replied that previous direction from the Commission and Maple Ridge Council was that a consultation process be undertaken with Whonnock residents to obtain their feedback and this will be happening. He added that deferment on a decision will not impede the development at the schoollpark site. MOTION CARRIED PA 2001 or 2002 B.C. Seniors Games MOVED by Councillor O'Connell, SECONDED by Councillor King That the invitation to bid to host the 2001 or 2002 BC Seniors' Games be forwarded to staff for a report on this subject to be presented at the May meetings of the Parks and Leisure Services Citizens' Advisory Committee and Commission. Councillor Stewart asked if the seniors had been consulted on this topic. Mr. Murray replied that Ms. Sue Wheeler, East Area Manager, is presently contacting the seniors. He noted that the timing of this bid is difficult because of the possible major construction in both municipalities but that momentum for 2003 or later could be established by reviewing the opportunity to bid for 200 1/2002. Mr. Murray advised that with the Seniors' Games, there is no need for accommodation or transportation and there are only two or three meals required for the group so hosting the Games in the Ridge Meadows area is less onerous than hosting the BC Summer Games and would certainly be of a large economic benefit to the business community. He added that once the seniors had been consulted, a recommendation would be brought back to both the Citizens' Advisory Committee and Commission. Councillor King agreed that it was desirable to show the communities in their best possible light which may not be possible in the next year or two. Another concern she voiced was the amount of volunteer time that would be required from Parks and Leisure Services staff for an event of this magnitude. Mr. Murray advised that this would need to be addressed with staff. Councillor King asked if the Commission could make application to host the Games rather than have the application come from both municipalities. Mr. Murray replied that as a monetary commitment is tied to the application, it must come from both councils. Councillor King asked what the cost would be to the municipalities. Mr. Murray replied that copies of budgets from other municipalities who have hosted the seniors' games were being gathered to give an indication of this dollar value and that this information will be reported once it is available. MOTION CARRIED Request from Minor Baseball Association re: Fence Signage at Harris Road Park MOVED by Councillor O'Connell, SECONDED by Trustee Trerise That the Parks and Leisure Services Commission endorse the request of the Ridge Meadows Minor Baseball Association to mount advertising signage on the outfield fence on the main baseball diamond at Harris Road Park be approved, noting that the approval is for a one-year period, that the Association agrees to take full responsibility for routine safety checks and maintenance of the advertising boards, that all advertising is to be pre-approved by the Director of Parks and Facilities, and that the Commission reserves the right to reject any advertisement which in its unilateral opinion is not felt to be appropriate. 3 Mr. Murray noted that there is a policy in place that indicates a one-year maximum duration for advertising to be in place. With this the case, he questioned the need to bring forward the annual request, noting that it may be possible to deal with it at a staff level only. The commission concurred. MOTION CARRIED 6. Information Items MOVED by Councillor O'Cormell, SECONDED by Councillor King That Information Items (a) - (d) be received for information. CARRIED Pitt Meadows Family Recreation Centre Press Release and Question and Answer Sheet - An updated question and answer sheet was distributed to the Commission members. In response to a question, Mr. Murray noted that construction of a Centre in Pitt Meadows had been supported by previous resolution of Maple Ridge Council. A letter to that effect from Mayor Durksen was included in grant applications. With the construction of the Centre, the facility base for the Commission will be increased. He added that the community policing office would be constructed by Pitt Meadows. Councillor O'Connell said that a saving would result as rent is now paid for the present community policing office and this rental would be eliminated. Correspondence from Maple Ridge Archery Club re: Permanent Facility for Archery - Mr. Murray advised that due to safety concerns, the archery club could not be accommodated at the Albion Sports Complex, adding that Mr. Davies is looking for a site that will ensure safety and assure the club of a more permanent location. Trustee Trerise asked if all areas at the Fairgrounds were in use. Mr. Murray replied that with the construction of Planet Ice and the regular users of the Fairground's commercial buildings, this site is not seen to be appropriate. In the early planning stages for the Albion Sports Complex, it was envisioned that archery be included, however, the area residents expressed safety concerns and inclusion of archery on the site was ultimately reconsidered. Other possible locations were discussed but it was decided to turn the matter over to Mr. Davies for further study. Parks and Leisure Services 1998 Fourth Quarter Statistical RepOrt - Mr. Murray advised that an annual report for 1998 will be coming forward shortly. He added that 1998 was the first year that statistics could be reported as they are now being collected in a consistent manner. Councillor MacLean asked if it would be possible to get a comparison of the total number of hours a facility could be booked versus the number of hours it is actually booked. Mr. Murray replied that with fields, there is more time booked than time used because of rain-outs and the need to restrict the use of the field during the non-growing season so this comparison may be difficult to obtain. (Note: There are some facilities where use is concentrated during prime time when participants are available. Staff will attempt to provide the requested information). 4 16 (d) Proposal from Breakaway Soccer Academy - Mr. Murray said that this submission had also been discussed at the Citizens' Advisory Committee meeting and Ms. Brenda Ingram, the liaison for the field users, said that she would be speaking to the group. As yet, no formal request has been made for field bookings. Commission Reports - Trustee Dueck thanked Mr. Murray for hosting the recent "welcome/farewell" dinner at his home. Staff Liaison Reports Mr. Murray - calls were received in the department regarding the closure of soccer fields on the weekend. There was a tournament at the Albion Sports Complex for the mini soccer league where the fields were cut in half to accommodate the lower age category and a very large number of players. Although these players did not cause any damage to the fields, the number of spectators standing on the sidelines was very large and caused the fields to become very muddy. One field in this location was closed as well as Merkley and the Pitt Meadows Athletic Park. Some recent tournament participants were concerned that the department had closed additional fields which caused the tournament to be reduced in sice. This was not the case and Commission members should be aware of the situation in the event that theyreceive complaints. Staff and the Minor Soccer Club are clear on the situation but others may not be. The regular meeting adjourned at 6:10 p.m. 5 CORPORATION OF THE DISTRICT OF MAPLE RIDGE TO: His Worship Mayor C.

This was accomplished by a review and restructuring of staff requirements pre and post start-up plus negotiation of more appropriate dollar value for equipment on a hard requirement basis. The search is on for a Director of Administration and Finance. This position will be filling a significant staff vacancy and when filled will permit policies and procedures to be promulgated in a more timely fashion. Phase 0 radio system turn up is turning into a remarkable success story. A one point a significant lobby was launched against E-Comm's vendor of choice. Horror stories were brought forward from across North America suggesting that a poor selection had been made by E-Comm. It is emerging that functionality and coverage footprint of the system it truly remarkable. This is made possible by our technical and management staff clearing many obstacles securing sites. However, the last hold out, UBC has now acceded to the need and the tower will be functional at Acadia Camp well before the start-up. Administration of the GVRD 9-1 -1 continues to be an issue. The Vancouver Police Department is currently under contract to provide 9-1 -1 call taking service to the GYRD. This contract expires 31 December 1999. As the Vancouver Police Department call taking will be moving to E- Comm June 8, the function will transfer to E-Comm at that time. However, with the move to E-Comm, BC Tel will be introducing new technology which will support fragmented 9-1 -1 solutions. In other words municipalities could conceivably operate independent 9-1 -1 call taking operations. Naturally, there are costs and benefits to both distributed and centralized solutions. E-Comm and the current service providers at the GYRD see a centralized approach as having the strongest business case support. The Regional Administrative Advisor Committee (RACC) of the GYRD has established a working Committee to define the options and report back to RAAC with their findings for consideration. Final report to be available to RAAC by 8 June 1999. General interest in E-Comm continues to grow. This is evident by the large number of requests being received for tours. On April 23 the Attorney General received a briefing regarding the status of E-Comm's police RMS solution, PRIME BC. Records management will require a concerted effort to resolve as the many different architectures are less than compatible. It is apparent, however, that these solutions are attainable and that a centralized data base for all component police detach ment/depa rtments party to the system and service users will be available. This will be tremendous boon for investigative purposes and permit much more timely solutions to crimes. The Attorney General indicated that he was in total agreement with the direction being taken by PRIME BC and was interested in assisting in any way he could. The Attorney General will in fact be providing his support by way of a letter to E-Comm. 3 • Ruskin Youth Council (Youth Initiated Recreation Outreach Program) - initiated in Partnership with the Ruskin Hall Community Association • Introduction of partnership programming and introduction of Ruskin Hall Community • Association information page in the Ridge Meadows Parks and Leisure Services Winter/Spring brochure Projects in Progress • Summer Program Brochure • Joint Agreement with School District #42 • Picket Fence Project • Working with Arts Council, School District, and Yennadon School on the mounting of the Picket Fence tiles • presentation to Yennadon School and Yennadon Neighbourhood as while as the design of a Fall Neighbourhood Workshop series • Preparation for a presentation to a joint meeting of Commission, School Board, Maple Ridge Council, and Pitt Meadows Council • Millennium 2000 - BC - grant submissions for: • Capital - Youth Centre • Program - Girls in Action/Women in Action • Master Plan • Partnership with Ministry of Children and Families for Integrated Daycamps • Senior's Week • BC Seniors Games - meeting with community to discuss feasibility of submission to host either the 200 1/2002 games • Mountain Festival • Volunteer Appreciation Event for Parks and Leisure Services Volunteers • Volunteer Policy Development • Pitt Meadows Recreation Centre - Referendum • Canada Day in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows - Preparation • Pitt Meadow Day Preparation • Blues and Jazz Festival Preparation • Youth Fest Preparation • Ruskin Youth Council - first event (Youth Dance) • Harry Hooge Park Design • Fairview Park Construction • Fairview Park caretaker selection • Jim Hadgkiss memorial gazebo design • Cross's cabins caretaker residence renovations • City Hall security system upgrade project • Whonnock Lake Beaver Dam Project • Adopt a Park (litter program) • Creekside Manor Community Garden Project • Table Top Exercise Emergency Program • Flood Preparation 99 'tem • co Par.b ;)esign • -rnnock Park/School Design Open House and Survey • (c' Courtyard security issues • Bud-out Core area partnership • Pitt Meadows Community Garden expansion • HRDC Youth Grants received • Pitt Meadows Youth Fest planning • PittMeadows Recreation Centre detailed design • Arena dry floor users relocated to Planet Ice • Home Show preparation • Graduation preparation • 10 Hour shifts for maintenance staff • Y2K testing • ESS flood preparation • Development of new Community Garden • Business Planning • Core Development & Transition Planning V t 4' How to get involved Contact a committee member and attend a committee meeting.

Traffic Concerns Graffiti CORPORATION OF THE DISTRICT OF MAPLE RIDGE TO: His Worship Mayor C. Durksen DATE: May 05, 1999 and Members of Council FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: Council SUBJECT: 1999 Adopted Budget and Tax Rates By- law, and Amending By-laws for Recycling Charges and Utility Regulations. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The 1999 Adopted Budget and associated Tax Rates By-law for the General Revenue Fund, Sanitary Sewer Fund, Waterworks Revenue Fund and Recycling Rates must be adopted by May 15,1999. The Tax Rates By-law incorporates a tax increase of 3.95% compared to the 1998 Budget. This increase represents a 2.95% budgetary increase to mitigate the loss of the Provincial Government Unconditional Grant and 1% for the Capital Works Reserves. The tax rates reflect a tax shift of Y2% from the Major and Light Industry Classes to the Residential Class. In addition, the Utility Class is being adjusted upwards to bring our rate more in line with the rate levied by other Municipalities in the Lower Mainland. The combined effect of this tax shift is a reduction of $52,870 to the Major Industry Class or 8.31%; after factoring in the 3.95% increase this Class will experiencea net reduction of 4.3 6%. For the Light Industry Class, the combined effect of this tax shift is reduction $114,455 or 15.6%; after factoring in the 3.95% increase this Class will experience a net reduction of 11.65%. Residential property owners will experience an increase of approximately. $4.00 as a result of this shift. The Utility Class as a group will pay an additional $92,700. There is a $14 user fee increase in the Waterworks Revenue Fund that will bring the rate to $143. The Specified Areas of Rothsay and Garabaldi will be levied $500; $143 as the user fee and $357 as their share of the capital cost of installing the infrastructure to deliver municipal water. The Metered Water rates are adjusted by 11% to reflect the increase to the flat rate and the number of volume driven rate groups is reduced from five to three. This latter change is to reflect a transition to one charge in 2000 and gradually eliminate the rate structure that reduced the rate on increased volumes consumed; in effect this encouraged consumption of water. There is no increase in the sewer flat rate; there is a rate adjustment for those properties that are charged by the relationship to metered water. The metered rate is adjusted due to the changes in the water rates. A Blue Box Collection service for apartments and other multi-family type of housing is being introduced; the. rate is $19.43; all other rates for recycling remain the same as 1998. The average home in the urban area will experIence an overall increase of approximately $36, whilst a home in the rural area will experience an overall increase of $22.

Durksen DATE: May 7, 1999 and Members of Council FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: Council SUBJECT: By-law to alter the date on which a penalty is charged on unpaid municipal taxes EXECUTIVE SUMJIARY: By changing the second penalty date from August 02 to September 03, 1999 we are able to improve customer service and efficiency. Our turn around time for sending out notices for taxes outstanding will improve by four months. Although the penalty revenue will decline, we expect a significant drop in customer complaints. This will improve our efficiency as staff can dedicate their effort to other services. Customer goodwill should also improve because taxpayers will be notified earlier about the status of their account and will save at least 5%. RECOMMENDATION: That the Maple Ridge Tax Penalty By-law #5814-1999 be read afirst and second time and that the Rules of Order be waived and the Maple Ridge Tax Penalty By-law #5814-1999 be read a third time.. BACKGROUTD: We currently apply a 5% penalty after July 02 and a second 5% penalty 30 days later. Notices of Outstanding Municipal Taxes are issued 'in. late autumn. Because of the short 30-day twn around between penalty dates, custOmers are often unable to respond quickly enough to avoid a second penalty. Often times the problem is caused by a third party, such as a financial institution that has accepted the payment, a homeowner grant claim improperly filed or a tax notice that went awry. This change will make the process more responsive to the customer, save staff time and earn goodwill. Submitted by: Yacob So'a, CGA Director ofFinance Robert W. Robertson, A.I.C.P., M.C.LP. R. A.

May 12, 1999 gmum—ipalDate Clerk 1999 Maple Ridge Budget Mr. Mayor: It is my privilege to introduce our 1999 Budget. This Council was faced with a significant challenge to produce a balanced budget for 1999, while we also maintain a balanced framework for next year. The provincial economy continues a downward spiral and the Provincial Government also is struggling with a growing deficit. The Provincial response has been to eliminate the Equalization Grant to Municipalities. British Columbia municipalities lost $40.8 million this year our share was 1.3 million. We are, however, eligible for a one time Transition Grant of $147,000 as well as a share of provincial Traffic Fine revenue in the amount of $205,000. Our net loss for 1999 from traditional Provincial sources is 923,000. In the time since this council assumed office, we have experienced on a gross basis a total loss of $2.2 million. In addition, the Province has also downloaded the responsibility for secondary highways and asked this Municipality to contribute to the costs of keeping the courthouse operational in Maple Ridge. Maple Ridge would have required a 12% tax increase to fully recover this revenue loss. For the past two budgets the Provincial cuts were absorbed by a tax increase, reducing service levels and not replacing staff departures by attrition and finally by reducing our capital program. The continuing reduction made it apparent that we could not continue to follow this practice. We must restore our capital program to previous levels in order to sustain our infrastructure and maintain the quality service levels. Significant operating changes have been necessary to achieve this outcome. This has been accomplished by elimination of some pEograms and direction to change the process methodology of others. Our operating budget is reduced by 3.2% as compared to 1998 for $34.2 million and contajns a tax increase of 3.95%. 2.95% of this budget increase is necessary to mitigate the loss of the Provincial Unconditional Grant and 1 % for our Capital Works Reserve Fund. Our water utility is increased $14.00 with an adjusted 11 % in metered rates. The average urban homeowner will experience an overall increase of $36.00 while rural homeowners will experience an overall increase of $22.00 Here are some of the key highlights: > Balanced Budget: General Revenue will generate a small surplus of $79,800. > Utility Funds Deficit is the result of capital expenditures and is provided by the Utility Funds Accumulated Surplus; this is part of the financial plan to fund 'major infrastructure expenditures on a graduated time basis. > Real growth is $134 M or 3.65% and adds $759,000 of new revenue. Capital Expenditures from General Taxation $2.234M > Tax Increase -2.95% for General Purpose -1.00% for Capital Works Reserve This will generate $852,000. > Tax Shift: -1/2% from Maj or & Light Industry Class to the Residential' Class; this shift will cost homeowners $4 - $5. This has been a long term Council policy and reflects our encouragement to promote retention and expansion of industry in Maple Ridge. -Utility Class adjusted upwards to be aligned with other Municipalities -Major Industry will experience a net 4.36 reduction of $27,600. -Light Industry will experience a net 11.65% reduction of $94,000. This is a good news story promoting Maple Ridge as a place to invest as property taxes for the two industrial classes continues to decline. > Water Utility Increase $14.00 -Meter Rate Adjustment of 11 % to reflect the flat rate increase. -Meter Rate Groups to be reduced from 5 - 3 which will gradually eliminate a rate structure that promotes more consumption of water because the rate declines. -By the year 2000 there will be only a single rate for metered water; thereafter, meter rates will continue to be gradually adjusted upward until 2004 when rates will achieve an equitable fairness among the user groups. >. Rothsay/Garabaldi Water Rates $500.00 This rate includes the $143.00 flat rate fee charged to all homes. The remaining $357.00 is the marginal share paid by the residents towards the capital costs of the infrastructure needed to deliver water to this area. For 1999 this fee will be prorated and billed separately. > Sewer Utility: No general rate increase; customers who are billed by metered water will have an adjustment due to the water rate changes. Although some apartments are on metered water, the sewer rate will remain on the per unit basis for 1999 as more study is necessary to determine the volume that is collected from this group and establishing an equitable rate. • . Recycling - First time collection service to apartment type housing; the rate is, $19.43; this will be prorated for 1999. Other Service rates are the same as 1998 • Collections for Other Levels of Government and their agencies: - GVTA; this is a new item on the 1999 tax bill and. replaces the levy for the fbrrner Transit Authority. To help fund the G'V..TA, the levy for the Regional hospital District is also eliminated; the average home will experience a $3 reduction. - Library; the levy will fall approximately $5 per household - School taxation will rise approximately $4 per household after the 'homeowner grant. Average Home: - Assessment has declined $3500 or 1.9% Urban tax bill $1,084; this is up $36 or 3.43% - Rural tax bill - $674; this is up $22 or 3.37% 5 • A great deal of effort has gone into the biidget and business planning. process. I would like to ..tkè this occasion to thank fellow Council members and staff for their effort and contribution, it has been a difficult challenge, however, . I am confident that we will over come the hurdles and provide our citizens with quality, cost effective service. I recommend that the fOurth reading be given to the 1999 Annual Budget and associated Tax Rates By-law, and Amending By-laws for Recycling and Utility Regulations. I also recommend fourth reading to the Penalty Additions By-law. This By-law extends the second penalty date by 30 days to September 3. This will grant taxpayers an extension of time before the second 5% penalty is added. I would also remind residents that in order to avoid line- ups, property taxes can be mailed orpaid at all major fmanciaL Proper completion of the homeowner grant is necessary or you will face a penalty for unpaid taxes. For flirther details you are encouraged to visit our Web Page. The 1998 Annual k'inanciai Statements and highlights of the budget will be up in the next few weeks. Councillor J. 0.

V2X 7E6 TELEPHONE (604) 463-3244 FAX (604) 463-3248 Maple Ridge Submission DELEGATION TO COUNCIL - May II, 1999 J\\'OR Ai) COUNCIL: I'm here to speak about the recent Supreme Court of Canada decision whereby the Court refused to hear our case and as you are all well aware, we have consented to shut down the manufacturing of concrete in our Albion gravel pit by May 29, 1999. TE ITEM #1 I know I'm only allowed 10 minutes and although this is totally insufficient to deal in any substantive way with the details of this issue, I will do my best. I will give a brief history, and then make three points. If there are any questions I will be pleased to answer them. ITEM #1 BRIEF HISTORY 1ST POINT RELOCATION SITE Apparently council believes that we have had plenty of time to make arrangements to move our ready-mix plant and we have not taken any action. THIS IS NOT TRUE. What I would like to point out is that we have investigated numerous sites, and at a substantial cost in legal fees, surveyor's reports and consultants. The primary properties are: Ken Stewart's uncle, Chic Stewart's property on Lougheed Highway, next to I.R. #5. We actually prepared a legal document. We both use the same law firm, Russell & DuMoulin, and had Russell & DuMoulin draft up an agreement. I spent many thousands of dollars for surveyors, leal fees, option agreements, etc.. Mr. Stewart decided on the advice of a very good realtor friend that the price was too low. In hindsight, it was too high, and it is still above market value. Chris White spoke to Chic yesterday. Mr. Stewart's only position is a clear cash sale at his original price. No deal was concluded. This information was shared with Mr. Robertson. We have had extensive negotiations on numerous properties in the P.V.I. area, namely Don Boyce, as well as Crown Lands, B.C.B.C. and others. We have chosen not to go into this area until the Webster's Corner residents will support gravel and ready-mix in the area. We don't need to be the target of community hostility. LATE ITEM #2 .J2 I C..' Page 2 We have been in contact with many local realtors, the latest being Brenda Jenkins regarding a piece of M-2 property in the Albion Industrial Park. Mr. Robertson and the Mayor met her on Friday to confirm whether or not we could move to her site in the M-2 zone. We have received Maple Ridge's written confirmation that this site would be suitable. ITEM #2 I have reached an option agreement in principal with Noble Custom Cut to purchase their land, buildings and assets. Again, we both use the same legal firm of Russell & DuMoulin, and an agreement is being executed as we speak. ITEM #3 To conclude Point 1, we have researched many possible sites. Clearly if we had succeeded with the Supreme Court of Canada, we would not be required to move. For Council to say we have done nothing is simply not true. However, we didn't get to the Supreme Court of Canada, and now we must implement an action plan to preserve our ready-mix operation in Maple Ridge, which brings us to my second point. NI) POINT WHERE CAN WE MOVE TO? WHAT ARE OUR PREFERRED AREAS? IN ORDER OF PREFERENCE: We would like to stay where we are until the gravel is exhausted, then move to a new gravel source. This would require Maple Ridge to extend the 30 day deadline. Relocate to the municipal pit and develop the pit properly - currently Municipal Pit, zoned M-2; and we could operate legally from this pit. Maple Ridge and Allards would need to enter into a detailed agreement to do this. We would be prepared to seriously do this option. Relocate gravel operations and ready-mix to P.V.I. once Webster's Corner issues are resolved. LATE ITEM #2 Move to river front at Dave Husby's Noble Custom Cut. Brenda Jenkins' 21 acres of M2 property, depending on feasibility. Move out of Maple Ridge to Pitt Meadows and/or Mission. We need help from Council in order to relocate our ready-mix plant, and at the same time, recognize that we need to secure gravel reserves to continue both our gravel business and our ready-mix plant. Could Council give us any help in this regard? Our customers need a locally owned and operated ready-mix plant in Maple Ridge. ITEM #4 - letter from Jayman Master Builders. Page 3 3RD POINT We have applied for a Temporary Industrial Use Permit ("T.I.U.P"). If Maple Ridge can authorize a T.I.U.P. we could keep our business running and find a new location for our plant, and at the same time save the jobs of our employees and continue to serve the community of Maple Ridge with the best quality concrete at the best price in a timely manner. CONCLUSION To conclude, on Nov.7,1995, the Board of Variance, after no less than 6 court hearings, ruled that our ready-mix plant could stay in our gravel pit. The municipality and its solicitors then went on to challenge the Board of Variance's jurisdiction to hear the case in the first place. This action started another round of legal proceedings. Judge Duncan Shaw agreed with Maple Ridge. We appealed to the Appeal Court of B.C.. It was not an easy decision. It was 2 for and 1 against. Chief Justice McEachern agreed with us that we should have a ready mix plant in a gravel pit. But in a split decision (2 to 1) we lost. We appealed to the Supreme Court of Canada to hear the case. The Supreme Court of Canada said no. That ends the matter legally. I'm now before you, the elected officials that run the community of Maple Ridge, to request that you extend the thirty day shut down order for a period of time that you feel is reasonable. This could be accomplished by granting us an extension or a T.I.U.P.. I would then relocate our ready-mix plant and wind up our Albion gravel pit. I have attached SCHEDULE 'A', which is a summary of what would be required to facilitate a relocation of our ready-mix plant. It is extremely expensive and time consuming to undertake a plant relocation. I do hope you can reach the same conclusion that the Board of Variance did, as well as Chief Justice McEachern, and help us relocate our ready-mix plant and grant Maple Ridge Ready-Mix a STAY OF EXECUTION.

It's time for the community to decide what they want. PLACE: Webster's Corners Elementary School DATE: Monday, May lIt, 1999 TIME: 8:00pm WEBSTER'S CORNERS COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION GRAVEL FACTS Policy 17 was implemented by Maple Ridge Council to afford protection to the residents of Webster's Corners by restricting the development of new gravel extraction operations and other industrial traffic until alternate access was provided. For the greater good of the community, the residents of Webster's Corners accepted the Fraser Regional Correctional Centre in exchange for a new Court House and Police Station. Following the acceptance of the correctional centre, the neighbourhood was peppered with a steady stream of proposals including: the relocation of the Westwood Racetrack (1989), construction of a landfill (1990), creation of a toxic waste dump, a shooting range (1993), a paintball operation (1994) and the list goes on. To date we have succeeded in protecting the rural nature of our area by joining together in opposition; we need to continue to do so. During this time the developmónt of Whispering Falls took place under the protection of Policy 17 and assurances from Maple Ridge Council that the adjacent Kirkpatrick gravel pit would soon close because it was a non- conforming use of the land. When the Ministry of the Attorney General approached the District of Maple Ridge to locate a Youth Correctional Facility on Crown Land at the north end of 2561 street, the District told the Ministry that it had to get the Webster's Corners community on side or the project was not a go. Webster's Corners agreed to the correctional facility in 1993. The District was theil granted 160 acres of Crown Land rich in gravel deposits in exchange for agreeing that it "would not use the acreage provided for a landfill site or for gravel extraction until after an alternate access route had been constructed". The municipality also agreed to construct a sidewalk on 2561h Street. During these discussions the Webster's Corners Community Associationhad requested a restrictive covenant as a guarantee. "No covenant was subsequently registered upon advice from the Municipal Planner, with which the Association agreed, that one was not required because Policy 17 of the Community Plan already protected the neighbourhood from such an occurrence." Policy 17 was amended in the 1996 Official Community Plan. In 1997 the District announced it would pass a by-law to open a new gravel pit. The District closed the gravel pit off 240th street in order to open the area up to development. According to local gravel operators a significant amount of gravel was left in the ground. The District then claimed that there were insufficient gravel resources available for construction and pursued the opening of a Municipal pit on the restricted lands received from the Province. The District accused residents of Webster's Corner and Whispering Falls of selfishness because of their opposition to the gravel extraction prior to an alternate route being established. The Municipality denied the existence of the agreement made in good faith with the Attorney General's office and the Webster's Corners Community Association. The representative for the Miniztrj hcs providci a swrri sement supporting the existence of the agreement. As retaliation, the District has allowed a new pit to open contrary to existing zoning and openly contradicting its commitment to the residents of Webster's Corners. The District says that the "historic levels" of gravel extraction will be maintained. Who will tell Kirkpatrick Sand & Gravel to cut back? Our school population has doubled; our bus routes cut back and they now propose to run gravel trucks through our school zone and residential area. Our association is in the process of applying to the BC Supreme Court to get an injunction against the municipality to make them honour their commitment to the neighbourhood through the Association. This action is supported unanimously by your executive. WEBSTER'S CORNERS COMMUNITYASSOCIA TION HISTORY OF GRA VEL EXTRACTION & NOTIFIC4 TION OF MEETING AT WEBSTER'S CORNERS SCHOOL April 30, 1999 The following has been compiledfrom the information available to us as we publish. Please excuse any inaccuracies and we accept any corrections. The pattern is clear. The Bottom Line.......... Through a series of public hearings, including Whispering Falls, people who bought houses have been assured for years that the policy in the Community Plan would be maintained where everyone agreed that industrial traffic through rural areas is unacceptable. The Kirkpatrick Sand & Gravel were given the right to continue as a non-conforming use which has been promised to be an operation that is to be phased out. Don't say you weren't warnet'L......... What the community of Webster's Corners has been afraid of for 20 years is about to become a reality. On the other side of our rural residential community, we have industrial and mineral deposits. As the residents on Pipe Line Road in Coquitlam will testify, having industrial minerals trucked through your community in big numbers destroys the community way of life. The sources for gravel in the Fraser Valley have diminished rapidly. With a number of municipalities out of gravel, they are all looking for an alternative. The Coquitlam pit that devastated the residents on Pipe Line Road is scheduled to close. There are many engineering reports that establish in many areas north ofus (north 256th, north 264th, north 267th) contain a humongous amount of good quality industrial gravel. Whether any of us like it or not, a good percentage of the gravel needed to build highways, bridges and houses throughout the Fraser Valley will come from your backyard for the next 100 years. In addition there are commercial deposits of clay and dozens of other mining claims. The Kirkpatrick pit we have now has been an ideal, low level, family owned, good neighbour operation. For years, if a gravel truck operator was driving aggressively in our community, the Kirkpatricks would refuse to load that truck. Those who have been around long enough will remember times when the gravel truck traffic seemed unbearable. Those were peaks in Kirkpatrick's volume because of a contract they had for a large highway project or development. Commitment to Whispering Falls ............. For years when other zoning issues were raised in the community, everyone who built and bought their house was assured that the Kirkpatrick gravel pit was being phased out and there would be no new industrial hauling opening up this huge gravel resource until the east/west corridor (the highway to the north which was an alternate access) was built. For the mothers who remember weaving through numbers of parked gravel trucks and traffic to drop their kids off at school, let us clearly say, "You haven't seen anything yet!" Further in this newsletter you will find a more detailed account that will more clearly define the facts about the current gravel issue. We have learned from past experiences that if we band together, we can stop bad things. The landfill site, toxic waste dump, relocation of the Westwood Race track are things that we as a community banded together and said this is nuts. We were successful. This is probably the last opportunity you will have to stop the opening of new gravel pits. All we have ever asked for as a community and been promised in many ways, for many years is that the municipality find an alternate route first before opening new pits whose traffic would run through on our residential roads, schools, park zones and a corner at 256 1 and Dewdney that cannot be engineered safely. The municipality has told us, the Association, that if we are successful in stopping them from opening the 160 acres, they wi others to open and all they have to do is amend the by-law to remove historic levels from the by-law. The next time there is a building boom or road project, you can expect three gravel trucks per minute in each direction. ui iw' LY :ui/u NU:4 ITEM #2 FACSIMIL(E COVER SHEET HOMELIFE CLASSIC REALTY. 20842 Lougheed H4y.
