District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: July 10, 2012 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2011-065-RZ FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council SUBJECT: Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6844–2011 24426 102 Avenue EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: At the June 26, 2012 Council meeting, Council gave consideration to granting Third Reading, following the Public Hearing on June 19, 2012, to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6844-2011 to permit a residential subdivision of approximately 30 R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District) lots. The Council decision was to defer the application pending discussion with the District Solicitor and the applicant. The specific resolution was as follows: “That Bylaw No. 6844–2011 be deferred; That staff be directed to obtain a legal opinion and enter into discussions pertaining to density with the proponent; and further That Bylaw No. 6844-2011 be brought back for discussion at the July 10, 2012 Council Meeting.” RECOMMENDATION: That Bylaw No. 6844-2011 be granted third reading. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: At the June 26, 2012 Council Meeting, there was discussion regarding the size of the proposed R -3 (Special Amenity Residential District) lots adjacent to the Lower Jackson property, with particular concern that the width of the easterly bank of lots was too narrow (Lots 10 – 21 in Appendix A). The Council resolution was to defer Third Reading of the Zone Amending Bylaw to enable a discussion with the District Solicitor and applicant regarding an increase in lot width and resulting reduction in the density for those lots. b) Update Following the Council meeting, staff discussed the issue with the District Solicitor who confirmed that Section 894 of the Local Government Act provides for a Council to “alter and adopt the bylaw provided that the alteration does not, without the owners consent, decrease the density”. It was also noted that no further notice or hearing is required. Staff has also discussed the application with the property owner, who has submitted a revised lot layout proposing a reduction in the number of lots adjacent to the Lower Jackson property. The revised layout is attached as Appendix B and illustrates the following: 801 - 2 -  a reduction of 2 lots along the easterly bank of lots (lots 10 to 19);  the creation of lots that exceed the required lot width of the R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District) zone. The R-3 zone requires a minimum lot width of 7.9m for lots with lane access (proposed lots 11–18 are 10 m in width and lots 10 and 19 are approximately 14 m in width);  the creation of lots that exceed the lot area requirement of 213m2 in the R-3 Zone (proposed lots 10 – 19 range from 273m2 to 331m2) . c) Approving Officer Comments The Approving Officer is aware of the concerns that arose during the Public Hearing regarding the density adjacent to the Lower Jackson Property, and had advised that he will be requiring that a Restrictive Covenant be registered on the title of each of the easterly bank of lots (lots 10–19) noting that future subdivision of those R-3 lots is not permitted. d) Alternatives: Council has the following options: i) Grant Third Reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6844–2011; ii) Deny Third Reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6844–2011; or iii) Defer Third Reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6844 -2011. CONCLUSIONS: Third Reading to Bylaw No. 6844-2011 was discussed at the June 26, 2012 Council Meeting, following the Public hearing held on June 19, 2012, and was deferred pending a discussion with the District Solicitor and applicant. The deferral was intended to provide the applicant with an opportunity to revise the draft subdivision plan, with a goal of increasing lot width and reducing the density of the lots along the Lower Jackson property. The District Solicitor has confirmed that Council can reduce the density of the development, with the property owners consent. The property owner concurs with the reduction in density and has submitted a revised layout in support of the reduction. It is therefore recommended that Third Reading be granted to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6844-2011.

DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Falcon Hill Joint Venture Owners: Lawrence Shumyla Construction Ltd Donada Industries Ltd Deyor Farms Ltd Meadowland Industries Ltd Legal Description: Lot: 36, D.L.: 404, Plan: BCP33222 OCP: Existing: Urban Residential, Conservation Proposed: Urban Residential, Conservation Zoning: Existing: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Proposed: RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Conservation Zone: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: Conservation South: Use: Single Family Residential, Conservation Zone: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential), R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District) Designation: Urban Residential, Conservation East: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: R-3(Special Amenity Residential District) Designation: Urban Residential West: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District) Designation: Urban Residential - 3 - Existing Use of Property: Vacant Proposed Use of Property: Multi-Family Residential Site Area: 1.048 hectares Access: 237 Street Servicing requirement: Urban Standard b) Project Description: The applicant proposes to construct a three building townhouse development containing a total of 12 units in the south-east portion of the subject site. The remaining portion of the site is proposed to be dedicated as park for conservation purposes. The units will be accessed from a private strata road connected to 111A Avenue. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan : The subject property is designated Urban Residential, and because Creekside Drive is a Major Corridor in the OCP, the development is subject to the Major Corridor Inf ill Policies in the plan. The proposed RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) zone is in compliance with the Urban Residential land use designation and compatibility criteria. An Official Community Plan amendment application for a conservation boundary adjustment is required and forms part of this report. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the property located at 23709 111A Avenue from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) to permit future construction of townhouses. The applicant has requested variances to the front, rear, and exterior side setbacks, as well as a height variance to maximize the use of the developable area and create an esthetically pleasing design. Most of the setback variances are adjacent to the adjoining conservation area, with a minor setback relaxation for a corner of one of the townhouse units next to an existing residential use to the south. These variances will require a Development Variance Permit application and will be the subject of a future report to Council. Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.7 of the Official Community Plan, a Multi-Family Development Permit application is required to ensure the current proposal enhances existing neighbourhoods with compatible housing styles that meet diverse needs, and minimize potential conflicts with neighbouring land uses. Pursuant to Section 8.9 and 8.10 of the Official Community Plan, Watercourse Protection and Natural Features Development Permit applications are required for all developments within 50 metres of the top of bank of all watercourses and wetlands and lands with an average natural - 4 - slope of greater than 15 percent. The purpose of these permits is to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and riparian areas. Advisory Design Panel : The Advisory Design Panel reviewed the form and character of the proposed townhouse development and the landscaping plans at a meeting held April 10, 2012. Following presentations by the project Architect and Landscape Architect, the Advisory Design Panel resolved that: The following concerns be addressed and digital versions of revised drawings and memo be submitted to Planning staff; and further that Plann ing staff forward this on to the Advisory Design Panel for information:  Consider adding a cover over the balconies  Consider adding a patio in front of Unit #8 to create a privacy screen  Consider the kitchen layout (with regards to location of the sink and dishwasher)  Consider the layout of the bathroom and walk-in closet  Explore the feasibility of relocating the children’s amenity space to the northeast corner of the site with some extension of retaining walls and grading of the site which might require relocation of the visitor parking  Update plans to reflect location of street trees  Explore pedestrian connection to park  Provide adequate soil volume for the street trees (10 cubic metre per tree)  Update plans to include the shrub plans to reflect new retaining walls and planting up against these walls  Consider providing lower access between back yards (there is currently no access to the mower east side units)  Update plans to include street trees (subject to approval by Engineering and the Panel)  Consider the addition of hedge planting from the last retaining wall on the private lawn to green up this space  Consider the addition of a meaningful pedestrian connection to the park  Consider adding a pedestrian access to the public sidewalk  Update the roof plans  Update rendering and building sections  Coordinate grading with architectural and landscape plans and indicate the geotech setback line The ADP concerns will be addressed when the final plans are submitted for the Multi -Family Development Permit. - 5 - Development Information Meeting : Pursuant to Council Policy 6.20, a Development Information Meeting was not required for this application, as the OCP amendment is to adjust the conservation boundary only. d) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has reviewed the proposed development and has advised that all required services exist for the project; therefore, the applicant is not required to enter into a Rezoning Servicing Agreement as a condition of Final Reading. Parks & Leisure Services Department: The Parks & Leisure Services Department have identified that after the subdivision is completed they will be responsible for maintaining the street trees. In the case of this project it is estimated that there will be an additional three trees. The Manager of Parks & Open Space has advised that the maintenance requirement of $25.00 per new tree will increase their budget requirements by $75.00. Fire Department: The Fire Department has reviewed the proposed development and will require that fire lanes be denoted on strata plans and that ‘no parking’ signage be installed prior to occupancy. Additionally, the landscaping must not interfere with fire hydrants access or unit addresses. Environmental Implications: The Environmental Planner has reviewed the proposed development and has noted that Ministry of Environment and Department of Fisheries and Oceans notification is required for the applicant to construct a biofiltration swale system in the northern portion of the site. An enhancement and re- planting plan will be required for the park land including a post and rail fence along the boundary. e) Intergovernmental Issues: Local Government Act: An amendment to the Official Community Plan requires the local government to consult with any affected parties and to adopt related bylaws in compliance with the procedures outlined in Section 882 of the Act. The amendment required for this application, adjustment of the Conservation boundary, is considered to be minor in nature. It has been determined that no additional consultation beyond existing procedures is required, including referrals to the Board of the Regional District, the Council of an adjacent municipality, First Nations, the School District or agencies of the Federal and Provincial Governments. - 6 - The amendment has been reviewed with the Financial Plan/Capital Plan and the Waste Management Plan of the Greater Vancouver Regional District and determined to have no impact. CONCLUSION: Based on the review of supporting information regarding the proposed rezoning and development permit applications, it is recommended that Second Reading be given to Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6840 – 2011 and forwarded to Public Hearing; and further that First and Second Reading be given to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw N o. 6938-2012 and be forwarded to Public Hearing.

A property legal description must be added to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012 to correctly reflect the proposed OCP amendment and corresponding maps prior to Public Hearing. The zone amending bylaw is correct and does not require amendment. RECOMMENDATIONS: That Second Reading of Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012 be rescinded; and; That Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012 as amended, be given Second Reading and forwarded to Public Hearing. DISCUSSION: On June 26, 2012, Council granted First and Second Reading to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012 and forwarded it to Public Hearing. While the bylaw maps correctly identified the two properties involved, only one legal description was identified on the bylaw. In order to accurately reflect the proposed amendment, Council must rescind Second Reading and grant Second Reading to the amended bylaw in order for the application to proceed to Public Hearing. CONCLUSION: This revision is intended to align the properties’ legal descriptions in the OCP bylaw with the amending maps and the proposed development. There is no change to the proposed development and the change is considered to be minor, therefore it is recommended that Second Reading of 1102 - 2 - Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012 be rescinded and given Second Reading as amended. _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Amelia Bowden Planning Technician _______________________________________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL, MCIP Director of Planning _______________________________________________ Approved by: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.Eng GM: Public Works & Development Services _______________________________________________ Concurrence: J.

This application requires an amendment to the Official Community Plan to re-designate the land use from Low/Medium Density Residential to Medium Density Residential and Conservation in the Albion Area Plan. On November 8, 2011, Council gave First Reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6861-2011 to rezone this property to R-1 (Residential District) and RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential), and considered the early consultation requirements for the OCP amendment. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1.

DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Damax Consultants Ltd Owners: Seyem’ Qwantlen Land Development Ltd District of Maple Ridge Legal Descriptions: Lot: A, Section: 3, Township: 12,NWD Plan: EPP9830 Lot: B, Section: 3, Township 12, NWD Plan: BCP46878 OCP: Existing: Low/Medium Density Residential, Medium Density Residential Proposed: Medium Density Residential, Conservation Zoning: Existing: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential), M-2 (General Industrial) Proposed: R-1 (Residential District), RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) - 3 - Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Park Zone: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential), M-2 (General Industrial) Designation: Conservation South: Use: Vacant Zone: R-1 (Residential District) Designation: Urban Residential East: Use: Vacant Zone: R-1 (Residential District), RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential Designation: Urban Residential West: Use: Park Zone: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential), M-2 (General Industrial) Designation: Agricultural Existing Use of Property: Sand and Gravel (Vacant and Improved), Vacant Proposed Use of Property: Single Family Residential Site Area: 4.12 hectares (10.3 acres) Access: Jackson Road Servicing requirement: Urban Standard b) Project Description: The applicant proposes to rezone the subject site, a former sand and gravel pit, to allow for future subdivision into approximately 45 R-1 (Residential District) lots. A very small portion of the north east corner of the site will be zoned RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) to be eventually consolidated with an RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) lot further east. Approximately 1.46 hectares (3.6 acres) of steep sloping land will be dedicated as park, which will include a lookout area and a multipurpose trail connecting to existing trails to the north of the subject site. Portions of the site are proposed to be filled with soil acquired from the re-grading of lands to the east. It will be necessary for the applicant to purchase the eastern portion of municipal property located at 10190 Jackson Road in order to proceed with this development application. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan : The subject site is located in the Albion Area Plan. Approximately 75% of the site is designated Low/Medium Density Residential, while the remainder is designated Medium Density Residential. Both these Official Community Plan designations permit single detached housing forms located in the Albion Area. The R-1 (Residential District) zone is in compliance with the Medium Density Residential designation, but the Low/Medium Density Residential designation would typically allow - 4 - an RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) zone. The land to the south and east of the subject site (Upper Jackson Farm) is outside the Albion Area Plan and is designated Urban Residential. There is an active subdivision application (SD/040/09) on that land for R-1 (Residential District) zoned lots. Therefore, justification has been provided to support an OCP amendment to re-designate the Low/Medium Density Residential land to Medium Density Residential on the subject site. The subject site is not located in the North Albion Area and therefore not involved in the North Albion Review process currently underway. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the properties located at 10150 and 10190 Jackson Road from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) and M-2 (General Industrial) to R-1 (Residential District) and RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) to permit future subdivision into single family homes. All the proposed lots meet the requirements of these zones. Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.10 of the Official Community Plan, a Natural Features Development Permit application is required for all development and subdivision activity for all lands with an average natural slope of greater than 15 percent to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of the natural environment and for development that is protected from hazardous conditions. Development Information Meeting : A Development Information Meeting was held at Thomas Haney Secondary School on April 5, 2012. A summary of the comments and discussions with the attendees was provided by the applicant and included the following concerns:  Impact of 248 Street properties’ views;  Pedestrian safety on Jackson Road. The applicant provided the following in response to the issues raised by the public:  The existing grades on the subject site will be lowered substantially and as a result, will reduce the impact on views.  Road improvements to increase pedestrian safety are proposed to include a sidewalk on the east side of Jackson Road and a multi-purpose trail on the west side to connect with the park to the south. A round-about traffic circle will be constructed at Jackson Road and 102 Avenue as part of a separate application (SD/040/09). - 5 - d) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has reviewed the proposed development and has advised that no servicing works are required with this application and therefore a Rezoning Servicing Agreement will not be needed. Sanitary and storm sewer construction, as well as watermain and street light installation on Jackson Road fronting this site, has previously been secured through the Rezoning Servicing Agreement for development of Upper Jackson Farm under approved application RZ/040/09. The Engineering Department has further advised that road dedication along the full length of the development site, including a portion of 10190 Jackson Road, to achieve the 26 metre road allowance required for an urban arterial, will be necessary for this project. Parks & Leisure Services Departm ent: The Parks & Leisure Services Department have identified that after the subdivision is completed they will be responsible for maintaining the street trees. In the case of this project it is estimated that there will be an additional 50 trees which is based on one tree per lot; final subdivision design will provide exact numbers. The Manager of Parks & Open Space has advised that the maintenance requirement of $25.00 per new tree will increase their budget requirements by $1250.00. Fire Department: The Fire Department has reviewed the proposed development and has noted that any landscaping proposed for the lots fronting Jackson Road should not obscure the visibility of addresses now or in the future to ensure efficient emergency response. e) School District Comments: A referral was submitted to School District 42 for comment on the proposed OCP amendment; however, no comments have been received to date. In past discussions with staff of the School District, it is clear that Albion Elementary is exceeding capacity. Therefore, an increase to the number of elementary-aged children as a result of this proposal will likely require those children to attend a school other than Albion Elementary. f) Environmental Implications: The applicant has submitted a Natural Features Development Permit application as the subject site includes lands with an average natural slope of greater than 15 percent. The requirements of this Development Permit will be to provide enhancement and replanting works in the areas identified for park dedication, as well as securities equivalent to 100% of the replanting works and maintenance for five years. g) Intergovernmental Issues: Local Government Act: An amendment to the Official Community Plan requires the local government to consult with any affected parties and to adopt related bylaws in compliance with the procedures outlined in Section 882 of the Act. The amendment required for this application, from land use designation - 6 - Low/Medium Density Residential to Medium Density Residential and Conservation is considered to be minor in nature. It has been determined that no additional consultation beyond existing procedures is required, including referrals to the Board of the Regional District, the Council of an adjacent municipality, First Nations, the School District or agencies of the Federal and Provincial Governments. The amendment has been reviewed with the Financial Plan/Capital Plan and the Waste Management Plan of the Greater Vancouver Regional District and determined to have no impact. CONCLUSION: Based on the review of supporting information regarding the proposed rezoning and subdivision applications, it is recommended that Second Reading be given to Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No.6861-2011 and forwarded to Public Hearing; and further that First and Second Reading be given to Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012 and be forwarded to Public Hearing. _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Amelia Bowden Planning Technician _______________________________________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL, MCIP Director of Planning _______________________________________________ Approved by: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.Eng GM: Public Works & Development Services _______________________________________________ Concurrence: J.

The subject property is within the Albion Flats, and was included in the study a rea for the Albion Flats Concept Plan. The Applicant’s submission conforms with the notice of application requirements of the Agricultural Land Commission. In 2005, Council adopted a process on how to deal with ALR exclusion applications. On February 14, 2005, Council passed the following Resolution: “That the process for referring applications to the Agricultural Land Commission as resolved at the July 19, 2004 Council Workshop be amended to include the following options only: a) The application not be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission. b) The application be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission with a summary of Council’s comments”. This is the process followed for the Pelton exclusion and non-farm use application in 2010. In analyzing the application this report considers the history of the development of the Albion Flats Concept Plan, the staff report of January 23, 2012, the merits of the application with regard to benefits for agriculture and especially the comments received from the Agricultural Land Commission in correspondence dated November 29, 2011. In advance of formal applications (for exclusion or non-farm use), the Agricultural Land Commission was willing to provide preliminary comments following the completion of the draft Concept Plan. The District of Maple Ridge (DMR) followed the Commission’s advice and submitted the Concept Plan to the Commission for comments in May, 2011. The Commission’s response, by Resolution # 2635/2011, stated: “THAT the Commission not endorse the draft concept plan entirely as submitted, but only in part; That DMR be advised that while the Commission is prepared to cooperate towards future commercial or industrial development at Albion Flats, it will do so in - 2 - conjunction with restoration of an agricultural future for that part of Albion Flats lying to the north of 105 Avenue; AND THAT focusing on the area north of 105 Avenue the Commission will expect DMR to undertake a comprehensive review of drainage and stream flow conditions in the Road Thirteen Dyking District with a view to resolving issues identified in the Golder Associates overview agricultural assessment and the HB Lanarc environmental baseline report, that review to include  preliminary consultation with Fisheries and Oceans Canada;  preparation of an agricultural remedial action plan in consultation with the Commission, the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the land owners, such a plan to address all relevant issues including but not limited to drainage, long term access, buffering or consolidation; and  design to ensure that traffic patterns enable practical access and use by farm vehicles; AND THAT the Commission will expect DMR to submit an application under section 29 of the Agricultural Land Commission Act to exclude from the ALR the land lying south of 105 Avenue and west of 240 Street together with any remnant areas elsewhere in DMR identified by the Commission as being unsuitable for Agriculture; Commission approval of such an application may be in part or in whole conditional on progress toward the foregoing action plan; AND THAT this response does not suggest or promote any move to eliminate the use of land at Albion Flats as an agricultural fairground; AND THAT the Commission recognizes that any implementation or action to be taken with respect to the Commission’s response to the concept plan will require that DMR and land owners be responsible for complying with applicable Acts, Regulations, and decisions of any authorities that have jurisdiction under an enactment.” It is clear from the Commissions comments that drainage issues on the north side of 105 Avenue need to be addressed. It is also clear that the Commission has directed that the exclusion of the lands to the south of 105 Avenue are contingent on the agricultural future of lands on the north side being restored. With this clear direction from the Agricultural Land Commission it is evident that for the Commission to change its direction with regard to the lands on the north side, a significantly persuasive case would need to be made. In addition the District’s policies require that exclusion applications demonstrate a net benefit for agriculture. Following receipt of the Commissions comments it was understood that property owners on the north side of 105 Avenue would be preparing detailed exclusion applications that would have merit and would be defensible. With this understanding, in January 2012, Council considered a report that gave property owners an opportunity to submit their exclusion applications. If the applications were deemed to have merit, Council would consider forwarding them to the Commission. Since that time however one of the main property owners on the north side of 105 Avenue has decided that they will not be submitting an exclusion application at this time. In other words this - 3 - property owner does not believe that a case can be made for exclusion and has chosen an alternative approach. Their revised proposal would retain their property in the ALR. The application under consideration in this report has been analyzed for its benefits to agriculture. Other than moving the top soil to another agricultural parcel, the analysis concludes that the application is not based on a benefit to agriculture but primarily focuses on stating that the land is not suitable for farming. This conclusion is based on poor drainage, an issue that the Agricultural Land Commission is not only already aware of, but has directed that it be addressed in order for the lands to the south of 105 Avenue to be excluded. It is staffs recommendation, based on the merits of the application with regard to the benefits to agriculture, and considering the directions provided by the Agricultural Land Commission, that Council approve option (a) which states “The application not be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission. An alternative consideration, option (b), is to send the application forward to the Agricultural Land Commission. The advantages of doing so include providing an opportunity for the applicant to have an audience with the Commission, and clarifying the status of this property. There may be a sense that, in forwarding the application, the Agricultural Land Commission decision would bring absolute certainty to the issue. RECOMMENDATION: At the February 14, 2005 Workshop, Council resolved that the process for referring applications for exclusion to the Agricultural Land Commission include the following options: a) The application not be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission. b) The application be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission with a summary of Council’s comments. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Yourland Development & Research Solutions Sherry Gordon Owner: Steve Wynnyk, John Wynnyk Legal Description: Lot: A, D.L.: 275, Block: 18, Plan: 9652 OCP Existing: Agricultural Zoning Existing: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: 2 properties, Park and Rural Residential Zone: RS-3 One Family Rural Residential Designation Agricultural and Park in the ALR South: Use: Agricultural Fairgrounds & Recreational uses - 4 - Zone: CD-4-88 Designation: Park in the ALR East: Use: Farm Zone: RS-3 One Family Rural Residential Designation: Agricultural West: Use: 11 properties, 10 vacant or rural residential, 1 park Zone: 10 RS-3 One Family Rural Residential, 1 CD-4-88 Designation: 10 Agriculture and Park in the ALR Existing Use of Property: Agriculture Proposed Use of Property: Not explicitly stated Site Area: 16.655 hectares (41 acres) Access: 105th Avenue b) Project Description: This application is for the exclusion of the subject property from the Agricultural Land Reserve. The application is accompanied by an agrologist’s report in support of the application. The premise of the report is that drainage issues have severely compromised the agricultural capability of the property. The proposed benefit to agriculture is to transport the fertile soil to an agricultural property in Mission. There is no explicit statement of intent for the development of this subject property if excluded from the Agricultural Land Reserve. At the time of writing, one letter of opposition has been received from within the community and will be included in the application, if forwarded to the Commission. c) Albion Flats: The subject property is within the Albion Flats. The Maple Ridge Official Community Plan, adopted in 2006, notes that the Albion Flats is under municipal, regional and provincial jurisdiction. The area has been one of municipal interest for several years. Due to its strategic location along the Lougheed Highway, the lands were designated a special study area of the Regional Growth Strategy of Metro Vancouver Regional District1. The intent of this designation was for the possible conversion of these lands for uses that would assist the community in meeting economic development objectives. The subject property was part of the Albion Flats Concept Plan, which compiled technical background research, public input, and Council comments into a draft proposal for the consideration of the Agricultural Land Commission. This application is the first landowner application for exclusion to have occurred since receiving Commission comments in December 2011. 1 In the Metro Vancouver Regional Growth Strategy, a Special Study Area is a location where a municipality has expressed its intention to alter the existing land use, and is anticipating a future regional land use designation amendment. Amending a Special Study Area land use designation or Urban Area Boundary is considered to be a Minor Amendment, and lands in the Agricultural Land Reserve require consultation with the Agricultural Land Commission during the preparation of the planning studies, prior to initiating an application to exclude lands from the ALR. - 5 - Albion Flats Concept Plan On January 11, 2010 Council directed that a Concept Plan be prepared for the Albion Flats. On February 15, 2010 Council gave consideration to the “Albion Flats Concept Plan Process” report dated February 8, 2010 and resolved that the process recommended in that report be approved. In advance of formal applications (for exclusion or non-farm use), the Agricultural Land Commission was willing to provide preliminary comments following the completion of the draft Concept Plan. The District of Maple Ridge followed the Commission’s advice and submitted their Concept Plan to the Commission for comments in May, 2011. The Concept Plan as submitted proposed the following land uses: South Side of 105 Avenue  Commercial (transit oriented mixed use)  Residential (townhouse)  Recreation (including multi-purpose recreation facility)  Community garden and agricultural fields  Agricultural fairgrounds and farm cluster  Conservation/green space  Institutional  Mixed employment node (business & light industrial)  Agri-Industrial North Side of 105 Avenue  Commercial (auto-oriented regional serving retail)  Business office  Conservation/green space Commission Review As stated above, the Commission provided the District with the opportunity to receive written comments from the Agricultural Land Commission on the Concept Plan. The subject property is within a portion of the site that the Commission did not endorse for exclusion, on the basis that the land north of 105 Avenue has agricultural capability; is suitable for agricultural use; and is appropriately designated as Agricultural Land Reserve. The Commission would consider exclusion for the lands south of 105 Avenue, but imposed conditions including improving the agricultural capability of the properties that would remain within the Reserve. The Commission advised Council to proceed with a Local Government exclusion application for the properties south of 105 Avenue. Applications by Land Owner for the Properties North of 105 Avenue Upon receipt of Commission feedback, Council considered a number of processes. Prior to initiating the process of an exclusion application by local government, they would give the private land owners on the area north of 105 Avenue the opportunity to apply for exclusion of these lands. These property owners had indicated that they would be proceeding with exclusion applications. On January 24, 2012, Council directed staff to advance a “Hybrid Option”, where the owners of land north of 105 Avenue would submit applications for the lands north of 105 Avenue. As noted in the staff report dated January 23, 2012, the Council decision to forward such applications would be based on their merits. After the Commission decision was public, the District would submit an exclusion application for the lands south of 105 Avenue. The rationale for this approach was that if the exclusion application on lands to the north was approved, the conditions binding the District towards agricultural improvements would no longer - 6 - apply. In addition, clarifying the available land base gave the District an opportunity to refine its Concept Plan to maximize the amount of commercial and employment generating lands. Application by Local Government for the Properties South of 105 Avenue There are approximately 60.36 hectares (149 acres) of land in the Agricultural Land Reserve on the south side of 105 Avenue. The Commission comments advise that in return for agricultural restoration north of 105 Avenue, it will not place any restrictions on the use of lands to the south, with the added advice that this does not suggest or promote any move to eliminate the use of lands in the Albion Flats as an agricultural fairground. On this basis, it appears that Maple Ridge could move forward with an exclusion application for all 60.36 ha (149 acres) on the south side by undertaking the following work and commitments:  A comprehensive drainage analysis;  An agricultural remedial action plan;  Traffic analysis;  A commitment to keep the use of lands in the Albion Flats as an agricultural fairground. It also appears that no further refinement of the draft concept plan would be required at this time in order to advance an exclusion application. Assuming the lands are removed from the ALR, the District would refine the concept plan to accommodate the District’s desired uses including the commitment to keep the use of lands in the Albion Flats as an agricultural fairground. Based on the Commission decision, the District would have considerable freedom in the types of land uses it could permit on the South side of 105 Avenue. d) Planning Analysis: Merits of this Exclusion Application On January 24, 2012, Council passed by resolution an option which gave private land owners an opportunity to apply for exclusion from the Agricultural Land Reserve for the properties on the north side of 105 Avenue. It is important to note that the staff report dated January 23, 2012 stated that the Council decision to forward such applications would still be based on their merits. On this basis, the merits of this application require consideration. The rationale for converting the Albion Flats to other uses relates to its strategic location and ability to meet community needs for commercial and employment generating lands. This potential is recognized by Council, Metro Vancouver, and the Agricultural Land Commission. The subject property is within an area that was indicated in the Albion Concept Plan for business office development. Of particular concern is that there is no stated intention for the development of these lands. With regards to the highest and best use of the subject site, it is important that Council consider the implications of permitting this application to proceed to the Agricultural Land Commission without some review of potential future land uses. If excluded from the Agricultural Land Reserve, the land value could increase significantly, making it difficult for the property to be acquired for purposes that would meet community need. The rationale for exclusion as provided by the applicant relate to the drainage problems associated with the subject property. It is understood and accepted by the Commission that these constraints currently impede the agricultural potential of the property. For this reason, the Commission has established conditions that remediation be provided prior to any exclusion of the lands within the study area. The remediation required by the Commission will be a condition - 7 - of exclusion and will not be at the expense of those whose properties are to be retained as agricultural parcels. Official Community Plan Policy 6-12 of the Official Community Plan applies to land use decisions that affect the agricultural land base. It states: Maple Ridge will protect the productivity of its agricultural land by: a) Adopting a guiding principle of “positive benefit to agriculture” when making land use decisions that could affect the agricultural land base, with favourable recognition of initiatives including but not limited to supportive non-farm uses, infrastructure improvements for farmland, or the inclusion of land elsewhere in the Agricultural Land Reserve. The requirement in the Official Community Plan for a net benefit to agriculture indicates that measures such as supportive non-farm uses, infrastructure improvements for farmland, or the inclusion of land elsewhere in the Agricultural Land Reserve would be appropriate to compensate for the loss of agricultural land. An offer to remove the soil from the site for use elsewhere does not appear to be of a similar magnitude to these measures. Maple Ridge Agricultural Plan The Maple Ridge Agricultural Plan, adopted in 2009, noted that there are significant agricultural areas within the District that are compromised due to flooding. Goal 6 of the Plan states the following: It is difficult for the community to realize the potential of agricultural lands that are compromised due to deteriorating infrastructure, and are less productive as a result. This situation may contribute to pressures to convert this land to non-farm uses. In view of the fact that a lower standard of infrastructure improvements is required to meet agricultural drainage and flood control needs in the flood plain, it would appear to make sense to use this relationship to the benefit of agriculture and the community as a whole. The primary goal with respect to larger established farming operations in Maple Ridge is to plan for their retention as farms, rather than watch them languish and deteriorate, so that the community can optimize the rewards and advantages of having agriculture in its midst. Limited to highly specific situations, the secondary goal (if the primary goal is not feasible) is to explore establishing a policy of compensation from development that enables funds to be generated and expended so that the net agricultural capability of the District is enhanced by investment elsewhere. Key recommendations of the Plan state the following: a) Explore establishing a drainage and flood control levy b) Undertake a feasibility study of drainage and flood control to rehabilitate affected areas c) Require compensation from unavoidable agricultural land conversion developments to be used to increase net agricultural capability in the District This excerpt reveals considerable consistency between the conditions set by the Agricultural Land Commission for the Albion Flats and the policy statements of the Agricultural Plan. - 8 - In summary, the community benefit from excluding this strategically located property is not made clear in this application. The requirement for a net benefit to agriculture has not been met. The rationale for this exclusion relates to the drainage problems associated with the subject property. This concern is supported by the inclusion of an agrologist’s report. It is clear that drainage concerns were noted and understood by the Agricultural Land Commission when they provided Council with comments in 2011. In fact these are problems that the Commission will require to be addressed as part of the exclusion application for the lands to the south of 105 Ave nue. Based on these considerations it is staffs recommendation that Council approve option (a) which states “The application not be authorized to go forward to the Agricultural Land Commission.” e) Alternatives: Council may wish to consider “option b)”, forward the application to the Agricultural Land Commission. The advantages of doing so would be to give the applicant an opportunity to be heard directly by the Agricultural Land Commission. There may be a sense that the Agricultural Land Commission’s decision would bring clarity and certainty to the issue. It should be noted that recent changes to the Agricultural Land Commission Act include the ability of the Commission to not reconsider an application for non-farm use or exclusion made by an individual for 5 years following a refusal. CONCLUSION: This application for exclusion occurs in an area of the Albion Flats that the Agricultural Land Commission has consistently stated should be retained in the Agricultural Land Reserve. The benefit to agriculture proposed with this application (the transport of soils to agricultural land) does not appear particularly strong. The community benefit to be served by the conversion of this strategically located site is not clear. In addition, the rationale for this exclusion relate s to the drainage problems associated with the subject property. It is understood that this information is and was understood by the Commission when they provided Council with its comments in 2011. In fact these are problems that the Commission will require to be addressed as part of the exclusion application for the lands to the south of 105 Avenue. Based on these considerations, option (a) is recommended. However this report also identifies an alternative approach. As per Council’s direction two options are provided for Council’s consideration. “Original signed by Diana Hall” _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Diana Hall, Planner 2 “Original signed by Christine Carter” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Christine Carter M,PL,MCIP Director of Planning “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Approved by; Frank Quinn, MBA, P.

Part of the subdivision 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 144/11 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 subdivision of lands involved in Subdivision SD/075/07 located at 240 Street and 103 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 th at 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 July 9, 2012; and further 3. That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal Excess Capacity Latecomer Agreement LC 144/11 with the subdivider of the said lands. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: The attached map identifies the lands which are involved in the subdivision 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 144/11 is also attached for information purposes. 1104 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 develope r 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 144/11 will provide such determination for Subdivision SD/075/07. CONCLUSION: A developer has provided certain services in support of Subdivision SD/075/07. Some of the services benefit adjacent lands therefore, it is appropriate to impose Latecomer Charges on the benefitting lands. Latecomer Agreement LC 144/11 summarizes the municipality’s determination of benefitting lands and cost attribution and also establishes the term over which such Latecomer Charges will be applied.

Generally, our fees are in line with other communities, though a few changes are recommended as discussed in this report. RECOMMENDATION(S): THAT Bylaw No.6937-2012 be given first, second and third readings. DISCUSSION: a)Background Context: A fee schedule review was researched and completed comparing the following jurisdictions: City Police Forces –Abbotsford, New Westminster and Vancouver RCMP Detachments –Coquitlam, North Vancouver, Richmond, Surrey, Langley, Mission and Burnaby. Our findings conclude that many of these jurisdictions have recently revised their fee schedules or have plans to do so. b)Desired Outcome(s): We recommend our fees increase for the following services: Revised Fee Former Fee Collision Analyst Report $630 $485 (An expert report on accidents prepared by traffic specialists. These reports are used by insurance companies & lawyers) Scene Measurement Log $ 55 $ 35 (Measurements taken at a MV accident. Requested by insurance Companies & lawyers) Insurance Claim Report/Synopsis $ 55 $ 46 (Details of a file reported on loss or theft of property. These reports are requested by insurance companies) Witness List $ 45 $ 32 (A list of witness names on a police file and provided to law firms & insurance companies Video/Audio/Photo CD $ 55 $ 45 (Compilation of records from the Police file) We further recommend adding the following fees for service for work performed at the detachment: Revised Fee Former Fee Forensic Identification Evidence Report $680 n/c (An expert report on physical evidence comparison & identification of suspect. Requested by law firms) Court Ordered File Processing Fee $ 50 n/c (An administrative fee for retrieving & processing information on a police file. This information is requested by law firms & insurance companies) Transcription Fee $ 55 n/c (Per hour cost to transcribe statements relating to a police file. Requests are made fromlaw firms & insurance companies) c)Strategic Alignment; Pursuant to good fiscal management, it is our responsibility to review and m ake recommendations to Council for change associated to fees for service. d)Citizen/Customer Implications: It is our belief that our fees remain fair and reasonable for our citizens and we commit to staying within the mid-range in comparison to other jurisdictions.Further, we recommend that we implement a students’ rate in relation to checks and fingerprinting services required for school purposes, such as entry to colleges/universities or educational programs.As most students often do not have a steady income stream we propose to apply the volunteer rate where this applies to students. e)Interdepartmental Implications: None. f)Business Plan/Financial Implications: The updated fees may show a slight increase in revenues in the Police Services budget. g)Policy Implications: None. h)Alternatives: i)Eliminate fees for service j)Do not update the current fee schedule k)Increase fees higher than the current recommendation CONCLUSIONS: There are many services that the detachment offers and it is important that the time and specialty it takes to perform these services be reflected in the fees model.Although our fee schedule has not required revisions in the last several years, a recent comparison of fees to other jurisdictions indicates a revision to some of our current fee schedule is required at this time. “Original signed by Maureen Jones” _____________________________________________________ Prepared by:Maureen Jones, Senior Manager Police Services “Original signed by Paul Gill” ________________________________________________________________ Approved by:Paul Gill, General Manager of Corporate & Financial Services “Original signed by J.L.
