DISCUSSION: a) Background Context Applicant: Colin A. Hogan of Focus Architecture Inc. Owner: 0724674 BC LTD Legal Description: Lot: 3, D.L.: 399, Block: 6, Plan: 9669; PID: 002-036-690 Lot: 4, D.L.: 399, Plan: 9669; PID: 011-425-253 OCP: Lot: A, D.L.: 399, Plan: LMP 8411; PID: 018-066-496 Existing: Commercial Zoning: Existing: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) Proposed: RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential) Surrounding Uses: North: Use: Proposed Supportive Housing apartment building & Brown Avenue Zone: RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential) Designation: Low Rise Apartment South: Use: Commercial Zone: C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) Designation: Town Centre Commercial East: Use: Commercial and Plaza Street Zone: C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) Designation: Town Centre Commercial West: Use: Single Family Residential; Commercial and 222^d Street Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) and C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) Designation: Town Centre Commercial Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Site Area: Access: Servicing requirement: Companion Applications: Single Family Residential Multi -Family Residential (Apartment) 0.92 acres (3729.99 m2). Plaza Street Full Urban DP/111/10 and DVP/111/10 -2- b) Project Description: The subject site falls within the Civic Core of the Town Centre Area and consists of three legal Parcels, south of Brown Avenue, east of 222nd Street and west of Plaza Street i.e. in the south-east corner of 222nd street and Brown Avenue within the Central Business District of the Town Centre Area. It is surrounded by Brown Avenue and the recently approved Supportive Housing on the north and town centre commercial uses on the south. The 3 parcels will require consolidation prior to final reading and the consolidated gross lot area is roughly 0.92 acres (3729.99 m2). A four storey, wood -frame apartment building with a floor space ratio of 1.4 (86 units) has been proposed with underground parking. The main pedestrian access through a lobby is from 222nd Street and the vehicular access to the underground parkade is from Plaza Street. This proposal is taking advantage of the reduced parking standards applicable for development within the central business district of the Town Centre Area and the unit sizes are geared towards offering affordable housing options to a first-time home buyer. Adequate landscape buffering is proposed along all the property lines. A south and east facing courtyard is proposed facing Plaza Street. c) Planning Analysis: The subject site, located within the central business district, is designated "Town Centre Commercial" as per the Town Centre Area Plan which aligns well with the proposed apartment use and the proposed zone as it is outside "Schedule G" of the Zoning Bylaw. This means that although designated "Town Centre Commercial" a ground floor commercial use is not required and hence a Multi -Family Residential use is permitted in this designation as per policy 3-30 of the Official Community Plan which states "Multi -Family Residential use is permitted as a principle use in the Town Centre Commercial designation, except where identified on Schedule "G" as "Ground Floor Commercial Required" in the Maple Ridge Zoning bylaw, where ground floor use is to be commercial". Appendix A "Zoning Matrix for the Town Centre Area" states under the Town Centre Commercial Zone `Properties designated Town Centre Commercial and not identified as Ground Floor Commercial Required on Schedule "G" of the Zoning Bylaw 3510-1985 may align with zones within the Low -Rise Apartment and Medium and High -Rise Apartment land use category of this Matrix and in compliance with the Town Centre Area Plan. The proposed zone RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential) is supported under the Low -Rise Apartment designation. This application is in compliance with the Town Centre Area Plan designation of the Official Community Plan. The current application proposes to rezone the properties located at 12028, 12038 and 12048 222 Street from RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) to RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential) to permit future construction of a four -storey apartment building with approximately 86 units. -3- The proposed RM-2 (Medium Density Apartment Residential) zone is intended for low to medium density apartment use and permits a maximum floor space ratio of 1.8 times the consolidated net lot area. The usable open space required in this zone is 20% of the consolidated net lot area and the required common activity area in this zone is 1 m2 per unit. The maximum height permitted in this zone must not exceed 15 metres and 4 storeys. The permitted minimum setback from all property lines for this zone is 7.5 metres. It is anticipated that some setback and height variances may be requested for the proposed use. These will be discussed in a future report for Council consideration. ill C,= • •.. S. This proposal is subject to the revised minimum parking standards applicable within the Central Business District of the Town Centre Area due to location. The Town Centre Parking Strategy completed in 2008 revisited parking standards for some uses within the Town Centre Area and include revised parking standards for residents based on unit sizes for a multi family residential use. For this proposal, as per Section 10 of the Maple Ridge Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw 4350- 1990, a .minimum of 0.9 space per studio unit; 1.0 space per one bedroom unit and 1.10 spaces per two bedroom unit, is required to cater to the residents parking requirement and 0.2 space per unit for the visitors parking requirement. Out of the total parking spaces required 10% of them may be for small cars. This proposal requires 86 resident parking spaces and 9 visitor parking spaces, as per the ratios stated above. A total of 9 at grade visitor parking spaces and 90 resident parking spaces underground have been proposed which include two handicapped parking spaces and 9 small car spaces (Appendix D). Long term and short term bicycle parking is also required. Long term bicycle storage lockers have been proposed in the underground parkade and the short term bicycle parking is provided at grade, closer to the main entrance of the building, in a well -lit area visible to pedestrians and cyclists. 26 short term bicycle parking spaces are required as per the ratio of 6 spaces for every 20 units. The applicant is seeking a variance by proposing 16 short term bicycle parking spaces. This will be discussed in a future report for Council consideration. DeNIQpment Permits: Pursuant to Section 8.11 of the Official Community Plan, a Town Centre Development Permit application is required for all multi -family residential, flexible mixed use and commercial development located in the Town Centre. Council will review a Development Permit report at a later date. r_r On January 11, 2011 the Advisory Design Panel reviewed the proposal for form and character. The panel recommended this proposal moving forward with the following concerns to be addressed by the applicant as the design develops and submitted to staff: 0 Consider visitor entry area and how the public will accesses the building -4- • Consider the main entry statement distinguishing it from the adjacent balconies and further review of entry statements for the garden units • Consider carrying the taxis hedge around the hydro kiosk • Consider a plaza area at the corner of Browne and 222^d • Consider more scaled planting at the corner of Brown Ave and Plaza St • Consider at least 12" inches of soil depth for sod • Review the brick veneer locations and tying the various vertical pieces together • Consider addition of more visitor bike stalls • Review adequacy of the garbage enclosure • Review with Engineering Dept, possibility of a drop-off loading bay at the front entrance of 222^d St • Consider addition of wood trim at corners of vinyl sided areas • Review barrier -free let down at corner of 222^d and Brown Ave. • Consider more buffer between amenity room patio and adjacent private patios. The project architect is working on all the revisions which will be forwarded to the panel for review. This will be the subject of a future Council Report. On January 25, 2011 the applicant and team of consultants held the "Development Information Meeting" at the Ridge Meadows Senior Activity Centre at 12150 224t" Street from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. As per Council Policy 6.20, invitations were mailed to qualifying property owners, advertisements were placed in the local paper and a notice was attached to the development sign on site. All the proposed drawings were displayed and presentation made for all interested residents. The developer, project architect and his team were present at the meeting to explain the proposal and address any concerns. This meeting was attended by only one person who is a tenant living at 12038 222^d street (one of the houses on subject site). He had no real concerns, made no written comments and was curious to see what has been proposed. d) Interdepartmental Implications: The Engineering Department reviewed the proposal and determined that all the required off -site services do not exist and will need to be provided by the Rezoning Servicing Agreement. Other comments include the following: • Road dedication of 2.5 metres will be required across the full frontage on Plaza Street to upgrade it to a collector standard. Road widths on 222^d Street and Brown Avenue do not need further widening; -5- • Other upgrades include the following: New curb, gutter on the west side of Plaza Street; reconstruction of the curb at the intersection of Plaza street and Brown Avenue; removal of unneeded driveway let downs on 222"d Street & replacing it with separated sidewalk; new sanitary sewer, water and storm sewer connections; separated sidewalks on Plaza Street and Brown Avenue; Street lighting on Plaza Street and 222^d Street (existing Street lights on Brown Avenue are adequate); Street Trees on boulevard on all three frontages; Under- ground wiring for utility services to be under -ground. The Parks & Leisure Services Department have identified that after the Building Permit is approved and construction completed they will be responsible for maintaining the street trees. In the case of this project it is estimated that there will be some additional trees which will be based on the landscape plan submitted by the Landscape Architect and will be attached to the approved Development Permit. The Manager of Parks & Open Space has advised that the maintenance requirement of $25.00 per new tree will increase their budget requirements. The Parks & Leisure Services Department have advised that the two existing, corner trees (Fir and Cedar trees) are in good condition and must be retained. The Fire Department has reviewed the proposal and comments have been provided to the applicant. The applicant has ensured that all these will be addressed through the Building Permit drawings at a later date. The Building Department has reviewed the proposal and comments have been provided to the applicant. The applicant has ensured that all these will be addressed through the Building Permit drawings at a later date. e) School District Comments: A referral was sent to the School District office and no comments were received. f) Canada Post Comments: A referral was sent to the Canada Post office and no comments were received. I DE CONCLUSION: The proposal is strategically located within the Central Business District of the Town Centre Area and designed with an urban flavour to fit well in the context. A variety of units ranging from studio to two bedroom apartments (465 ft2to 841 ft2) have been proposed to cater to a variety of housing needs and affordability. Vehicular and pedestrian circulation has been separated well and units facing 222^d Street and Brown Avenue have a street presence. The proposal qualifies for the Town Centre Incentive Program and fits well into the vision of creating a dense and vibrant Town Centre Area. It is recommended that this proposal be given Second Reading and forwarded to Public Hearing. Prepared by. Rasi Achary�B-ArchM-T�ech.UD,LEED® AP Planner 1 Approved by , MCIP of Plan nk Quinn, MBA, P.

DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: Applicant: Robert Ciccozzi Architecture Inc. (Shannon Seefeldt) Owner: Donray Construction Ltd and JME Developments Ltd, Raja Holdings Ltd, Randhawa Development Ltd, and Gurdip Singh Bath Legal Description: Parcel "G" (Ref. Plan 2701), DL 405, GP 1, NWD; OCP: SE 198' x 660' (Plan with fee deposited No. 14240F), DL 405, GP 1, having a frontage of 198' on Baker Rd. by a uniform depth of 660' and adjoining Parcel "G" (Reference Plan 2701), NWD; and Parcel "H" (Plan with fee deposited 22319F) of Parcel "One" (Plan with fee deposited 14153F), DL 405, GP 1, NWD Existing: Agricultural Proposed: Urban Residential, Conservation Zoning: Existing: RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential), RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Proposed: RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) -2- Surrounding Uses North: Use: Zone: Designation South: Use: Zone: Designation: East: Use: Zone: Designation West: Use: Zone: Designation Existing Use of Property: Proposed Use of Property: Access: Servicing: b) Project Description: Single Family Residential RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential), RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Agricultural, ALR Albion Elementary School P-1 (Park and School) Institutional Single Family Residential R-3 (Special Amenity Residential District), RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) Medium Density Residential, Conservation Vacant RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) Agricultural, ALR 1 lot - single family residential, 2 lots - vacant Townhouse 240 Street Full Urban Since this application received Third Reading approval of the OCP and Zone Amending bylaws on May 25, 2010, the applicant has undertaken a detailed analysis of the Stormwater/Rainwater Management requirements for the site and has determined that the required bio-filtration/wetland pond needs to be much larger than originally anticipated and will not fit within boundary of the area proposed for rezoning to RM-1 (Residential Townhouse). The proposed new zoning boundary at the west end of the development site is more appropriate to the site conditions, will be a better use of the land, and will be simpler to delineate the boundary between the municipal park land and the ESA covenanted area on the residential development area. This development proposal is to rezone the subject property from RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) and RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) to construct a 159 unit townhouse development. This application requires an amendment to the Official Community Plan to redesignate the land use to Urban Residential and Conservation, to amend the Urban Boundary to include this site, and to remove the 'starred property' designation from the site. This site was one of the starred properties identified on the 2006 Official Community Plan. The purpose of designating the property with a star was to signal the intent to include it in the Urban Area Boundary subject to it being removed from Metro Vancouver's Green Zone. The property was removed from the Green Zone by Metro Vancouver on October 24, 2008. On April 13, 2010, Council gave First Reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 6732-2010 to rezone this property to RM-1 (Townhouse Residential). The site is located on the west side of 240 Street, just north of the Albion Elementary School property. The site is relatively flat and is currently undeveloped except for one dwelling located on INcIE the center property. A portion of the west end of the site contains wetland areas and is located within the Fraser River floodplain. The site is bordered by agricultural lands to the north and west, the school to the south and 240 Street on the east is a major arterial route. The portion of the site to the west of the townhouses will be designated Conservation for the protection of the environmentally sensitive areas, with half of the ESA area dedicated as Park and half protected by a Restrictive Covenant for environmental protection. The most recent revision of the proposed townhouse development has 159 units in 25 buildings, down from 164 units in 26 buildings. The units are slightly larger but the overall site density is the same, at a floor space ration of 0.6. The units fronting the public street (240 Street) will have front entrances to the street. Each unit will be provided with 2 parking spaces, either a tandem garage or a single garage and a driveway parking space. Approximately 33 visitor parking spaces will be provided. All unit driveways and parking will be accessed from the internal strata road network and the main site entrance to the development would be centered on the 240 Street frontage. A gated emergency access to 240 Street is proposed near the north end of the site. Running concurrently with this application are a Watercourse Protection Development Permit, a Multi -Family Residential Development Permit and a Development Variance Permit. c) Planning Analysis: Official Communit PI This application received Third Reading approval of Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 6731-2010 on May 25, 2010. The proposed revisions to the Zoning boundary do not require a revision to the OCP amending bylaw. The OCP amendment is to re -designate the land use from Agricultural to Urban Residential and Conservation, to amend the Urban Boundary to include this site, and to remove the 'starred property' designation from the site. The Conservation area of the site will include the area to be dedicated as Park and the area to be protected by an ESA covenant that is part of the residential development area. The properties were approved by the Agricultural Land Commission for exclusion from the Agricultural Land Reserve on February 20, 2005 and this site was one of the starred properties identified on the 2006 Official Community Plan that was subsequently removed from the Green Zone by the Metro Vancouver on October 24, 2008. The development site is located on 240 Street, which is deemed to be a major corridor in the OCP, and the development is consistent with the policies of Sections 3-18, 3-20 and 3-21 for residential development on a major corridor. Zoning Bylaw: The applicant is proposing to rezone the development site to RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) and is proposing to construct approximately 159 townhouse dwellings. The maximum density for the RM-1 zone is a floor space ratio of 0.6 times the net lot area, excluding a maximum of 50m2 of habitable basement area per unit. The proposed development does not have any basements and the proposed floor space ratio will be 0.6 based on a net site area of 3.16ha (7.81 ac). The development site area includes the residential portion of the site and 4254.67m2 of land proposed -4- for protection of the environmentally sensitive area by a restrictive covenant. The applicant proposes to locate features of the stormwater/rainwater management system within the development site and in the covenanted portion of the site. Proposed Variances: The applicant has requested a number of variances that will be the subject of a future Council report. The variances are as follows: 1. To increase the height of all buildings from 10.5m to 11m, and from 2 1/2 storeys to 3 storeys; 2. To reduce the required building setbacks on the front, rear and south interior side lot lines; and 3. To reduce the distance between buildings from 15m to 12m where a living room window faces another building end. Off -Street Parking and Loading Bylaw: The applicant is providing the required number of parking spaces for this development of 2 spaces per unit for Residential Parking (318 spaces total) and 0.2 spaces per unit for Visitor Parking (32 spaces total). The residential parking spaces are either in a tandem garage or in a single garage and a driveway parking space. The visitor parking spaces will be located throughout the site. Develo ment P rmit: A Multi -Family Development Permit is required for the RM-1 (Townhouse Residential) development that will address the form and character of the design and provide guidelines for the development of the site. A Landscape Security will be taken as a condition of the issuance of the Development Permit. Conformance with the development permit guidelines will be the subject of a future report to Council. Advisory Design Panel: The project was reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel (ADP) at the February and March 2010 meetings. The Advisory Design Panel recommendations will be addressed when the final plans are submitted for the Multi -Family Development Permit. Development Information Meeting,: The developer hosted a Development Information meeting on January 12, 2010 at Albion Elementary School. d) Environmental Implications: A Watercourse Protection Development Permit is required for the preservation, restoration and enhancement of the natural environment of the watercourse areas on and adjacent to the site. A security will be taken as a condition of the issuance of the Development Permit to ensure that the conditions of the Development Permit are met. The western portion of the site is located within the Fraser River floodplain. Forty-seven metres on the west side of the project site will be provided for Environmental protection. Half of this area will be dedicated as Park and the other half will be protected by a Restrictive Covenant for the protection of the environmentally sensitve area. -5- The stormwater/rainwater management system will include bioswales and rain gardens across the site, and a bio-infiltration/wetland pond to be located within the covenanted area. The landscaping and stormwater management infrastructure in both the residential portion of the site and within the ESA covenant area will be maintained by the strata through a Strata Maintenance Covenant as part of the stormwater management system. The developer and their consultants have recently undertaken a detailed analysis of the Stormwater/Rainwater Management requirements for the site and have determined that the required bio-filtration/wetland pond must be much larger than originally anticipated and will not fit within the boundary of the area proposed for rezoning to RM-1(Residential Townhouse). As a result, the location of the zoning boundary must be revised at the west end of the development site so that all the stormwater management infrastructure, including the bio-filtration/wetland pond, is located within the development site and not within the area to be dedicated as Park. The consultants will need to ensure that the impact of the proposed development on water volumes and potential release rates/flows into adjacent properties will not negatively impact those neighbouring properties during and after the proposed development takes place. The bio- filtration/wetland design must ensure that the post development impacts will not have a negative impact on proposed trees to be retained or existing riparian areas. e) Agricultural Impact: An Agricultural Impact Assessment report was completed in October 2009 for this development. The development site borders the ALR on the north and west, which are mainly occupied by a wet forest system. The development would provide an 8m buffer to the agricultural land in the north, and a 47m buffer, as a wetland conservation and protection area, to the west. Most of the agricultural land on the adjacent properties is vacant, used for recreation, or forested wetland and only a small portion is used for agriculture. f) Traffic Impact: A Traffic Impact Study was completed in April 2009 for this development at the request of the District of Maple Ridge and the Ministry of Transportation. The report concludes that when added to the existing traffic volumes on 240 Street, the changes in traffic associated with the proposed development are generally within the normal range of fluctuation of the current volume levels and would generally not be a significant traffic -impact. There is no traffic impact expected on the school site. g) Interdepartmental Implications: Engineering. Department• The Engineering Department has identified that all the services required in support of this development application do not yet exist for the site. It will therefore be'necessary for the owner to enter into a Rezoning Servicing Agreement and post securities to do the work identified in that agreement prior to final reading. The development site is now included within the Fraser Sewer Area. Comments provided by the Engineering Department include: 1. Road widening and improvements to 240 Street is required; 2. Upgrading of the downstream sanitary sewer system is required; 3. Storm sewer improvements are required; 4. Latecomer charges will be payable at the Building Permit stage for Latecomer Agreement LC 81/02; 5. A Statutory right-of-way is required from 240 Street to the dedicated Park lands; 6. All on -site works, including drainage works, must account for the Fraser River flood elevation. The drainage works must not allow flood waters to surcharge onto the site; 7. Ministry of Highways approval will be required because the development is within 800 metres of a controlled highway intersection. Parks & Lei ure Services Department: The Parks & Leisure Services Department have identified that after the development is completed they will be responsible for maintaining the street trees. In the case of this project it is estimated that there will be an additional 15 trees: final servicing design will provide exact numbers. The Manager of Parks & Open Space has advised that the maintenance requirement of $25.00 per new tree will increase their budget requirements by $375.00. Firg Department: The Fire Department is satisfied with the proposed internal road network and the emergency access location at the north end of the site. A fire hydrant must be located at the main entrance. Well marked onsite addressing is required at the main entrance. h) School District Comments: The application was referred to the School District but no comments have been received to date. -7- It is recommended that Second and Third Reading of Zone Amending Bylaw �No 67310 berescinded; no�o� and that Second Reading be given to the revised Maple Ridge Zone /\ ' di �� 6732'2O10.and that appUoationRZ/O7OSbeforvvarded�nPub|ioHmainne» »gBylaw No. _ rn�.
