Morse DATE: ecember 4, 003 and Members of Council FILE N : RZ/033/02 FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: '€ SUBJECT: Second and Third Reading Maple Ridge Off Street Parking and Loading Amending Bylaw No. 6147-2003 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: On September 9, 2003 Council gave First Reading to an amendment to the Maple Ridge Off Street Parking and Loading Bylaw that would update the parking standards for Office, Arts Centre and Theatre, and provide for a reduction in parking requirements for certain multiple-use developments. Prior to being considered for Second and Third Reading, Council directed that the amending Bylaw be referred to the Chamber of Commerce and the Downtown Parking Society for comments. Pursuant with the Council direction, the Amending Bylaw was referred and comments have been received from both groups. RECOMMENDATION: That Maple Ridge Off-Street Parking and Loading Amending Bylaw No. 6147-2003 be given Second and Third Reading. BACKGROUND: In May 2002, Council gave Third Reading to a zone-amending bylaw to provide for the construction of 302 off-street surface parking stalls. The additional stalls would satisfy the number of required parking spaces for the town centre development (139 stalls on the former Safeway parking lot and 163 stalls on the vacant lot east 0f226th Street). At that time questions were raised regarding whether the additional parking was required, and whether a parking lot was the highest and best use of the parcel. Based on these concerns Bunt and Associates were retained to prepare a parking analysis. The parking analysis concluded that the demand for parking in the town centre was less than originally anticipated, and there was no need to proceed with the development of the eastern parking lot. The analysis further concluded that there is currently a large surplus of parking in the off-street parking lots surrounding the town centre. Even at peak Saturday times, the parking lots were only 67% filled, with 540 stalls remaining. During the evenings, the parking lots were only 25% filled, with 1200 available public parking stalls available within one block of the Arts Centre. Recognizing that parking is an issue for most property owners in the Downtown, the July 17, 2003 staff report recommended that the amending bylaw be referred to the Chamber of Commerce and Downtown Parking Society for comments prior to the granting of second and third reading to the Bylaw. The following section of the report highlights those organizations responses. qo2...- CORE PARIUNG ANALYSIS The parking requirement for the Town Centre development based on the current Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw is 824 parking stalls. The current parking calculation is as follows: Use Component Area Bylaw Required (m2 ) Requirement parking (space/rn2) City Hall/Office Office 2602 47 55 Theatre/Cultural Centre Art Gallery 258 93 3 Office 208 47 4 Theatre 3070 20 154 Studio 493 20 25 Fitness/Youth Centre Office 306 47 7 Assembly 1207 20 60 Indoor Recreation 6329 30 211 Library Library 3497 93 38 Tower Office 2213 47 47 Personal Service 6620 30 221 Total Town Centre n/a 26,803 n/a 824 As a component of the Parking Analysis, Bunt and Associates undertook parking usage counts encompassing a one-block radius surrounding the Town Centre. This distance was chosen because it is considered to be a reasonable distance for patrons to walk for parking purposes. The results concluded that there is currently a large surplus of parking in the off-street parking lots surrounding the Town Centre. AMENDMENTS TO THE PARKING AND LOADING BYLAW The parking analysis recommended that amendments to the Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw be prepared that would establish a new standard for Theatres and Cultural Centres and Offices, and establish a provision to allow for shared parking in multiple use development projects. The proposed amendments are as follows: Theatres and Cultural Centres - The existing Parking Bylaw considers theatre to be an Assembly use and requires 1 parking space per 20m 2 of gross floor area (GFA). The parking consultant recommends that the parking be based on 1 stall for every 4 seats. Office - The Parking Bylaw currently differentiates between Business Office (1 stall per 30 m 2 GFA) and Civic Office (1 stall per 47 m 2 GFA). The Consultant concludes that the Civic standard of 1 stall per 47 m2 is too low, and the general office rate of 1 stall per 30 m 2 is too high. It was further recommended that the Parking Bylaw be amended to incorporate a rate of 1 space per 40 m2 for both general office and civic office use. -2- Shared Parking in Multiple-Use Developments - In an addendum to the Parking Analysis, the Parking Consultant provided examples from other municipalities to demonstrate how shared parking can be implemented in the Parking Bylaw. The options provided are as follows: A policy to permit variances - Some municipalities, have a policy that will permit variances provided that the variance is supported by a parking study. This approach is not different than that currently utilized in the District. It is preferred that a more prescriptive approach for shared parking be established to provide certainty and clarity regarding the application of such a policy. Discretion of the Director of Planning and City Engineer - The City of Vancouver provides for shared parking at the discretion of the Director of Planning and the City Engineer. In Vancouver, requests for shared parking are referred to the Parking Branch of the Engineering Department for review. This approach is not recommended because it does not provide applicants with clarity regarding when such a policy would be applied. It is also noted that the City of Vancouver has parking specialists on staff who are able to respond to such requests. Maximum Reduction of 25% - The City of Surrey Zoning Bylaw includes a provision for a parking reduction of 25% for developments with shared parking. The parking consultant recommends this approach because it provides a greater degree of certainty regarding the amount of parking that may be relaxed. Specific Schedule of Time Variation - the City of Mississauga, Ontario provides for shared parking based on a series of time-variation factors. For example, the Bylaw illustrates two charts for calculating peak time on weekdays and weekends, and requires that parking be first calculated as if the uses were freestanding buildings. The parking requirement for each use is then multiplied by the percent of peak time for each time period (ie. noon, evening ... ). The advantage of this process is that it is relatively easy to apply and everyone has prior knowledge of what to expect. However, if the list of shared-uses is not comprehensive then some mixed-use development may not be eligible for the shared parking standard. The parking consultant does not recommend this approach. Recommendation: In considering the above options regarding shared parking in multiple-use developments, it is recommended that Option c) Maximum Reduction of 25% be incorporated into the Bylaw. This option provides for the sharing of parking for multiple-use developments and allows for clarity and certainty regarding when and how such a regulation is applied. -3- The proposed amendments would also benefit other uses such as the location of a day-care facility in conjunction with churches or other places of worship. To be eligible for the 25% reduction in parking, a parking analysis, prepared by a parking consultant would be required. CORE PARKING STANDARDS If the Office Parking standard, Theatre and Cultural Centre Parking standard, and Option c) 'Maximum Reduction of 25%' amendments noted above are incorporated into the Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw, the revised parking standard for the Core Development would be as follows: Use Component Area Bylaw Required (m2 ) Requirement parking (space/rn2) City Hall/Office Office 2602 40* 65* Theatre/Cultural Centre Art Gallery 258 93 3 Office 208 40* 5* Theatre 3070 1 per 4 seats* 125* Studio 493 20 25 Fitness/Youth Centre Office 306 40* 8* Assembly 1207 20 60 Indoor Recreation 6329 30 211 Library Library 3497 93 38 Tower Office 2213 40* 55 Personal Service 6620 30 221 Total Town Centre n/a 26,803 n/a 816* Less 25% for shared 204* Total Town Centre 612* * identifies proposed amendments to the Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw The Parking Analysis states that the 659 stalls in the underground parkade and surface lot are more than sufficient to accommodate peak demand. The amended parking requirement of 612 spaces would imply a surplus of 47 parking stalls are available in the underground parkade and surface lot, in addition to the 1578 parking stalls available on-street and in the immediate area. OFF-STREET PARIUNG AND LOADING AMENDING BYLAW REFERRAL: On September 11, 2003, the amending bylaw was referred to the Chamber of Commerce and Downtown Parking Society for comments. The Chamber of Commerce supports the proposed amendments to the Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw as indicated in their attached letter of October 10, 2003. -4- The Downtown Parking Society supports the proposed amendment to the parking standards for the Theatre component of the Arts Centre (1 space per 4 fixed seats from 1 space per 20 m 2). However, they are not in support of the proposed 25% reduction in the number of parking spaces for multiple-use developments as they are of the opinion that it would hinder the municipality's ability to obtain cash-in-lieu of required parking spaces. Their comments also include concerns related to possible future uses of the Arts Centre and other land uses in the Downtown, including a hotel and redevelopment of the former Safeway store in the Haney Place Mall. In response to this concern, it is noted that any change in land use would be subject to the off-street parking standards prescribed in the Parking Bylaw. If the proposed use was deficient of parking, the applicant would have the option of retaining a parking consultant to verify if a 25% reduction is warranted (for a multiple-use development); paying cash-in-lieu of parking; or securing parking on a neighbouring site (within 150 metres). Multiple-use development applications that include a request for a reduction in the number of parking spaces will require a parking study, proving that the reduction can be accommodated, at the time of application. The proposed amendments to the Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw would only apply to those properties or proposals that meet the definition of Multiple Use Development, as defined. The Downtown Parking Society's memo of November 4, 2003 is attached for information. INTERDEPARTMENTAL IMPLICATIONS: Staff from the Fire, Police, Engineering, Building, Permits & Bylaws and Planning Departments have reviewed the Parking Analysis and are supportive of the proposed amendments to the Off- Street Parking and Loading Bylaw. Questions have previously been raised regarding the re-occupation of the courthouse and the required parking. It has been acknowledged that surplus parking stalls would be available for purchase in the underground or surface lot should additional parking be required in the future. ALTERNATIVES: • Adoption of the proposed amendments to the Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw as discussed in. this report. This is the recom mended all aiive. • Continuation of the current practice of considering requests for reductions of the required parking for a development through the variance permit process. This alternative is not recommended, as it does not provide the level of clarity and certainty of the proposed Bylaw amendments. CONCLUSION: Based on the conclusions of the parking analysis for the Arts Centre and surrounding area, the above outlined amendments to the Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw are recommended. As part of the analysis, the parking consultants have concluded that the eastern parking lot is not -5- required based on different peak usage times, available off-street Sparking and local transit service. The proposed amendments will modernize the office and theatre parking standards and enable a 25% reduction on shared parking for multiple-use developments. This approach will provide a greater level of clarity and certainty with regard to parking standards and requirements throughout the municipality, and also benefit other uses such as the location of a day-care facility in conjunction with a church or other place of worship.

MAYOR CLERK Memo To: Christine Carter, Manager of Community Planning From Bob Jones, Chairman MR Downtown Parking Society r Subject: Parking Bylaw No. 6147-2003 NOV U 5 200 Date: November 4, 2003 -. • We support the relaxed use of parking for the Arts Centre and Theatre because of the peak hours of use would be when other facilities are either not in use or at minimum use. Plus this facility is oversized for it's intended use. We do not support using a 25% reduction across the board as only the Arts Centre has a peak usage at a different time than the other neighbouring facilities. • Changing the bylaw to reflect parking stalls per seat instead of stall per m2 is a good idea. How will the future be dealt with? Should the Arts Centre become a different use that peaks at the same time as the other uses? i.e. Court House. The revised parking standard does not consider the future hotel / restaurant site or the Park and Bandstand requirements. The report states that the demand in the town centre is lower than anticipated. It does not mention the tremendous vacancy rates and especially Safeway which impacts this area tremendously. • The mention that an increase in parking can be accommodated by the Parking Society through parking structures is interesting. Exactly who is supposed to pay for this? CONCLUSION • A 25% reduction in parking requirements is NOT supported by us. A reduction in parking spaces on a space per seat ratio is supported by us. This does not open the door for other issues that will be used such as nightclubs, movie theatres, etc. • The proposed surface parking lot is too far away and would not be used anyway. S.' j NOTES TO THE STUDY - FILE NO. 4060-03 Items for your consideration: Page 3 - Study is based on the vacancy rate remaining at its current high rate. Page 11 - Zone C shows its highest use at 55% They hired Impark to try to free up spaces. 55% is not correct. Zone H shows its highest use at 31%. The owner rents additional spaces from the DPS and the neighbouring building because of the lack of parking. 31% is not correct! Page 14 - The parking comparisons are to the Ford Centre at .25 per seat not the James Cowen Theatre at.40/seat. The latter is more similar to our situation. We are not in the middle of Vancouver with thousands of residential units around us. Note - Ford Centre has 72% auto and we have 95%. Note the Ford Centre has paid parking lots all around it. Page 16 - They show the shopping centre as a participant in the shared parking. Maybe they should consult with them before printing the report. Page 22 - Conclusions and Recommendations - We do not feel the Arts Centre will ever be used to within 10% of expectations. However, make sure a bylaw change does not create a problem should a movie theatre wish to locate here. Sm LTTFITT October 10, 2003 Christine Carter, MCIP Manager Community Planning Corporation of the District of Maple Ridge 11995 Haney Place, Maple Ridge, BC V2X 6A9 Dear Ms. Carter: Re: Maple Ridge Off-Street Parking and Loading Amending Bylaw No. 6014-2003 Further to your telephone conversation yesterday with him, Mr. Robert Douglas, Chair of the Chamber of Commerce Transportation Committee, has asked me to write you on his committee's behalf in response to your letter of September 11 requesting the Chamber to examine the above mentioned bylaw and respond to you.

SUBJECT: Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues - Proposed change in mandate and structure EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Council will recall discussions regarding the restructuring of the Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues. The memorandum addresses this subject. RECOMMENDATION(S): That Maple Ridge - Pitt Meadows Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues Amending By-law No. 6156 - 2003 be read a first, and second time and that the rules of order be waived and Maple Ridge - Pitt Meadows Municipal Advisory Conunittee on Accessibility Issues Amending By-law No. 6156 - 2003 be read a third time. DISCUSSION: Background Context: Recently, the Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues went through a review process, focusing on the mandate and quorum issues. All conmiittee members were asked to provide their feedback in a written survey. Upon reviewing the survey results it was discovered that the committee is much broader then the original mandate. Not only is the committee advising council on accessibility issues, but also district departments, community agencies and general public. Through this discussion the conunittee members have made a recommendation to broaden the mandate. Quorum was also identified as an issue. The committee is comprised of 6 organization representatives who due to their own work constraints are not able to attend all meetings on a regular basis. Again the committee members discussed this issue in length and are recommending that quorum is reduced to five and member's at large seats are increased to eight bringing total membership to fifteen. The original By-law 5845 - 1999 is attached for viewing purposes. Desired Outcome(s): That the mandate of the Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues is changed to the following: Section 5 "The purpose of the Committee is to advise councils, and inform and educate the municipal departments, community agencies, and general public on accessibility issues." And that the structure of the Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues is changed to the following: Section 6 "The conmiittee is comprised of fifteen (15) members." Section 9 "Six (6) of the eight (8) members-at-large must be: i) a resident of Maple Ridge; or 17 67/ a resident of Maple Ridge; or employed in Maple Ridge; or be eligible to be on the Municipal Voters List for the District. The seventh (7) and eight (8) members-at-large must be: a resident of Pitt Meadows; or employed in Pitt Meadows; or be eligible to be on the municipal Voters List for the District." Strategic Alignment: N/A Citizen/Customer Implications: Under the proposed mandate for the Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues, citizens/ customers will have a forum in which accessibility concerns/ issues can be discussed. Through this proposed forum, issues can be brought forth to the committee. The committee would then evaluate and make recommendations on the issue. The committee would also be able to provide citizens and customers with support and education regarding accessibility issues. Under the new proposed structure, more citizens will be given an opportunity to participate and provide input regarding community accessibility issues through the increase in membership. It is also important to note that council and committee gives preference to individuals with disabilities, for it is these individuals who will be able to provide the most accurate feedback regarding accessibility within the community. Interdepartmental Implications: The Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues is also able to provide many interdepartmental areas with feedback, resources and education regarding access issues. Again through the committee district departments can request feedback from the committee regarding all issues relating to accessibility, i.e. buildings, curb cuts, transportation, housing etc. Business Plan/Financial Implications: Attached to the report is the 2004 business plan for the Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues Policy Implications: N/A Alternatives: To continue the Municipal Advisory Conirnittee on Accessibility Issues under its current mandate and structure. CONCLUSIONS: The Municipal Advisory Committee on Accessibility Issues requests that Committee of the Whole supports its amendment of its current By-law that establishes the terms and conditions of the committee. The proposed amendments will expand the committee's mandate to more accurately reflect the committee's current activities and projects as well as increase its membership. Prepared 1ii!'

ADVISORY COMMIUEES/ACCESSIBILITY/BUSINESS PLANS/ACC 2004 BUSINESS PLAN.DOC REVISED: November 12, 2003 CORPORATION OF THE DISTRICT OF MAPLE RIDGE TO: Her Worship Mayor Kathy Morse DATE: December 19, 2003 and Members of Council FILE NO: FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: Committee of the Whole SUBJECT: Fire Department Master Plan EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: In early 2003, Municipal Council directed a review of the existing fire service delivery model and asked for advice on what the Fire Department will need to look like in order to serve a growing community. Council direction was specifically to the Fire Chiefs and the GM: Corporate & Financial Services, who then enlisted the help of the Assistant Chiefs and Paid-on- Call fire fighters in developing the plan. This group has spent almost a year, and well over 1000 person hours preparing a 100-page draft Fire Department Master plan. The draft Masterplan has gone through a peer review and was presented to Council at the December 15, 2003 Council/Staff Workshop. Opportunity for public input has been limited to date so we recommend that the plan be presented at a town hail meeting. The comments from the public will be brought to Council at a future Council/Staff Workshop. After considering the comments and if Council determines that the direction of the Masterplan is sound, we will proceed with an assessment of its financial implications. A detailed implementation plan will follow the financial assessment. RECOMMENDATION (S): That Council: Endorse, in principle, the need to evolve the structure of the fire department to a composite model within our financial capacity and, Direct staff to send the Master plan out for public comment. DISCUSSION - - A group consisting of the GM of Corporate & Financial Services, Fire Department Career Staff and Paid-on-Call fire fighters was organised to develop a Fire Department Master plan. The group was tasked with: • Quantifying the fire department's current standard of service. • Researching and-rdeveloping a recommended -level of service - • Identifying the gaps between the current level of service and the recommended service level • Providing recommendations to address the identified gaps in service. DISCUSSION (CONT'D.): Over the past several months, the group has: • Developed a list of core services the department should deliver. • Identified the training requirements to deliver these Core Services. • Researched and developed recommended emergency response standards. • Prepared a recommended frequency of Fire Inspections. • Proposed a list of proactive Public Education Initiatives. • Quantified the statutory requirements for Fire Hall and equipment Maintenance. • Identified specific initiatives aimed at reducing property damage and personal injury as a result of fires. • Identified that significant additional investments in the fire service are required at a time when resources are tight. The Peer Review, the executive summary of which was attached as Appendix 6 to the Masterplan, was very positive. Where possible, the suggestions have been incorporated into the plan and were reflected in the presentation that was made at the December 15 th Council/Staff Workshop. We now recommend that we send the plan out for public comment, which will include a presentation at the February 2, 2004 Town Hall meeting. The results of the public comment process will be brought back to Council, at which time Council may consider directing staff to proceed with the development of financial options. A detailed implemetitalion plan will follow. Prepard by Peter G rootendorst Fire Chief 4 Approvedby: PaulGi1l General Manager of Corporate and Financial Services Concurren/ce: J.L. (Jim) Rule I Chi Administrative Officer - 1 CORPORATION OF THE DISTRICT OF MAPLE RIDGE Her Worship Mayor Kathy Morse and Members of Council Chief Administrative Officer 9-1-1 Administration and Funding DATE: December 18. 2003 FILE NO: ATTN: Committee of the Whole EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: E-Comm is the regional emergency communications centre for southwest British Columbia. As a privately held corporation, founded under the provincial Emergency Communications Corporation Act in 1997, E-Comm has an annual budget of approximately $36 million and a fiscal mandate to "break- even." A 15-member Board of Directors (it can be expanded up to 25 members if new members wish to purchase shares) provides governance to E-Comm. Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows currently share representation and Councillor Jon Harris is our representative At the June GVRD Board Committee meeting, E-Comm staff presented to both the Finance and Corporate and Intergovernmental Committees two proposals on: • The transfer of the 9-1-1 function to E-Comm; and • A shift from property taxed based funding to call answer levy. The GVRD is now asking member municipalities for comment and advice by the end of January 31, 2004. RESOLUTION: THAT Council endorse moving control of the 9-1-1 function from the GVRD to E-Comin; and THAT Council support a Call Answering Levy as the funding source for the 9-1-1 service. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: All 9-1-1 calls placed from phones in the GVRD - both wireline and wireless - are routed through Telus provincial network to the E-Comm building where the greeting operators answer the calls. The calls are then "downstreamed" to 20 different Public Safety Answering Points (PSAP's). Some of these PSAP's are within the E-Comm building, some are in the municipalities. At present, 25% of the calls are downstreamed outside of E-Comm. Since the service started in 1990, the GVRD has assumed the role of custodian of the service, ensuring that the needs of all the participating agencies are addressed. The GVRD also provides 9-1-1 call-answer service to the resort community of Whistler and the Sunshine Coast Regional District. -1- vi M, A copy of the full report to the GVRD from the Corporate and Intergovernmental Committee is attached for your information. Issues for Council to Consider: • Transfer of Responsibility E-Comm's proposal is to consolidate all aspects of the 9-1-1 service in the region under E-Comm only. (See letter in full report.) In order to accomplish this, E-Comm would have to replace the GVRD as the signatory to the Telus 9-1-1 Service Agreement. In addition, E-Comm would need to request that the Province make the necessary regulatory changes to their Act. The GVRD took on the 9-1-1 role when no other organization existed to fulfill this role - this is no longer the case - their role now is largely one of contract administration and funding. E-Comm exists to serve regional emergency needs and now reports to a Board that includes some regional representation. The proposed change would move the control of 9-1-1 to E-Comm's existing Board, and the CRTC. The CRTC through its tariff and audit structure exercise significant. control over 9-1-1 services and their related costs. As such, it may now be appropriate that E-Comm assume the 9-1-1 role in its entirety. • Financial Implications: The transfer of 9-1-1 services directly to E-Comm would complete the services offered by E-Comm, which include 9-1-1 call centre and emergency radio and dispatch systems. The transfer would also remove the 9-1-1 portion of the costs placed on the GVRD municipal levy - a reduction in the levy of approximately 8.5%, with these costs then recovered via telephone bills (see the section on Call Answer Levy - Appendix 1). The annual GVRD budget for the 9-1-1 function, paid through property taxes, is $2.6 million in 2003. This is the estimated contract costs of $2.4 million plus the overall system administration. • Shift from Property Tax Levy to Call Levy: Contract negotiations between the GVRD and E-Comm have been under way for more than three years, but talks have now been suspended pending review of the E-Comm's requests on governance changes and a call-answer levy. While under the negotiation process, E-Comm has indicated that they feel fees should be substantially higher. The estimates they have given are approximately equal to $3.8 million. -E-Comm would require a Call Answer Levy as a funding source as they do not have any tax requisition authority. One method of collecting this could be through phone bills. Without a transfer of 9-1-1 function, the GVRD could introduce a Call-Answer Levy to replace or supplement property tax funding of the-9-1-1 service. - Alternatives: - TflCorporate and Intergovernmental Committee report laid out the following alternatives: - -2- The Board could support E-Comm in its request to transfer the full responsibility for the 9-1-1 function to E-Comm. (This is the recommended alternative.) The Board could continue with its current 9-1-1 function and direct staff to explore the possibility of introducing a Call-Answer Levy on all telephones in the GVRD and report back on the exact amount to be collected monthly with a view to reduce or eliminate funding from property tax. The Board could continue with the existing 9-1-1 governance function using the GVRD as an intermediary with E-Comm and keep the funding structure through property taxation. Negotiations with E-Comm would resume. The GVRD could, at the end of the term of the Telus 9-1-1 service agreement in June. 2004, cease to offer 9-1-1 service. Each municipality would then be free to operate its own call-answer centre at their local police or fire dispatch centre or to negotiate a contract for call-answer services with E-Comm or another agency. Introduction of a call-answer levy would be at the discretion of the municipality. As in 3 above, the GVRD could continue with the existing 9-1-1 governance function using the GVRD as an intermediary; however, if it was felt that the market may offer a better estimate of value for service, the GVRD could consider using another organization to provide a similar type of service. CONCLUSIONS: E-Comm performs the majority of the 9-1-1 functions now, so we recommend they assume full responsibility for the function.

PURPOSE To present a proposal to transfer of the 9-1-1 function and to respond to a request from the Corporate and Intergovernmental Committee for a report on E-Comm and a proposed call answer levy. CONTEXT At the June Board Committee meetings, E-Comm staff presented to both the Finance and Corporate and Intergovernmental Committees two proposals on: (1) the transfer of the 9-1-1 function to F-Comm and; (2) a shift from property taxed based funding to call answer levy. Finance had referred these proposals to the Corporate and Intergovernmental Committee who then requested further information. E- Comm and 9-1-1 F-Comm is-the regional emergency communications centre for southwest -British Columbia. As a privately held corporation, founded under the provincial Emergency Communications Corporation Act in 1997, E-Comm has an annual budget of approximately $36 million and a fiscal mandate to 'break-even'. A 15- member Board of Directors (it can be expanded up to 25 members if new members wish to purc11se shares) provides govemanèeto E-Comm. (see attached Appendix 2 for present composition of the E-Comm Board of Directors). The Greater Vancouver Regional District was given the authority to establish an enhanced 9-1-1 Idephone system through letters patent in 1988. The District'S 9-1i system went into operation July 15, 1990. From 1990 to 1999, the Vancouver Police performed the initial call- answer function for the district through a contract for service. Since June 8, 1999, E-Comm has assumed that role. All 9-1-1 calls placed from phones in the GVRD - both wireline and wireless - are routed through the Telus provincial network to the E-Comm building where the greeting operators answer the calls. The calls are then "downstreamed" to 20 different Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs). Some of these PSAPs are within the E-Comm building, some are in the municipalities. At present, twenty five percent (25%) of the calls are downstreamed outside of E-Cornm. Since the service started in 1990, the GVRD has assumed the role of custodian of the service. ensuring that the needs of all the participating agencies are addressed both inter-agency and with Telus, the other local service providers, the wireless carriers and the regnlatory bodies (CRTC and Industry Canada). The GVRD also provides 9-1-1 call-answer service to the Resort Community of Whistler and the Sunshine Coast Regional District. These services had been provided for several years before the start of E-Comm through agreement with the 9-1-1 Management Committee and approval of the GVRD Board. Transfer of Responsibility E-Comm's proposal is to consolidate all aspects of the 9-1-1 service in the region under E- Comm only (see letter attached). In order to accomplish this, E-Comm would have to replace the GVRD as the signatory to the Telus 9-1-1 Service Agreement. In addition. E-Comm would need to request that the Province make the necessary regulatory changes to their i.ct. E-Comm is seeking the support of the GVRD Board for these purposes. The transfer of 9-1-1 services directly to E-Comm would complete the services offered by L- Comm which include 9-1-1 call centre and emergency radio and dispatch systems. The transfer would also remove the 9-1-1 portion of the costs placed on the GVRD municipal levy - a reduction in the levy of approximately 8.5%, with these costs then recovered via telephone bills (see the following section on Call Answer Levy - Appendix 1). The GVRD took on the 9-1-1 role when no other organization existed to fulfill this role on a regional basis. Today that is no longer the case - our role now is largely one of contract administration and funding. E-Comm exists to serve regional emergency needs and now reports to a Board that includes some regional lepresentation. The proposed change would move the control of 9-1-1 to E- Comm's existing Board, and the CRTC. The CRTC through its tariff and audit structure exercises significant control over 9-1-1 services and their related costs. As such, it may now be appropriate that E-Comm fully assume the 9-1-1 role in its entirety. Shift from Property Tax Levy to Call Levy The annual GVRD budget for the 9-1-1 function, paid through property taxes, is $2.6 million in 2003 (estimated contract costs of $2.4 million as well as the overall syster administration). Contract negotiations with E-Comm have been underway for more than three (3) years, but talks have now been suspended pending review of E-Comrn's requests on governance changes and a Call-Answer Levy. While under the negotiation process E-Comm has indicated that they feel fees should be substantially higher. The estimates they have given are approximately equal to $3.8 million. If E-Comm were to assume full responsibility for the 9-1-1 service it requires a Call Answer Levy as a funding source for 9-1-1 operations since they do not have any tax requisition authority. They indicated that they would need to use the phone bills as a mechanism for collecting all of the money the GVRD now collects through the tax requisition. it should be noted that without a transfer of 9-1-1 function, the GVRD could introduce a Call-Answer Levy to replace or supplement property tax funding of the 9-1-1 service. While GVRD staff are unsure of the actual breakdown for any increase in current costs, a significant portion of the balance would relate to existing infrastructure costs that are allocated to all of E-Comm's service operations. E-Comm has advised that the 9-1-1 function has not been allocated its share of these costs in the same consistent fashion as those of other services and has indicated that any deficit in 9-1-1 funding is paid by its existing shareholders. This (allocation issue) is something that would need to be verified if it was to be included in negotiations into current contracts if the GVRD retains this function (note: these increases have not been considered when setting our 5 year financial targets). And similarly, if E-Comm takes full control of the function these allocations would then be subject to review by the CRTC in establishing a call-answer levy. 3. ALTERNATWES The Board could support E-Comm in its request to transfer the full responsibility for the 9-1-1 function to E-Comm. Control and funding issues would remain with E-Comm, their Board, their members and the CRTC. The property tax bill would be reduced through the transfer of costs to the telephone bill. The Board could continue with it's current 9-1-1 function and direct staff to explore the possibility of introducing a Call-Answer Levy on all telephones in the GVRD and report back on the exact amount to be collected monthly with a view to reduce or eliminate funding from property tax. The Board could continue withthe existing 9-1-1 governance function using the GVRD as am-intermediary with E-Comm and keeping the funding structure through property taxation. Negotiations with E-Comm would resume. The GVR.D could, at the end of the term of the Telus 9-1-1 service agreement in June, 2004, ciase to offer 9-1-1 service. Each municipality would then befree to operate its own call-answer centre at their local police or fire dispatch centre or to negotiate a contract for call-answer services with E-Cornm or another agency. introduction of a call-answer levy would be at the discretion of the municipality. 5) As in 3 above, the GVRD could continue with the existing 9-1-1 governance function using the GVRD as an intermediaiy however if it was felt that the market may offer a better estimate of value for service, the GVRI) could consider using another organization to provide a similar type of service (go out to tender for bids). This could be a local organization or with current technology, the service could even be provided from a distance. E-Comm would also be able to bid. 4. CONCLUSION The key decision here is really the one of who assumes full responsibility for the 9-1-1 function. E-Comm performs the majority of these functions now. Does the E-Comm board along with the C.R.T.0 have sufficient governance of this function such that the GVRD Board can remove itself from these issues? This decision can be argued from several fronts and therefore staff recommends that this issue be referred to member municipalities for their instruction. Appendix 1: Call Answer Levy Appendix 2: E-Comm Board of Directors Appendix 3: Letter from E-Comm to Johnny Canine dated June 26, 2003 APPENDIX 1 A Call-Answer Levy is a monthly fee collected on every monthly telephone bill. The Telus 9-1-1 Tariff allows regional districts to have Telus (and all the other local phone service providers) act as their billing agent by collecting a monthly user fee - a Call-Answer Levy on every phone bill. Other regions of BC that have successfully introduced Call Answer Levy are: Capital Regional District (Victoria) 66 cents Nanaimo 47 cents Powell River 69 cents Nelson 75 cents The GVRD investigated Call-Answer Levy in 1999 during discussions as to whether Access Fees would be placed on the monthly phone bills or paid directly by the GVRD. The Access Fee is the amount payable to Telus for the telephone lines in their provincial 9-1-1 network and use of the customer records database and is separate and distinct from a Call-Answer Levy. When the GVRD did preliminary calculations in 1999, the amount of a Call-Answer Levy was estimated to be approximately 15 cents per phone line per month. Since that time the CRTC has allowed call- answer levies to also be collected from some enhanced wireless phone subscribers and the number of land lines has increased so the monthly rate today would be lower per line if costs had remained the same. The GVRD did not pursue the levy in 1999, primarily because the collection fee paid to Telus (in addition to the per line fee) was 7 cents per line, but did elect to move the 9-1-1 system Access Fee on to the monthly phone bills. By definition, the Call-Answer Levy must be specific to the call-answer function. Once the amount is agreed to by all the parties a submission is made to the CRTC for approval prior to the actual introduction of the charge on monthly phone bills. The entity introducing the Call-Answer Levy then has to si2n collection agreements with each local service provider. The GVRD worked with the CRTC Industry Steering Committee, through the Emergency Services (9-1-1) Working Group to develop the contracts used in all regional districts in B.C.; only minor modifications would be required to allow E- Comm to use these documents. Should the Board of the Regional District agree to the introduction of a Call-Answer Levy, the tariff allows the carriers to collect an additional 7 cents per month on every phone bill for performing the service. Each of the local phone subscribers' bills would then have three lines for 9-1-1 service charges, plus applicable taxes, each month: - 9-1-1 monthly Access Fee payable to Telus (currently in place) - 9-1-1 Call-Answer Levy (new charge) - 9-1-1 billing and collection fee payable to the local service provider (new charge) E-Comm states th3would be looking for a Call-Answer Levy set somewhere in the-range of 25 cents to fully fund the current 9-1-1 operations. As such, E-Comm estimates show phone bills for subscribers having the following monthly charges: 16 cent - 94-1 monthly Access Fee payablëTô Telus/Other Providers 25 cent - 9-1-1 Call-Answer Levy payable to the GVRD or E-Comm 7 cent - 9-1-1 billing and collection fee payable to the local service provider total 48 cent monthly charge plus applicable taxes - - Using the above estimate, the 25 cent call answer levy would generate approximately $4 million annually. The 7 cent billing fee payable to service providers for billing purposes would be approximately S 1 NI annually. The 16 cent fee is already in place and would not change.

Yours truly, •1 ( - —& Ken Shymanski President & Chfef Executive Officer Helping to Save Lives and Protect Property -7 CORPORATION OF THE DISTRICT OF MAPLE RIDGE TO: Her Worship Mayor Kathy Morse DATE: December 22, 2003 and Members of Council FILE NO: FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: COW SUBJECT: Arts Centre Liquor License EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Liquor Control and Licensing Branch has received an application from the Ridge Meadows Community Arts Council for a liquor primary license to be located at The Act - Maple Ridge Arts Centre and Theatre. The license will allow the sale of alcohol in the upper and lower level lobby areas and the studio/multi-purpose room. The hours of operation will be Monday to Sunday 12 noon till 1:00 a.m. One of the considerations used by the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch in reviewing the application is a resolution from the local government. The local government is asked to consider the application in terms of the potential community impacts and forward a resolution in support of or against the issuance of a license. Local government may also submit a resolution indicating they are not interested in providing comment. RECOMMENDATION(S): Whereas the District of Maple Ridge Council considered a staff report regarding an application for a liquor primary license for The Act - Maple Ridge Arts Centre and Theatre located at 11944 Haney Place; and Whereas letters were sent to over 260 surrounding businesses and residents requesting comment on the proposal and no responses were received; and Whereas the R.C.M.P. and Bylaw Enforcement Department are satisfied the types of events held at the facility should not generate any negative community impacts; THEREFOR BE IT RESOLVED THAT the District of Maple Ridge Council supports the issuance of a liquor primary license for The Act - Maple Ridge Arts Centre and Theatre. DISCUSSION - - a) Background Context: The Ridge Meadows Community Arts Council has applied to the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch for a liquor primary license to be located at The Act - Maple Ridge Arts Centre and Theatre. The license will allow the serving of alcohol in the lobby areas and multi purpose room between the hours of 12 noon to 1 a.m. Monday to Sunday. The license will be utilised during performances in the theatre and for special occasions when the multi purpose room is in use. Since the opening of The Act a number of months ago, the Ridge Meadows Community Arts Council has been required to apply for special occasion liquor licenses for the various events held in the facility. During the events, there have been no reports of any concerns related to the service Y51 of alcohol. The issuance of a primary liquor license will allow the facility to serve alcohol during the various events without having to secure a special occasion license. The LCLB has requested a resolution from Council commenting on the application in terms of community impacts which may occur as a result of the establishment of a liquor primary license at this particular location. Part of that process requires Council to gather the views of the residents/businesses who may be affected by the establishment of a liquor primary license in their neighbourhood. A letter was sent to 260 owners/residents in the immediate area requesting comments on the proposal. Staff did not receive any responses from the mail out. Both the RCMP and the Bylaw Enforcement Department are of the opinion that the licensing of this facility should have minimal impact on any neighbourhood or community impacts in terms of noise generation, unruly behaviour or parking congestion. b) Alternatives: Council may submit a resolution to the LCLB not in support of the application or a resolution indicating Council is not interested in commenting on the application. CONCLUSIONS: Given the nature of the application and the types of events to be held in the facility, staff are recommending that Council support the application. / -; 7- W~ ~ , ZC:; Prepared by: Brock McDonald Director, Business Licenses, Permits & Bylaws /J.

(Jim) Rule Chief Administrative Officer BM:bm Ir CORPORATION OF THE DISTRICT OF MAPLE RIDGE TO: Her Worship Mayor Kathy Morse DATE: January 5, 2004 and Members of Council FILE NO: FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: C.O.W. SUBJECT: Maple Ridge Recreation Facility Fees Amending Bylaw No. 6189-2003 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Leisure Centre admission fees normally are reviewed on an annual basis. There has not been any increase in the fees for two years since the opening of the expansion. Staff has spent numerous hours looking at the admission fee structure based on the new design of the Leisure Centre and based on the experiences gained during the first two years of operation. As always a comparative study of other facility rates in the Region was done as attached Schedule "A". RECOMMENDATION(S): That Maple Ridge Recreation Facility Fees Amending Bylaw No. 6189-2003 be read a first, and second time and that the rules of order be waived and Maple Ridge Recreation Facility Fees Amending Bylaw No. 6189-2003 be read a third time. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: H With over two years of operation "under our belt" Leisure Centre staff and the public has provided feedback that relates to a number of issues around traffic flow, use & abuse of wristbands and people "beating the system" for admissions. What follows is a summary of these issues with suggested solutions (some of which pertain to the fee structure) and some rational for the solutions. Issues: Traffic Flow - some changes are necessary to how we admit people into the building because some patrons are entering the facility without checking in or paying. As a customer service we had allowed patrons to enter the building and if there was a line up go directly upstairs and have their membership card "swiped" at a computer upstairs. This also meant that anyone could just walk upstairs, grab a wristband-out of the garbage and-beat the--system-. We-have--recently--taken- the computer out and put a physical barrier in place in the lobby, which means that every customer haow been checking in at the front desk. This temporary experimenr(before we try to put a permanent barrier in) has "caught" many people without passes or cash. 2. Wristbands - wristbands have been an issue since the day we introduced them. People do not like wearing theni they save them up or hoard thèii so when they sneak in they have every colour to show you when you ask to prove they have paid; they are pulled out of the garbage and re - used (as mentioned above) and the ones that don't make it into the garbage cans are a continual litter problem. They are also very costly to purchase. In 2003 we paid approx. $20,000.00 in wristbands costs! 3. Family Definition - in an attempt to encourage more use of the facility and not be biased against same sex couples we changed the admissions definition of family to be too liberal as follows: "Family is defined as all extended members ofa family, (all generations) including those related by blood, marriage/common - law or adoption to a maximum of 7 persons." Part of the reason for this change, as mentioned, was to take away the embarrassing questions from the front desk. "Is this your Mom"? "Is this your Spouse"? There was also no age restriction. The issue here has been numbers of adult patrons getting together, 7 of them, calling themselves a family and getting the cheapest rate possible to use the facility. Some patrons have even walked around the weight room asking other patrons to join up with them as a "family" and they only need to pay $10.00 / month. Recommended Solutions: • Every customer will now check in at the front desk. This will greatly eliminate the "cheaters" from entering the facility. • If staff believe that the above is making a difference then we plan to eliminate the wrist bands altogether as of February 1, 2004. This will save a lot of money and decrease the litter in the building particularly in the pool change rooms. • When we eliminate wristbands we now have no way of determining whether patrons are using the upstairs/ the pool or everything therefor we would like to eliminate the 2 Tier admissions system and go back to one admission price (as listed below) for the building. This will mean no increase in price for the "All Inclusive" and a small increase for the "Swimmers/Weight room only" group. However in a review of admissions purchased for this year: 1 Month passes 66% were All Inclusive, 3 Month passes 72% were All Inclusive & 6 Month passes 87% were All Inclusive. • Change the Family Definition from: "Family is defined as all extended members of a family, (all generations) including those related by blood, marriage/common - law or adoption to a maximum of 7 persons." to: "Fanzily is defined as two adults related by blood, marriage or common-law with their own children under the age of 19." This will eliminate the seven adults from getting together as the definition now includes children. We also recommend that there be no limit to the number of children as the restriction "to a maximum of 7" eliminated the large family with over 5 children. It should be noted that fee increases from the pool / weight room only to the All Inclusive being the only fee is in the range of 10% - 14% however this is the first increase in over 3 years. Examples of this are an adult rate on the 1/3/6 month memberships would increase $5.00! month and on a senior pass it would be $3.00 / month. Also of note is that We have a very good Participation program which is available to anyone in the community that can get them up to 75% reduced admission rates. Desired Outcome(s): To streamline the admission system. Strategic Alignment: Financial Management d) Citizen/Customer Implications: The changes will allow staff to focus on customer service, improve the efficiencies and contribute to maintenance and cleanliness of the facility. Interdepartmental Implications: N/A Business Plan/Financial Implications: Our new rates are very competitive with the neighboring facilities when comparing the size of the facilities and the services available. They fall in the "Mid Range" as not the most expensive nor the least expensive. Policy Implications: N/A Alternatives: To make no changes and leave systems and fees as is. CONCLUSIONS: Since the renovation to the Leisure Centre, customers have enjoyed improved amenities, equipment and service. With the start up and some time to work through all the issues of a newly renovated facility, staff did not have an opportunity to review the fees which would normally be done on an annual basis. Staff feel that these changes will enhance our operation and are comfortable that these increases are justifiable. From this point forward, annual reviews will now be completed.
