Sherry Welykholowa Ms. Welykholowa is an in-home care provider. She expressed concern with the impact of the proposed day care on traffic in the area particularly on the intersection at Kanaka Way and 240th Street which is already a high accident intersection. Samantha Johnston Ms. Johnston expressed support for the child care centre at this new location. She stated that many parents prefer to have children in a large daycare and did not feel that lack of children to fill day care spaces is a concern. She expressed appreciation of the locality of the new child care centre in that she can walk with her children between the facility and Kanaka Creek School. John Wynnyk Mr. Wynnyk’s asked whether the open space to the west of the proposed day care will become a parking or a playground area. The Acting Manager of Development and Environmental Services advised that the open space will be designated as a child play area. Mr. Wynnyk expressed concern with the current lack of parking for the area and that Kanaka Way will become a parking lot for persons accessing the play area. He advised that he was opposed to development proposed due to the limited parking. The Acting Manager of Development and Environmental Services advised on parking spaces and on the parking study done for the area. Mr. Wynnk requested a copy of the traffic study. Lynsey Pashley - applicant Ms. Pashley reported that the new child care centre is 85% full and that another location is being closed. She provided background information on the decision to open a child care centre in this location and advised that a traffic study was done. Sherry Welykholowa Ms. Welykholowa questioned the parking study and expressed concern that with the proposed child care centre being 85% full, additional traffic will be added to that area. She wondered whether there will be enough parking spaces to allow all users of the child care centre to go in, park and unload their children. The Mayor advised that the parking study for the application is available. Public Hearing Minutes July 21, 2015 Page 9 of 9 Anita Wynnyk Mrs. Wynnyk asked whether parking is being addressed only for the day care or for the whole complex and stated that she feels there is not enough parking being provided. The Acting Manager of Development and Environmental Services advised that the parking is for all uses on the site. Mrs. Wynnyk clarified that she is not against the proposed daycare, rather that she is concerned with the traffic congestion and traffic problems currently being experienced in the area. John Wynnk Mr. Wynnk asked whether street parking is recognized as parking for the complex or strictly as street parking. The Acting Manager of Development and Environmental Services provided further clarification on parking for the site and advised that there will be a total of 19 parking stalls. Tasleem McGillivary Ms. McGillivary spoke in favour of the proposed new centre. She felt that as many parents will drop children off early, the facility will not contribute to traffic congestion. There being no further comment, the Mayor declared this item dealt with.

Speirs, Acting Mayor Presiding Member of the Committee City of Maple Ridge TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read MEETING DATE: July 20, 2015 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2015-078-RZ FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W SUBJECT: First Reading Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7161-2015 11581 256 Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: An application has been received to rezone the subject property from LUC (Land Use Contracts) to P-2 (Special Institutional). The purpose of this application is to expand an existing seniors care facility at the subject property referred to above. The terms of the existing Land Use Contract, established in 1976, limit resident numbers to 38 clients and 4 residences for staff. For this reason, an expansion of the existing facility could not occur without rezoning. Reflecting the subject property’s existing and historic use, the land use designation is Institutional. While this application complies with the subject property’s Official Community Plan designation, there are significant OCP policy implications pertinent to this proposal . In addition, an Official Community Plan amendment will be required for Conservation of the lands identified for slope and watercourse protection. This requirement is consistent with current municipal standards for the protection of environmentally sensitive areas. A number of issues about this proposal have been raised in this report, including potential loss of affordable, special needs housing in the community, and the urban scale of the proposal in a rural / suburban context. In order to address these issues, the recommended approach is to defer this application until additional information is provided. RECOMMENDATIONS: That application 2015-078-RZ be deferred until more detailed information is provided, including tenant information and relocation plan, feasibility study, determination of developable area with site servicing, septic capacity, and demonstrated compliance with municipal zoning and parking requirements on site plan. DISCUSSION: a)Background Context: Applicant: Atl Health And Wellness Enterprises (Charles Cantos) Owner: Atl Health & Wellness Enterprises Inc. Legal Description: Lot: 15, Section: 14, Township: 12, Plan: NWP2509 1101 - 2 - OCP: Existing: Institutional Proposed: Institutional Zoning: Existing: LUC (Land Use Contract) Proposed: P-2 (Special Institutional) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Rural Residential Zone: RS-3 One Family Rural Residential Designation: Agricultural South: Use: Kanaka Creek Regional Park Zone: RS-3 One Family Rural Residential Designation: Park East: Use: Rural Residential Zone: RS-3 One Family Rural Residential Designation: Suburban Residential West: Use: Kanaka Creek Regional Park Zone: RS-3 One Family Rural Residential Designation: Park Existing Use of Property: Congregate care facility Proposed Use of Property: Expanded congregate care facility Site Area: 0.861 HA. (2.1 acres) Access: 256th Street Servicing requirement: Rural Standard with community water b) Site Characteristics: The site is characterized by slopes over 30% along the west and south property lines, and Freebie Creek is located in the north-west corner of the property. These conditions put the site into a natural Features and Watercourse Protection Development Permit Area. Kanaka Creek Regional Park is adjacent to the subject property along its southern edge. To its north is a property within the Agricultural Land Reserve. For this reason, an assessment of the impacts of this proposal to the agricultural potential of this adjacent property will be required. This requirement complies with the provisions of Official Community Plan Policy 6 -12. The site is located outside of the urban area boundary, and the present and proposed facility must rely on septic disposal, rather than a sanitary sewer, but is connected to community water. c) Project Description: This application is for the replacement and significant expansion of an existing congregate care facility. The facility commenced with a Land Use Contract from 1976. The facility’s website indicates that it provides its residents with an affordable housing option (the website indicates rates starting at $995 per month) with the following services: • Private Suites with Private Bathrooms • 3 Meals a day • 24 Hour Staffing - 3 - • Transportation to town • Utilities, Housekeeping, and Laundry Kanaka Creek Seniors Centre operates under licence from Fraser Health. Although the residential cap of the site is 38 residents, the applicant reports that only 9 residents currently live there. The proposed new facility will have significantly higher rents, ranging from $2500.00 to $4500.00 per month1. Environmentally sensitive portions of the site will need to be dedicated, triggering an OCP amendment to Conservation, and reducing the overall site area. The facility is proposed to be 4645m2 (50,000 square feet) in size, which is significantly larger than the current operation, which is limited to 697m2 (7,500 square feet) under the existing Land Use Contract. At this time the current application has been assessed to determine its compliance with the Official Community Plan (OCP) and provide a land use assessment only. This application is provided in compliance with the Development Procedures Bylaw, which allows Council to approve first reading applications based on land use concepts, without physical context. Under this process, a first reading rezoning application requires limited information such as: 1. A completed application form with the prescribed fee; 2. A Certificate of Title and a Consent Form (if the applicant is different from the owner shown on the certificate of title) plus copies of any restrictive covenant documents registered against title to the lands; 3. A Site Profile; 4. A written statement describing the proposal or amendment including an assessment as to consistency of the proposal with Official Community Plan policies and guidelines; Additional information may also be required as follows: 5. A metric scaled preliminary site plan sufficient in detail to demonstrate what is being proposed on the site, compliance with the Zoning Bylaw and any development permit guidelines. All variances must be clearly noted. The current Development Procedures Bylaw process may be well suited for properties within the urban area boundary, where the provision of full urban standards can be assumed or provided. For this application, however, there are a number of questions about site capacity and actual developable area that would need to be assessed before the feasibility of this proposal could be determined. The current process makes it challenging for Council to be provided with sufficient information to make an informed decision. Under the Development Procedures Bylaw, a detailed review and comments need to be made once full application packages have been received. A more detailed analysis and a further report will be required prior to Second Reading. Such assessment may impact proposed lot boundaries, environmental and geo-technical setbacks, appropriate occupancy loads, OCP designations and Bylaw particulars, and may require application for further development permits or variances. 1 The applicant reports that a transition plan would be made to provide existing tenants with suitable relocation options. - 4 - d) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: This proposal has multiple policy implications identified in the Official Community Plan. These include the provision of affordable housing, and special needs housing. In addition, the subject property is designated Institutional and could therefore be rezoned without requiring an amendment to the Official Community Plan. An adjacent property is within the Agricultural Land Reserve, and therefore the need for agricultural impacts assessments are triggered. The Official Community Plan also contains policies related to Institutional uses in rural areas, and these would have to be considered in the context of a rezoning application. The following policies relate to Institutional uses in the Official Community Plan: 4 - 33 Large Scale Institutional Facilities such as public hospitals, congregate care facilities, and private hospitals should: a) be within the Urban Area Boundary; b) be conveniently located near public transit; c) have direct access to a collector, arterial, TransLink major road or Provincial Highway as identified in the Maple Ridge Transportation plan; d) where considered necessary, require the completion of a transportation impact study; and e) respect the neighbourhood context and natural features. 4 - 34 Proposed expansions in the range of uses or size of existing Large Scale Institutional Facilities must be evaluated on their impacts to the adjacent neighbourhood, to the transportation network, to existing services and facilities, and to the surrounding community and its natural features. The redevelopment or reuse of institutional facilities for other than institutional use is encouraged, providing that the transportation network servicing and infrastructure can support the use. 4 - 35 An Institutional use may be considered in rural areas provided that the use, character, and related programs of the operation respects rural character, is sited to minimize conflicts with adjacent rural neighbours, and existing on- site services and infrastructure can support the use. The proposed expansion may be supportable because it is consistent with the Institutional land use designation of the subject property and provides special needs housing. The existing land use contract would be superceded by the new zone, which is consistent with current municipal practices. In addition, the new facility and site development would have to comply with current municipa l standards for the 2012 BC Building Code, riparian protection, site servicing, and business licensing. Challenges with this application relate to assessing the capacity of the site to support this expanded use. Given the uncertainty of the site’s developable area and its required septic capacity, it is not clear if a rezoning application could yield this property more development potential than the current limits of the existing land use contract have imposed. It is also difficult to determine if the proposal will comply with Official Community Plan policy 4 -35 for consistency with rural character, as a large 3 storey structure near the corner of the intersection of 256th Street and 116th Avenue could appear out of place to existing area residents. It should be noted that institutional developments are exempt from form and character development permit area guidelines. Council could impose design standards by way of a restrictive convenant. Otherwise, it would be challenging to impose design guidelines and landscape treatment on the facility. - 5 - It is noted that the property north of the subject site is within the Agricultural Land Reserve, and therefore compliance with Policy 6-12 of the Official Community Plan is required, as follows: Maple Ridge will protect the productivity of its agricultural land by:… b) Requiring agricultural impact assessments (AIAs) and Groundwater Impact Assessment of non-farm development and infrastructure projects and identifying measures to off-set impacts on agricultural capability. For this proposal, traffic impacts of the proposed expansion should be considered in the Agricultural Impact Assessment. The applicant has provided a preliminary concept plan that appears to conform to the preliminary assessment of developable area for the building footprint only. However, parking and septic field locations have not been identified on site. Review by qualified professionals for environmental, septic, and geotechnical considerations is required, which could reduce the developable area or occupant capacity further. In addition, a qualified professional would be required to assess if the existing water capacity and drainage infrastructure could support such an expanded facility. A further concern is that this proposal may result in a loss of affordable and special needs housing stock, as the new rents proposed will be significantly higher than currently charged. Although legally non-conforming with regards to siting, it is not clear at this time that the existing building is at the end of its useful life. Section 3.2 of the Official Community Plan notes the following objective: To recognize that mixed socio-economic housing contributes positively to overall community health, and to facilitate the provision of special needs housing within the D istrict (including social housing, community care facilities, transition housing, shelter housing and supportiv e housing units) for people with physical, mental, and /or lifestyle challenges. To address this concern, a professional appraisal of financial feasibility of the existing facility is recommended to assist Council in the decision making process. Tenant Relocation: The applicant has advised that a transition plan would be made for existing tenants, but details have not yet been provided. For guidance on the proposed tenant relocation plan, it should be noted that the City has developed policy guidelines for the protection of tenants of manufactured home parks prior to redevelopment occurring. Some of the requirements of the Modular Home Park policy could be pertinent to this application. These include a qualitative survey of residential housing preferences, affordable housing options on the subject site with opportunities for tenants to continue their tenancy there, and a commitment to hire a qualified professional to assist tenants with this change by identifying satisfactory housing options. Metro Vancouver Regional Growth Strategy: Metro Vancouver is responsible for the development and implementation of the Regional Growth Strategy (RGS) as it pertains to its member municipalities, including the City of Maple Ridge. The subject property is designated Rural in the RGS, which defines rural lands as follows: Rural areas are intended to protect the existing character of rural communities, landscapes and environmental qualities. Land uses include low density residential development, small scale commercial, industrial, and institutional uses, and agricultural use s that do not require the provision of urban services such as sewer or transit. Rural areas are not intended as future urban development areas, and generally will not have access to regional sewer services. - 6 - On this basis, institutional uses outside of Metro Vancouver’s Urban Containment Boundary are intended to be small scale and able to be served with on -site sewer provisions (i.e. septic). It is not clear at this time that a 4645 m2 (50,000 square ft.) facility on this 0.86 hectare (2.1 acre) site could be adequately served with septic. Housing Action Plan: Strategy #9 of the Regional Growth Strategy states the following: Support the non-market housing sector. Recommended actions in support of this objective include working with Fraser Health, BC Housing, and other institutions to address the shortage of supportive and seniors housing. The current proposal could potentially eliminate 19 units and 38 beds for clients with limited incomes. The proposal does not state the number of units that would be provided, but the applicant indicates that the rents charged with the new construction will be in the range of $2500 to 4500 per month, which is significantly higher than current rates charged. Land Use Contract: The subject property is not zoned, but is subject to a Land-Use Contract (LUC). Provincial legislation provided for LUC’s between 1973 and 1979. Unless discharged through a rezoning process, the LUC remains in place and dictates the land use and siting requirements for the site. The Land Use Contract in place establishes the parking requirements on site, and sets a maximum limit of 38 guests with 4 residential units for staff. Pertinent excerpts from the Land Use Contract are attached to this report as Appendix F. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the property located at 11581 256 Street from a Land Use Contract to P-2 (Special Institutional) to permit an expanded facility. The P-2 Special Institutional Zone allows for Private Hospital which is defined as a use providing for the care of the sick, injured, or aged other than in a public hospital; includes private hospitals, convalescent homes, nursing homes, hospices, palliati ve care units, community care facilities, multi-level care facilities and adult daycare centres. The minimum lot size for the proposed P-2 Special Institutional Zone is 668m2. Aside from noted exemptions, variations from the requirements of the proposed zone will require a Development Variance Permit application. The P-2 Zone has a maximum lot coverage of 40% for Private Hospital, and a maximum floor space ratio of 50%. These thresholds are high for a rural area, where on -site sewage disposal is required. Subdivision and Development Servicing Bylaw: The Subdivision and Development Servicing Bylaw notes that, P-2 zones which are located in the rural area as designated on the Official Community Plan may be exempted from the requirement to provide sanitary sewer systems, underground wiring, boulevard treatment, street tree planting, sidewalks, curbs, and/or street lighting. As these exemptions are specified in the bylaw, no Development Variance Permit would be triggered if these services could not be provided. Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.9 of the OCP, a Watercourse Protection Development Permit application is required to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and riparian areas. In addition, pursuant to Section 8.10 of the OCP, a Natural Features Development Permit application is required for all development and subdivision activity or building permits for: - 7 -  All areas designated Conservation on Schedule “B” or all areas within 50 met res of an area designated Conservation on Schedule “B”, or on Figures 2, 3 and 4 in the Silver Valley Area Plan;  All lands with an average natural slope of greater than 15 %;  All floodplain areas and forest lands identified on Natural Features Schedule “C” to ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of the natural environment and for development that is protected from hazardous conditions. For processing purposes, these requirements can be combined into a single development permi t. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting is required for this application. Prior to Second Reading the applicant is required to host a Development Information Meeting in accordance with Council Policy 6.20. e) Interdepartmental Implications: In a preliminary review, the Engineering Department notes that no road dedication would be required on either fronting street, however, road works to a Rural Local standard would be required on 116 Avenue and road works to a Rural Arterial standard would be required along 256 Street. There is no sanitary service to the site or the surrounding area; therefore, the site would continue to be serviced by a septic system. In order to advance the current application, after First Reading, comments and input will be sought from internal departments and external agencies listed below: a) Fire Department; b) Parks Department; c) School District; d) Utility companies; e) Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure; f) Fisheries & Oceans Canada; g) Ministry of Environment; and h) Canada Post. i) Fraser Health The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become necessary, as the application progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above. This application has not been forwarded to the Engineering Department as a formal referral; therefore, an evaluation of servicing requirements has not been undertaken. This evaluation is anticipated to take place between First and Second Reading. f) Early and Ongoing Consultation: In respect of Section 879 of the Local Government Act for consultation during an Official Community Plan amendment, it is recommended that no additional consultation is required beyond the early posting of the proposed OCP amendments on the City’s website, together with an invitation to the public to comment. - 8 - g) Development Applications: In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as re quired by Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879–1999 as amended: 1. An OCP Application identifying conservation lands (Schedule A); 2. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule B or Schedule C); 3. A Watercourse Protection Development Permit Application (Schedule F); 4. A Natural Features Development Permit Application (Schedule G); As noted, items 3 and 4 (above) may be combined into one application. The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the assessment of the proposal progresses. h) Alternatives: Based on concerns noted in this report, deferral is the recommended approach. More detailed analysis of the proposal should be explored, with an assessment of developable area, septic capacity, and supportable levels of development. Information about tenant needs should be provided, along with discussion of the proposed tenant relocation plan. A financial feasibility study of the existing facility and its continued potential to meet community need is also recommended. This information will provide the required background for an informed review and consideration by Council. Council also has the op tion of denying this application or of giving it first reading. 1 a) If Council prefers to grant first reading to the bylaw, the following Resolution would apply: That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7161-2015 be given first reading; and That requirement for consultation In respect of Section 879 of the Local Government Act during the development or amendment of an Official Community Plan, Council must consider whether consultation is required with specifically: i. The Board of the Regional District in which the area covered by the plan is located, in the case of a Municipal Official Community Plan; ii. The Board of any Regional District that is adjacent to the area covered by the plan; iii. The Council of any municipality that is adjacent to the area covered by the plan; iv. First Nations; v. School District Boards, greater boards and improvements district boards; and vi. The Provincial and Federal Governments and their agencies. It is recommended that no additional consultation be required in respect of this matter beyond the early posting of the proposed Official Community Plan amendments on the City’s website, together with an invitation to the public to comment, and; That the applicant provide further information as described on Schedules A, C, F, G, I and J of the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879 – 1999. 1 b) If Council prefers to deny this application, the following Resolution could be considered: That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7161-2015 not be given first reading; - 9 - CONCLUSION: The development proposal could be considered supportable for first reading, given the requirements of the Development Procedures Bylaw. The proposal complies with the Official Community Plan, and the site has been used as a care facility for approximately 40 years. The provision of special needs housing is identified as a priority in the Official Community Plan and therefore, there is no conflict between this land use proposal and overall community objectives. However, in consideration of this proposal, and the information required to allow it to proceed further, it is recommended that additional information be provided and assessed prior to first reading. It is recommended that Council not require any further additional OCP consultation. It is expected that once complete information is received, Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7161-2015 will be amended and an OCP Amendment to adjust the Conservation boundary may be required. At this time, the proposed facility has not been reviewed in relation to the relevant bylaws and regulations governing rezoning applications. “Original signed by Diana Hall”________________________ Prepared by: Diana Hall, MA, MCIP, RPP Planner 2 “Original signed by Christine Carter”____________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL, MCIP, RPP Director of Planning “Original signed by Frank Quinn”_______________________ Approved by: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.

To proceed further with this application additional information is required as outlined below. RECOMMENDATIONS: That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7158-2015 be given first reading; and That the applicant provide further information as described on Schedule B of the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879–1999, along with the information required for a Subdivision application. DISCUSSION: a)Background Context: Applicant: Jonathan Craig Owner: Wade Gienow Legal Description: Parcel “E” (Reference Plan 3460) District Lot 242 Group 1 Except: The North 180 Ft., New Westminster District OCP: Existing: Urban Residential Zoning: Existing: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Proposed: R-1 (Residential District) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Church Zone: P-4 (Place of Worship) Designation: Institutional South: Use: Vacant (Fortis Right-of-Way) Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Designation: Urban Residential 1102 - 2 - East: Use: Residential; Lions Park Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Designation: Urban Residential; Park West: Use: Residential Zone: RG (Group Housing Zone) Designation: Urban Residential Existing Use of Property: Single Family Residential Proposed Use of Property: Single Family Residential Site Area: 0.33 Ha (0.8 acres) Access: Laity Street and 212 Street Servicing requirement: Urban Standard b) Site Characteristics: The subject property is 0.33 ha (0.8 acres) in size and is bound by St. Paul’s Lutheran Church to the north, single family residential and Lions Park to the east, a vacant lot owned by FortisBC Energy Inc. with a Fortis Gas Right-of-Way to the south and townhomes to the west (see Appendix A). The subject property is flat with some sparse vegetation located throughout the site. There is an existing house on the property that will require removal. c) Project Description: The applicant proposes to rezone the subject property, from RS -1 (One Family Urban Residential) to R-1 (Residential District) to permit future subdivision into six single family residential lots not less than 371 m² (see Appendix C). Three of the lots will be accessed from Laity Street, while the other three lots will be accessed from 212 Street. It is noted that the proposed lot sizes are significantly larger than the minimum R-1 (Residential District) requirements. The larger lot size of 530 -540 m² will ensure compatibility with the existing lot sizes in the neighbourhood. At this time the current application has been assessed to determine its compliance with the Official Community Plan (OCP) and provide a land use assessment only. Detailed review and comments will need to be made once full application packages have been received. A more detailed analysis and a further report will be required prior to second reading. Such assessment may impact proposed lot boundaries and yields, OCP designations and Bylaw particulars, and may require application for further development permits. d) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: The OCP designates the property Urban Residential, and development of the property is subject to the Major Corridor infill policies of the OCP. These policies require that development be compatible with the surrounding nei ghbourhood, with particular attention given to site design setbacks and lot configuration with the existing pattern of development in the area. The proposed rezoning to R-1 (Residential District) is in conformance with the Urban Residential designation and infill policies. Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the property located at 12117 Laity Street from RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) to R-1 (Residential District) to permit subdivision into approximately 6 single family residential lots. The minimum lot size for the current RS-1 (One - 3 - Family Urban Residential) zone is 668 m2, and the minimum lot size for the proposed R-1 (Residential District) zone is 371 m2. Any variations from the requirements of the proposed zone will require a Development Variance Permit application. Advisory Design Panel: A Form and Character Development Permit is not required because this is a single family project, therefore this application does not need to be reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel. Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting is required for this application. Prior to second reading the applicant is required to host a Development Information Meeting in accordance with Council Policy 6.20. e) Interdepartmental Implications: In order to advance the current application, after first reading, comments and input, will be sought from the various internal departments and external agencies listed below: a) Engineering Department; b) Operations Department; c) Licences, Permits & Bylaws; d) Fire Department; e) School District; f) Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure; and g) Canada Post. The above list is intended to be indicative only and it may become necessary, as the application progresses, to liaise with agencies and/or departments not listed above. This application has not been forwarded to the Engineering Department for comments at thi s time; therefore, an evaluation of servicing requirements has not been undertaken. We anticipate that this evaluation will take place between first and second reading. f) Development Applications: In order for this application to proceed the following information must be provided, as required by Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879–1999 as amended: 1. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule B); and 2. A Subdivision Application. The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the assessment of the proposal progresses. - 4 - CONCLUSION: The development proposal is in compliance with the OCP, therefore, it is recommended that Council grant first reading subject to additional information being provided and assessed prior to second reading. The proposed layout has not been reviewed in relation to the relevant bylaws and regulations governing subdivision applications. Any subdivision layout provided is strictly preliminary and must be approved by the City of Maple Ridge’s Approving Officer. “Original signed by Adam Rieu” _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Adam Rieu Planning Technician “Original signed by Christine Carter” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL, MCIP, RPP Director of Planning “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.

Council granted first reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7070-2014 and Official Community Plan (OCP) Bylaw No. 7086-2014 on May 27, 2014. The minimum lot size for the current RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) zone is 668 m2. Note that Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7070-2014 has been amended since it received first reading on May 27, 2014 to exclude the property located at 12040 248 Street from the current application to the C-2 (Community Commercial) zone. The Commercial and Industrial Strategy prepared by GP Rollo and Associates discusses commercial nodes located in various locations of the City. Through a development enquiry on the subject site, GP Rollo and Associates was asked to prepare a comparison on the viability of a commercial node at 248 Street and Dewdney Trunk Road and the impacts it may have on the historic commercial node located at 256 Street and Dewdney Trunk Road in Webster’s Corner. That addendum to the Commercial and Industrial Strategy was presented to Council in September 2013, and indicates that a commercial node at 248 Street and Dewdney Trunk Road would be viable based on its location and inclusion in the Greater Vancouver Fraser Sewer Area. The addendum has been included as an attachment to this report as Appendix H. The creation of a new Village Commercial category in the OCP will provide a greater level of commercial opportunities in key locations within the City. The intent of the Village Commercial category is to serve as an intermediary scale between the Community Commercial Nodes and Neighbourhood Commercial Centres, incorporating limited components of each category. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1)That, in accordance with Section 879 of the Local Government Act, opportunity for early and on-going consultation has been provided by way of posting Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7086-2014 on the municipal website and requiring that the applicant host a Development Information Meeting (DIM), and Council considers it unnecessary to provide any further consultation opportunities, except by way of holding a Public Hearing on the bylaw; 1103 - 2 - 2) That Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7086-2014 be considered in conjunction with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan; 3) That it be confirmed that Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7086-2014 is consistent with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan; 4) That Maple Ridge Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7086-2014 be given second reading and be forwarded to Public Hearing; 5) That Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7070-2014 be amended as identified in the staff report dated July 20, 2015, be given second reading, and be forwarded to Public Hearing; 6) That the following terms and conditions be met prior to final reading: i) Registration of a Rezoning Servicing Agreement as a Restrictive Covenant and receipt of the deposit of a security, as outlined in the Agreement; ii) Amendment to Official Community Plan Schedule "B"; iii) Road dedication as required; iv) Registration of a Reciprocal Cross Access Easement Agreement; v) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for protecting the Residential Parking and Visitor Parking; vi) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for Stormwater Management; vii) Registration of a Housing Agreement in accordance with Section 905 of the Local Government Act and a Restrictive Covenant stating that the second floor of Building 2 will be restricted to residential rental units; viii) In addition to the site profile, a disclosure statement must be submitted by a Professional Engineer advising whether there is any evidence of underground fuel storage ta nks on the subject property. If so, a Stage 1 Site Investigation Report is required to ensure that the subject property is not a contaminated site. DISCUSSION: 1) Background Context: Applicant: Rudy Di Giovanni Owner: 0981077 BC Ltd. Legal Description: Lot 22 Section 23 Township 12 NWD Plan 15267 OCP: Existing: Commercial (Neighbourhood) Proposed: Commercial - with the creation of a new Village Commercial category - 3 - Zoning: Existing: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Proposed: C-2 (Community Commercial) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Office (Albion FC) Zone: CS-1 (Service Commercial) Designation: Commercial South: Use: Single-Family Residential Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Designation: Estate Suburban Residential East: Use: Single-Family Residential Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Designation: Estate Suburban Residential West: Use: High School (Garibaldi Secondary) Zone: P-1 (Park and School) Designation: Institutional Existing Use of Property: Vacant Proposed Use of Property: Commercial Site Area: 0.195 ha (0.48 acres) Access: 248 Street; Dewdney Trunk Road Servicing: Urban 2) Background: The current application is proposing to rezone the subject property, located at 24815 Dewdney Trunk Road, from RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) to C-2 (Community Commercial) to permit the construction of two commercial buildings with six commercial units on the ground floor and two rental residential units on a second floor. At a later date the owner intends to rezone the lot north of the subject property, located at 12040 248 Street, from CS-1 (Service Commercial) to C-2 (Community Commercial) to align zones with the southern lot. The application at first reading included both properties to be rezoned; however, just the lot at 24815 Dewdney Trunk Road will proceed to C-2 (Community Commercial) at this time. It is the applicant’s intention to assess the needs of the surrounding area with the current application and then develop the northern lot based on those needs. The OCP amendment to the proposed Village Commercial however, will include both the southern and northern properties. 3) Project Description: Form and Character: The proposed development will contain two commercial buildings with a total of six commercial units on the ground floor and two rental residential units on a second floor. Proposed Building 1 is a single storey structure that will contain one commercial unit. The total area of Building 1 is approximately 160 m² (1,723 ft²), which the applicant is intending to lease to a food tenant. Building 2 will consist of five commercial units on the ground floor and two rental residential units above on the second floor. A housing agreement will be put in place to keep the residential units as rental space only and a Restrictive Covenant will be registered on title for residential parking. The floor space for the commercial component of Building 2 is approximately 413 m² (4,443 ft²) and the floor space of the two residential units on the second floor combined is approximately 219 m² (2,358 ft²). Building materials will consist of hardie board painted in the traditional colours of yellow, - 4 - red, blue and green. A charcoal metal roof will be used for both buildings; goose-neck lighting to accentuate signage; black framed aluminum cased windows; and black metal awnings covering the outer windows. Circulation and Parking: Access to the subject property is proposed from 248 Street, as well as a second proposed access in the form of a right-in-only, westbound, from Dewdney Trunk Road. The required amount of parking for the development site is 24 stalls, however, 39 stalls are being provided, including 2 for the residential units, 2 small car, 1 for persons with disabilities and 1 designated for a loading bay. Part of the property to the north will be used as additional parking with access to the this site provided through a Cross Access Easement Agreement (see Appendix D). Pedestrian connectivity is provided throughout the development via raised stamped concrete crossings and various access points from both frontages. Landscaping: Landscaping will occur along the two property frontages of Dewdney Trunk Road and 248 Street. The existing cedar trees will remain along the eastern property boundary, along with additional cedar hedges and a cedar fence to separate the neighbouring properties. An outdoor patio is proposed on Building 1, along with a cedar pergola. Outdoor amenity space with landscaping and bench seating is to be located on the interior portion of the development, in order to deter students from the schools congregating in front of proposed Building 1 (see Appendix D). 4) Planning Analysis: i) Official Community Plan: The development site is located at the intersection of Dewdney Trunk Road and 248 Street and is outside of the Urban Area Boundary identified on Schedule “B” of the Official Community Plan. The current commercial classification for this location is Neighbourhood Commercial, as outlined in Section 6.3.6 of the Official Community Plan (Bylaw No. 7060- 2014). A new commercial category of ‘Village Commercial’ is being proposed through this development application, supported by the recommendations of the Commercial and Industrial Strategy. GP Rollo and Associates were asked to evaluate the viability of an expansion to the Neighbourhood Commercial Node at the intersection of Dewdney Trunk Road and 248 Street, including the impact it could have on the Historic Commercial Node of Webster’s Corners located at Dewdney Trunk Road and 256 Street. The addendum to the Strategy was presented to Council in September 2013, and indicates that a Commercial Node at 248 Street and Dewdney Trunk Road would be viable based on:  its strategic location in east Maple Ridge to capture increased commercial demand as the population grows; and  its inclusion in the Greater Vancouver Fraser Sewer Area. The addendum to the Strategy has been included in Appendix H to this report. - 5 - Proposed Village Commercial Policies Issues:  Population growth in east Maple Ridge and in existing developed areas has created a need for Village Commercial Nodes outside of the Urban Area Boundary.  Village Commercial Nodes are comprised of commercial developments that typically serve more than one neighbourhood and provide a range of daily convenience shopping and limited community retail opportunities. Commercial space within the Village Commercial Node is typically less than 2,400m2 (25,833 ft2) in area.  Property designated commercial at 248 Street and Dewdney Trunk Road is within the Metro Vancouver Fraser Sewer Area and for that reason is suitable for Village Commercial development. Objective:  To facilitate Village Commercial Nodes at key locations throughout the City which provide a mix of daily convenience shopping and limited community retail opportunities. Policies:  Maple Ridge will encourage the development of Village Commercial Nodes that serve a variety of daily convenience and commercial shopping needs within close proximity to established and/or emerging neighbourhoods.  The Village Commercial Node is located outside the Urban Area Boundary but is within the Metro Vancouver Fraser Sewer Area. Similar properties located at other key intersections may also be suitable for Village Commercial development.  The establishment of Village Commercial Nodes will serve as an intermediary scale between the Community Commercial and Neighbourhood Commercial nodes that incorporates limited components of each category. As such, they are typically less than 2,400m2 (25,833 ft2) in area.  Commercial developments proposed as part of a Village Commercial Node will be considered subject to satisfying Zoning Bylaw and Parking Bylaw requirements, site access, traffic, must be designed to be compatible with the surrounding area and will be evaluated against the following: o adherence to additional design criteria as detailed in the Section 8 Development Permit Area Guidelines section of the Official Community Plan; o commercial building(s) along the street frontage in the Village Commercial Nodes will typically fall within 25 m of the intersection; o the ability of the existing infrastructure to support the new development. In addition to the new policy category, a number of other amendments to the OCP are required as part of the OCP Amending Bylaw No. 7086-2014 in order to align the ‘Village Commercial Node’ policies within the overall commercial framework. These changes include: - 6 -  Adding ‘Village Commercial Node’ in Section 6.3.1 policy 6-22 as a permitted commercial area outside of the Urban Area Boundary;  Adding ‘Village Commercial Node’ in Section 6.3.2 Commercial Designations as item ‘c)’ following Community Commercial Node;  Deleting the following sentence from the Issues section of the Neighbourhood Commercial Centres: ‘Property designated at 248th Street and Dewdney Trunk Road is within the Metro Vancouver Fraser Sewer Area and for that reason is suitable for neighbourhood commercial development.’; and  Adding ‘Village Commercial Node’ to Appendix E, Figure 2 at the intersection of 248th Street and Dewdney Trunk Road. ii) Zoning Bylaw: The current application proposes to rezone the property, located at 24815 Dewdney Trunk Road, from RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) to C-2 (Community Commercial) to permit the construction of two commercial buildings with six commercial units at ground level and two residentiall units on a second floor. The proposed development would align with the proposed new ‘Village Commercial Node’ category that recommends a maximum of 2,400 m2 (25,833 ft2) of commercial floor space be permitted in this location. The applicant has requested a variance to increase the height of the buildings to enable the two rental residential units on the second floor, and to reduce the exterior and rear setback requirements. It is important to note that Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7070-2014 has been amended since it received first reading on May 27, 2014 to exclude the property located at 12040 248 Street from the current application to the C-2 (Community Commercial) zone. iii) Proposed Variances: A Development Variance Permit application has been received for this project and involves the following relaxations (see Appendix C):  Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510-1985, Part 7, Section 702, Community Commercial, 6 a: To increase the maximum building height from 7.5 metres (25 ft.) to 10.4 metres (34 ft.).  Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510-1985, Part 7, Section 702, Community Commercial, 7 b: To reduce the minimum rear yard setback from 6 metres (20 ft.) to 1.7 metres (6 ft.).  Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510-1985, Part 7, Section 702, Community Commercial, 7 c: To reduce the minimum exterior yard setback from 3 metres (10 ft.) to 1.9 metres (6 ft.). The requested variances to the C-2 (Community Commercial) zone will be the subject of a future Council report. iv) Development Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.5 of the Official Community Plan, a Commercial Development Permit application is required to address the current proposal’s compatibility with adjacent development, and to enhance the unique character of the community in accordance with the following key development permit guidelines: - 7 - 1. Avoid conflicts with adjacent uses through sound attenuation, appropriate lighting, landscaping, traffic calming and the transition of building massing to fit with adjacent development; 2. Encourage a pedestrian scale through providing outdoor amenities, minimizing the visual impact of parking areas, creating landmarks and visual interest along street fronts; 3. Promote sustainable development with multimodal transportation circulation, and low impact building design; 4. Respect the need for private areas in mixed use development and adjacent residential areas; and 5. The form and treatment of new buildings should reflect the desired character and pattern of development in the area by incorporating appropriate architectural styles, features, materials, proportions and building articulation. v) Advisory Design Panel: The Advisory Design Panel reviewed the form and character of the proposed commercial development and the landscaping plans at a meeting held June 9, 2015. The ADP concerns have been addressed and are reflected in the current plans. The Advisory Design Panel resolution and responses from the project architect are included as Appendix G. vi) Development Information Meeting: A Development Information Meeting was held at Blue Mountain Elementary on July 6, 2015. Four people attended the meeting. A summary of the main comments and discussions with the attendees was provided by the applicant and include the following main points:  Concern about garbage from the development being deposited on Smith Street by local students.  Concern of traffic noise coming in and out of the development and the location of entrance into the site.  Concern that the pedestrian crossing at 248 Street and Smith Avenue is going to be relocated to the south side of the intersection from the existing north side.  Concern about site improvements and drainage. The following are provided in response to the issues raised by the public:  Site maintenance would be done on a regular basis, and would extend to cover the street.  Noise from traffic and parking lot will be buffered, as well as existing traffic noise will be further reduced by the location of the proposed buildings along the east property line (current development) and north property line (future development). Commercial entrance is proposed off 248 Street, and not Smith Ave.  Having the sidewalk on the north side of the intersection allows it to line up with the sidewalk. One local resident had petitioned the City 20 years ago to have it changed to its current location.  Street upgrades, including sidewalks will be provided on all frontages. Stormwater Management is required for the site, and drainage will be directed south. - 8 - 5) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has determined that upgrades are required for curb and gutter, road widening on all frontages, possible sanitary sewer and water service upgrades, sidewalks on all frontages, existing drainage ditches to be eliminated, and street lighting and street trees required. A Traffic Impact Study has been submitted by Creative Transportation Solutions Ltd. (CTS). The Engineering Department has provided feedback on the report, and is working with the applicant and CTS to determine the feasibility of traffic patterns and access to the development site. 6) School District No. 42 Comments: The School District has noted that the subject properties fall within the Blue Mountain Elementary and Garibaldi Secondary school catchments. For the 2014-15 school year, Blue Mountain Elementary is at 65% utilization. In terms of secondary school enrollment capacity, for the 2014- 2015 school year, the student enrolment at Garibaldi Secondary is at 63% utilization, including 290 out-of-catchment students. Therefore, there is available elementary and secondary school capacity for the proposed development. 7) Intergovernmental Issues: Local Government Act: An amendment to the OCP 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 Local Government Act. The amendment required for this application, the creation of a new Village Commercial category, was discussed as part of the preparation of the Commercial and Industrial Strategy. 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. 8) Citizen Implications: A Development Information Meeting was held on July 6, 2015. The results of the concerns expressed at that meeting are discussed above. The Public Hearing will provide an additional venue for citizens to express their concern or support of the development. - 9 - CONCLUSION: The subject application will permit construction of six commercial units and two rental residential units in two buildings. A new commercial land use type is proposed for the intersection of 248 Street and Dewdney Trunk Road. The creation of a new Village Commercial category in the OCP will provide a greater level of commercial opportunities in key locations within the City. The intent of the Village Commercial category is to serve as an intermediary scale between the Community Commercial Nodes and Neighbourhood Commercial Centres, incorporating limited components of each category. It is recommended that second reading be given to OCP Amending Bylaw No. 7086-2014, that second reading be given to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7070-2014, and that application 2014-019- RZ be forwarded to Public Hearing. “Original signed by Adam Rieu” _______________________________________________ Co-Prepared by: Adam Rieu Planning Technician “Original signed by Jim Charlebois” _______________________________________________ Co-Prepared by: Jim Charlebois, MURP, RPP, MCIP Manager of Community Planning “Original signed by Christine Carter” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL, MCIP, RPP Director of Planning “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.Eng GM: Public Works & Development Services “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Concurrence: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.

APPENDIX H - 1 - City of Maple Ridge TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read MEETING DATE: July 20, 2015 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2012-013-RZ FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W SUBJECT: Update Report First and Second Reading Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No.7040-2013 and Second Reading Zone Amending Bylaw No.7041-2013 24152 112 Avenue EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: On February 10, 2015, Council deferred giving second reading to the above-referenced Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7040-2013 and Zone Amending Bylaw No.7041-2013 until an appropriate meeting in July 2015. The deferral was intended to allow time to receive a Facilities Study from School District 42, along with further information from staff on the potential park purchase. On March 5, 2015, an interim letter was received from School District 42, in response to a request from the City of Maple Ridge for clarification on required school sites in the Silver Valley and Albion neighbourhoods. With respect to Albion, the letter stated the following: “In order to accommodate the estimated elementary school enrollment from the Albion area at build out, the School District will have to expand and develop the 104th school site and acquire one additional site in Albion that would, at a minimum, accommodate a school with a nominal capacity of 550 students. Pending further detailed review, it is anticipated the currently designated site at 108th Avenue and 248th Street would suffice.” Note that the School District Strategic Facilities Plan is intended to be completed in October of 2015. In addition to this interim information provided by School District 42, a report on the Park Land Acquisition Process was provided to Council at a workshop on April 20, 2015. This report outlined the funding and acquisition tools used by the City of Maple Ridge, as governed by the Local Government Act and the Land Titles Act. Based on this interim information, it does not appear that the subject property is intended to be developed as a school site. The recommendations from the second reading report dated January 5, 2015 remain the same, as follows: RECOMMENDATIONS: 1)That Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7040-2013 be given first and second reading and be forwarded to Public Hearing; 1104 - 2 - 2) That, in accordance with Section 879 of the Local Government Act, opportunity for early and on- going consultation has been provided by way of posting Official Community Plan Amending B ylaw No. 7040-2013 on the municipal website and requiring that the applicant host a Development Information Meeting (DIM), and Council considers it unnecessary to provide any further consultation opportunities, except by way of holding a Public Hearing on the bylaw; 3) That Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7040-2013 be considered in conjunction with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan; 4) That it be confirmed that Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7040-2013 is consistent with the Capital Expenditure Plan and Waste Management Plan; 5) That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7041-2013, as amended in the Council report dated January 5, 2014, be given second reading and be forwarded to Public Hearing; 6) That the following terms and conditions be met prior to final reading: i) Registration of a Rezoning Servicing Agreement as a Restrictive Covenant and receipt of the deposit of a security, as outlined in the Agreement; ii) Amendment to Official Community Plan Schedule "A", Chapter 10.2 Albion Area Plan, Schedule 1: Albion Area Plan and Schedule “C”; iii) Road dedication on 112 Avenue, as required; iv) Park dedication as required, including construction of multi-purpose trails; v) A letter assuring that removal of all debris and garbage from park land has occurred; vi) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for the geotechnical report which addresses the suitability of the subject property for the proposed development; vii) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for Stormwater Management; viii) Removal of existing buildings; and ix) In addition to the Site Profile, a disclosure statement must be submitted by a Professional Engineer advising whether there is any evidence of underground fuel storage tanks on the subject property. If so, a Stage 1 Site Investigation Report is required to ensure that the subject property is not a contaminated site. DISCUSSION: 1) Background Context: Applicant: Don Bowins Owner: 0780659 BC Ltd. Legal Description: Lot 10, Section 10, Township 12, New Westminster District Plan 809, Except Part Subdivided by Plan 43223 and Plan 43601 - 3 - OCP: Existing: Institutional, Conservation Proposed: Low/Medium Density Residential, Conservation, and Park Zoning: Existing: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Proposed: RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential), with a Density Bonus through the Community Amenity Program, and P-1 (Park and School) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: Low Density Residential, Low/Medium Density Residential, Medium Density Residential, Conservation South: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: Low Density Residential, Conservation East: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: Institutional, Low Density Residential, Low/Medium Density Residential, Conservation West: Use: Single Family Residential Zone: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: Medium Density Residential, Neighbourhood Commercial, Conservation Existing Use of Property: Single Family Residential Proposed Use of Property: Single Family Residential, Park and Conservation Site Area: 4.46 ha (11 acres) Access: 112 Avenue and a proposed new road Servicing requirement: Urban Standard 2) Project Background: The subject property is located at 24152 112 Avenue (see Appendix A). A summary of the project description and planning analysis are provided in the second reading report, dated January 5, 2015 (see Appendix B). The intent of this report is to provide updated information from School District 42 with respect to school sites in the Albion neighbourhood. On March 5, 2015, an interim letter was received from School District 42 (see Appendix C), in response to a request from the City of Maple Ridge for clarification on required school sites in the Silver Valley and Albion neighbourhoods. With respect to Albion, the letter stated the following: “In order to accommodate the estimated elementary school enrollment from the Albion area at build out, the School District will have to expand and develop the 104th school site and acquire one additional site in Albion that would, at a minimum, accommodate a school with a nominal capacity of 550 students. Pending further detailed review, it is anticipated the currently designated site at 108th Avenue and 248th Street would suffice.” Note that the School District Strategic Facilities Plan is intended to be completed in October of 2015. In addition to School District 42 information, Council had also requested information on Park Land Acquisition. A report on the Park Land Acquisition Process was provided to Council at a workshop on - 4 - April 20, 2015. This report outlined the funding and acquisi tion tools used by the City of Maple Ridge, as governed by the Local Government Act and the Land Titles Act (see Appendix D). In order to purchase the neighbourhood park proposed in this development application, an appraiser retained by the City of Maple Ridge will determine the fair market value for the park land. The Manager of Properties and Risk Management will bring a separate report to Council to consider acquisition of the property for park purposes once a value has been determined and appropriate funding is available. This report will need to be presented to Council and an agreement on the purchase amount of the neighbourhood park will need to be reached prior to giving final reading to the Official Community Plan Amending and Zone Amending Bylaws. Based on this interim information, it does not appear that the subject property is intended to be developed as a school site. Therefore, the recommendations from the second reading report dated January 5, 2015 remain the same. 3) Alternatives: Should Council not be satisfied with the interim information provided by School District 42, Council may choose to defer second reading, pending the outcome of the Facilities Consultation and Strategic Plan, scheduled for October 2015. Alternatively, Council may defeat the amending bylaws. CONCLUSION: It is recommended that first and second reading be given to Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7040-2013 (see Appendix E), that second reading be given to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7041-2013 (see Appendix F), as presented in the second reading report, dated January 5, 2015 , and that application 2012-013-RZ be forwarded to Public Hearing. “Original signed by Michelle Baski”__________________ Prepared by: Michelle Baski, AScT, MA Planner 1 “Original signed by Christine Carter”__________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL, MCIP, RPP Director of Planning “Original signed by Frank Quinn”______________________ Approved by: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.Eng.

The applicant intends to choose the Density Bonus option within the RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) zone, which is specific to the Albion Area, enabling single-family lot sizes of a minimum of 371 m². The required amenity fee of $3,100.00 for each lot less than 557 m² will be collected by the Approving Officer at the subdivision approval stage. The subject property is currently designated Institutional and Conservation and was intended for a joint school and park site. However, a letter from School District 42 was received on November 10, 2009, indicating that at the time, they were not in a position to purchase the subject property for a school. Comments received from School District 42 on November 5, 2014 state that the information provided in the November 10, 2009 letter has not changed and will not change until after a Facilities Consultation and Strategic Facilities Plan has been completed. This consultation is expected to occur by October 2015. It is our understanding that School District 42 has purchased two lots on 104 Avenue (24137 104 Avenue and the adjacent property to the west) and have noted that these properties are considered the priority school site in Albion. Seigel Creek is located along the length of the western property line, and the setback area for the steep slopes and creek will be dedicated as park for Conservation. In addition, approximately 0.81 hectares (2 acres) of parkland is proposed to be purchased by the City of Maple Ridge (the City) for a Neighbourhood Park, in the northeast portion of the subject property. This application requires an amendment to the Official Community Plan (OCP) to re-designate the land use from Institutional to Low-Medium Density Residential and Park, and to adjust the area designated Conservation around the watercourse and steep slopes. APPENDIX B - 2 - On January 14, 2014 Council gave first reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7041-2013 to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) and considered the early consultation requirements for the OCP amendment.

The applicant intends to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS- 1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) and P-1 (Park and School) to allow for future subdivision into approximately 25 lots and a neighbourhood park. The applicant intends to choose the Density Bonus option within the RS-1b (One Family Urban (Medium Density) Residential) zone, which is specific to the Albion Area, enabling single-family lot sizes of a minimum of 371 m². The required amenity fee of $3,100.00 for each lot less than 557 m² will be collected by the Approving Officer at the subdivision approval stage. 3)3)3)3) Planning Analysis:Planning Analysis:Planning Analysis:Planning Analysis: i.i.i.i. Official Community PlanOfficial Community PlanOfficial Community PlanOfficial Community Plan:::: The subject property is located within the Albion Area Plan and is currently designated Institutional and Conservation. For the proposed development, an OCP amendment will be required to re- designate the eastern half of the property, currently designated Institutional, to Low/Medium Density Residential and Park, and the western half of the property, currently designated Conservation and Institutional to Conservation (see Appendix B). In order to proceed with the change in land use from Institutional to Low/Medium Density Residential, a referral to School District 42 was sent, seeking their comments on whether or not the subject property is within their long-range capital plan. The School District submitted a letter dated November 10, 2009, indicating that at that time they were not in a position to proceed with development of a school. Comments received from School District 42 on November 5 and 25, 2014, state that the information provided in the November 10, 2009 letter has not changed and will not until after a Facilities Consultation and Strategic Plan has been completed. The School Board expects that this work will be completed by October 2015. The School District 42 owns two lots on 104 Avenue (24137 104 Avenue and the adjacent property to the west) and have noted that these properties are considered the priority school site. The application is in compliance with the following Albion Area Plan Community Amenity Program policies: - 5 - 10 - 4 A Density Bonus through the Community Amenity Program will be permitted on lands designated Low Density Residential, Low-Medium Density Residential and Medium Density Residential in the Albion Area Plan. 10 - 5 Where a Density Bonus option is utilized in a single-family subdivision, an Amenity Contribution is to be applied to all of the single-family lots in the subdivision that exceed the base density permitted in the zone. 10 - 7 Maple Ridge Council may consider Density Bonuses as part of the development review process for Albion Area Plan amendment applications seeking a land use designation change that would permit a higher density than currently permitted. 10 - 8 A Density Bonus will only be permitted on those lands that are located entirely within the boundaries of the Albion Area Plan and Urban Area Boundary. The application is also in compliance with the Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6996–2013, that permits a Density Bonus option in the Residential Low/Medium Density designation in the Albion Area Plan. The applicant intends to apply the Density Bonus option to this project, as discussed in the Project Description above. ii.ii.ii.ii.

For this project, there is sufficient land that is proposed to be dedicated as park for Conservation on the subject property on the west side, and this land will be required to be dedicated as a condition of Final Reading. In addition, approximately 0.81 ha (2 acres) of park land is proposed to be purchased by the City for a Neighbourhood Park, in the northeast portion of the subject property. 4)4)4)4) Environmental Implications:Environmental Implications:Environmental Implications:Environmental Implications: A 30 m setback has been provided from the top of bank of Seigel Creek. A small tributary running east-west near the northern end of the property was initially identified as “indefinite” and it was later determined that there was no watercourse or tributary located in that area. Therefore, no additional setback was required for this tributary. The Environmental Impact Assessment, the Enhancement proposal, the Arborist Report, the Geotechnical Report, and the Stormwater Management plan have been reviewed. The geotechnical consultant is to coordinate their recommendations with the environmental consultant, civil engineer, and arborist to ensure the environmental objectives are achieved. Restoration measures with a cost estimate and security deposit are required, including a five-year maintenance period. 5)5)5)5) Interdepartmental Implications:Interdepartmental Implications:Interdepartmental Implications:Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering Department:Engineering Department:Engineering Department:Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has identified the services required in support of this rezoning application.

The applicant has provided a proposed plan of subdivision indicating approximately 0.81 hectares (2 acres) of land for the Neighbourhood Park. This information will be shared with an appraiser retained by the City to determine fair market value for the park land. The Manager of Properties and Risk Management will bring a separate report to Council to consider acquisition of the property for park purposes once a value has been determined and appropriate funding is available. 6)6)6)6) IntergovernmentIntergovernmentIntergovernmentIntergovernmental Issues:al Issues:al Issues:al Issues: Local Government ActLocal Government ActLocal Government ActLocal Government Act:::: An amendment to the OCP requires the local government to consult with any affected parties and to adopt related bylaws in compliance with the procedures outlined in Section 879 of the Local Government Act. Section 879 of the Local Government Act requires that Council give consideration to whether consultation with one or more of the persons, organizations, and authorities should be early and ongoing. Council must specifically consider whether consultation is required with the authorities listed in item (2) of Section 879 below. “Consultation during OCP development Section 879 (1) During the development of an official community plan, or the repeal or amendment of an official community plan, the proposing local government must provide one or more opportunities it considers appropriate for consultation with persons, organizations and authorities it considers will be affected. (2) For the purposes of subsection (1), the local government must: a. Consider whether the opportunities for consultation with one or more of the persons, organizations and authorities should be early and ongoing, and i. The board of the regional district in which the area covered by the plan is located, in the case of a municipal official community plan, ii. The board of any regional district that is adjacent to the area covered by the plan, iii. The council of any municipality that is adjacent to the area covered by the plan, iv. First nations, v. School district boards, greater boards and improvement district boards, and vi. The Provincial and federal governments and their agencies. (3) Consultation under this section is in addition to the public hearing required under section 882(3) (d).” - 9 - In addition to the above, Section 881 of the Local Government Act requires consultation with the School Board during the preparation of an OCP amendment: (1) If a local government has adopted or proposes to adopt or amend an official community plan for an area that includes the whole or any part of one or more school districts, the local government must consult with the boards of education for those school districts a. At the time of preparing or amending the community plan, and b. In any event, at least once in each calendar year. 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. School District 42School District 42School District 42School District 42:::: In light of Sections 879 and 881 of the Local Government Act, a referral was sent to School District 42. Comments received from School District 42 on November 5 and 25, 2014, state that the information provided in the November 10, 2009 letter (see Appendix E), has not changed and will not until after a Facilities Consultation and Strategic Plan has been completed. The School Board expects that this work will be completed by October 2015 (see Appendix F). In the Strategic Facilities Review – Phase 1 , dated April 9, 2014, an enrolment growth projection of 141 elementary students for the East Capital Zone was projected. The East Capital Zone encompasses the Albion Area Plan and currently includes six elementary schools: Kanaka Creek Elementary, Albion Elementary, Alexander Robinson Elementary, Whonnock Elementary, Blue Mountain Elementary, and Webster’s Corners Elementary. The Strategic Facilities Review notes the following: “This means the forecasted enrolment growth will need to be accommodated at the other two schools [Blue Mountain Elementary and Webster’s Corners Elementary] or with a new elementary school. The forecasted enrolment at Blue Mountain Elementary is expected to decrease. Currently there are 95 surplus spaces. By 2023, this will increase to 107 spaces. By 2023, although there is forecasted to be some increase in enrolment, Webster’s Corners Elementary is expected to still have 18 surplus spaces. Between these two elementary schools, the total surplus spaces should be 125 students by 2023. A portable classroom could be added on site at either school to accommodate all of the forecasted increase of 141 elementary enrolment until 2023. The school district may also consider requesting Ministry of Education funding for building an additional elementary school, as requested in previous capital plans. This would also provide sufficient space for future enrolment growth beyond 2023.” - 10 - The properties on 104 Avenue, located at 24137 104 Avenue and the adjacent property to the west, are currently owned by the School District. 7)7)7)7) AlternativeAlternativeAlternativeAlternative:::: Council may choose to defer second reading, pending the outcome of the Facilities Consultation and Strategic Plan, scheduled for October 2015.

Within Maple Ridge, the expectation should be that parks will become more important than ever before in overcoming the many challenges the growing City will face in the coming decades. The variety of park uses (and users) allows Maple Ridge’s parks to serve a broad range of individual, social, cultural, economic and environmental needs, and to respond with flexibility to changing demographic needs and community priorities. Park land is strategically identified and acquired in Maple Ridge for a variety of uses. As with most municipalities, planning for the total requisite amount of future park land is typically addressed within the City’s Official Community Plan (OCP) with specific park sites articulated within the individual area plans. Municipal funding and acquisition tools for new park land are primarily granted by the Provincial Local Government Act and the Land Titles Act. Depending on the circumstance, the City can make use of one or more of these tools to acquire land for the various park uses/classifications that make up Maple Ridge’s park land inventory. The funding and acquisition tools largely used by Maple Ridge are defined by the following four categories: Park Land Development Cost Charges (DCC’s) Park Land 5% Dedication or Cash-in-Lieu Designated Conservation Areas and Open Space Designations Park Land Donations/Gifting As the majority of Maple Ridge’s park land funding comes from DCC’s, it is incumbent on the City to maintain its DCC rates at levels reflective of increases in local real estate prices. This will ensure that the requisite funds will always be in place when a particular park site becomes available for acquisition. RECOMMENDATION(S): That Council receives this report for information purposes only. APPENDIX D 2 | P a g e DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Parks and public places are critical components of Maple Ridge’s identity, attractiveness and municipal infrastructure system. As the City continues to grow and urban land use intensifies, parks will become more important than ever before in overcoming the many challenges the City will face in the coming decades. Parks help the community achieve sustainable development patterns, enhance the City’s competiveness and on-going prosperity, aid in community well-being and are a significant factor in place-making and Maple Ridge’s urban identity. Parks give people a place to play and relax, they clean the air and water, help keep people healthy, provide habitat for wildlife and increase the opportunities for learning and environmental stewardship. Parks provide a broad range of benefits to citizens and represent a high return on public investment. Park land is strategically identified and acquired in Maple Ridge for a variety of uses. The variety of park uses (and users) allows Maple Ridge’s parks to serve a broad range of individual, social, cultural, economic and environmental needs, and to respond with flexibility to changing demographic needs and community priorities. A heathy diversity of park uses assists in municipal decision-making, park asset management and the delivery of recreation services. These specific uses can range from neighbourhood parks to recreation parks to community parks or even urban-styled plazas. As with most municipalities, planning for the total requisite amount of future park land is typically addressed within the City’s Official Community Plan (OCP), using population growth projections, and pre-determined park land service standards (i.e. area of park land needed per 1,000 new residents, walking distances relative to a neighbourhood park or similar standard). Current standards give direction as to the location, size and configuration of the land to be purchased or acquired through park land dedication, as well as other planning, servicing and design elements. Planning and development application processes such as rezoning, development permit and subdivision applications provide key opportunities to implement these standards. Parks play important roles in building and sustaining a high quality of life for Maple Ridge residents. Parks have been shown to: • contribute to physical and psychological health; • build civic pride and strengthen residents’ identification with local culture and heritage; • support local prosperity, encourage tourism and generate associated economic benefits; • promote active transportation opportunities; • enhance a city’s natural beauty; and • support a city’s system of green infrastructure. As such, decisions about where, what, and how much land to acquire for parks will have a direct impact on how effective a city’s investment in parks can be in fulfilling these important roles. Municipal funding and acquisition tools for new parkland are primarily granted by the Provincial Local Government Act and the Land Titles Act. Depending on the circumstance, the City can make use of one or more of the tools contained within the legislation to acquire land for the various park uses/classifications that make up Maple Ridge’s park land inventory. The funding and acquisition tools largely used by Maple Ridge are defined by the following four categories: 3 | P a g e Parkland Development Cost Charges (DCCs) The main funding tool that is used by the City of Maple Ridge for park acquisition is the authority to require property developers to pay park land Development Cost Charges (DCCs) as land is approved for residential development. The City has established a DCC Bylaw (Bylaw No. 6462- 2007) and pools the park land DCC revenue to fund the cost of acquiring parks to serve the needs of new residential areas. The primary challenge with this particular tool is that if DCC rates are not kept in alignment with increasing property values, a deficit situation may occur resulting in an insufficient pool of funds to acquire a specific, targeted property. On occasion however, if a park land acquisition has a broader use (i.e. beyond an immediate neighbourhood), minimum funds can be augmented with an assist factor from the City’s general tax revenue. DCC rates should be reviewed and adjusted at regular intervals to ensure they are remaining in alignment with prevailing increases in real estate market values. This can be especially difficult when market prices are appreciating significantly in short periods of time. Note that any changes to the City’s DCC Bylaw require approval by the Province. Park Land 5% Dedication or Cash-in-Lieu Acquisitions: “Non-DCC Parkland” Maple Ridge is authorized through subdivision applications to require developers to dedicate 5% of the subject land (or an equivalent value as cash-in-lieu) for park purposes. This acquisition tool is used to complement other park acquisition tools. When calculating the value of a 5% cash-in- lieu payment, an independent appraisal of the proposed subdivision or development site is undertaken - this ultimately produces the 5% dollar-equivalent figure. Note that these funds are only used to acquire park land for environmentally sensitive areas such as properties adjacent to watercourses or lakes or other environmentally sensitive lands. Designated Conservation Areas and Open Space Designations Depending on the individual perspective, Maple Ridge is either blessed or cursed with a diversity of topography and geography, with steep slopes and myriad watercourses often resulting in undevelopable sections of private property. It is not uncommon for large private parcels of land to be encumbered with designated conservations areas that encompass in excess of 50% of the entire property mass. These designated conservation areas are typically undevelopable and characterized by steep slopes, watercourse areas and/or other geotechnical challenges. They are typically left undeveloped as designated green space at the time of development. When the City acquires an undevelopable, designated conservation area through a rezoning process, no compensation is paid to the property owner. The conservation area is simply severed from the original property and dedicated as Park to the City. An area for future consideration for Staff and Council is related to the funding for ‘Open Space’ as this OCP designation is not specifically funded by DCC’s. ‘Open Space’ is a designation only identified in the Silver Valley Area Plan and typically constitutes otherwise developable land, which is earmarked for preservation due to visual significance, neighbourhood connectivity or horse trail use. Although Open Space is typically small in size, no formal funding mechanism is in place to acquire it. While the City has been gifted designated Open Spaces by developers and private property owners in the past, if the designated Open Space is deemed developable, it would suggest that compensation could be paid to the property owner at the time of acquisition. This is an issue currently under evaluation by the City’s Planning, Parks and Facilities and Finance departments. Park Land Donations/Gifting On occasion, park land is donated to the City by private landowners, and in some case through land conservancies. The City will always look to encourage land development applicants to donate these lands as well as land encompassing other environmentally significant areas. In 4 | P a g e urban areas of the City, land donations could be further encouraged to help support creation of smaller pocket parks and/or urban squares or plazas. Parts of the proposed Raymond Park and a part of the Maple Ridge Cemetery were gifted to the City. b) Desired Outcome(s): As noted, parks play important roles in building and sustaining a high quality of life for Maple Ridge’s residents, a core desired outcome for the community as a whole. Strategic planning, appropriate funding mechanisms and timely acquisitions of park land contribute strongly to this high quality of life. c) Strategic Alignment The City’s vision statement states a desire to be “among the most sustainable communities in the world” and notes “an ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship and creation of stable and special neighbourhoods”. As noted, the City’s parks along with its vast network of trails help the community achieve sustainable development patterns, enhance its competiveness and on-going prosperity, aid in community well-being and are a significant factor in Maple Ridge’s place-making efforts and urban identity. These all contribute to the City’s ‘special neighbourhoods’. As such, it is incumbent on the City to continue to strategically manage its park acquisition plans and funding models to ensure that these resources (the parks) continue to be developed in order to support the City’s long term vision. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: Continued residential development in the City is a given with Metro Vancouver forecasting Maple Ridge’s population at build-out to exceed 130,000 residents. As such, appropriate park land acquisition planning and funding models are necessary to ensure the delivery of the neighbourhood, recreational, and community parks that the community will require in the future. e) Interdepartmental Implications: The acquisition of new park land requires the ongoing cooperation between the Planning, Parks and Facilities, Recreation, Property & Risk Management, Engineering, Finance as well as other departments, as all have a role to play in regards to the acquisition and eventual park development processes. f) Business Plan/Financial Implications: If DCC rates are maintained at levels reflective of increases in local real estate prices, there is a negligible impact on City’s financial planning as acquisition becomes essentially a ‘zero-sum game’. If the DCC rates are appropriately calculated, targeted parks within the OCP and various Area Plans are acquired as needed with the requisite funding already in place. This of course assumes that development levels are at such point that they provide the necessary funds for the timely acquisitions of parks. g) Alternatives: While Maple Ridge has limited authority under the Local Government Act to impose new policy alternatives, most municipalities continue to work closely with developers to encourage greater voluntary contributions of park land as a means of enhancing the appeal of their respective developments. As well, most municipalities are continuing to closely monitor their DCC rates to ensure that they are in alignment with steadily increasing real estate prices. As such, any alternatives to the Local Government Act provisions would require adjustments to the City’s capital budgeting policy and program. For example, if the City were to take a more aggressive approach to funding its future parks, it could potentially explore a program similar to its Infrastructure Funding Strategy, whereby a percentage of new tax revenue is allocated annually 5 | P a g e to separate capital account for long term infrastructure sustainability. The focus of the new program could be on park and designated Open Space acquisitions. CONCLUSIONS: As noted, Maple Ridge’s vast array of parks give its residents a place to play and relax, they clean the air and water, help keep people healthy, provide habitat for wildlife and increase the opportunities for learning and environmental stewardship. Ensuring that the funding mechanisms and models that are in place are both appropriate and sufficient to ensure ongoing acquisitions is paramount as the community develops into a major suburban centre. “Original signed by Darrell Denton” _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Darrell Denton Property & Risk Manager “Original signed by Bruce McLeod” Prepared by: Bruce McLeod Manager Parks Planning & Development “Original signed by Paul Gill” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Paul Gill, BBA, CGA General Manager: Corporate & Financial Services “Original signed by J.L.

These alterations are a result of a tenant change from Target to Walmart. The applicant has indicated that Walmart Canada is working towards a store opening in late 2015 or early 2016. Given the timing of the Development Permit application with the summer Council meeting break and the scope of work required before opening, Council consideration of this development permit will allow the applicant to move forward to the construction phase in a timely manner. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal application 2015-194-DP respecting property located at 11850 224 Street. DISCUSSION: a)Background Context: Applicant: Stantec Consulting Ltd. Owner: Narland Properties (Haney) Ltd.

The scope of work includes the following:  Changing existing red and beige façade panels and architectural elements to blue and white;  Removal of bullseye signage and addition of Walmart logo and signage on west and south façade;  Changes to asphalt painting from white to yellow in front of main entrance;  Removal of red Target bollards;  Changes to reserved parking area signage;  Change from asphalt to concrete in loading bay; and  Installation of a sanitary grease interceptor. As there are only façade changes involved in this project, the form and character is guided by the current shopping mall design and building materials. The applicant proposes to maintain the existing form and character of the building. The required changes are to reflect Walmart’s corporate brand and operational needs. c) Planning Analysis: Official Community Plan: In accordance with the Official Community Plan Section 8.11 a Town Centre Civic Core Development Permit is required for this proposal and is subject to the following Key Guideline concepts of The Town Centre Civic Core Development Permit Guidelines: - 3 - 1. Promote the Civic Core as the “heart” of the Town Centre 2. Create a pedestrian-oriented, boutique style shopping district 3. Reference traditional architectural styles 4. Capitalize on important views 5. Enhance existing and cultural activities and public open space 6. Provide climate appropriate landscaping and green features 7. Maintain street interconnectivity It is important to note that these Development Permit Guidelines refer to new developments. As this development application is for façade modifications rather than for new construction, the guidelines for architectural style, viewscapes, open space, landscaping, and street interconnectivity are not altered. Additionally, because the existing space will remain a large format retail space, the boutique style shopping district guideline does not apply. Staff have reviewed the proposed changes and conclude that the changes do not negatively impact the current reflection of the key development guidelines. The new tenant will attract business into the civic core, and help promot e activity within the downtown. Zoning Bylaw: The subject property is zoned C-3 (Town Centre Commercial). The proposed façade changes are in compliance with the existing zone, and no changes to building siting or height are included with this application. The C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) zone requires a minimum height of 3 storeys. A Development Variance Permit was previously approved to maintain the existing two storey building height under application 2012-044-DVP. d) Advisory Design Panel: The Advisory Design Panel reviewed the form and character of the proposed façade and site changes at a meeting held July 14, 2015. The Advisory Design Panel made the following resolution: That the application be supported and the following concerns be addressed as the design develops and be submitted to Planning staff for follow-up: 1. Consider alternate texture transition for the pedestrian zone in front of main entry in lieu of speed bumps. Should speed bumps be retained consider alternative texture at east west drive aisles entering onto pedestrian crossing. 2. Consider vertically aligning the pharmacy signage with main Walmart sign. 3. Consider installing landscaping islands were previous cart corals were located. 4. Review and supplement all landscape areas with new plant material for full coverage in all existing landscape areas. 5. Consider weather protection over west exit doors. - 4 - The applicant’s response to the Advisory Design Panel comments and revised drawings will be attached to the development permit to be considered at the July 28, 2015 Council meeting. CONCLUSION: This development application is for façade modification to reflect a change in tenants from Target to Walmart at the Haney Place Mall. It is recommended that the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2015-194-DP respecting property located at 11850 224 Street. “Original signed by Amelia Bowden” _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Amelia Bowden Planning Technician “Original signed by Christine Carter” _____________________________________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL, MCIP, RPP Director of Planning “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.

The requested variance is to: 1.Reduce the front yard setback from 7.5 metres to 6 metres for the garage, and 5.4 metres for building eaves. The lot is negatively impacted by natural rock outcrops which limit the building envelope. The applicant wishes to limit blasting of the rock and thus needs to place the new home further south on the lot. This will require a relaxation to the front yard setback. As the house will be located at the end of a road without immediate neighbours, the relaxation should not negatively affect others. Therefore, it is recommended that Development Variance Permit 2015-173-DVP be approved. RECOMMENDATION: That the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal 2015-173-DVP respecting the property located at 13100 238 Street. DISCUSSION: a)Background Context Applicant: Joel Lycan Current owner: Kris and Janet Rutledge Legal Description: Lot 1, Section 28, Township 12, NWD Plan EPP34654 OCP : Low Density Residential Zoning: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Park Zone: RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Designation Conservation 1106 - 2 - South: Use: Rural Residential and 238 Street Zone: RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Designation: Low Density Residential East: Use: Vacant Zone: RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Designation: Conservation and Open Space West: Use: Park Zone: RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Designation: Conservation Existing Use of Property: Vacant Proposed Use of Property: Single Family Residential Site Area: 892 m2 (9601 sq.ft.) Access: 238 Street Servicing: Urban Standard Previous Applications: 2014-004-SD, RZ/039/10 b) Project Description: Development Variance Permit application 2015-173-DVP has been received to seek approval to vary the front yard setback for the single family home proposed at 13100 238 Avenue (see Appendix A). The requested variance is to reduce the minimum setback from the front property line from 7.5 metres to 6 metres to the wall of the garage, while the eaves on the garage will encroach another 2 ft. (0.6 metres) to 5.4 metres to the furthest projection of the building. c) Variance Analysis: The Zoning Bylaw establishes general minimum and maximum regulations for single family development. A Development Variance Permit allows Council some flexibility in the approval process. The requested variances and rationale for support are described below (see Appendices B and C): Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No 3510 -1985, Part 6, Section 601, C. (3) (c) (i): To reduce the setback from the front lot line, from 7.5 metres to 6 metres for the wall of the garage, and to 5.4 metres for the furthest projection of the building (eaves). The property was part of the subdivision application 2014-004-SD. The property is fairly sloped and has rocks on site. A restrictive GeoTech report was covenanted on Title. There is also an access easement registered to allow access off of 238 Street. The majority of the proposed home is sited to respect this easement on the southeast corner of the property and work with the slopes and rocks. Due to the existing easement and bedrock outcrops on both the lot and the municipal road right -of- way the proposed 2 car garage –as part of the proposed new single family home- has been designed to be ‘side-loaded’ from the east to the west. Without the benefit of a variance, the property owner would need to re-contour the rocks by removing a portion of the existing bedrock face to accommodate the proposed 2 car garage. The owner’s rationale for this application is that he does not want to have to blast the current rock contour in order to be able to realize a 2-car garage. - 3 - The Official Community Plan defines Silver Valley as being characterized by complex, rolling bedrock topography. As a development principle, the existing topography needs to be respected and erosion to be minimized. The restrictive GeoTech covenant will result in signed and sealed approval of the drawings for the proposed dwelling, by the engineer of record, as part of the application for a Building Permit. d) Customer Implications: The owner sought approval for this same variance from the Board of Variance. On June 2, 2015, the Board did not support the variance request. Therefore the applicant is now seeking Council’s approval. In accordance with the Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879-1999, notice of the variance request will be mailed to all owners or occupants of all nearby parcels. CONCLUSION: The proposed variance 2015-173-DVP is supported and should not negatively affect any neighbours. The variance will also avoid the re-design of the planned house for the lot. It is therefore recommended that this application be favourably considered and the Corporate Officer be authorized to sign and seal Development Variance Permit 2015-173-DVP. “Original signed by Therese Melser” _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Therese Melser Planning Technician “Original signed by Chuck Goddard” for _______________________________________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL, MCIP, RPP Director of Planning “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.Eng GM: Public Works & Development Services “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Concurrence: Frank Quinn Acting Chief Administrative Officer The following appendices are attached hereto: Appendix A – Subject Map Appendix B – Requested variances Appendix C - Rationale DATE: Jun 17, 2015FILE: 2015-173-VP BY: PC PLANNING DEPARTMENT SUBJECT PROPERTY ´ Scale: 1:1,500 13100 238 STREETLegend \\Wetlands GPS Creek Centrelines Streams & Rivers (Topographic) Feature Type Indefinite Creek Centreline Ditch Centreline River Centreline Rivers & Lakes (Topographic) Feature Type Canal Flooded Land Lake/Reservoir Marsh River Major Rivers & Lakes APPENDIX A APPENDIX B APPENDIX C City of Maple Ridge TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read DATE: July 20, 2015 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2012-087-SP FROM: Chief Administrative Officer ATTN: Committee of the Whole SUBJECT: Soil Deposit Permit amendment for 25788 98 Ave (2012-087-SP) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY : A request to amend the previously approved Soil Deposit Permit (2012-087-SP) for 25788 98 Avenue has been submitted to the City of Maple Ridge. The request is for the deposit of an additional 14,000 cubic metres (m3) of soil material (approximately 2000 loads) to complete the project in addition to the original deposit estimate of 32,000 m3. The Professional Agrologist (Soils Specialist) and Environmental Consultant of record (Statlu Environmental) has submitted a report that states that between 7,000 m3 and 14,000 m3 is needed to complete the project and the recommendation by the consultant in their report is for the deposit of 14,000 m3. The initial Soil Deposit Permit application was processed under the requirements of the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC) which required Council’s comments and recommendations concerning the proposed fill activity on ALR land prior to forwarding the initial application (with Council’s comments) to the ALC for review. Based on the information provided by the applicant, discussion with ALC staff and review of ALC policies, Municipal Staff supported this application. Council approved through resolution the initial application in November of 2012 and the application was subsequently approved through resolution by the ALC in February of 2014. Work completed under the approved Permit has conformed to the City’s regulations (specifically the Soil Deposit Bylaw No. 5763-1999). This site is 8.0 hectares and is within the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR). The initial application arose from the property owner’s interest to improve agricultural utilization of the property. The initial proposed volume of soil material for deposit at this property was 32,000 m3; approximately 4600 truck loads. The land owner’s proposal consists of an average fill depth of 1.0 metre and the fill area covers approximately 3.8 hectares (9.4 acres). RECOMMENDATION : That the request to increase the total volume of soil to be deposited under the Soil Deposit Permit (2012 -087-SP) for 25788 98 Avenue by 14,000 m3 be limited to an increase in volume of 10,000 m3 and approved through resolution by Council and forwarded to the Agricultural Land Commissio n for their review and approval (under Section 20 (3) of the Agricultural Land Commission Act ). BACKGROUND : Applicant: Al Morris (Co-Pilot Industries Ltd.) Owner: Doreen Keel and Alfred Keel Legal Description: Lot 21, Sec. 1, Tp 12, NWD Plan 43282 Zoning:Existing: 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) OCP :Existing: 100% AGR (Agricultural) 1107 - 2 - Surrounding Uses North: Use: 4 properties, Agricultural and Rural Residential Zone: (2) 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: (2) 100% AGR (Agricultural) Zone: (2) 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: (2) 100% URBRES (Urban Reserve) South Use: Suburban Residential and Rural Residential Zone: 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: 86% SUBRES (Suburban Residential) 14% RURRES (Rural Residential) East Use: 4 properties, Agricultural and Rural Residential Zone: 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: 100% AGR (Agricultural) West Use: 2 properties, Agricultural and Rural Residential Zone: 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Designation: 100% AGR (Agricultural) Existing Use of Property: Agricultural, Single Family Residential Proposed Use of Property: Agricultural, Single Family Residential Access: Spillsbury Street PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The property is located within the Agricultural Land Reserve, not within a floodplain, and over an underground aquifer (Grant Hill Aquifer) that is used for local resident water supply. The mainstem of Sprott Creek flows north to south along the western property boundary. Three tributaries to Sprott Creek flow north to south within the southwestern portion of the property and one tributary flows from the north-west to the south-east across the southeastern corner of the property. Sprott Creek has a 30 metre setback, and provides drainage for properties to the north, east, south and west of the subject property. Of the three tributaries in the south -west corner of the property, the western most tributary would have a 30 metre protective setback. The tr ibutary along the southern boundary of the property would have a 10 metre protective setback from the Top of Ravine Bank. Limited filling and grading work is proposed within the identified protective setbacks, however, the short term filling activity is not expected to negatively affect these watercourses as the appropriate erosion and sediment control measures will be required along with monitoring by a qualified environmental professional. The habitat within the protective setbacks will be restored with native vegetation following completion of the fill and grading work. The applicant is proposing to continue to bring soil onto the property in order to complete the soil deposit project to reduce the uneven terrain that limits the operation of agricultural machinery in certain areas of the property and subsequently the importation of fill is expected to improve soil quality. A soils study completed by Madrone Environmental Services Inc. has concluded that filling according to the company’s prescriptions will improve soil quality from a mixture of Classes 2 – 7 soils to Class 2 soils. The soil deposit work was proposed over 3.9 hectares (49%) of the property. At the end of the project the elevation of the 3.9 hectares will be raised an average of 1.0 metre. - 3 - As of December 2014 the applicant had placed 17,000 m3 of material and it is estimated that the total volume under the current Soil Deposit Permit (of 32,000 m3) is close to completion. The applicant has submitted survey drawings from Wade & Associates Inc., a geotechnical assessment report, proposed contours and fill elevations from Valley Geotechnical Engineering Services Ltd., and a hydrological assessment and soil quality assessment prepared by Madrone Environmental Services Ltd. An amendment to the Hydrological and Soil Quality assessment report from Madrone Environmental Services Ltd. states that the underlying aquifer and subsequently groundwater wells used for residential purposes will not be impacted as a result of the proposed fill activity. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS: There are concerns associated with the potential impacts of filling with regards to management of storm water and water quality during and following the proposed filling activity. Two tributaries to Sprott Creek are located in close proximity to the proposed soil deposit and grading area. The western tributary is located along the western boundary of the fill project and the southern tri butary is located south and downslope of the proposed fill site As a condition of the Permit, the Permit holder will be required to restore riparian habitat along these two tributaries to Sprott Creek and establish protective fencing for these protected riparian areas. The Permit holder has (in compliance with the Watercourse Protection Bylaw) provide d assurances (refundable securities) that adequate stormwater management and erosion and sediment control measures are established for this site to ensure that negative impacts to the adjacent watercourse and neighbouring properties do not occur as a result of this proposed soil deposit project. Statlu Environmental (consultants formerly of Madrone Environmental) has continued to monitor the project and site for stormwater management, erosion and sediment control, and for soil quality. As part of the approvals from the ALC and from the City of Maple Ridge, logs have been required for the sources of imported soils. The ALC has also required refundable secur ities for this project to ensure that the proposed soil improvements are completed. INTERGOVERNMENTAL ISSUES: Agricultural Land Commission: If Council approves the request for additional soil volume the request will be forwarded to the ALC for their review and approval . If the ALC does not approve the amendment, the City cannot amend the existing Permit. If the ALC does approve the amendment, the City is obligated to grant the amendment, however, the City can and will regulate the soil deposit through the requirement of professional reports and assurances, appropriate securities, and permit conditions as permitted by the Maple Ridge Soil Deposit Bylaw (No. 5763 -1999). CITIZEN/CUSTOMER IMPLICATIONS: Residents have expressed concerns related to soil deposit sites and activities located within rural residential areas and in ALR areas within the Municipality. The four most notable concerns that have been raised by residents include impacts to road safety, impacts to road conditions, an increase in noise and environmental impacts as a result of increased truck traffic and site disturbances. Due to recent weather conditions dust control for all Soil Deposit and Development sites is also a recent concern of Maple Ridge Residents. - 4 - Through communication with residents in this area and the contractor responsible for the site road safety was an initial concern but was remedied early in the project by limiting truck traffic to 98 th Avenue and prohibiting use of Spilsbury Rd. by truck traffic so uth of the project site. Another concern raised by residents was over the maintenance of clean road conditions. Through ongoing communication with the contractor, road maintenance activities have improved and roads are regularly cleaned when truck traffic to the site occurs. This Soil Deposit site has been in operation for approximately 1 year (June 2015 approval). Residents on other development and Soil Deposit sites have expressed concern over long term operations related to noise, traffic and general disturbance to residential and rural residential areas. The City has the ability to apply/amend conditions to the Permit in an attempt to address the concerns outlined above. INTERDEPARTMENTAL IMPLICATIONS: Filling, land grading, traffic and road conditions within this rural residential area are issues that affect Planning, Engineering, Building, Enforcement and Operations Departments. Consensus on acceptable risk standards and traffic volumes would provide a consistent approach and requirements for similar proposals for properties in rural residential and agricultural land areas. ALTERNATIVES: The Professional of record is recommending to increase the overall volume of material for deposition by 14,000 m3 (2000 loads) in order to complete the Soil Deposit project. The alternative options to accepting the increase of 14,000 m3 would be to: 1. limit the additional volume to another value in Statlu Environmental’s proposed range of 7,000 to 14,000 m3; or, 2. do not approve an increase in volume and require the contractor complete the work as initially proposed. - 5 - CONCLUSION: Based on the information provided by the applicant, an increase in volume of 10,000 m3 (1430 loads) for the Soil Deposit Permit is supported. The 10,000 m3 volume is considered a reasonable volume that will permit completion of the project as per the Professional report and will limit the extent to which this project continues. It is our understanding that the initial proposed Soil Deposit Permit application provides adequate justification for th is activity to occur on land within the Agricultural Land Reserve. It is recommended that this proposed Soil Deposit Permit amendment be approved through resolution by Council and forwarded t o the ALC. The ALC will determine whether this request for an increase in the soil deposit volume for this approved project would be beneficial to agriculture. “Original signed by Mike Pym” ________________________________________________ Prepared by : Mike Pym, MRM, MCIP, RPP Environmental Technician “Original signed by Chuck Goddard” for _________________________________________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL.

The project has been underway since June, 2014 and is nearly complete. Approximately 7000 m³ to 14000 m³ of fill in excess of the permitted and approved amount is required to complete the project while maintaining the grade of the filled area. Fill Characteristics Topsoil from the site is being stripped in windrows as fill is imported to the site. An acceptable amount of topsoil is being stripped for later use at the surface. I observed good-quality agricultural fill on the site. The soil is composed primarily of fine-textured soils with few coarse fragments (Photo 1). Most of the fill is fine-textured soil from nearby new development along 240th Street (Table 1). The parent material at the source site is similar to the fill site. Both are soils developed in fine-textured, stone-free glaciomarine sediment. APPENDIX B 25788 98th Avenue Fill Site Co‐Pilot 14‐113 March 3, 2015 Page 2 Photo 1: Example of fill imported to site. Note fine texture and absence of coarse fragments. Fill Volume At the September inspection, 1857 loads (~12999 m³) of fill have been imported. As of December 31, 2014, 2433 loads (~17000 m³) have been imported. The volume of fill imported to the site is proving to be insufficient to create the desired even topography across the fill surface. The fill estimate in the original report1 was for 32000 m³ spread over 3.8 ha. The estimated volume of fill was determined by estimating an average thickness of fill over the footprint. This method does not consider the shape of the surface, therefore, depressions in the surface lead to an underestimation in the amount of fill required. In order to address this underestimation, an additional 7000 m³ to 14000 m³ (1000 to 2000 loads) should be allowed on the site. The additional fill will allow for the constructed surface to have even topography from east to west while maintaining the slope of the finished fill surface. This configuration will reduce the complexity of the finished slope, improving machine access on the finished field. 1 Madrone Environmental Services Ltd. 2012. Fill Placement Plan and Hydrological Assessment 25788 98th Avenue, Maple Ridge, BC 25788 98th Avenue Fill Site Co‐Pilot 14‐113 March 3, 2015 Page 3 Source Sites There are several sources of fill (Table 1). I checked source site land uses using both Google maps and online municipal maps. The source site land uses are primarily new development, rural residential, and residential. Such land uses are unlikely to be contaminated and they are acceptable source sites for filling on agricultural land. There were two source sites that I could not check because of ambiguity in the source site address but I suspect they come from undeveloped forested properties. No fill was not tested for potential contamination.

The silt fence on the southwest side of the fill area was overwhelmed during a large precipitation event (Photo 2). The operator built a sump and lined it with clear crush rock to filter fine textured sediment. The sump should prevent additional breaches. The fence was repaired after the breach. There was little evidence of silt deposition outside the fence. Photo 2: Silt fence breach. Note the rock-filled sump. . Recommendations My recommendation from September 22, 2014 requiring replacement of topsoil that was stripped in error has not yet been implemented. The topsoil from that area should be replaced. I recommend that the fill permit/approval be amended to allow for an additional 14000 m³ of fill to create a more even final topography across the filled area. 25788 98th Avenue Fill Site Co‐Pilot 14‐113 March 3, 2015 Page 5 Yours truly, Prepared by: Statlu Environmental Consulting Ltd.

Applicant __________________________________________ Charles R. Goddard Manager of Development and Environmental Services APPENDIX D District of Maple Ridge TO: His Worship Mayor Ernie Daykin MEETING DATE: November 5, 2012 and Members of Council FILE NO: 2012-087-SP FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C of W SUBJECT: Soil Deposit Permit 25788 98 Avenue EXECUTIVE SUMMARY : A Soil Deposit application has been made to the District which falls under Section 20(3) of the Agricultural Land Commission Act. This site is 8.0 hectares and is within the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR). This application arises from the property owner’s interest to improve agricultural utilization of the property. The proposed volume of soil material for deposit at this property is 32,000 cubic metres (m3); approximately 4600 truck loads. The land owner’s proposal consists of an average fill depth of 1.0 metre and the fill area covers approximately 3.8 hectares (9.4 acres). This application is being processed under the requirements of the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC) which requires Council’s comments and recommendations concerning the proposed fill activity on ALR land prior to forwarding the application (with Council’s comments) to the ALC for review. Based on the information provided by the applicant, discussion with ALC staff and review of ALC policies, District Staff support this application. The property is currently farmed and the property has Farm Tax status. Any fill application approved by the ALC will be required to conform to the District’s regulations (specifically the Soil Deposit Bylaw No. 5763-1999). RECOMMENDATION: That the application for a Soil Deposit Permit under Section 20 (3) of the Agricultural Land Commission Act for the property at 25788 98 Avenue be forwarded to the Agricultural Land Commission. BACKGROUND : Applicant: Al Morris (Co-Pilot Industries Ltd.) Owner: Doreen Keel and Alfred Keel Legal Description: Lot 21, Sec. 1, Tp 12, NWD Plan 43282 Zoning: Existing: 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) OCP : Existing: 100% AGR (Agricultural) Surrounding Uses North: Use: 4 properties, Agricultural and Rural Residential Zone: (2) 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) OCP: (2) 100% AGR (Agricultural) Zone: (2) 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) OCP: (2) 100% URBRES (Urban Reserve) - 2 - South Use: Suburban Residential and Rural Residential Zone: 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) OCP: 86% SUBRES (Suburban Residential) 14% RURRES (Rural Residential) East Use: 4 properties, Agricultural and Rural Residential Zone: 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) OCP: 100% AGR (Agricultural) West Use: 2 properties, Agricultural and Rural Residential Zone: 100% RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) OCP: 100% AGR (Agricultural) Existing Use of Property: Agricultural, Single Family Residential Proposed Use of Property: Agricultural, Single Family Residential Access: Spillsbury Street PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The property is located within the Agricultural Land Reserve, not within a floodplain, and over an underground aquifer (Grant Hill Aquifer) that is used for local resident water supply. The mainstem of Sprott Creek flows north to south along the western property boundary. Three tributaries to Sprott Creek flow north to south within the southwestern portion of the property and one tributary flows from the north-west to the south-east across the southeastern corner of the property. Sprott Creek has a 30 metre setback, and provides drainage for properties to the north, east, south and west of the subject property. Of the three tributaries in the south -west corner of the property, the western most tributary would have a 30 metre protective setback. The tributary along the southern boundary of the property would have a 10 metre protective setback from the Top of Ravine Bank. Limited filling and grading work is proposed within the identified protective setbacks, however the short term filling activity is not expected to negatively affect these watercourses as the appropriate erosion and sediment control measures will be required along with monitoring by a qualified environmental professional. The habitat within the protective setbacks will be restored with native vegetation following completion of the fill and grading work. The applicant has proposed to bring fill onto the property in order to reduce the uneven terrain that limits the operation of agricultural machinery in certain areas of the property and subsequently the importation of fill is expected to improve soil quality. A soils study completed by Madrone Environmental Services Inc. has concluded that filling according to the company’s prescriptions will improve soil quality from a mixture of Class 2 to Class 7 soils to Class 2 soils. The applicant is proposing to place 32,000 m3 of soil over 3.9 hectares (49%) of the property. The elevation of the 3.9 hectares will be raised an average of 1.0 metre. The applicant has submitted survey drawings from Wade & Associates Inc., a geotechnical assessment report, proposed contours and fill elevations from Valley Geotechnical Engineering Services Ltd., and a hydrological assessment and soil quality assessment prepared by Madrone Environmental Services Ltd. An amendment to the Hydrological and Soil Qual ity assessment report from Madrone Environmental Services Ltd. states that the underlying aquifer and subsequently - 3 - groundwater wells used for residential purposes will not be impacted as a result of the proposed fill activity. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS: There are concerns associated with the potential impacts of filling with regards to management of storm water and water quality during and following the proposed filling activity. Two tributaries to Sprott Creek are located in close proximity to the proposed soil deposit and grading area. The western tributary is located along the western boundary of the fill project and the southern tributary is located south and downslope of the proposed fill site As a condition of the Permit, the Permit holder will be required to restore riparian habitat along these two tributaries to Sprott Creek and establish protective fencing for these protected riparian areas. If Council supports the Permit and it is approved by the ALC, the Permit holder will be required (in compliance with the Watercourse Protection Bylaw) to provide assurances (refundable securities) that adequate stormwater management and erosion and sediment control measures are established for this site to ensure that negative impacts to the adjacent watercourse and neighbouring properties do not occur as a result of this proposed soil deposit project. INTERGOVERNMENTAL ISSUES: Agricultural Land Commission: Under the existing regulations, if the local government approves, in principle, the Soil Deposit Application, the ALC must review the proposal for Soil Deposit in the Agricultural Land Reserve. If the ALC does not approve the Application, the District cannot grant a Permit. If the ALC does approve the Application, the District is obligated to grant a Permit, however, the District can and will regulate the soil deposit through the requirement of professional reports and assurances, appropriate securities, and permit conditions as permitted by the District of Maple Ridge Soil Deposit Bylaw (No. 5763-1999). It is our understanding that the proposed Soil Deposit Permit application will need to be approved by the ALC as per Section 20 of the Agricultural Land Commission Act. CITIZEN/CUSTOMER IMPLICATIONS: There are ongoing Resident concerns related to existing fill operations located within rural residential areas and in ALR areas within the District. The four most notable concerns that have been raised by residents regarding soil deposit sites and activities in rural areas include impacts to road safety, impacts to road conditions, an increase in noise and environmental impacts as a result of increased truck traffic and site disturbances. The District has the ability to apply conditions to the Permit in an attempt to address the concerns outlined above. INTERDEPARTMENTAL IMPLICATIONS: Filling, land grading, traffic and road conditions within this rural residential area are issues that affect Planning, Engineering, Building, Enforcement and Operations Departments. Consensus on - 4 - acceptable risk standards and traffic volumes would provide a consistent approach and requirements for similar proposals for properties in rural residential and agricultural land areas. ALTERNATIVES: The applicant is asking for a Permit to raise the level, and grade, of approximately 49% of the property. The arguments for depositing the 32,000 m3 (4600 truck loads) include improving soil conditions and improving topographical constraints that currently limit farm use of land on the property. Alternatives that could be considered to provide some improvements would include the following. 1. Grading the land without additional soil material to improve access. 2. Install groundwater/stormwater management system to capture surface water runoff and transfer this water, in a controlled fashion, to Sprott Creek. CONCLUSION : Based on the information provided by the applicant, the Soil Deposit Permit Application is supported. It is our understanding that the proposed Soil Deposit Permit application provides adequate justification for this activity to occur on land within the Agricultural Land Reserve. It is recommended that this proposal be approved through resolution by Council and for warded to the ALC. The ALC will determine whether this non-farm use proposal would be beneficial to agriculture. “Original signed by Mike Pym”_____________________ Prepared by: Mike Pym, MRM, MCIP, RPP Environmental Technician “Original signed by Christine Carter”_________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL.

The Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission reviewed the agreement at its meeting of May 14, 2015 and is forwarding a recommendation to Council for consideration. RECOMMENDATION: That the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association Lease and License Agreement be renewed for a period of five years from the date of signing, with three additional renewal options of five years each; and That the license period to operate the annual Agricultural Fair be extended from three weeks per year to four weeks per year; and further, That the Corporate Officer be authorized to execute the lease and license agreement. “Original signed by Kelly Swift” _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Kelly Swift, General Manager, Community Development, Parks & Recreation Services “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Concurrence: Frank Quinn Acting/Chief Administrative Officer :ik Attachment: PLS Commission Report – May 14, 2015 Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association Lease and License Agreement 1151 \\mr.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2015\2015-07- 20_COW\CDPR\PLSC_MR_Fairgrounds_Lse_Agr_Renew_2015-05-14_Attach.docx SUBJECT: MAPLE RIDGE FAIRGROUNDS LEASE AND LICENSE RENEWAL EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association have requested that their Lease and License for the Agricultural Fairgrounds be renewed for a further five years with the option to renew for a further three terms of five years each. RECOMMENDATION: That a recommendation be forwarded to Maple Ridge Council to renew the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association Lease and License Agreement for a period of five years from the date of signing, with three additional renewal options of five years each; AND, That the license period to operate the annual Agricultural Fair be extended from three weeks per year to four weeks per year. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Bylaw #566 was adopted by Maple Ridge Council in 1961 to reserve the agricultural fairgrounds for the purpose of holding the annual Agricultural Fair held by the Maple Ridge Agricultural Association. The bylaw also acknowledges that the former fairgrounds site was relinquished by the Agricultural Association in favour of moving the fair to its current site. The Agricultural Association celebrated their 114th annual fair last year, and has the distinction of being the oldest surviving association in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows. The Association has grown to become a very popular attraction for our community and also for the region. Participants have competed in various 4H categories from communities throughout BC including, Cowichin Valley, Salmon Arm, North Okanagan and even Prince George. Many of the other agricultural fairs in the region have either disappeared or are much smaller than they once were. Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows, however, now has the largest 4H show in BC and has exceeded the PNE. The association strongly believes that the “free gate” has played a significant role in the growth of the annual event at the Albion fairgrounds. b) Desired Outcome: For the Lease License agreement to be renewed to accommodate future agricultural fairs for the residents of Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, as well as guests from other parts of the Province. c) Strategic Alignment: Safe and Livable Community: by providing for community volunteer opportunities and encouraging active and healthy living amongst citizens. Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission Report REGULAR MEETING May 14, 2015 \\mr.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2015\2015-07- 20_COW\CDPR\PLSC_MR_Fairgrounds_Lse_Agr_Renew_2015-05-14_Attach.docx d) Citizen/Customer Implications: The Agricultural Fair attendance increased from approximately 15,000 in 2013 to over 18,000 in 2014. The Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows fair has continued to grow year over year, when other fairs are disappearing or reducing their events. This is very likely a testament to the dedication of the volunteers who organize and coordinate the annual fair in our community. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: The Agricultural Association has been provided with a small special event fund of approximately $3,500 which is intended to be used for in kind services from the municipalities. Since the association removed the entrance gate charges a few years ago the association have also been receiving a $12,000 grant from the City of Maple Ridge and a $3,000 grant from the City of Pitt Meadows. f) Policy Implications: Final approval of the Lease License renewal falls under the purview of the City of Maple Ridge. g) Alternatives: Maple Ridge Council could choose not to renew the Lease License agreement, however this is not being recommended by staff. The Maple Ridge Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association has become a “Heritage Organization” in our community, and has contributed significantly to Agricultural advocacy and education throughout its rich history. CONCLUSIONS: The Agricultural Association contributes to Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows in so many ways in addition to the Annual Fair. These dedicated volunteers are also the dr ivers behind the “Ghost Ridge Haunted House”, and of course the Christmas Hamper Society. They also contribute to Pitt Meadows Day and Earth Day events in both communities. Staff recommends that the Lease and license for the Agricultural Fairgrounds be renewed for a further five years with the option to renew for an additional three terms of five years each. “Original signed by David Boag” Prepared By: David Boag Director, Parks and Facilities “Original signed by Kelly Swift” Approved By: Kelly Swift General Manager, Community Development Parks & Recreation Services :db Attachment – Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows 1 \\mr.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2015\2015- 07-20_COW\CDPR\Ag lse lic\MR_PM_Ag_Assoc_Lse_Lic_2015.docx LEASE AND LICENCE AGREEMENT MAPLE RIDGE FAIRGROUNDS THIS INDENTURE made in triplicate as of the 14th day of May, 2015, but actually executed on the day of , 2015 BETWEEN THE CITY OF MAPLE RIDGE, a Municipality incorporated under the "Municipal Act", having its office at 11995 Haney Place, in the Municipality of Maple Ridge, in the Province of British Columbia (hereinafter called the "Landlord") OF THE FIRST PART AND THE MAPLE RIDGE PITT MEADOWS AGRICULTURAL ASSOCIATION, a society duly incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, and having its office situated at 22448 - 105th Avenue, in the Municipality of Maple Ridge, in the Province of British Columbia (hereinafter called the "Tenant") OF THE SECOND PART WITNESS: That in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter contained, the parties hereto hereby covenant and agree each with the other as follows: 1.

The report went back to the Commission in June and the recommendations are now referred to Council for consideration. A copy of the April and June Commission reports are attached as background information. RECOMMENDATIONS: a)That the Festival Fund grant awarded to the Agricultural Association be combined with other municipal grant funding under a Commission administered Operating Grant agreement; and b)That an amount of $12,000 be allocated from the Maple Ridge Community Grant toward a multi-year Operating Grant with the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association to be administered by the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission. “Original signed by Kelly Swift” _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Kelly Swift, General Manager, Community Development, Parks & Leisure Services “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Concurrence: Frank Quinn Acting/Chief Administrative Officer :ks Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission Report s - April 9 and June 11, 2015 Agricultural Association Operating Agreement 2015 1152 \\mr.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2015\2015-07- 20_COW\CDPR\Ag op agr\PLSC_Ag_Assoc_Operating_Agr_Update_2015-06-11_Attach.docx SUBJECT: Agricultural Association – Operating Agreement Update EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The City of Maple Ridge has a long history with the Maple Ridge -Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association (Association) and a history of agreements with the Association for its use of park space for agricultural programs. The Commission previously approved a proposed Operating Agreement for the Association in April 2015, however the agreement contained language that was a duplication of the lease/license agreement for the Agricultural Fairgrounds, therefore staff are recommending the attached amended version that is exclusive to the Operating Agreement language and sections be approved. It has been identified that the Operating Agreement should not overlap in regards to any reference to the lease/license arrangements. It is recognized that the two agreements need to be coordinated to ensure alignment with the lease/license agreement. The Operating and Lease/License Agreements have not been forwarded to Maple Ridge Council in order for Commission to consider the proposed amendments to the Operating Agreement. When approved, the documents will be forwarded to Maple Ridge Council at the same time. RECOMMENDATION: That the amended Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association Operating Agreement be received and approved; AND, That the updated Operating Agreement be forwarded to Maple Ridge Council for consideration. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: The Operating Agreement contains a number of clauses which appear to be a duplication of clauses in the Lease/License Agreement with the Agriculture Association. The proposed amended Operating Agreement is attached. The amendments include:  All references to the Lease including the legal land description, booking times and duration, equipment, and site cleanliness and safety, have been deleted.  Clarification throughout the document that the operating funds are provided t o support the annual production of the Country Festival and the agricultural programs and services.  References to the operation of the Fairgrounds have been removed and further clarification outlined as a Parks and Facilities responsibility.  Overholding clause was deleted and clarification of renewal options to specify three consecutive options to renew the Agreement, each option being for a further term of three years on the same terms and conditions which aligns with other similar agreements. b) Desired Outcome: To have the Operating Agreement and Lease/License Agreement in alignment.

Funding for the Association for 2015 has been approved by Commission under the Festival Fund budget envelope. Since the March meeting, the municipal grant for the Association was approved for $12,000. In addition, it should be noted that there was a clause in the Agreement that allows either party to cancel the agreement with notification, specifically 6 months notice (180 days). CONCLUSIONS: The Operating Agreement with the Agricultural Association demonstrates civic support of a historical legacy that showcases agriculture and farming for future generations. In addition, it aligns with the agreements in place with community partners. Staff recommends that the Commission approve the amended Operating Agreement and that it be forwarded to Maple Ridge Council for approval. “Original signed by Yvonne Chui” Prepared By: Yvonne Chui, Recreation Manager, Arts & Community Connections “Original signed by Sue Wheeler” Reviewed By: Sue Wheeler Director, Community Services “Original signed by Kelly Swift” Approved By: Kelly Swift General Manager, Community Development Parks & Recreation Services :yc Attachments: Agricultural Association Operating Agreement (revised) Agricultural Association Operating Agreement – PLSC Report April 9, 2015 \\mr.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2015\2015-07- 20_COW\CDPR\Ag op agr\PLSC_Ag_Assoc_Operating_Agr_2015-04-09_Attach.docx SUBJECT: AGRICULTURAL ASSOCIATION – OPERATING AGREEMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This report recommends that Commission and Councils work to streamline the funding structure for the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association (Agricultural Association). At this time, the recommendation pertains to the City of Maple Ridge Community Grant and the Festivals Support Fund Grant by proposing that Commission recommend to the City of Maple Ridge that the annual Community Grant allotment typically provided to the Agricultural Association be combined with the annual Festival Fund that the Agricultural Association also receives, and that both be administered by Commission under an Operating Agreement structure which is a longer-term vehicle that requires renewal at three year intervals rather than an annual process. RECOMMENDATION: That the Festival Fund grant awarded to the Agricultural Association be combined with other municipal grant funding under a Commission administered Operating Grant agreement; and, That a recommendation be forwarded to Maple Ridge Council to allocate $12,000 from the Maple Ridge Community Grant toward a multi-year Operating Grant with the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Agricultural Association to be administered by Commission; and, That upon endorsement by Maple Ridge Council, that the Chair and General Manager, Community Development, Parks and Recreation Services be authorized to execute the proposed Operating Agreement dated 2015-04-15 with the Agricultural Association. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: The Association, formed on June 15, 1901, has a long history in the community and the City of Maple Ridge has always made an effort to ensure that the Fair has a permanent site. Originally located in the heart of Maple Ridge, the Fair moved to its site in 1956 when the c urrent Fairgrounds were purchased for that specific purpose. The original commitment of the Association at the time of its inception is one that it still works to live up to today. Although the wording has changed over time, the Association remains committed to promoting and educating the public about the importance of agriculture in our daily lives. The Association has worked hard to develop a National and Provincial award winning, family-oriented, educational annual event. The event is named “Maple Ridge – Pitt Meadows COUNTRY FEST” and is held near the end of July each year. In 2008, the Association was at a crossroads faced with the uncertainty of bad weather impacts and dropping attendance due to the rising gate admission fees. At that time, it was recognized that for community fairs to survive the funds generated from the admission fee needed to come from another consistent source of funding. As a result, through the City of Maple Ridge Community Grant, the Association has received an annual amount of $12,000. This consistent Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission Report REGULAR MEETING April 9, 2015 \\mr.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2015\2015-07- 20_COW\CDPR\Ag op agr\PLSC_Ag_Assoc_Operating_Agr_2015-04-09_Attach.docx funding has paid off as Country Fest continues to thrive and grow with a healthy annual attendance of approximately 18,000 people over the weekend festival. Fair organizers report that this consistent funding has allowed them to move to a free admission format that has contributed to maintaining a family-oriented audience and strong attendance rate. In the April 8, 2014 City of Maple Ridge Community Grants Council report it was noted that for organizations such as the Association that receive funding from more than one municipal source, that staff would be reviewing these grants to explore the efficiencies of administering the grants under one agreement administered by Commission. Staff have completed this review and are recommending that the Maple Ridge Community Grant annual fund be combined with the Festivals Support Fund annual allocation under an Operating Agreement. Currently, the Agricultural Association holds a lease agreement wi th the City of Maple Ridge, and is awarded funding through three separate municipal sources. An update to the lease agreement between the City of Maple Ridge and the Agricultural Association that pertains to the use of the Fairgrounds is underway now and will be coming forward in the near future. The three Municipal funding sources that support the Agricultural A ssociation are described below. 1. A City of Maple Ridge Community Grant of $12,000. The City of Maple Ridge Community Grant fund was first awarded in 2008 under a Fee for Service Agreement that focused on the Association accepting responsibility for hosting the annual Country Fair at a low cost making it accessible for families (through elimination of the gate entrance fee), providing agricultural education activities, and participating in the Agricultural Advisory Committee of Council. 2. A Fee for Service Agreement with the City of Pitt Meadows of $3,000. The City of Pitt Meadows entered into a Fee for Service Agreement with the Association ($3,000) at the same time as Maple Ridge did with a contribution that was proportional ly based on population to the City of Maple Ridge agreement. The City of Pitt Meadows Agreement is not the subject of this report; however, staff suggest that this structure be reviewed at the conclusion of the term of their current agreement to consider including all funding under one operating agreement. The Fee for Services Agreement with the City of Pitt Meadows is in effect until the end of 2016. 3. A Festivals Support Fund grant of $5,000 administered by Parks and Leisure Services Commission. Under the Festival Support Fund the Association receives an annual grant of $5,000 that includes in-kind support specifically for the Country Fest event. This grant, which has been approved by Commission for this calendar year, is primarily focused on supporting the Country Fest program. For clarity we should note that in addition to the municipal grants, a significant portion of the Agricultural Associations operating budget is generated through fundraising, revenue generation and other grant opportunities. The above grant structure creates a complex application and approval process that can be streamlined through the creation of one operating agreement that incorporates the above components. An additional benefit is the provision of greater assurance of a sustainable funding model to the Agricultural Association. As with other recent Commission agreement updates, the format of an Operating Agreement is being proposed to replace the former Fee for Service Agreement structure. The Operating \\mr.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2015\2015-07- 20_COW\CDPR\Ag op agr\PLSC_Ag_Assoc_Operating_Agr_2015-04-09_Attach.docx Agreement structure is recommended to address concerns related to service taxation and also to better position these not-for-profit organizations to receive grant funding from other sources. The proposed Operating Agreement is consistent with the new agreement templates developed this year for major community partners and some highlights include:  The proposed Agreement was changed from a Fee for Service format to an Operating Agreement to reflect the current practice but more importantly to remove any barriers for the Association to raise funds as an independent society.  The proposed Agreement has been streamlined with the Lease documents, which are pending renewal.  Performance focus areas have been clarified and outlined. Upon approval staff will work with the Association to design a reporting framework.  The Proposed Agreement outlines the Associations’ role in regards to programming and services including the provision of educational and cultural activities and events related to farming and agriculture, as well as a commitment to providing low cost family-oriented opportunities designed to increase citizen understanding and connection to agriculture. b) Desired Outcome: The desired outcome is to increase education and understanding of the importance of agriculture and food security in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows and provide assistance towards the sustainability of this long standing community-based organization. c) Strategic Alignment: Recommendations align with the 2010 Parks, Recreation and Culture Master Plan directions (6.5 Cultural Facilities, Arts Culture and Heritage), the Commission’s Asset Based Community Development and Volunteer Policies. d) Citizen/Customer Implications: The proposed Agreements contribute to encouraging positive agricultural opportunities, education and citizen engagement in local agriculture and food security, as well as the development of a safe, affordable, vibrant, and livable community. Agriculture is recognized as an important aspect of a community’s cultural life and the Association contributes to this by providing low cost family-oriented opportunities. e) Business Plan/Financial Implications: The proposed Agreements align with the business plan goals. Funding for the Association for 2015 has been approved by Commission under the Festival Fund bud get envelope. The 2015 City of Maple Ridge Community Grant funding is pending approval but it includes a recommendation of $12,000 in funding toward the Agricultural Association as has been the past practice. Staff’s recommendation is that these funds be combined under the proposed annualized Operating Agreement subject to Commission’s annual budget approval. The Operating Agreement is proposed for a 3 year term which is consistent with all other agreements with community partners and funding is subject to regular budget approvals. CONCLUSIONS: Since 1901 the Agricultural Association has been embedded in the history of both communities with a strong tradition of hosting the annual Country Fest Fair. The Association supports agriculture through the provision of educational activities and services and the operation of the Fairgrounds for the community. Furthermore, the Association has been recognized by provincial organizations for its \\mr.corp\docs\CA\01-Admin\0550-Council-Mtgs-Public\20-COW\01-Gen\Agendas\2015\2015-07- 20_COW\CDPR\Ag op agr\PLSC_Ag_Assoc_Operating_Agr_2015-04-09_Attach.docx leadership in fairs and exhibitions. One example is a community engagement award received in 2014. These agreements will be more effectively and efficiently managed under one operating agreement and will provide a measure of stability for the Association to leverage other fundraising activities and secure the site to celebrate agricultural history. “Original signed by Yvonne Chui” Prepared By: Yvonne Chui, Recreation Manager, Arts & Community Connections “Original signed by Sue Wheeler” Reviewed By: Sue Wheeler Director, Community Services “Original signed by Kelly Swift” Approved By: Kelly Swift General Manager, Community Development Parks & Recreation Services :yc Attachment – Agricultural Association Operating Agreement C:\Users\ingridk\AppData\Local\Temp\5\Framework\Agricultural_Assoc_Operating_Agr_2015- 17_Draft_revised2_149E64F.doc 1 AGRICULTURAL ASSOCIATION OPERATING AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT made as of the 15th day of April, 2015 BETWEEN: CITY OF MAPLE RIDGE 11995 Haney Place, Maple Ridge, B.C.V2X 6A9 (the “City of Maple Ridge”) AND CITY OF PITT MEADOWS,12007 Harris Road, Pitt Meadows, B.C.

City of Maple Ridge TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read MEETING DATE: July 20, 2015 and Members of Council FILE NO: FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: COW SUBJECT: Haney Farmers Market – Operating Agreement EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission reviewed the Haney Farmers Market Society operating agreement at its meeting of April 9, 2015. A copy of the Commission report is attached as background information. The report was held pending Council approval of the Community Grants allocation (completed May 12, 2015) and, to consider this request at the same time as the Agricultural Association Operating Agreement. RECOMMENDATIONS: (a) That the Festival Fund grant awarded to the Haney Farmers Market be combined with other municipal grant funding under an Operating Grant agreement with the Haney Farmers Market; and, (b) That an amount of $6,000 be allocated from the Maple Ridge Community Grant toward a multi- year Operating Grant with the Haney Farmers Market Society to be administered by the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission. “Original signed by Kelly Swift” _______________________________________________ Prepared by: Kelly Swift, General Manager, Community Development, Parks & Leisure Services “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Concurrence: Frank Quinn Acting/Chief Administrative Officer :ks Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission Report April 9, 2015 Haney Farmers Market FFS Agreement 1153 SUBJECT: HANEY FARMERS MARKET SOCIETY PROPOSED OPERATING AGREEMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Haney Farmers Market Society (HFMS) currently receives funding through the Commission Festival Fund in the amount of $1,500 to support two special events that are hosted at expanded markets. Over the past several years, the HFMS also has been receiving funding in the amount of $6,000 under the City of Maple Ridge Community Grant program. This funding is focused on supporting economic viability and sustainability of the market. The intent of this report is to request that Commission consider, and recommend to Maple Ridge Council, that these two annual funding sources be combined and incorporated into an Operating Agreement with HFMS to be administered by Commission. Parks and Leisure Services has supported the development of the Haney Farmers Market from the market concept initiated through Neighbourhood Development processes, through to the present time where the HFMS hosts 30 market days and participates in a wide variety of community initiatives. There are many research sources that expound benefits that a farmers market has for a community which range from: their potential to sustain and support the local food system and contribute to community sustainability; to contributing to the local economy by acting as a catalyst for local food production; and by benefiting local business by creating increased interest in shopping by residents; to contributing to community health, wellness, and vibrancy. At the same time that many sources site Farmers Markets as successful components to creating vibrant sustainable communities, it is also evident that municipal investments are necessary to ensure the financial sustainability of markets, as is the case of the Haney Farmers Market. The 2015 Business Plan directed staff to research the possibility of combining funding sources and entering into an Operating Agreement with the Haney Farmers Market. The conclusion and recommendation is to combine funding sources and to enter into a multi-year Operating Grant as is proposed in this report. Entering into the proposed Operating Agreement with HFMS would contribute to continuing to strengthen the capacity and sustainability of the HFMS and would provide a mechanism to manage these grants more efficiently and effectively. RECOMMENDATION: That the Festival Fund grant awarded to the Haney Farmers Market be combined with other municipal grant funding under an Operating Grant agreement with the Haney Farmers Market; and, That a recommendation be forwarded to Maple Ridge Council to allocate $6,000 from the Maple Ridge Community Grant toward a multi-year Operating Grant with the Haney Farmers Market Society to be administered by Commission; and, That upon endorsement by Maple Ridge Council, that the Chair and General Manager, Community Development, Parks and Recreation Services be authorized to execute the proposed Operating Agreement dated 2015-04-01 with the Haney Farmers Market Society. Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Parks & Leisure Services Commission Report REGULAR MEETING April 9, 2015 DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: The HFMS has been operating a weekly market in Memorial Peace Park since 2004. The market grew out of a grassroots Neighbourhood project that Parks and Leisure Services supported which included a strong philosophy that remains today. The HFMS focuses on building community, creating connections and partnerships, and working collaboratively. Since its inception the Market has grown substantially and continues to be a major contributor to the vibrancy of the downtown on weekends. The Society has traditionally been funded through a variety of sources including vendor fees, fundraising initiatives, and grants from a variety of sources. Although the number of vendors, and subsequently the number of shoppers, has continued to increase, this source of revenue is insufficient to fund the market to the financial level required to support the management and operation of the market. Although the market has continued to explore outside funding sources, they have not been able to secure ongoing sustainable funding. This is in fact not unique to the Haney Farmers Market. The BC Farmers Market Association has pointed out that the majority of markets have similar experiences and have to rely on some sort of municipal support to be sustained. The municipal contribution is typically viewed as an investment that results in a multitude of benefits to the community; both social and economic. Therefore, as the Haney Farmers Market continues to evolve, the recommendation in this report will streamline annual application processes and establish sustainable seed funding that will carry the market successfully into the future. The proposed agreement includes standard conditions and a term of three years; with three options to renew. The agreement also indicates that although a three year agreement is proposed, the agreement is subject to annual Commission budget approvals. Staff have worked with the HFMS to draft this agreement and are confident that this agreement will support the HFMS in providing a vibrant opportunity for farmers, businesses and residents for many years to come. b) Desired Outcome: Beginning weekly in May and running until November, farmers, local businesses and residents will have a common meeting place and share in a vibrant atmosphere, where there are opportunities to learn about and purchase local food. c) Strategic Alignment: Supporting the Market’s efforts to work towards sustainability aligns with the Commission’s goal of promoting healthy community initiatives that are accessible to all of our citizens. This initiative also aligns with the Parks, Recreation and Culture Master Plan objectives related to urban agriculture. d) Business Plan/Financial Implications: Funding for the HFMS has traditionally occurred through a grant from the City of Maple Ridge in the amount of $6,000 (last three years) and $1,500 from Festivals (for the last two years). The Festival Support Fund grant relates specifically to two community events that the market participates in with an expanded program. Therefore, the suggested amount for this proposed agreement is $7,500 yearly for three years; with options to renew for three terms. The HFMS will also continue to receive in-kind contributions of access to municipal equipment including tables, chairs, and other related materials during each market over the course of the agreement. CONCLUSIONS: This proposed Operating Agreement is an example of the community development approach used in building the capacity of stakeholders to create unique opportunities that are accessible to all citizens. In a recent study (2012) the HFMS was recognized as a “significant economic player in the local economy,” with an estimated impact of nearly $1.6 million annually. Parks and Leisure Services has also supported the work of the Society to secure a space for the market in a public space, provide amenities to support the operations of the market, support promotions, help reduce bylaw barriers, and assistance in facilitating relationships that are beneficial to all. The Haney Farmers Market is truly something the community can all be proud of. “Original signed by Tony Cotroneo” Reviewed By: Tony Cotroneo Manager, Youth, Seniors & Neighbourhood Development “Original signed by Sue Wheeler” Reviewed By: Sue Wheeler Director, Community Services “Original signed by Kelly Swift” Approved By: Kelly Swift General Manager, Community Development Parks & Recreation Services :ds Attachment – Proposed Haney Farmers Market Society Operating Agreement 1 HANEY FARMERS MARKET SOCIETY OPERATING AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT made as of the 15th day of April, 2015 BETWEEN: CITY OF MAPLE RIDGE 11995 Haney Place, Maple Ridge, B.C.V2X 6A9 (the “City of Maple Ridge”) AND CITY OF PITT MEADOWS, 12007 Harris Road, Pitt Meadows, B.C.

(e)Whenever the Landlord becomes entitled to re-enter upon the Premises under any provision thereof, the Landlord in addition to all other rights it may have shall have the right as agent of the Tenant to enter the Premises and re-let them and to receive the rent therefor and as the agent of the Tenant to take possession of any furniture or other property thereon and to sell the same at public or private sale without notice and to apply the proceeds thereof and any rent derived from re-letting the Premises upon account of the Rental due and to become due hereunder and the Tenant shall be liable to the Landlord for the deficiency if any. (f)The Tenant waives and renounces the benefit of any present or future statute taking away or limiting the Landlord's right of distress and covenants and agrees that notwithstanding any such statute none of the goods and chattels of the Tenant on the Premises at any time during the Term shall be exempt from levy by distress for Rental is arrears. The Tenant will not (except in the normal course of business) sell, dispose of or remove any of the fixtures, goods, or chattels of the Tenant from or out of the Premises during the term without the prior written consent of the Landlord and the Tenant agrees that it will, at all times, be the owner of its goods and chattels and will not create any mortgage, conditional sale or other encumbrance of such goods or chattels. The Tenant further agrees that if it leaves the Premises leaving any Rent unpaid, the landlord, in addition to any remedy otherwise provided by law, may seize and sell the good and chattels of the Tenant at any place to which the Tenant or any other person may have removed them, in the same manner as if such goods and chattels had remained upon the Premises. 7.It is hereby agreed that if the Tenant shall hold over other than by way of renewal after the expiration of the Term or any renewal thereof and the Landlord shall accept rent, the new tenancy thereby created shall be a tenancy from month to month and not a tenancy from year to year, and shall be subject to the covenants and conditions herein contained so far as the same are applicable to a tenancy from month to month, and the rent payable under such monthly tenancy shall be one hundred and fifty percent (150%)of one twelfth of the Rental payable for the last twelve (12) months of the Term.

The letter requests that Maple Ridge Council implement a minimum 1 km distance rule for all future beverage alcohol retailers in Maple Ridge. As a result of this, the Planning Department has been requested to review the pertinent information and provide preliminary information to Council. This memorandum dated July 20, 2015, entitled “Bill 22 – 2015 Special Wine Store License Auction Act” provides a preliminary review of background information. The memorandum identifies 2 options for Council’s consideration. DISCUSSION: 1)Background Context: Council received a letter dated June 18, 2015, from the Alliance of Beverage Licensees (ABLE BC) (see Appendix A) regarding the recent Legislature passing of Bill 22 – 2015 Special Wine Store License Auction Act (Bill 22). Bill 22 authorizes the General Manager of the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch to conduct auctions for the right to apply for special wine store licenses to be issued under the Liquor Control and Licensing Act. These licenses will authorize the sale, from locations approved by the General Manager within specified grocery stores, of wine, cider and sake made from British Columbia (BC) agricultural products. Only a prescribed number of these licenses will be issued or existing licenses transferred. Bill 22 also amends the Liquor Control and Licensing Act to allow for regulation exempting certain classes of licensed facilities from the requirement that licensees own the business carried on at the establishment and that licensees own or lease the establishment (see Appendix B). The intent of Bill 22 was to modernize BC’s liquor laws, to increase convenience for British Columbians and support BC products. Division 2, Part 14 of the Liquor Control and Licensing Regulation currently requires that licensee retail stores are located a minimum of 1 km from another licensee retail store, or the proposed location of another store. Government liquor stores have agreed, through a memorandum of understanding, that they, too, will comply with that 1 km rule. Bill 22 exempts the Special Wine 1401 Page 2 of 3 Store Licenses from complying with this 1 km distance rule. The definition of a Special Wine Store License is described on page 2 of Appendix B. 2) Planning Analysis The Bill 22 definition established for grocery stores that may contain wine stores is as follows: (a) is primarily engaged in retailing food and non -alcoholic beverages that are specified in the regulations, and (b) has an area of at least 929 m²” (10,000 ft²). Based on the British Columbia Liquor Control and Licensing Branch, Policy Directive No. 15-01, the minimum area is to include storage space. The Liquor Control and Licensing Regulation further defines an “eligible grocery store” to “be primarily engaged in retailing a general line of foods, including canned, dry and frozen food, fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh and prepared meats, fish and poultry, dairy products, baked products and snack foods, and non-liquor beverages, intended for human consumption”. Based on the definition of an eligible grocery store that could apply for a Special Wine License, these are the possible wine store locations: 1. Thrifty Foods, located at 11900 Haney Place 2. Safeway, located at 20201 Lougheed Highway 3. Overwaitea Foods (Save-on-Foods), located at 20395 Lougheed Highway 4. Overwaitea Foods (Save-on-Foods), located at 22703 Lougheed Highway 5. Extra Foods, located at 22427 Dewdney Trunk Road 6. Cooper’s Foods, located at 23981 Lougheed Highway 7. Langley Farmers Market, located at 11935 207 Street These grocery stores, as well as an existing liquor retail store (LRS or private liquor store), BC Liquor Store (BCLS or government liquor store) or wine stores (WS) can relocate to an eligible grocery store. Every grocery store in Maple Ridge would be within 1 km of an existing LRS or BCLS store (see Appendix C). 3) Other Municipalities The City of Kamloops passed a Notice of Motion on June 2, 2015 resolving that the Zoning Bylaw be amended to institute a distance parameter of 1 km for future liquor licenses and stores. A report dated July 9, 2015, indicated the proposed amendment to their Zoning Bylaw, that “No retail liquor sales may occur within 1 km of another retail liquor sales use (as measured in a straight line form the primary retail entrance to the primary retail entrance)” (see Appendix D). The City of Vancouver’s laws still restrict the new stores from opening within 1 km of another liquor store. They are currently reviewing their liquor bylaws in light of the Province’s changes. 4) Options: This memorandum is provided for information only based on a cursory review of the legislation. Depending on whether or not Council supports ABLE BC’s request, Council may direct staff to prepare a report on how to implement a minimum 1 km distance rule for all future beverage alcohol Page 3 of 3 retailers in Maple Ridge. This report would also include a more detailed assessment of the request. Options may include: 1. Establishing a 1 km distance requirement through the Zoning Bylaw; or 2. Allowing the Special Wine Stores to be implemented by the Province (status quo). “Original signed by Michelle Baski ” ________________________________________________ Prepared by : Michelle Baski, AScT, MA Planner 1 “Original signed by Christine Carter” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Christine Carter, M.PL , MCIP , RPP Director of Planning “Original signed by Frank Quinn” _______________________________________________ Approved by: Frank Quinn, MBA, P.

In that time, more than 2100 youth have passed through the program. While the success of the program is well known, the fact of the matter is, it could not operate without your support. To ensure the program's continuing success, we are again, asking you for your support. In this regard, we are excited to inform you we have actively been exploring the possibility of amalgamating the program into the Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Community Services. We believe this will provide administrative and program efficiencies that will strengthen the program. However, concerns over the stability of funding are a factor in the proposed amalgamation. We are asking council to approve three (3) years of funding at the current level of funding you have previously committed to ($15,800). We would be pleased to attend at a council meeting to provide an update on the program and to discuss our funding request. We look forward to hearing from you.
