Discussion
Councillor Harris referred to the Development Agreements Committee Meeting
Minutes of December 3, 1999 approving a restrictive covenant/rezoning
development agreement on property at 22866 Dewdney Trunk Road owned by
Lordco Parts Ltd. He questioned if there is any commercial activity on the site at
present, noting that a portion of the site is currently zoned RS-1 (One Family
Residential).
The Director of Current Planning advised that there is no commercial activity on
the site at this time. The development agreement relates to a rezoning proposal
that will be coming forward to Council in the new year for consideration of a
Development Permit and final reading of a by-law to zone the site to CS-i
(Service Commercial) There is a split zoning on the site at this time.

Page 4
Discussion
Councillor Isaac questioned how this by-law compares to the previous Cemetery
By-law. The General Manager of Community Development, Parks and Recreation
Services advised that the primary difference is the introduction of a 5% fee
increase in the new by-law as has been the practice in the past. The new by-law
also proposes some amendments of a housekeeping nature.
Councillor King asked for an explanation of the Cemetery Care Fund. The
General Manager advised that those funds will be used to maintain the cemetery
in perpetuity after it has reached its capacity.
Councillor King noted that there are a number of references made to the date of
April 1, 1980 on page 7 of the by-law and questioned if they are correct.
The General Manager of Community Development, Parks and Recreation
Services explained that date refers to a number of items that were introduced at
that time to establish rules that would apply to certain sites that were utilized after
that date. Prior to that date there would have been other regulations in place.
Councillor Morse questioned if the District foresees an ongoing annual increase in
the fees.
The General Manager responded that a fee increase has been implemented on an
annual basis for a number of years. Maple Ridge is still in the mid-range for fees
for this type of facility. It is felt that smaller annual fee increases are more
appropriate than large increases every several years. He noted, however, that the
District will be undertaking a fairly thorough review of all its fees in the next year
which may result in a departure from past practices.
Councillor Isaac asked if the level of service will be increased with the increase in
fees. The General Manager of Community Development, Parks and Recreation
Services advised that there will basically be the same level of maintenance but
there has been an enhancement of the security due to vandalism. There is
additional fencing and work has been done on some of the historical headstones to
ensure that they are not damaged.
The motion CARRIED.

Discussion
Councillor King asked for further clarification of the vehicular access provision,
noting that it was deleted in favour of a walking and a bicycle path.
The Director of Current Planning displayed an overhead map of the site and the
related Cottonwood Guide Plan. He identified the developable portion of the site
which is east of Horseshoe Creek. He advised that a portion of 116 Avenue was
subject to a traffic consultants' report which has been presented to and approved
by Council. The report concluded that given that there is alternate access to the
area from other constructed streets, and that there are two fairly difficult creek
crossings, access should not be constructed as a full roadway but should be in the
form of a bicycle and walking path only.
Councillor Gordon asked for and received further clarification of the area that will
be the subject of a geotechnical report due to environmental concerns.

Discussion
Councillor Gordon noted that a concern was raised at the Public Hearing by the
adjacent property owner regarding urban development abutting her hobby farm.
Council subsequently placed a condition on the rezoning application that a fence
be constructed along the property line of the two properties. She questioned why
that condition is not in the list of items to be fulfilled prior to final reading
consideration.
The -Director of Current Planning explained that fencing is no longer an issue as
the adjacent property owner to the north has sold her property to the developer
and therefore the need for an intervening fence is no longer there.
Councillor Gordon noted that Council has no way of knowing if there is a change
in status of a condition imposed by Council and asked staff to update Council in
the future if circumstances change in that regard.

Discussion
On question from Couricillor King, the Municipal Clerk advised that the meeting
schedule can be amended by Council resolution.
Councillor Harris noted that there are not many meetings scheduled during the
month of August and questioned if this is a departure from the regular practice.
The Chief Administrative Officer explained that past experience has shown that
there are a number of Councillors on holiday at that time and development
activity is reduced in the summer. It is anticipated that Council business can still
be adequately conducted with the reduced schedule.

05.09 Maple Ridge 2000 Provisional Budget By-law 5874-1999
Mayor's 2000 Provisional Budget Address
"It is my privilege to introduce our 2000 Provisional Budget.
This Council was faced with a significant challenge to produce a balanced Provisional
Budget for 2000 considering five of the seven members were elected just a few, weeks
ago.
Over the past few weeks we have been working diligently reviewing the departmental
business plans and budget estimates, financial statements and forecasts. We have listened
to a number of presentations to attain an understanding of municipal operations. We
have aligned this with the municipal strategic plans and the needs, as we understand
them, of the citizens of Maple Ridge.
It has not been perfect but we are very pleased with the start and with what we have
accomplished. There is still much to be done before the final Financial Plan and tax rates
are adopted in the spring of 2000.
Under the financial reforms of the Provincial Government's Bill 88 we had the option of
producing a Provisional Budget as we have done in the past or to defer preparing a
budget until the spring of 2000 when a five year comprehensive Financial Plan is
required. We have chosen to prepare a Provisional Budget as in past years and provide
our community with a sense of direction for 2000. By exercising this option our
community, from a business and personal perspective can make their plans. It will also
position us as a Counôil to make strategic decisions for 2000 and onward.
Key points of the 2000 Provisional Budget are:
Council Meeting Minutes 1 December 14, 1999
Page 9
. Real growth of 3.54% for new tax revenue of $ 800 K
• Tax increase of 3.63 %:
- 2.63 % for general municipal purposes
- 1.00 % for the Capital Works Reserve Fund
This will generate $ 847 K
• Changes to revenue are:
- Investment earnings are up by $50K
- Other revenue source adjustments of $1 00K
• Planning Application fees are forecast to decline by $38,500 and building permit fees
are expected to remain flat at $ 1.0 Million; this reflects the flat economy.
• On the expenditure side:
- Police costs are up by $355 K; $285 K of this is the result of an increase in the
RCMP Contract when the Federal Government lifted the freeze on wage and
salary increases; various internal operating changes will offset net savings of
$30K.
- Fire Department budget is increased by $1 75K for a variety of items including
equipment testing, capital acquisition and a community fire education program.
- The ECRA recreation for service contract adds a gross $1 50K.
- Parks and Recreation is increased by $95K. to reflect added costs.
- Museum will receive an additional $30K.
- Grant to the province to retain the Courthouse in Maple Ridge is $11 2K (Maple
Ridge share only); we have now received confirmation that the province has been
successful in reducing the valuation on the building; this will reduce the grant in
lieu of taxes by $ 9K.
- A provision for a potential overlap of payments on the library facility leases of
$173K.
- Various other items have been included to improve efficiencies and effectiveness.
• Of much importance is the addition of $65K for Economic Development; the
methodology and details will be released after consultation with various groups.
• $2.3 Million is allocated for capital expenditures; $ 1.338 Million is allocated to the
Capital Works Reserve Fund.
• Water Rate increase of $15 for flat rate users and an equivalent rate increase for
metered users. In addition, to bring about equity in the rate structure between the
metered and flat rate users, there will be only 1 rate for metered users in 2000 and it is
.395 per cubic meter.
Our cost of purchasing water from the Greater Vancouver Water District is forecast to
increase by 14.7% of which 8.2% is the rate increase. For the years up to 2008 the rate
increase for purchased water is some 8% per year; overall, the rate increase is 63%. This
Council Meeting Minutes
December 14, 1999
Page 10
reflects the capital infrastructure investment by the Greater Vancouver Water District to
insure quality water is available in the region.
In addition, the Municipality intends to invest $1.507 Million in water infrastructure in
2000; this is funded from the Water Utility Fund.
• Sewer rate increase of $10 for flat rate users and an equivalent rate increase for
metered users.
The cost of treatment of liquid waste by the Greater Vancouver Sewage and Drainage is
forecast to increase by 8.2%; this translates into $230K. As with water, our cost is
forecast to increase by 47.5% by 2008.
Over the years we have staged our utility increases based on the cost of infrastructure
improvements by the GVRD and our own internal capital program. In 2000 we will be
drawing on the equity position of each fund to pay for part of the expenditure program
and therefore, lessen the rate increases. Both utility funds are expected to operate in
deficit position for the year.
• A recycling plastics program will be introduced; the cost of the service will add $6
per household.
• The average urban home with an assessed value of $186,839 will experience an
overall increase of 3.8% or $60; a similar home in the rural area will experience an
increase of 2.48% or $29. It should be noted this represents only the Municipal share
of taxation.
• For the benefit of the citizens of Maple Ridge we propose in 2000 to have the
Municipal Hall open over the holiday season.
A great deal of effort has gone into the preparation of the 2000 Provisional Budget
planning process. I would like to take this occasion to thank Council members and staff
for their effort and contribution.
We expect the highlights of the Provisional Budget to be on our Web Page in the very
near future. A handout of the highlights, by-law and the summary are available for the
press and general public.

that Maple Ridge Council Indemnity and Expenses Amending By-law
No. 5862-1999 be read a first and second time and that rules of order be
waived and Maple Ridge Council Indemnity and Expenses Amending
By-law No. 5 862-1999 be read a third time.
Discussion
Councillor Morse asked the Chief Administrative Officer to explain how the
figures in the by-law were arrived at, noting that this matter was deferred to the
incoming Council.
The Chief Administrative Officer explained that prior to a Municipal election,
Council appoints a Council Indemnity Review Committee, which is a citizens'
committee, to research and compare Council indemnities throughout the lower
mainland and Canada. The Committee looks at Council's workload, etc. and then
makes a recommendation to Council prior to the election, however, due to timing
circumstances, this by-law was not dealt with prior to this year's election.
He further noted that Maple Ridge is in the mid-range for Council indemnities
and given the growth rate of the Municipality and some of the other activities that
Council Meeting Minutes
December 14, 1999
Page 13
are occurring, the Committee recommended a small increase in the indemnities.
The increase is easily accommodated in the 2000 budget.
The Mayor questioned the Committees' comments with respect to the District of
Maple Ridge giving consideration to having a larger Council. The Chief
Administrative Officer advised that the Committee's recommendation is that
Council re-visit that issue within the next three years. There are some guidelines
in the legislation that need to be considered but certainly given the current size of
the District, it would not be unreasonable to consider having another two officials
if Council chose to do that. That issue can be looked at over the next three years.

06.05.03 Development Permit DP/58199 (11995 Haney Place) - Maple Ridge Town

Reference was made to the staff report dated December 13, 1999 recommending
that the subject permit to permit construction of an office/library complex be
executed.
R199-579 MOVED by Councillor Isaac

11995 HaneyPlace
that the Municipal Clerk be authorized to sign and seal DP/58/99
respecting property located at 11995 Haney Place, subject to resolution of
the drive-through teller facility on Fraser street and compliance with
deficiencies outlined in the report.
Discussion
The Director of Current Planning displayed a revised plan of the proposal on the
overhead and identified the location of the proposed six storey office/commercial
complex at the southeast corner of the site, with a two storey element projecting
to the west property line to Dewdney Trunk Road. A central short-term parking
area also provides access to the underground parking structure.
He advised that the project must conform to the guidelines of Development
Permit Area DPA XXXVI which applies to the entire downtown core project. He
went through the following four categories of those guidelines - site plan,
building form, landscaping. signage and lighting - and provided staffs comments
on same, all of which are contained in the report..
He noted that landscaping and signage were difficult items for staff and the
developer to come to a conclusion on in terms of their relationship to the overall
landscape plan for the entire core project. He presented schematic landscape
Council Meeting Minutes
December 14, 1999
Page 14
drawings, noting that staff is comfortable that they will mesh with the balance of
the core project. It is the intent to bring forward a full landscape package for the
core project in a subsequent Development Permit proposal. Signage and lighting
will also be the subject of a subsequent Development Permit and will also be
contingent on DPA XXXVI requirements.
He explained the proposed walkway system through the pedestrian area and noted
that Fraserview Street will be enhanced with landscaping.
He advised that there is one element of the proposal that is of concern to staff and
that is the inclusion of a drive-through teller (ATM) on Fraser Street. A consultant
has advised that the ATM has room for one vehicle at the machine and
approximate storage for one vehicle before blocking Fraser Street. Typically,
ATM's should have room for storage of approximately 2 to 3 vehicles. An ATM
should not be put in unless storage for three vehicles (in addition to the vehicle at
the machine) is achievable. The District needs to work with the developers to
achieve that stacking capability in this area and explore the possibility of
continuing the landscaping elements on Fraser Street. It is felt that this deficiency
can be worked out at a later date.
On question from the Mayor, the Director of Current Planning advised that the
revised design respects the concerns previously raised by the Advisory Design
Panel with respect to the facade of the building, loading areas in the southwest
corner and general circulation and pedestrianaccess. Those concerns have been
resolved in the revised plan. There have also been some canopy elements
introduced and a more elaborate presentation of the buildings towards the park.
Councillor King asked if additional wording to the motion is needed to ensure that
the deficiencies in the design will be taken care of at a later date. The Chief
Administrative Officer advised that this is the first project in a series of discrete
elements and is work in progress. Staff is confident that the issues raised in the
report are resolvable and they must be resolved as the project moves forward.
The developer is aware that those deficiencies are there and must be addressed.
The Development Permit will provide them with the opportunity to start
excavation.
Councillor King noted that Council has reviewed several revisions of the design
and is pleased with the ongoing improvements that have been made.
The Mayor advised that the proponents of the project• were asked to be in
attendance and called upon Mr. Grant Turnbull of Voth Bros. and Mr. Ken
McTaggert of Toby, Russell, Buckwell and Partners to provide further details of
the proposed library/office complex. Council agreed to receive this information
by unanimous consent.
Council Meeting Minutes
December 14, 1999
Page 15
Mr. Turnbull advised that the proponents are very appreciative of the excellent
working relationship they have with Council, staff and members of the
community they have come in contact with. He further noted that the revised
design reflects the comments of the Advisory Design Panel and they will follow
through on that process with the other components of the project.
Mr. McTaggert displayed a rendering of the building in question and provided
details of the design, noting that the building has now been reduced from 8 or 9
storeys to 6. The building will feature materials that match the existing Municipal
Hall. Mr. McTaggert provided further details of the library space, proposed retail
space and pedestrian linkages.
The Municipal Clerk noted that the staff report and recommendation would
normally be presented to Committee of the Whole first prior to being forwarded
to Council, however, there are no further Committee meetings in December.

the Foundation and the money is to develop, new projects in the Millennium.
There are many good ideas coming forward that will be of benefit to the
community.
Councillor King added that the Foundation is embarking on a special Millennium

to carry out other Millennium works.

07 MAYOR'S REPORTS
07.01 Maple Ridge Town Centre Project
The Mayor advised that he has issued a press release on the above noted project and
there will be an information binder available to the press and public tomorrow
outlining the entire core project.
He further advised that Council had considerable discussion last week on the core
project during the budget deliberations. At this point in time the press release reflects
Council's general overall support of the project. As mentioned earlier in this
meeting, there is fine-tuning that will have to be done. He hopes that when the public
has an opportunity to read the report they will see that there is a benefit to this
community through the works that were done by the previous Council, this Council
and staff. It is a topic that has received a' great deal of debate and it is not over yet.
He hopes that Council is a first taking step in the right direction by bringing this
information forward.
The Mayor further advised that on January 11, 2000 during the regular Council
Meeting,. there will be an in-depth detailed presentation on the core project and he
invites the citizens of Maple Ridge to attend.
Councillor Morse asked if the public will be able to ask questions at the January 11th
meeting, although she realizes there will be time constraints.
The Mayor advised that he anticipates that it will be a presentation only as there is no
provision in the time allotment for questions. He is looking at how more meetings
can be scheduled within the Municipality to give people additional, exposure to the
project.
He added that one of the issues that came up during the election campaign was a

11 QUESTIONS FROM THE PUBLIC
11.1 Maple Ridge Town Centre Project, etc.
Mr. Gordon Robson asked that council not proceed with further demolition of
buildings until they can explain to the public how they are going to pay for all of the
project.
The Chief Administrative Officer clarified that there is no further demolition
scheduled for some time. The financial implications have been made available to the
public and that can be done again.
Mr. Robson stated that if Council wishes to expedite the current legaF matter, he will
be happy to do so if Council can tell him where they are going.
A speaker expressed the opinion that the core redevelopment project was started
illegally and is proceeding illegally. He questioned where the opportunity is for
public input and a Referendum and why the project was not tendered. He is
personally requesting a full scale criminal investigation by the R.C.M.P.
The Mayor advised that the full background of the project has been made public and
he hopes that it will give people a better understanding of the project.

11.2 Blaney Bog, Taxation, Fraser Bridge CrossiAg.
Mr. Ed Murray of 128 Avenue noted that it has been reported in the newspaper that
Council has approved a 3.6% tax increase. He questioned what happened to the
revenue from last year's 3.9% tax increase.
The Chief Administrative Officer explained that in 1998 the Province reduced their
grant to Maple Ridge by $1 million and at the same time downloaded a number of
roads to the District to maintain. In addition, the Province gave the District a series of
buildings to pay for, e.g. the Court House. The Province in total downloaded to the
District $2.5 million and the revenue from the 1998 tax increase was required to help
offset that loss of revenue.
Mr. Murray also objected to the District paying $3.5 million to acquire lands in
Blaney Bog for preservation. He questioned if it is necessary to buy the bog.
The General Manager of Community Development, Parks and Recreation Services
explained that the source of the funding would be the Water Course Preservation
Fund which is earmarked for protection of ecologically sensitive areas such as the
bog.
Mr. Murray questioned the status of the construction of a bridge over the Fraser
River.
The Mayor advised that he is waiting for a report from the Province on possible
locations.
The General Manager of Public Works and Development Services advised that it is
his understanding the Province will be releasing the bridge study in January and the
District has asked the Ministry of Transportation and Highways to come to a Council
meeting to explain their findings.

FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: C of W - PW & Dev
SUBJECT: DP158199- Town Centre Redevelopment
Office and Library Building
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This development permit application is the first of several that are anticipated for the Town
Centre redevelopment. This application is intended to permit construction of an office/library
complex fronting Dewdney Trunk Road. The comments provided by the Advisory Design Panel
are somewhat general as fully developed plans for the facility were not available for the
September 30, 1999 meeting. The Advisory Design Panel did not provide a formal resolution
regarding the project and instead offered a number of observations and concerns. It is
recommended that the permit application be supported subject to compliance with Development
Permit Area Guidelines.
II RECOMMENDATION:
That the Municipal Clerk be authorized to sign and seal DP/58199 respecting property
located at 11995 Haney Place, subject to resolution of the drive-through teller facility on
Fraser Street and compliance with deficiencies outlined in this report.

IV PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The first phase of the Core redevelopment is located at the site of the existing municipal parking lot
and includes most of the area presently occupied by the Old Library. The proposal identifies a six-
storey office/commercial complex at the southeast corner of the site, with a two-storey element
o61ccO3
4 V
projecting to the west boundary and north along the west property line to Dewdney Trunk Road. A
central short-term parking area is created immediately adjacent to Dewdney Trunk Road. This area
also provides access to an underground parking structure.
An attempt is made through design to draw from elements of the existing municipal buildings. The
two-storey element is provided with some prominence, specifically using materials consistent with
adjacent buildings.
V PLANNING ANALYSIS
Analysis of the project is guided by the Official Community Plan and specifically by
Development Permit Area XXXVI guidelines. These guidelines were prepared in anticipation of
the redevelopment of the area bounded by Dewdney Trunk Road, Lougheed Highway, 224 "
Street and 226th Street. Comments are grouped within the four categories identified by the
Guidelines.
Site Plan Guidelines (DPA XXX VI)
The surrounding streets all provide public frontages to the Civic Core Plan. The orientation of the various
buildings and uses should recognize these frontages through appropriate orientation of entries and the
treatment of building exteriors at street level. Streets that require consideration include McIntosh Avenue,
Dewdney Trunk Road, Lougheed Highway, 224th Street, Edge Street; 226th Street and Selkirk Avenue.
Service areas must be screened from public view and limit conflicts with pedestrians on surrounding streets.
Where possible service areas should be internalized.
Well defined pedestrian routes through the site should provide clear linkages between 224 0' Street and Edge
Street and between Dewdney Trunk Road and Lougheed Highway.
Public squares and gardens should provide a focus to surrounding buildings ensuring a high degree of
visibility.
Transit hubs should be located convenient to pedestrian corridors. The design of these hubs should provide a
pleasant experience for transit users ensuring the viability of the service.
Parking areas should accommodate well delineated pedestrian routes. Landscaping should accommodate
street trees in a pattern mimicking street landscape design ensuring larger parking areas are effectively divided
into smaller, visually more pleasing areas.
Comments
The site plan for the complex addresses most of the criteria identified for this section of the
guidelines. Of concern however is the inclusion of a drive-through teller on Fraser Street. If this
facility is considered as an external service for the financial institution, the facility is inconsistent
with the requirement to internalize service areas. Further, the Fraser Street streetscape is
somewhat compromised by the elimination of a section of the tree canopy proposed for the east
side of Fraser Street..
Infrastructure Systems Ltd. has been retained by the District to provide a review of traffic issues
related to the Town Centre redevelopment. Among many issues examined, the consultant has
advised that "The ATM has room for one vehicle at the mac/line and approximately storage for
-2-
one vehicle before blocking Fraser Street. Typically, ATM's should have room for storage of
approximately 2-3 vehicles. This will completely close Fraser Street to Dewdney Trunk Road
unless the entrance roadway is widened in this area."
The consultant further recommended that "An ATM should not be put in unless storage for 3
vehicles in addition to the vehicle at the machine is achievable."
Considering the comments from the consultant and the guidelines for DPA XXX VI, the portion
of the building containing the drive through teller and the Street adjacent to this facility should be
designed to respect the guidelines and accommodate at least three vehicles in the cue (including
the vehicle at the machine).
Building Form Guidelines (DPA XXX VI)
Buildings should emphasize the street frontages through the orientation of entries and the use of
fenestration.
Significant corners should be given added emphasis with vertical architectural features and roofscape
features. Buildings that would otherwise have a horizontal massing should provide height differentiation
and corresponding articulation of facades to create an image of smaller components each with a greater
vertical emphasis for the massing.
Exterior finishes should be brick, natural stone, wood. Substantial areas of concrete should be avoided.
Pedestrian amenity should enjoy a priority through the use of interesting design detail at ground level,
easily identifiable entrances, shopfronts with clear, untinted glazing, concentration of signage at ground
level and, attractive landscaping.
Underground parking facilities should be designed with public safety in mind. Entries should be highly
visible, well lit and spaced at convenient intervals. Blind corners must be avoided.
Comments:
The building addresses the need to define the surrounding street frontages. Initial plans
presented at the Advisory Design Panel required some modifications to meet other requirements
of the guidelines. The following comments highlight the changes.
Although the guidelines suggest that the entry for the retail space on Dewdney, Trunk
Road be located on that Street, grade separation between the existing sidewalk and the
proposed level of the first floor limit the ability to locate entries directly on Dewdney
Trunk Road. The entry to the retail area is located as close to Dewdney Trunk Road as
possible and is accessed from the surface parking area.
2. The south elevation for the project is successful in providing a degree of consistency in
the use of materials with the design of neighbouring buildings such as the existing
municipal office, the courthouse and police station. This is also consistent with DPA
guideline requirements that provide information regarding the use of certain materials for
external finishes. The north and west elevations were initially less successful in this
regard. However, recent revisions have shown, wherever possible, increased use of brick
materials instead of glazing. -
-3-
Pedestrian access to each of the entries is defined.
The design of the underground parking should be designed with safety in mind. To this
end the Advisory Design Panel recommended the use of smaller round columns, white
paint and good lighting. The Panel also recommended that the entries should be highly
visible and spaced at convenient intervals and encouraged the use of natural light to
provide light during daylight hours. The applicant has responded to these concerns, and
advises that the use of smaller round columns in the parking garage is not possible in this
design. A significant number of required parking stalls would be lost with the use of
larger round columns, which are required to accommodate the building loads. However,
the parking will be brightly lit, and the walls and ceiling painted white. The entrances
will be well defined and be glazed to ensure good visual contact.
Given the constraints of building design, staff support the effort made by the applicant in
addressing the above noted issues and concur with the design solutions presented.
Landscapin2 Guidelines (DPA XXX VI)
Landscaping should define the purpose and emphasize the desired character and function of public space.
Landscaping should reinforce design continuity with neighbouring properties and the streetscape by
providing consistency in street trees, plant materials, and other landscaping elements. Simplicity in
landscaping materials is desirable and should be encouraged for screening purposes.
Street trees will be a required component of all development.
Comments:
The landscape design provides elements recommended by the guidelines, but does not provide
sufficient detail at this time to evaluate the viability of the proposal given the difficult
environment created with landscaping above the underground-parking garage. It is
recommended that a more detailed review of the overall landscaping program for the entire
project be completed at a subsequent phase.
Signa2e and 'Lightin2 Guidelines (DPA XXX VI)
Signage should be integrated with the design of a building, preferably at ground level only, and its size and
design should complement the scale and architectural detail of the building.
All signage shall conform to the Maple Ridge Sign Bylaw with the exception of freestanding, projecting,
rotating, temporary portable, balloon and changeable readograph signs that will detract from the character
of the area and are therefore prohibited.
3. High intensity illumination should be minimized. Pedestrian level lighting is required along all pedestrian
routes and pedestrian plazas.
Comments:
/
-4.
Signage and lighting information has not been provided with the application. The guidelines
provide specific direction in regards to the design of these features. It is recommended that
approval be contingent on compliance with these requirements.
VI CONCLUSION:
The initial' phase of the Downtown Core redevelopment addresses many of the requirements of
the Development Permit Area Guidelines. It is recommended that the application be supported
subject to compliance with the recommendations contained in this report. These include:
I. Redesign of the building and street adjacent to the drive through teller to respect the
guidelines and accommodate at least three vehicles in the cue (including the vehicle at the
machine).
Detailed review of the overall landscaping program for the entire project to be completed at a
subsequent phase.
Signage & lightirg iipproyal becontingent on compliance with DPA XXXVI requirements.

and Members of Council FILE NO: DVP/44/99
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: C of W - PW & Dev
SUBJECT: DVP/44/99
23233 Kanaka Way
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
A Development Vanance Permit application has been received in which the applicant is requesting
that the following requirements be waived.
1. Convert existing overhead wires on the north side of Kanaka Way to underground facilities.
After reviewing the application, staff recommend that DVP/44/99 be given favourable
consideration.
II RECOMMENDATION:
That the Municipal Clerk be authorized to notify qualifying property owners that
approval of DVP/ 44/99 respecting property located at 23233 Kanaka Way
will be considered by Council at the December 14' 1999 meeting.
LII BACKGROUND:
Applicant: J. Castell
Legal Description: Lot 1 LMP 36190
Previous Applications: DP/44/99 RZ110/96
Staff are currently reviewing a building permit application in which the applicant is proposing an 18
unit townhouse development. Before issuance of the building permit, one of the conditions to be
satisfied is the District of Maple Ridge Subdivision and Development Services Bylaw, Schedule
"B". which states:
"That parcels within a proposed subdivision or development shall be-provided with-services
in accordnce with Schedule "A" and all highways within, or immediately adjacent to a
proposed subdivision or development shall be constructed in accordance with Schedule "A".
Schedule "A" requires full urban services in the CS-I zone, including curb, gutter, sidewalks
and underground wiring:.
The applicant is requesting that the requirements to convert overhead wiring to underground on the
Kanaka Way frontage be waived.
Iv PLANNING ANALYSIS
Policy Implications
The subject property is located north of Kanaka Way east of Cottonwood Drive. The overhead wires
on Kanaka Way at this location appear on a reference map attached to an earlier policy
recommendation indicating lines which will not be converted.
VI CONCLUSION:
Based on the current policy, Staff recommend support for this application.

IV PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Rural Residential
Development applications for Single Family Residential
Agricultural
Horseshoe Creek (Conservation)
Rural Residential
approximately 9 single family lots
Access will be provided by the extension of 239A Street and a
lane which are currently under construction to the south lot line.
All urban services will be provided in the municipal streets.
The applicant has applied to rezone the subject property to CD-1-93 (Amenity Residential District) to
permit subsequent subdivision into approximately 9 lots. This project will extend 239A Street and the
paralleling lane north to 116 Avenue and construct 116 Avenue east to 240 Street. The lots on 240 Street
and the east side of 239A Street will be accessed by motor vehicle from the lane. This subdivision will
complete the development pattern established south to 1 14A Avenue.
Horseshoe Creek tapers northeasterly towards 240 Street. However, there appears to be enough land
available outside the riparian protection zone to provide for one lot on the west side of 239A Street.
V PLANNING ANALYSIS
(i) 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 "if'
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.
-2-
Servicing
Subdivision of land south of the subject property (applications RZ/12/99 and SD/12/99) will
provide all urban services to the subject property. Accordingly, those applications must be
complete prior to final zoning approval.
Road Exchange
At a meeting held August 24, 1999 Council reviewed a report titled "116 Avenue, Maple Ridge:
240 Street to Creekside Street - Assessment of Need for a Road Link" and passed a resolution
that 116 Avenue from 238A Street to 239A Street not be built as a full road but that a
cycle/footpath be constructed in the right of way. A portion of this right-of-way is presently
adjacent to the site, but as a consequence of park dedication at rezoning, will not be adjacent
during subsequent subdivision approval. Recognizing the importance of this walkway, staff
recommend that a rezoning development agreement be required to secure construction of that
portion of the walkway adjacent to the subject property.
Since 116 Avenue will not connect Creekside Drive with 240 Street, staff recommend a
reduction in the existing 116 Avenue right of way adjacent to the subject property from 20 in to
18 in to reflect anticipated reduced traffic volumes for this local street. The geometry submitted
reflects the reduced right of way. A road exchange bylaw will be presented for Council approval
to facilitate this right of way reduction
VI CONCLUSION:
This development conforms to the Official Community Plan designations and completes the land use
pattern established for this neighbourhood. Noting that the subdivision plan has been received, it is
recommended that this application be supported and forwarded to Public Hearing and that Maple Ridge
Zone Amending Bylaw No. 5866 - 1999 be given first reading.

Mayor Durksen explained the procedure of the Public Hearing and advised that in accordance
with the Municipal Act, no further input into Public Hearing items can be received by the
Municipal Council until they are either adopted or defeated. The item being heard will be
considered further by Council on November 23, 1999.
The Mayor then called upon the Director of Current Planning to present the following item on
the agenda:
-0-4 1. RZ133199 - MAPLE RIDGE ZONE AMENDING BYLAW NO. 5832-1999
LEGAL: Lot D, Section 20, Township 12, Plan LMP39034, New
Westminster District
LOCATION: 12689 - 227B Street
FROM: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential)
TO: R-1 (Residential District)
PURPOSE: To create one lot approximately 486m 2 in area.
The Director of Current Planning displayed an overhead map of the subject property and
reiterated the purpose of the by-law as noted above.
Public Hearing Minutes
November 16, 1999
Page 2
He identified the location of Lot D which was created as part of a larger neighbourhood in
1993. Lot D contains an existing single family residential house.
He displayed the proposed subdivision plan which will create the 486m2 lot. He noted that
the R-1 lot is smaller than the surrounding properties. The application is being heard at
Public Hearing as a result of a recent policy for infihl development in existing
neighbourhoods which was adopted earlier this year. The development is consistent with
Policy 25 of the Official Community Plan to encourage small scale housing developments
in existing neighbourhoods and as a result, there is no accompanying Official Community
Plan Amending By-law required. The applicants are required to submit a building scheme
which conforms to Policy 25 as a condition of final approval.
Councillor Clements questioned the size of the total parcel and the Director of Current
Planning advised that it is approximately 1300 m 2.
The Municipal Clerk confirmed that no correspondence has been received related to the
subject by-law.
Mr. John Trevithic of 22727 - 127 Avenue advised that he lives across from the proposed
development site. He has a 7200 square foot lot which is the reason he moved into the
area. He assumed that the property in question would stay the same. He noted that the
development on lots west of Lot D already creates a problem with traffic at the corner.
People currently park in the street and this development will cause a further problem as it
will have inadequate parking. The corner is very dangerous now due to speeders and this
development will add to that problem. He does not feel that this development proposal
should go through.
There was no further comment and the Mayor declared this item dealt with.
Having given all those persons whose interests were deemed affected by the matters contained
herein a chance to be heard, the Mayor terminated the Public Hearing at 7:09 p.m.

2.8 DP127198— 11970— 232 Street and two lots on Dewdney Trunk Road
Reference \yas made to the staff report dated October 12, 1999 recommending execution
of the subjt permit for a gasoline bar, convenience store, restaurant and car wash.
At the requet of Councillor King, the Planner displayed drawings showing the measures
that have beki taken to protect the adjacent residential area from noise, etc. from the
subject commkrcial facility.
The Planner elained that the operator of the facility has offered to put a restrictive
covenant on titlk as part of the rezoning to restrict the hours of operation. The covenant
will be on the tle of the gasoline station. There have been a number of screening
measures taken t4 mitigate the impact on the residential area. The gasoline station is 3 to
4 feet lower than Vhe residential area. There is a six foot fence with very heavy landscape
screening between\the store and the residential area. The store at one time included a fast
food outlet with a ive-through window but that component has been eliminated. The
carwash is automati'ç as opposed to a wand-wash. The lighting for the service station will
be kept at a level thkt is below the height of the fences along the back and there will be
shields on the lights.
Councillor Clements oted that the sign is a modified low level sign. He questioned if
that type of signage isVovered in the Sign By-law and if it something we might see on
other sites as well.
The Planner advised thai this is the third project where the signs have been modified. In
future applications it wiV be recommended that the low level signage be required in a
Development Permit are where there is the potential to impact on the character of the
neighbourhood. The Devlopment Permit regulations take precedence over the Sign By-
law.
He further clarified that if l is Council's wish to replace the existing signs, there would
have to be an amendment tothe Sign By-law.
Councillor Gordon stated thashe will vote in favour of the Development Permit although
she was opposed to the rezning until Council established a policy for commercial
development adjacent to residtial areas.
She further expressed concern Vbout the residential area being higher than the gasoline
station, noting that sound travelupward.
A brief discussion ensued on lits in another new commercial development that have
resulted in complaints to the District. The Planner explained that measures have been
taken to require the facility to rake modifications which have been delayed due to
supplier problems.
Councillor Levens questioned whythe Sign By-law regulations are different than the
Development Permit regulations w4i respect to low level signage. She suggested that
this issue be included in the review othe Sign By-law that is currently underway.

Discussion
Councillor Stewart noted that the issue of buffering between the subject site and
the property to the north came up at the Public Hearing and asked the Director of
Current Planning to comment on that issue.
The Director of Current Planning advised that buffering is not normally required
for a fee simple subdivision.
He displayed an overhead map showing the two properties in question and a
proposed plan of subdivision and identified the buffering that was talked about at
the Public Hearing. He reiterated that buffering is not normally a requirement of
subdivision and the Approving Officer does not have the authority to require
buffering between two residential properties. It is traditional in fee simple
subdivisions to have a side yard fence.
Councillor Baker noted that a request was also made at the Public Hearing by the
adjacent property owners to the north for an eight foot high fence, however, the
Zoning By-law regulations only permit a six foot fence.
Councillor Gordon noted that the adjacent property owners to the north also
expressed concern that their horses will be impacted by the proposed subdivision.
That type of concern comes up when newly emerging areas interface with
acreages. She questioned if the District has any policies to address that issue. She
added that she would like to see arrangements made in this case for adequate
fencing.
Councillor Baker suggested that tree planting also be a requirement along the
interface.
The Director of Current Planning advised that if this land were in the Agricultural
Land Reserve, the Agricultural Land Commission would encourage a buffer,
however, this is an emerging urban area. If Council is concerned about the
buffering issue, they can make it a condition that sufficient security be provided
prior to rezoning for construction of a fence along the interface that meets the
standards of the Zoning By-law.

LOCATION: 11535 and 11555 - 240 Street
FROM: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential)
TO: CD-1-93 (Amenity Residential District)
PURPOSE: To create approximately 31 lots, each not less than 371m 2.
The Planner displayed an overhead map of the site and adjacent lands and identified the
two properties involved in the application. He advised that 240 Street runs along the
eastern boundary of the property. He reiterated the purpose of the by-law, noting that the
application is consistent with the Official Community Plan designation for the lands.
He further advised that the proposed pattern of development continues the pattern of
development that has been established with previous development in the area.
The Planner displayed a proposed plan of development. He explained the access
provisions which show the continuation of 239A Street with 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. A cul-de-sac extending west from 239A Street will provide access to approximately
9 lots. There is another access proposed off 240 Street mid-block between 114 Avenue
and 116 Avenue.
He added that the lands impacted by the creek system are to be dedicated as park.
The Municipal Clerk advised that a letter has been received from Mary Blackstock of
11579 - 240 Street dated June 22, 1999. Copies of same have been circulated to the
Municipal Council. Mrs. Blackstock advised that she and her husband are remaining on
their acreage adjacent to the development site and ask that adequate fencing be erected
between their property and the proposed subdivision. They have concerns about the
safety of their horses. They suggest a solid wood fence at least eight feet high with row
of hedge type trees be installed on the subdivision side to help lower the higher water
table that subdivisions seem to generate.
Mr. David Laird of Damax Consultants Ltd. was present on behalf of the property
owners/applicants. He advised that it has now been determined that the maximum yield
will be 30 lots.
Mrs. Mary Blackstock addressed her concerns regarding the development of the proposed
subdivision next to her acreage.
She referred to and submitted a copy of a letter from William and Elizabeth Green of
11790 - 248 Street explaining problems they encountered in a similar situation. Those
problems include refuse being thrown over the fence, swimming pools being drained onto
their property; the grass in their pasture was poisoned along the fence line; rooks being
a ,,

thrown at their horses; and damaged fences. Other people they know have experienced
children coming onto their property to retrieve toys; cats making a mess in their gardens;
dogs barking at them when they go near the property line; basement suites, day care,
family fights, parties, etc. in the subdivision.
Mrs. Blackstock also submitted a copy of a letter from Michael and Nonna Hickey of
117776 - 248 Street to the Court of Revision appealing their property assessment due to
the impact of an adjacent subdivision and advising that their neighbours immediately to
the north in similar circumstances successfully appealed their assessment and received a
$10,000 reduction.
Mrs. Blackstock referred to her letter of June 22, 1999, which was earlier read into the
proceedings, in which she asked that the developer be required to construct an eight foot
solid fence with a hedge to soak up the increased water. She would now like to ask
Council to consider requiring the developer to leave a 15 to 30 foot buffer zone between
her property and the proposed subdivision site. If the Municipality requires the developer
to put in an access road from 240 Street, she asks that road be built between her property
and the subdivision to act as a buffer zone.
She added that their property is not an investment to make money out of but remains the
home that she and her husband have lived in for 23 years and she would like Council to
take that into consideration.
Mr. Laird referred to the proposed access road onto 240 Street and noted that it has been
positioned with the blessing of the Planning Department mid-block between 114 Avenue
and 116 Avenue. To construct the roadway requested by Mrs. Blackstock would not
make any sense. This would mean another cross-road 15 metres away from 116 Avenue
Mr. Laird further advised that he will make sure there is no water running from the
development property across Mrs. Blackstock's property. He will be extra careful to
make sure there is a good interface between the two properties. He added that he cannot
add anything from a design point of review with respect to the concerns regarding cats,
etc. raised by Mrs. Blackstock; he can only do his best as a designer to ensure that there is
as little impact as possible.
There was no further comment and the Acting Mayor declared this item dealt with.
Having given all those persons whose interests were deemed affected by the matters contained
herein a chance to be heard, the Mayor terminated the Public Hearing at 7:13 p.m.

03.03 Mr. David Laird - Agent for RZ112199 - 11535 and 11555 - 240 Street - (see
,2
06.02.07).
Mr. Laird advised that he is representing the applicants. He advised that they made an
application in Februazy 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.

that the conditions to be met prior to Public Hearing and prior to fmal
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 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 staffs 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.

Communities in Bloom is a program of environmental awareness and municipal beautification.
It is an initiative designed to involve whole communities in the challenge of improving the visual
appeal of Canada's cities.
Municipalities are judged on the accomplishments of their whole community with regard to
quality of the municipal green space, the diversity and originality of its landscaping, general
tidiness, environmental awareness, heritage conservation, urban forestry development, floral
displays, and the level of community invoivement -In- 1999 the judging took place in early.
August. -.
The Maple Ridge Communities in Bloom Committee has been chaired in the past by a Council
member with members from volunteer groups such as the Heritage Society, the Garden Club, the
Recycling Society, and Adopt-a-Block. Members also included representatives from the
landscape business community and municipal staff. Council may choose this year to assign a
Council member to the group while inviting the Committee to elect a Chair, given the strong
interest in continuing their involvement suggested by several 1999 Committee members.

The Committee promotes the Communities in Bloom program at the Home Show, the
Agricultural Fair, the Garden Club's garden competition and the Communities in Bloom Banners
Program.

Dear Sirs/Mesdames:
RE: MAPLE RIDGE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION'S "OUR MILLENNIUM" PROJECT
On behalf of our Foundation please accept my personal
congratulations on your election as the new council for Maple Ridge.
I am sure you are all proud of your achievement and excited about
taking Maple Ridge into the 21st Century.
The goal of our Foundation is to provide for the enrichment of the
quality of-life in Maple Ridge by developing permanent endowment
funds, the income of which is used to meet emerging and changing
community needs by supporting worthwhile charitable projects in
Maple Ridge.
We met with members of the preceding Maple Ridge Council to advise
them of the Foundation's "Our Millennium" project. The "Our
Millennium" project is an exciting national initiative of the
Community Foundations of Canada which will involve many Foundations
and Communities across Canada. We are very excited about this
program and are confident that it will be worthwhile and rewarding
for all of Maple Ridge. It also provides a means to have Maple Ridge
recognized nationally and throughout British Columbia.
We have retained Ron Jacobson of McQueen Marketing Inc. to be the
coordinator for "Our Milienirium". We have developed - an
Implementation Plan and established a Steering Committee whose
members include:
President:
Jim Connor
Vice-President:
Donna Telep

We would be very pleased to have you attend the Media Launch.

C D I(
We have received a grant of $10,000.00 from the Canadian Foundations
of Canada to assist in funding the "Our Millennium" project. We
require further funds to complete the project and therefore we are
writing to request that the Municipality kindly consider making a
$10,000.00 donation to partner with us in "Our Millennium" Maple
Ridge.
The goal of the "Our Millennium" Project is to encourage community
groups, either existing or adhoc, to celebrate the millennium by
doing something special in our community, something that lasts.
Our Foundation has established the ambitious goal of increasing our
permanent endowment fund by $200,000.00 which would be of great
benefit to numerous worthwhile charities in Maple Ridge for future
years. We are asking the Municipality to invest $25,000.00 in the
Foundation's "Our Millennium" Endowment Fund which will benefit our
citizens during the next century.
By way of background, I am enclosing the Implementation Plan for
"Our Millennium" Maple Ridge prepared by Ron Jacobson dated November
16, 1999, a fact sheet for "Our Millennium" Maple Ridge, a Community
Foundation fact sheet - 1999, a Catalogue of Possibilities for "Our
Millennium" and our 1998 Annual Report.
I would be very pleased to meet with you or answer any of your
questions in regard to the "Our Millennium" project or any other
activities of the Maple Ridge Community Foundation and to see you at
the Media Launch at RMSS on December 13, 1999 at 6:00 p.m.
Please feel free to contact myself or any of the other Directors at
any time.
Thank you for kind consideration.
Yours truly, -
