Meeting in any way, the meeting will be stopped and that person's behavior will be
reprimanded.

QUESTION PERIOD
The purpose of the Question Period is to provide the public with an opportunity to
ask questions of Council on items that are of concern to them, with the exception of
Public Hearing by-laws which have not yet reached conclusion.
Council will not tolerate any derogatory remarks directed at Council or staff
members.
Each person will be permitted 2 minutes to ask their question (a second
opportunity is permitted if no one else is sitting in the chairs in front of the podium).
Questions must be directed to the Chair of the meeting and not to individual
members of Council. The total Question Period is limited to 15 minutes.
Council reserves the right to defer responding to a question in order to obtain the
information required to provide a complete and accurate response.
Other opportunities are available to address Council including public hearings,
delegations and community forum. The public may also make their views known to
Council by writing or via email and by attending open houses, workshops and
information meetings. Serving on an Advisory Committee is an excellent way to
have a voice in the future of this community.

SUBJECT: Final Reading:
Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6699-2009
Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6700-2009
23300 and 23400136 Avenue
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Bylaws 6699-2009 and 6700-2009 have been considered by Council and at Public Hearing and
subsequently were granted Third Reading on February 23, 2010 and granted First Extension on
February 22, 2011. The applicant has requested that Final Reading be granted. The purpose of the
rezoning is to permit future subdivision of 21 single family lots, zoned RS-1b (One Family Urban -Medium
Density Residential).
RECOMMENDATION:
That Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6699-2009 be adopted; and
That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6700-2009 be adopted.
DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context:
Council considered this rezoning application at a Public Hearing held on February 16, 2010. On
February 23, 2010 Council granted Third Reading to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending
Bylaw No. 6699-2009 and Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6700-2009 with the stipulation that
the following conditions be addressed:
i. Registration of a Rezoning Servicing Agreement as a Restrictive Covenant and receipt of the
deposit of security as outlined in the Agreement;
ii. Amendment to Schedule "C" of the Official Community Plan;
iii. Amendment to Part VI A of the Silver Valley Figure 2 - Land Use Plan and Part VI A of the
Silver Valley Figure 4 -Trails/Open Space Plan and Part VI A of the Silver Valley Figure 5 -
Transportation network Plan;
iv. Registration of a Geotechnical Report as a Restrictive Covenant which addresses the
suitability of the site for the proposed development;
V. Registration of a Restrictive Covenant which addresses recommendations to mitigate wild
fire hazards for the proposed development;
vi. Registration of a No -Build/ No -Disturb Restrictive Covenant on the rear yards of all the newly
created lots, including all the lands on the eastern edge forming part of Lot 21;
vii. A Statutory right of way plan and agreement for the Equestrian/Horse Trail must be
registered at the Land Title Office:
viii. Consolidation of the development site;
ix. Road dedication as required;
X. Park dedication as required, including construction of walkways and Equestrian/ Horse Trail.
1001
The following applies to the above:
1. Items i, iv, v, viii, ix and x have been completed and are being registered in the Land Title Office, as
per the Letter of Undertaking from the applicant's solicitor;
2. Items ii and iii above will be completed after final approval of this application;
3. Item vi above, has been included as a condition of the Preliminary Letter of Approval and will be
executed concurrently with the subdivision plan as the new legal descriptions will be created only
after final approval of the Subdivision Plan;
4. Item vii has been executed;
b) Additional Information:
The property recently changed hands and the new developer had to seek extension as the one year
time limit after Third Reading was up. Council granted First Extension with the same conditions listed
above. The applicant is seeking variances for front yard setbacks and the 1361h Avenue section north of
subject site remaining a closed road and the Development Variance Permit report is being considered
by Council at this Council Meeting.
Item v above is an interim measure to deal with developments within the wild fire interface area with an
intention of not delaying any projects until adoption of the Wild Fire Development Permit Guidelines.
CONCLUSION:
The proposal is for a single family neighbourhood surrounded by conservation area and good pedestrian
connectivity through the multi -purpose trail. It promises adequate restoration and enhancement works
including dedication of 60% of the land as "park" and a north -south Equestrian Trail connection from
the property on the south of subject sites. Some variances are proposed.
As the applicant has met Council's conditions, it is recommended that Final Reading be given to Maple
Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6699-2009 and Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw
No. 6700-2009.

Background

3.76 HA (9.29 acres)
112 Avenue
Urban
On October 5, 2010 an application was submitted, proposing a rezoning from RS-3 (One Family Rural
Residential) Zone to R-2 (Urban Residential District) Zone to allow for future subdivision. Staff
Report dated January 4, 2011 was prepared for Committee of the Whole on January 10, 2011. The
staff recommendation from that report was "(t)hat Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6770 - 2010 not be
given First Reading". At the Council Meeting on January 11, 2011 the application was deferred back
to staff. Since that time the applicant has revised their proposal and reduced the overall density of
the development.
The applicant now proposes to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential)
to RS-1b (Urban Residential District) Zone and R-1 (Residential District) Zone to permit subdivision
into 55 residential properties. The RS-1b (Urban Residential District) are proposed to be located
along 112th Avenue and to the rear of the subject property. The RS- 1b lots to the rear of the
property will act as a larger lot buffer to the agriculatural land to the north of the subject site. There
is also parkland proposed alongthe northern boundary of the property, this will provide an additional
buffer to the agricultural land.
At this time the application has been assessed to determine its compliance with the Official
Community Plan and provide a land use assessment only. If this application proceeds, a detailed
review and comments will need to be made once full application packages have been received. A
more detailed analysis and a further report will be required prior to Second Reading, if applicable.
Such assessment may impact proposed lot boundaries and yields, Official Community Plan
designations and Bylaw particulars, and may require application for further development permits.
c) Planning Analysis:
Official Communily Plan:
The property is designated Low -Medium Density Residential on the Albion Area Plan. The current
proposal will require an Official Community Plan amendment to permit the R-1 (Residential District)
Zone on the subject property. An OCP amendment will also be required for the parkland proposed
for environmental conservation and agricultural buffer purposes. The OCP amendments will be the
subject of a future report to Council.
-2-
Zoning Bylaw:
The current application proposes to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One Family Rural
Residential) to RS-1b (Urban Residential District) Zone and R-1 (Residential District) Zone to permit
subdivision into 55 residential properties.
Any variations from the requirements of the proposed zone will require a Development Variance
Permit application.
Development Permits:
Pursuant to Section 8.9 of the Official Community Plan, a Watercourse Protection Development
Permit application is required for all developments and building permits within 50 metres of the top
of bank of all watercourses and wetlands. The purpose of the Watercourse Protection Development
Permit is to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and
riparian areas.
Development Information Meeting:
A Development Information Meeting is required for this application. Prior to Second Reading the
applicant is required to host a Development Information Meeting in accordance with Council Policy
6.20.
d) Interdepartmental Implications:
In order to advance the current application, after First Reading, comments and input, will be sought
from the various internal departments and external agencies listed below:
a) Engineering Department;
b) Operations Department;
c) Fire Department;
d) Parks Department;
e) School District;
The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become necessary, as the application
progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above.
A preliminary review of the servicing requirements has been undertaken by the Engineering
Department. Through this review it has been noted that the applicant may be required to carry out
servicing upgrades to the existing sewer and water systems along 240th Street and to the water
main along 112th Avenue. The Engineering Department will provide further review of servicing
through the formal referral process between First and Second Reading.
e) Development Applications:
In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by
Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 - 1999 as amended:
1. An Official Community Plan Application (Schedule A);
2. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule B or Schedule C);
3. Watercourse Protection Development Permit Application (Schedule F);
4. Complete Subdivision Application
-3-
The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the
assessment of the proposal progresses.
CONCLUSION:
The development proposal is not in compliance with the Official Community Plan, however,
justification has been provided to support an Official Community Plan amendment. It is, therefore,
recommended that Council grant First Reading subject to additional information being provided and
assessed prior to Second Reading.
In respect of Section 879 of the Local Government Act for consultation during an Official Community
Plan amendment, it is recommended that no additional consultation is required beyond the early
posting of the proposed OCP amendments on the District's website, together with an Invitation to the
public to comment. The application will be presented at Public Hearing should it be advanced to
Second Reading. It is, therefore recommended that Council not require any additional consultation.
The proposed layout has not been reviewed in relation to the relevant bylaws and regulations
governing subdivision applications. Any subdivision layout provided is strictly preliminary and must
be approved by the District of Maple Ridge's Approving Officer.

Companion Applications:
RZ/022/09; SD/022/09 and DP/022/09 (Watercourse

Requested Variance:
A 2.0m front yard setback variance for all the
proposed 21 lots and to retain 136th Avenue
segment north of the subject sites in the
current condition.
b) Project Description:
The subject site consists of two vacant lots located south of 136th Avenue in the Silver Valley area and
will require consolidation. The North Alouette River flows along the western boundary of the property.
21 single family lots in the RS-1b (One Family Urban Residential -Medium Density) zone have been
proposed which are fairly deeper lots than the minimum lot depth required in the RS-1b (One Family
Urban Residential -Medium Density) zone. Access to the proposed single family subdivision is through
Balsam Street to be extended through a subdivision proposed on the south of subject sites.
In general the site slopes down from east to west with steeper grades on the eastern and western
edges of the property. Due to these steep sloped areas the rear yards of all the lots will have a "No -
Build & No -Disturb Covenant" as a condition of the final Subdivision Plan approval. The No-Build/No-
Disturb covenanted area is for slope protection and will be fenced off with post and rail fence and
appropriate signage, so that the future owners are aware of it. This is the reason why the applicant is
seeking a variance to the front yard setback i.e. to be able to push the building envelope with a smaller
front yard and a usable backyard in between the house and the covenanted area.
Any rezoning application is expected to upgrade all off -site servicing including roads. Particular to the
location of this site, the 136th Avenue segment north of the subject sites is anticipated to remain an
unopened road due to the existing excessive grades. Hence the applicant has requested a variance to
retain 136th Avenue in the current condition (with no upgrades).
c) Planning Analysis:
Official Community Plan:
The development site is within the Silver Valley Area Plan which forms part of the Official Community
Plan. The development of Silver Valley is based on principles associated with achieving a complete
community with good pedestrian linkages. Within the Silver Valley Area Plan, the subject site falls
outside the Forest Hamlet (east of 236th Street) and is designated "Conservation", "Low Density
2-
Residential" and "Open Space". The proposed single family designation lines up with the Official
Community Plan designation and the proposal in general must comply with the Silver Valley Area Plan
policies. The conservation boundary will be adjusted after "park" dedication occurs through an
amendmentto the Schedule C and the Silver valley Area Plan figures, of the Official Community Plan.
d) Citizen/Customer Implications:
The mail -outs to inform residents of the proposed variances were mailed 10 days prior to the
anticipated Council Meeting date. Concerned residents in the neighbourhood have had the opportunity
to voice their opinions.
e) Interdepartmental Implications:
Engineering Department:
The Engineering Department has no concerns with the proposed variance.
Building Department:
The Building Department has no concerns with the proposed variance.
f) Alternatives:
The new developer is working towards satisfying all the conditions of a Watercourse Protection
Development Permit and the Preliminary Letter of Approval conditions for the proposed subdivision into
21 single family lots zoned RS-1b (One Family Urban Residential -Medium Density) through SD/022/09.
Council approval is required for the Development Variance Permit as presented in this report prior to a
Subdivision Plan being approved by the Approving Officer.
CONCLUSIONS:
The proposed variances do not negatively impact the neighbourhood. The variances are in support of a
21 lot single family subdivision surrounded by conservation area and good pedestrian connectivity
through the multi -purpose trail. It promises adequate restoration and enhancement works including
dedication of 60% of the land as "park" and a north -south Equestrian Trail connection from the property
on the south of subject sites. It fits well with the neighbourhood and complies with the policies of the
Silver Valley Area Plan.

That pursuant to Council's policy regarding 5% Parkland Dedication or payment in lieu, be it
resolved that the applicant/ developer of land proposed for subdivision at the above stated
legal address (no civic address), under application SD/081/06, shall pay to the District of
Maple Ridge an amount that is not less than $ 39,200.00.
DISCUSSION:
Policy 8 of the Official Community Plan states that in order to preserve watercourses, an
owner of land being subdivided shall, at the option of Council either:
1. Provide park land or an amount not to exceed 5% of the land being subdivided in a
location acceptable to Council; or
2. Pay to the Municipality an amount that equals the market value of up to 5% of the land
that may be required for parkland purposes.
Where there is a significant watercourse and the District has the ability to include ravines and
watercourse protection areas into the public realm that area is dedicated Park. These areas
provide for large vegetated areas in urban neighbourhoods that provide corridors for wildlife
and passive park areas for residents.
Where there is either no watercourse or the watercourse is deemed insignificant, 5% of the
market value of the land is paid to the District. These funds are placed into a special
1103
Parkland Acquisition Reserve Fund, which enables the District to purchase areas deemed
important for habitat protection but where the ability to achieve parkland through
development is limited, such as the Blaney Bog.
In this particular instance there is no watercourse present and it is, therefore, recommended
that money in lieu of parkland dedication be provided.
In keeping with past practice, the District has an appraisal for the 5% market value of the
development site as District is the owner of the land currently. This appraisal is based on
zoned but not serviced land. An opinion from an appraisal firm, Equity Valuation and
Consulting Services Ltd. hired by the District (as we are the owners of the land under
consideration) has stated that the market value of the land is $784,000.00, which indicates
that the 5% value of this property is $39,200.00. This 5% value of the property; off -site
servicing costs and the applicable Development Cost Charges, will be the responsibility of the
developer for both the subdivision applications (SD/019/10 and SD/081/06) that will
execute the land exchange.
CONCLUSION:
As there are no watercourses on the property it is recommended that Council require payment
in lieu of parkland dedication as prescribed in the appraisal

SUBJECT: Excess Capacity/Extended Services Agreement LC 142/10
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The developer of a property at 21434 121 Avenue was required to extend the storm sewer along
121 Avenue to serve the development. fart of the development servicing is considered to be excess
or extended servicing in accordance with the Local Government Act. The extended servicing benefits
adjacent properties. Latecomer Agreement LC 142/10 provides the municipality's assessment of
the attribution of the costs of the excess or extended servicing to the benefiting lands.
RECOMMENDATION:
That with respect to the development of lands located at 21434 121 Avenue, be it resolved:
1. That the cost to provide the excess or extended services is, in whole or in part, excessive
to the municipality and that the cost to provide these services shall be paid by the owner
of the land being developed, and
2. That Latecomer Charges be imposed for such excess or extended services on the parcels
and in the amounts as set out in the staff report dated March 7, 2011, and further
3. That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal Excess Capacity Latecomer
Agreement LC 142/10 with the developer of the said lands.
DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context:
The attached map identifies the lands which are involved in the development and those
which will benefit from the excess or extended services. The cost breakdown for each
excess or extended service is shown on attached Schedule A.
In addition, a copy of Excess Capacity Latecomer Agreement LC 142/10 is also attached for
information purposes. 1104
104
b) Strategic Alignment:
Administration of excess or extended services legislation complies with the Smart Managed
Growth element of the Corporate Strategic Plan. The administration procedure supports the
requirement for a developer to construct municipal infrastructure in support of land
development and recognizes that the infrastructure may provide benefit to other land.
c) Policy Implications:
Part 26, Division 11, of the Local Government Act provides that where a developer pays all
or part of the cost of excess or extended services, the municipality shall determine the
proportion of the cost of the service which constitutes excess or extended service and
determine the proportion of the cost of the service to be attributed to parcels of land which
the municipality considers will benefit from the service. Latecomer Agreement LC 142/10
will provide such determination.
CONCLUSION:
A developer has provided certain services in support of development of his property. Some of the
services benefit adjacent lands. Therefore, it is appropriate to impose Latecomer Charges on the
benefitting lands. Latecomer Agreement LC 142/10 summarizes the municipality's determination of
benefitting lands and cost attribution and also establishes the term over which such Latecomer
Charges will be applied.

Award of Contract No. ITT-EN10-199
Kanaka Creek Watermain at Lougheed Highway
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Kanaka Creek Watermain at Lougheed Highway Project, located on the south side of Lougheed
Highway between the Haney Bypass and Tamarack Lane, is in the District's approved 2009 Capital
Program. The project objective is to replace the existing aerial watermain crossing at Kanaka Creek.
The existing timber support piles have deteriorated and one pile has been dislodged due to high
creek flows. There is concern that over time the watermain could be comprimised.
Four tender were received on January 18, 2011 for the construction contract which includes
directional drilling approximately 110 meters of 450 mm diameter watermain under Kanaka Creek.
The low compliant tender of $281,295.00 (excluding taxes) was submitted by Directional Mining and
Drilling Ltd. Their tender has been checked and evaluated by Staff and the design consultant.
Council approval to award the contract is required in order for the work to proceed and be completed
before spring runoffs in the creek.
RECOMMENDATION:
THAT Contract ITT-EN10-199, Kanaka Creek Watermain at Lougheed Highway, be awarded to
Directional Mining and Drilling Ltd. in the amount of $281,295.00 and
THAT the Corporate Officer be authorized to execute the contract.
DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context:
The existing watermain on the south side of Lougheed Highway between the Haney Bypass
and Tamarack Lane crosses over Kanaka Creek and is supported on wooden piles. One of
the piles was dislodged during a spring runoff in the creek. There is concern that the other
piles supporting the watermain could become affected, resulting in the compromise of the
watermain. A design to replace the existing watermain by directional drilling under Kanaka
Creek was completed by Paragon Engineering Ltd. in December, 2010. The construction
contract was tendered and closed on January 18, 2011. 1105
105
Tender results
Four tenders were received and opened in public, and are listed below from lowest to highest
price.
Tender Price(excluding taxes
Directional Mining and Drilling Ltd. $281,295.00
Tritech Group Ltd. $281,951.77
Sandpiper Contracting LLP $307,150.00
Bel Contracting Ltd. $328,930.00
Paragon Engineering Ltd. has reviewed the tenders, concluded that Directional Mining and
Drilling Ltd. is qualified to do the work, and recommended that the contract be awarded to
them. Staff have also checked the tenders and concur with the recommendation.
b) Desired Outcome
It is desirable to award the contract and construct the Kanaka Creek watermain replacement
before spring runoffs in the creek.
c) Strategic Alignment:
Replacement of the Kanaka Creek watermain crossing will ensure reliability and capacity of
the water network servicing the River Road industrial area east of the Haney Bypass. This is
in alignment with the strategic plan.
d) Citizens/Customer Implications:
Construction will commence soon after the project is awarded and attempts will be made to
minimize the impact to everyday traffic, residents, and businesses in the neighborhood.
e) Interdepartmental Implications:
The Operations Department has provided input during the design stage.
The construction of the works will be coordinated with the Operations Department including
the existing water main tie-in.
District inspectors will provide regular inspection of the works.
f) Business Plan/Financial Implications:
There is sufficient funding in the approved Capital Budget for the project. This includes
$220,000 from Capital Project LTC No. 2166 and $228,000 from Capital Project LTC No.
1270 both funded from the water utility.
CONCLUSIONS:
The tender price of $281,295.00 excluding taxes, by Directional Mining and Drilling Ltd. for the
Kanaka Creek Watermain at Lougheed Highway Project is the lowest tendered price. Council
approval to award the work to Directional Mining and Drilling Ltd. is recommended.

Award of Contract for Legal Services
Committee of the Whole
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
DATE: March i, 2011
9I1a►[9Ad►ZLINK
The District contracts for legal services for labour law and municipal law with Harris and Co and
Young Anderson have concluded and a competitive process was undertaken to award new contracts
for those services. Nine firms submitted proposals to provide one or both of those services. Staff
analyzed the submissions based on a 12 point criterion. Three firms were interviewed: Young
Anderson for municipal law services; Heenan Blaikie for labour law services; and Bull Housser
Tupper for labour and municipal law services. Staff is recommending that five year contracts, with
provision for an additional five years at the sole discretion of .the District, be awarded to Heenan
Blaikie for provision of labour law services and to Young Anderson for provision of municipal law
services.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and execute contract s for provision of labour law
services with Heenan, Blaikie and for provision of municipal law services with Young Anderson for a
five year term with provision for an additional five years at the sole discretion of the District.
DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context:
The District of Maple Ridge contracts out its requirements for legal services. In November
2010 a Request for Proposals was issued for provision of those services for the District's
labour law and municipal law services. Of the nine firms who submitted proposals, three
were short listed and interviewed. it is recommended that contracts be awarded to Heenan,
Blaikie and Young Anderson. Over the last couple of years, the District has occasionally used
Heenan Blaikie for "second opinions" and other specific questions on labour law matters.
Young Anderson is well-known to the District and have provided legal services to the
corporation for many years. Their rates and services compared favourably with the other
proponents.
1131
Page 1 of 2
b) Business Plan/Financial Implications:
The rates of Heenan Blaikie and Young Anderson are in line with the budget for legal
services. Both firms will be providing staff with seminar opportunities and regular updates on
changes in the law.
c) Alternatives:
The District could provide in-house legal services through a new staff position. This is not
recommended as it is not likely to eliminate the requirement to outsource some of our legal
requirements and such a position is not contemplated in the 2011-2015 Business Plan.
CONCLUSIONS:
Awarding contracts to Heenan Blaikie and You ng Anderson will enable the District to obtain legal
advice from two very reputable firms. Awarding of contracts will not, however, preclude the District
from obtaining advice from other firms on matters beyond their expertise.

MEETING:
District of Maple Ridge

and Members of Council
Chief Administrative Officer
23711-132 Ave
C.O.W.
DATE: March 7, 2011
FILE NO:
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The District recently received an inquiry from a developer regarding the northern portion of the land
at 23711- 132 Ave, (Plan number 48925) which is currently identified in the OCP as Neighborhood
Park. The District Property and Risk Manager has attempted to purchase the land from the current
owner in the past without success.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
That the OCP be amended to remove the neighborhood park designation from the northern portion
of the property at 23711 132 Ave, and that southern portion of the neighboring parcel located at
23725 -- 132 Ave, which is already owned by the District, be designated as neighborhood park.
a) Background Context:
Previous attempts to acquire the portion of land identified in the OCP as Neighborhood Park
have not been successful, and it is unknown when the property may become available for
this purpose.
The southern portion of the neighboring property to the East, is considered by staff to be
more desirable as a neighborhood park site as it offers considerably more access for the
residents of the area, and would not require significant tree removal to develop the park.
The site can currently be accessed from the south off 132 Ave, as well as a public right of
way access located on 237 A St. A future trail access could also be established from 133 Ave
to the north, as this portion of the land is fairly heavily treed and will be retained for
conservation.
b) Desired Outcome:
To provide a neighborhood meeting and play space for the residents of Silver Valley, in a
timely manner, as it is unknown when the current owner will be willing to sell the previously
identified site.
c) Strategic Alignment:
Developing parks for the current and future residents of Silver Valley is a priority for staff as
some residents in the area have been there for a few years now without the benefit of a
neighborhood park.
1151
Page 1 of 2
This park development will still be consistent with the desired walking distance for
neighborhood parks in the Silver Valley Plan as well as being more accessible to a greater
number of residents.
d) Citizen/Customer Implications:
A neighborhood park process will need to be conducted with the residents in the area to
determine what the desired park amenities should be for this proposed park.
e) Interdepartmental Implications:
Consultation with the planning department to prepare the amendment to the OCP land use
designations for the properties noted above.
f) Business Plan/Financial Implications:
The DCC funds identified in the long term capital plan for the acquisition of the park land at
23711 132 Ave can be re assigned to other future projects indentified in the DCC bylaw.
g) Policy Implications:
Recommend OCP amendment
h) Alternatives:
The alternative in this case would be to wait until we have a willing seller, in order to acquire
the previously identified property for this neighborhood park development.
CONCLUSIONS:
It is the recommendation of the Property Managements Committee that this park site re designation
be considered by Council and is fully supported by Parks and Leisure Services Staff.
