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.

- 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.

SUBJECT: Second Reading
Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012
10150 and 10190 Jackson Road
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Council previously considered Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6928-2012
and Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No.6861-2011 to permit future subdivision of the subject
site into single-family lots. 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.

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.

District of Maple Ridge
TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: July 9, 2012
and Members of Council FILE NO: 2012-061-AL
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W
SUBJECT: Application to Exclude Land from the Agricultural Land Reserve
23451 105 Avenue
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
An application has been received under Section 30 (1) of the Agricultural Land Commission Act to
exclude 16.655 hectares (41 acres) of land from the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR). 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.

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.

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.

SUBJECT: Excess Capacity/Extended Services Agreement LC 144/11
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
A developer has subdivided land at 240 Street and 103 Avenue. 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.

District of Maple Ridge
TO:His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE:July 9th, 2012
and Members of Council FILE NO:
FROM:Chief Administrative Officer MEETING:Committee of the Whole
SUBJECT:Police Services Fee Schedule Review
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
As is our normal practice, we have reviewed the fees charged at our police detachment. 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.
