650 QUESTIONS FROM THE PUBLIC
Note: Mayor Read addressed the most recent announcement from the Provincial
Government pertaining to a temporary modular site and indicated that
Maple Ridge Council does currently not have more information than the
public.
Wesley Mann
Mr. Mann asked if Council will break its silence on both the application on
Burnett Street and the temporary modular homes and stand up for the
families for Maple Ridge.
Mayor Read advised that an application on the Burnett site will be coming
before Council and that the Province currently does not wish to bring an
application before Council for a temporary use permit with respect to the
temporary modular.
Mr. Mann asked whether this will be the first time that the Provincial
Government does not seek rezoning for modulars.
Mayor Read responded to the question and outlined actions Council has
taken in the past to deal with the issue.
Eric Boland
Mr. Boland asked what Act in BC law allows for the Province to trump an
Official Community Plan. He asked for a reference to an Act or Legislation.
Mayor Read advised on legislation and stated that information can be e-
mailed to Mr. Boland.
Mr. Boland asked whether the City can engage in legal action due to the
Province bypassing and putting in things that the community doesn’t want.
Mayor Read advised that the City cannot.

application has been brought forward.
Jessica Flynn
Ms. Flynn asked whether, when the rezoning of the property is considered,
the data of houses listed and sold proximate to the Burnett Street proposed
site since it was announced and houses listed and sold in Golden Ears
Elementary catchment will be looked at.

Resident (the resident submitted her information in writing to the Corporate
Officer)

the residents in Marpole are going through in terms of their fight.
The Mayor replied in the affirmative.
The resident asked whether there is anything similar to a Service Level 3,
as per a policy of the City of Vancouver, in Maple Ridge.
Mayor Read advised there is not. She clarified that the City of Vancouver
has its own charter and therefore its powers differ from the City of Maple
Ridge.
The resident asked how Council will prevent individuals with a Service Level
3 and the negative behaviours that come with this service level from
coming into the City.
Mayor Read advised on follow up by the City with the Province.

businesses such as taxi services.

decision.
Dana Lang
Ms. Lang asked whether residents can be guaranteed that Anita Place and
other tent cities will not happen if the proposed shelter does get built.

(“LMLGA”) Conference
801
DRAFT – LMLGA Resolution
UCompulsory Labelling of Genetically Modified Foods
WHEREAS the production of genetically modified foods can lead to cross-pollination with wild
plants and non-GM crops causing genetic pollution and potential human health concerns; and
WHEREAS several countries around the world have implemented compulsory labelling of GM
foods, and a majority of Canadians are supportive of compulsory GM food labelling;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Health Canada be urged to implement compulsory labelling of
genetically modified foods sold in Canada.
DRAFT – LMLGA Resolution
UEnding Discrimination in Tenancies
WHEREAS BC’s Residential Tenancy Act states that a landlord cannot discriminate in tenancies
based on a person’s race, colour, ancestry, place of origin, religion, marital status, family status,
physical or mental disability, gender, sexual orientation, age or legal source of income (Section
10 of the Human Rights Code); and
WHEREAS there is evidence to suggest that this kind of discrimination towards prospective
tenants is occurring in the BC rental housing market;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that BC Housing be urged to proactively pursue instances of
discrimination in the BC rental housing market toward ending discrimination in BC tenancies.
DRAFT – LMLGA Resolution
USupporting Innovation in Home Heating Systems
WHEREAS electric baseboard heating is widely used as a more environmentally friendly option to
heat homes; and
WHEREAS the cost of heating homes with electric baseboards is higher than other commonly
used energy sources such as natural gas;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that senior governments be encouraged to support the
development of alternative home heating products that are more affordable to consumers yet
sensitive to environmental sustainability targets.
LMLGA Resolution
UIncreasing the Number of Family Practitioners in BC
WHEREAS there is a lack of access to family practitioners in communities throughout British
Columbia, exacerbated by barriers to licensing for International Medical Graduate (IMG)
physicians and limited opportunities for medial school graduates to complete their required
residencies; and
WHEREAS the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia regulates the practice of
medicine under the authority of Provincial Government legislation;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Province of BC be urged to work with the College of
Physicians and Surgeons of BC to increase the number of family practitioners in British Columbia
by expediting the licensing process for qualified IMG physicians and creating more residency
opportunities for medical school graduates.
LMLGA Resolution
UReview of BC’s Fee for Service Model
WHEREAS there is a lack of access to family practitioners in communities throughout British
Columbia; and
WHEREAS the existing Fee for Service (FFS) model of compensation for family physicians does
not encourage enough new medical graduates to choose family practice, and is less attractive
compared to different models of compensation used in other provinces;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Province of BC be urged to undertake a review of the FFS
model with a view to making the compensation of family physicians in BC more attractive to
encourage new medical graduates to choose family practice and stay in BC.

registration on title as per the ‘Letter of Undertaking’ by the solicitor;

for registration on title as per the ‘Letter of Undertaking’ by the solicitor;
x) Traffic Impact Study Report has been submitted and approved;
xi) Existing buildings on the subject properties have been removed;
xii) A Water Supply Operating Permit is deemed outdated and no longer required;
xiii) A Professional Engineer’s certification that adequate water quantity for domestic and fire
protection purposes has been provided;
xiv) A disclosure statement, dated April 11, 2016, indicates that no underground fuel storage
tanks exist on the subject properties; and

District property. This Access Easement has been submitted for registration on title as per
the ‘Letter of Undertaking’ by the solicitor.

and Members of Council FILE No: 05-1825-02
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council Meeting
SUBJECT: Alternative Approval Process Results & Loan Authorization Bylaws
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In September of 2017, Council approved a process to obtain electoral approval to borrow up to
$49.5 million. On February 19, 2018 public approval was attained. Council can now adopt the loan
authorization bylaws so that they can be forwarded to the Province for approval. Once this is in place,
the City may proceed with borrowing the approved funds, as and when required. In alignment with
the City’s purchasing policy, contract awards meeting value thresholds come to Council for approval.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
That Maple Ridge Leisure Centre Renovation Loan Authorization Bylaw No. 7370-2017 be adopted,
and;
That Telosky Stadium Synthetic Fields Loan Authorization Bylaw No. 7371-2017 be adopted; and
That Albion Community Centre Loan Authorization Bylaw No. 7372-2017 be adopted; and
That Silver Valley Neighbourhood Gathering Places Loan Authorization Bylaw No. 7373 -2017 be
adopted; and
That Hammond Community Centre Renovation Loan Authorization Bylaw No. 7374-2017 be

DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context:
The City has engaged the public at length over the past few years in relation to investments in
park, recreation and cultural infrastructure. Council determined to move forward with projects
worth an estimated $55.5 million, for which $49.5 million is required from borrowing. In order to
borrow this funding, the City was required to obtain approval of the electorate.
Council identified the Alternative Approval Process as the preferred method of obtaining electoral
approval in July 2016. In September 2017, Council approved an outline of the proposed process.
On November 3, 2017, the City received approval from the Inspector of Municipalities to
proceed.
The process included Council giving three readings to eight loan authorization bylaws to renovate
and construct eight park and recreational amenities. The public opportunity to oppose any, some
or all of the bylaws was advertised in the newspaper twice in the two weeks leading up to the
public participation period, and on the web and social media sites, and elector response forms
were made available at city hall, the leisure centre, and the library for thirty days.
The process for electoral opposition concluded on February 19, 2018, at which time the
responses were tallied. Opposition for all projects fell short of the 10% threshold, and, therefore,
electoral approval was attained.
For the City to proceed with the borrowing, Council must adopt each of the Loan Authorization
Bylaws. Council will have further opportunity for decision-making as each individual project and
contract award is put forward for approval.
b) Strategic Alignment:
These investments in City infrastructure align with population growth, and are outlined in the
Parks, Recreation and Cultural Master Plan. The loan authorizations are within the City’s
borrowing capacity as established by the Province, and a financial plan showing the impact on
property tax increases has been established.
c) Citizen/Customer Implications:
Provincial legislation regulating the Alternative Approval Process establishes electoral approval
as less than 10% of eligible voters opposed, equivalent to 5,828 signatures, for each individual
loan authorization bylaw. The number of signatures received for each project was:
Maple Ridge Leisure Centre Renovation: 1,069 (1.8%)
Telosky Stadium Synthetic Fields: 1,270 (2.2%)
Albion Community Centre: 1,331 (2.3%)
Silver Valley Neighbourhood Gathering Places: 1,508 (2.6%)
Hammond Community Centre Renovation: 1,254 (2.2%)
Whonnock lake Canoe and Kayak Facility Improvement: 1,320 (2.3%)
Maple Ridge Secondary School Track Facility Upgrades: 1,244 (2.1%)
Ice Sheet Addition: 1,501 (2.6%)

CONCLUSIONS:
Electoral approval for loan authorization bylaws to fund eight park and recreation p rojects has been
attained. Council can now adopt the bylaws so that they can be forwarded to the Province for
approval. In alignment with the City’s purchasing policy, contract awards meeting value thresholds
come before to Council for approval.

SUBJECT: First Reading
Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7433-2018
12313 McNutt Road
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
An application has been received to rezone the subject property, located at 12313 McNutt Road,
from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) for a future
subdivision into two single family lots.
To proceed further with this application, additional information is required as outlined below.
Pursuant to Council Policy 6.31, this application is subject to the Community Amenity Contribution
charge of approximately $5,100.00 ($5,100 per new single family lot created).
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1.That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7433-2018 be given first reading; and
2.That the applicant provide further information as described on Schedules B, E, and G of the
Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879–1999, along with the information required for a

Existing Use of Property: Single Family Residential
Proposed Use of Property: Single Family Residential
Site Area: 1.2 ha (2.9 acres)
Access: McNutt Road and 272 Street
Servicing requirement: Rural Standard
b) Project Description:
The subject property, located at 12313 McNutt Road, is approximately 1.2 ha (2.9 acres) in size, and
has frontage on 272 Street and McNutt Road (see Appendices A and B). The property is treed in the
south-eastern portion, and has significant slopes along 272 Street and along the central-eastern
portion of the property (see Appendix C). Cooper Creek is located east of McNutt Road. There is a
cell phone tower located near the northern property line, in the centre of the property. There is a
private agreement in place and a Statutory Right-of-Way on Title to allow access for this tower until
the end of 2023. Cell phone towers are under federal jurisdiction and the City is not responsible for
maintaining access to them. The Statutory Right-of-Way will carry over to the newly created lots once
subdivided.
The applicant is proposing to rezone the property from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RS-2
(One Family Suburban Residential) (see Appendix D) to allow for a future subdivision for two single
family lots (see Appendix E).
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.
c) Planning Analysis:
Official Community Plan:
The subject property is located outside the Urban Area Boundary and is currently designated
Suburban Residential, which generally allows for a lot size of 0.4 ha (1 acre), with City water and a
private system for sewage disposal.
In August, 2016 Council received a staff report outlining Suburban Residential and Estate Suburban
Residential land use designation options. On September 5, 2017 after further review Council
resolved that no changes would be made to the Estate Suburban and Suburban Residential OCP
policies and that residential development in these areas could proceed accordingly.
- 3 -
The proposed rezoning and preliminary subdivision is also consistent with the Suburban Residential
land use designation and with applications that have been approved in the area. Properties
immediately to the north, south, and west are zoned RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential).
Zoning Bylaw:
The current application proposes to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One Family Rural
Residential) to RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to permit two single family lots. The
minimum lot size for the current RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) zone is 0.8 ha (2 acres), and
the minimum lot size for the proposed RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) zone is 0.4 ha (1
acre). Any variations from the requirements of the proposed zone will require a Development
Variance Permit application.
Development Permits:
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:
All areas designated Conservation on Schedule “B” or all areas within 50 metres 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.
Pursuant to Section 8.12 of the OCP, a Wildfire Development Permit application is required for all
development and subdivision activity identified in wildfire risk areas. The purpose of the Wildfire
Development Permit is for the protection of life and property in designated areas that could be at risk
for wildland fire; and where this risk may be reasonably abated through implementation of
appropriate precautionary measures. The subject property is located within the Wildfire
Development Permit Area, identified on Map 1 in Section 8.12 of the Official Community Plan.
However, as the proposal is for two single family lots, the application is exempt from the Wildfire
Development Permit, but a Restrictive Covenant will be required detailing the building design and
landscaping requirements.
Advisory Design Panel:
This application does not need to be reviewed by the Advisory Design Panel as a Form and Character
Development Permit is not required for the single family residential dwellings.
Development Information Meeting:
A Development Information Meeting is not required for this application because fewer than five
dwelling units are being proposed.
- 4 -
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) Fire Department;
d) Building Department;
e) Parks Department;
f) Utility companies; 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 this 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);
2. A Natural Features Development Permit Application (Schedule G); and
3. A Subdivision Application.
The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the
assessment of the proposal progresses.
- 5 -
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.

SUBJECT: First Reading
Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7424-2018
12848 240 Street
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
An application has been received to rezone the subject property, located at 12848 240 Street, from
RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) and RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to R-2 (Urban
Residential District), to allow future subdivision into approximately thirteen (13) single family
residential lots (see Appendix D). An Official Community Plan (OCP) amendment is anticipated to
adjust the Conservation boundaries to reflect the location of Hennipen Creek. To proceed further
with this application additional information is required as outlined below.
As per Council Policy 6.31, which was updated December 12, 2017, this application is subject to the
Community Amenity Contribution (CAC) Program, at a rate of $5,100 per lot.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
In respect of Section 475 of the Local Government Act, requirement for consultation 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.Boards of Education, Greater Boards and Improvements District Boards; and
vi.The Provincial and Federal Governments and their agencies.
and in that regard 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 Zone Amending Bylaw No.7424-2018 be given first reading; and
That the applicant provide further information as described on Schedules A, B, F and J of the
Development Procedures Bylaw No. 5879–1999, along with the information required for a
Subdivision application.

Site Area: 0.71 ha (1.75 acres)
Access: Mill Street and new strata road
Servicing requirement: Urban Standard
b) Site Characteristics:
The subject property is 0.71 ha (1.75 acres) in size and is bound by the unopened 240 Street right of
way to the west, Mill Street to the east, a single family residential lot to the south and newly created
Parkland to the north (see Appendix A). Hennipen Creek is located in the northwest corner of the
subject property running east to west. The subject property has some minor grade changes around
the location of Hennipen Creek, as well; trees are located around the perimeter of the lot. The
development site is located in the Horse Hamlet of the Silver Valley Area P lan, which forms part of
the Official Community Plan (OCP).
- 3 -
c) Project Description:
The applicant proposes to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) and
RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to R-2 (Urban Residential District) to permit subdivision into
thirteen (13) single family residential lots not less than 315 m². The applicant is proposing a Bare
Land Strata development in order to achieve similar watercourse setbacks as the adjacent
development, as well as a reduced road right-of-way (see Appendix D).
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 subject property is located within the Horse Hamlet of the Silver Valley Area Plan and is currently
designated Medium/High Density Residential (51%) and Conservation (49%). The Medium/High
Density Residential designation permits densities ranging between 18-40 units per hectare in either
single family or multi-family form.
The proposed R-2 (Urban Residential District) zoned development is in compliance with the Silver
Valley Area Plan policies. It is important to note that within the Silver Valley Area, the Horse Hamlet
has the lowest relative densities. An OCP amendment is anticipated to adjust the Conservation
boundaries to reflect the location of Hennipen Creek.
The property to the south, located at 24043 128 Avenue, is designated Commercial and
Medium/High Density Residential (currently single family residential use). Based on this
designation, it is anticipated that a commercial use will be utilized in the future. Due to a potential
conflict of uses between the proposed single family residential lots (subject application) and the
potential commercial use (adjacent southern property), a landscape covenant would be required as a
condition of rezoning to allow a buffer between the two uses. The covenant will be registered on title
and inform prospective home-owners of the potential commercial use on the adjacent southern lot.
Zoning Bylaw:
The current application proposes to rezone the subject property from RS-3 (One Family Rural
Residential) and RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) to R-2 (Urban Residential District) (see
Appendix B) to permit future subdivision into approximately thirteen (13) single family residential
lots. The minimum lot size for the current RS-2 (One Family Suburban Residential) zone is 0.4 ha (1
acre) and RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) zone is 0.8 ha (2 acres), and the minimum lot size for
the proposed R-2 (Urban Residential District) zone is 315 m2. Any variations from the requirements
of the proposed zone will require a Development Variance Permit application.
Development Permits:
Pursuant to Section 8.9 of the OCP, a Watercourse Protection Development Permit application is
required for all developments and building permits within 50 metres of the top of bank of all
watercourses and wetlands. The purpose of the Watercourse Protection Development Permit is to
ensure the preservation, protection, restoration and enhancement of watercourse and riparian
areas.

Pursuant to Section 8.12 of the OCP, a Wildfire Development Permit application is required for all
development and subdivision activity identified in wildfire risk areas. The purpose of the Wildfire
Development Permit is for the protection of life and property in designated areas that could be at risk
for wildland fire; and where this risk may be reasonably abated through implementation of
appropriate precautionary measures. The subject property is located within the Wildfire
Development Permit Area, identified on Map 1 in Section 8.12 of the Official Community Plan. Prior
to second reading a Registered Professional Forester’s Report will be required to determine wildfire
mitigation requirements.
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) Fire Department;
d) Building Department;
e) Parks Department;
f) School District; 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 this 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) Early and Ongoing Consultation:
In respect of Section 475 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.
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:
- 5 -
1. An OCP Application (Schedule A);
2. A complete Rezoning Application (Schedule B);
3. A Watercourse Protection Development Permit Application (Schedule F);
4. A Wildfire Development Permit Application (Schedule J); and
5. A Subdivision Application.
The above list is intended to be indicative only, other applications may be necessary as the
assessment of the proposal progresses.
CONCLUSION:
This development proposal is in compliance with the OCP; however an OCP amendment for a
Conservation boundary adjustment will be required. It is expected that once complete information is
received after first reading, Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7424-2018 will be amended to
reflect the appropriate conservation boundary.
It is therefore recommended that Council grant first reading subject to additional information being
provided and assessed prior to second reading; and that Council not require any further additional
OCP consultation. The proposed layout has not been reviewed in relation to the relevant bylaws and
regulations governing subdivision applications. Any subdivision layout provided is strictly preliminary
and must be approved by the City of Maple Ridge’s Approving Officer.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
An application has been received to rezone the subject property, located at 22368 North Avenue
(see Appendix A), from RM-3 (High Density Apartment Residential) to C-3 (Town Centre Commercial)
under application 2017-078-RZ to permit the construction of a four storey mixed-use building which

Appendix B) is being brought forward to Council for first, second and third reading. A Public Hearing
is not required. Once the other terms and conditions of application 2017-078-RZ are fulfillled by the
applicant, this Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 7443-2018 will be brought forward for final reading at
the same meeting as the final reading for zone amending bylaw associated with the rezoning

b) Project Description:
Under Section 483 of the Local Government Act, the City may enter into Housing Agreements. These
agreements may include terms and conditions agreed to by the City and a land owner regarding the
occupancy of the housing units identified in such agreements, including the form of tenure of the
housing units. Authorization to enter such agreements requires an authorizing bylaw (see Appendix
B).
The subject property is being developed to accommodate a four storey mixed-use building that will
serve as the new head office of the Ridge Meadows Community Living Foundation. The fourth floor of
the building contains six apartment dwelling units. A condition of the rezoning application is that
these dwelling units are maintained as affordable rental apartment units for persons with
developmental disabilities in perpetuity. The provision of this rental housing conforms with Town
Centre Area Plan Policy 3-7 to provide a range of housing needs within the Town Centre Area for
persons with special needs or disabilities in close proximity to transit, shopping, services, parks and
recreation.
The Housing Agreement to be authorized by this bylaw is also included in Appendix B of this report. It
has been reviewed and signed by the land owner.
In addition to the authorizing bylaw, the agreement will be registered as a restrictive covenant, and a
notice of the Housing Agreement will be filed on title by the City in the Land Title Office, in
accordance with subsection 483 (5) of the Local Government Act.
- 3 -
CONCLUSION:
To allow this rezoning application to proceed, the applicant has agreed to enter into a Housing
Agreement to allow for all six dwelling units in the mixed-use building to be secured as affordable
rental accommodation for persons with developmental disabilities in perpetuity. Provision of this
rental housing will meet a recognized community need.
The Local Government Act requires an authorizing bylaw for a municipality to enter into such
Housing Agreements. Therefore, Council is askedto consider granting first, second and third reading
for the 22368 North Avenue Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 7443-2018. Final adoption of the
Housing Agreement Bylaw would be considered by Council at a later date, concurrently with final
reading for the zone amending bylaw.

(g) upon 30 days of written demand by the City, the Covenantor will deliver a copy of any, or
each current Tenancy Agreement for any Dwelling Unit to the City’s Director of Planning,
unless prohibited from doing so by a court of competent jurisdiction;
(h) within 30 days of written demand by the City, the Covenantor must, in respect of any
Dwelling Unit, deliver to the City a statutory declaration in the form attached as Schedule
A or such other form as may be determined from time to time by the City, sworn by the
Covenantor or a director or officer of the Covenantor containing all the information
required to complete the statutory declaration. The Covenantor hereby irrevocably
authorizes City to make such inquiries as it considers necessary and reasonable in order to
confirm that the Covenantor is complying with this Agreement, and irrevocably authorizes
and directs the recipient of the request for information from the City to provide such
information to the City.
Specific Performance
3. The Covenantor agrees that because of the public interest in ensuring that all of the matters
described in this Agreement are complied with, the public interest strongly favours the award of a
prohibitory or mandatory injunction, or an order for specific performance or other specific relief,
by the Supreme Court of British Columbia at the instance of the City, in the event of an actual or
threatened breach of this Agreement.
Notice of Housing Agreement
4. For clarity, the Covenantor acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) this Agreement constitutes both a covenant under section 219 of the Land Title Act and a
housing agreement entered into under section 483 of the Local Government Act.
(b) the City is required to file a notice of this Housing Agreement in the Land Title Office
against title to the Lands as required by s. 483 of the Local Government Act and may
register this Agreement as a Section 219 Covenant as a charge against the Lands, with
priority over all other charges of whatsoever nature except for those charges approved by
the City; and
(c) once the notice of Housing Agreement and the s. 219 Covenant are filed, this Agreement
binds all persons who acquire an interest in the Lands.
No Obligation to Enforce
5. The rights given to the City by the Agreement are permissive only and nothing in this Agreement
imposes any legal duty of any kind on the City to anyone, or obliges the City to enforce this
Agreement, to perform any act or to incur any expense in respect of this Agreement.
No Effect on Law or Powers
6. This Agreement does not:
(a) affect or limit the discretion, rights duties or powers of the City or the approving officer
for the City under the common law or any statute, by-law or other enactment nor does this
Agreement date or give rise to, nor do the parties intend this Agreement to create, any
implied obligations concerning such discretionary rights, duties or powers;

City of Maple Ridge
TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read MEETING DATE: March 27, 2018
and Members of Council
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: Frogstone Bar & Grill Liquor Primary Licence Application
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Liquor Control and Licensing Branch (LCLB) have received a liquor primary licence application
(Appendix I) from Frogstone Restaurants Ltd. located at 2 – 22932 Lougheed Highway. Frogstone
Restaurants Ltd. operates under the name of Frogstone Bar & Grill which operates as a licenced
restaurant and currently holds a Food Primary Licence which is in effect from 9:00am to Midnight for
212 occupants with no restrictions on allowing minors in the restaurant.
The Frogstone Bar & Grill has applied to the LCLB for a Liquor Primary Licence, which if approved,
will be in effect from 9:00am to 2:00am, Monday to Sunday and would allow minors until 10:00pm.
The total person capacity/occupant load would stay the same, at 212 occupants.
One of the considerations utilized by the LCLB in reviewing an application for a liquor primary licence
is a resolution from the local government. A number of regulatory criteria must be addressed in the
Council resolution as well as comments pertaining to the views expressed by area residents. Council
may choose to support the application, not support the application or indicate they do not wish to
comment.
In compliance with the public input requirement, 476 letters were sent to owners and occupants of
property within 200 metres of the subject site. One (1) response was received, opposing the
proposed amendment (Appendix II).
RECOMMENDATION(S):
1.That the application by Frogstone Bar & Grill at 2 – 22932 Lougheed Highway Maple Ridge
for a Liquor Primary License with a Family Food Service Endorsement be supported, based
on the information contained in the Council report dated March 27, 2018.
2.That a copy of the resolution be forwarded to the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch in
accordance with the legislative requirements.
DISCUSSION:
a)Background Context:
On December 14, 2017, Frogstone Restaurants Ltd. through the Liquor Control and
Licensing Branch submitted an application to replace their Food Primary Licence with a
Liquor Primary Licence.
1105
Page 2 of 3
LCLB has completed their initial review of the application and have determined applicant
suitability and eligibility for the establishment type. The Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw does
permit a liquor primary establishment at this location and the business has a current and
valid Business Licence. The second phase of the application process is the gathering of
public input on the application request.
The LCLB guidelines request a specific Council resolution commenting on the application in
terms of community impacts which may occur as a result of the proposed change to the
establishment operations as a result to the proposed change. Part of the process requires
Council to gather views of the residents who may be affected by the establishment of the
liquor primary license in their neighbourhood.
In following the public input requirement, 476 letters were sent to owners and occupants of
property within approximately 200 metres of the subject site with the vast majority of the
recipients being residents and the rest of the property owners showing as registered
companies. Of the 476 letters sent to surrounding property owners and occupants, there
was one (1) response received, opposing the proposed amendment.
The City also posted a Public Notice in the local newspaper running in two separate editions;
February 7 and February 21, 2018.
The Maple Ridge RCMP Detachment was asked for their input on this matter and they have
advised that they do not have any operational issues with this application.
The Frogstone Bar & Grill is located in an area boarding multiple family residential properties.
There are several townhouse complexes located on the streets surrounding this business.
While there is adequate parking on the subject property to satisfy and meet municipal
parking requirements for this proposed change, there is a possibility that there could be an
overflow into the surrounding residential area.
The three closest liquor primary with food primary licensed premises to the subject property
are:
Breakaway Bar & Grill – 23588 Jim Robson Way
Kingfisher Enterprises Ltd – 23840 River Rd
The Ranch Pub & Grill – 21973 132 Ave
b) Desired Outcome(s):
That Council supports the application from Frogstone Restaurants Ltd. to change their Food
Primary Licence to a Liquor Primary Licence.
c) Intergovernmental Issues:
Both local government and the provincial government have an interest in ensuring that liquor
regulations are followed and that licensed establishments listen to the needs of the
community.
Page 3 of 3
d) Citizen/Customer Implications:
The review of this application has taken into consideration the potential for concerns from
surrounding properties in terms of parking, traffic and noise generation as well as the
proximity of schools and similar establishments.
e) Interdepartmental Implications:
The Licences & Bylaws Department has coordinated in the review process and solicited input
from the public, other municipal departments as well as the RCMP.
f) Alternatives:
To not approve the application and provide conditions to the approval in the form of
recommendations to forward to the LCLB.
CONCLUSIONS:
Frogstone Restaurants Ltd. has applied for a Liquor Primary Licence. The City of Maple Ridge has
conformed to the Liquor Control and Licencing Branch requirements in processing the application.
This report recommends that the application be supported.

SUBJECT: Maple Ridge Ticket Information Utilization Amending Bylaw No. 7426-2018
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The proposed changes to the Maple Ridge Ticket Information Utilization Bylaw No. 6929-2012 are
required as Council has just adopted the new Maple Ridge Drinking Water Conservation Plan Bylaw
No. 7425-2018
When changes are made to any bylaw, corresponding changes must be made to the Maple Ridge
Ticket Information Utilization Bylaw so that all sections in both bylaws are consistent.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
That the Maple Ridge Ticket Information Utilization Amending Bylaw No. 7426-2018 be given first,
second and third reading.
DISCUSSION:
Council has repealed the old Maple Ridge Water Shortage Response Plan Bylaw No. 6307-
2005 and replaced it with Maple Ridge Drinking Water Conservation Plan Bylaw No. 7425-
2018. Schedule 28 in the Maple Ridge Ticket Information Bylaw No. 6929-2012 refers to the
repealed bylaw and therefore must be amended. This amendment will ensure that all
sections in both bylaws will be consistent.
CONCLUSIONS:
The proposed Amendment Bylaw to the existing Maple Ridge Ticket Information Utilization Bylaw No.
6929-2012 provides updated regulations for staff to pursue compliance with any violations to the
Maple Ridge Drinking Water Conservation Plan Bylaw.

SUBJECT: MR/PM Community Services Development Proposal
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The attached report regarding a development proposal from Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Community
Services (CS) was received by the Audit & Finance Committee on July 18, 2017. The Committee
endorsed a recommendation to develop a program to provide assistance to CS following the
framework of the recently expired Town Centre Incentive Plan, noting that the value of that
assistance would be approximately $500,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
That a program to provide assistance to the Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Community Services project
that follows the framework of the recently expired Town Centre Incentive Plan be developed as
recommended by the Audit & Finance Committee.
DISCUSSION:
On July 18, 2017 The Audit & Finance Committee discussed a pending development proposal from
Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Community Services (CS) that would result in the construction of office
space for CS and 94 affordable residential housing units. CS had initially requested a contribution
from the City equivalent to the value of the CS owned land the project would be constructed on,
approximately $1.8 million. The committee endorsed the recommendation noted above to provide
the same level of assistance that would have been available to CS had the project come forward
prior to the expiration of the Town Centre Incentive Plan. Now that the project is coming before
Council for consideration, staff are looking for Council direction to advance the recommendation of
the Audit & Finance Committee. In order to justify the resurrection of the TCIIP for this project, and to
secure the rental tenure in perpetuity, it is recommended that the City enter into a Rental Housing
Agreement, to be advanced as a Planning Department application.

FROM: Manager of Accounting MEETING: Audit & Finance Committee
SUBJECT: MR PM Community Services Development Proposal
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Community Services (CSC) has a development proposal that would
result in the construction of office space for Community Services and 94 affordable residential
housing units. CSC has requested a contribution of approximately $1.8 million from the City, and the
Audit & Finance Committee received a presentation regarding this at the May 29, 2017 meeting.
This contribution is to match the value of the land that Community Services is contributing to the
project. CSC has also received a preliminary commitment from BC Housing for a Provincial grant of
$11 million.
As outlined in the May 29th presentation, a contribution to the order requested by CSC is hard to
rationalize. Community Services was asked to do an analysis of what the project would have
attracted in incentives from the city, had the previous town centre incentive program still been in
place. That value has been calculated at approximately $500,000.
In discussions with CSC, we have been advised that the assistance requested from the city will not
only provide affordable housing, it will also assist CSC in providing improved space for its own
programming. The latter portion of this request is problematic for the city as over the years, we have
denied similar requests for funding from other service providers. Alouette Addictions and the Friends
in Need Foodbank are but two very valuable community organizations that have requested such
assistance and have been denied. CSC itself has applied for a tax exemption in the past and has
been denied based on policy direction.
CSC is a valuable community organization that has been working on this project for some time. Had
the project come forward while the currently expired incentive program was in place, it would have
been eligible under that program. Staff recommend that assistance be afforded to CSC based on the
parameters that were in place for the currently expired incentive program, noting that the value of
that assistance approximates $500,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
That staff be directed to develop a program to provide assistance to the Community Services Council
project following the framework of the recently expired Town Centre Incentive Plan.
APPENDIX A
2 of 2
Background and Discussion:
On May 1, 2017, the City received a letter (attached) from the Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows
Community Services (CSC) regarding a development proposal that would include office space for
Community Services and 94 affordable residential housing units. CSC has received a preliminary
commitment for a grant of $11 million toward the project from BC Housing and has requested the
City contribute approximately $1.8 to match the value of the land that CSC is contributing.
On May 29, 2017, the Audit & Finance Committee received a presentation (attached) about the
project and the request for assistance. As outlined in the presentation, a contribution of the
magnitude requested is hard to rationalize.
In discussions with CSC, we have been advised that the assistance requested from the City will not
only allow for an increase in the number of units offered at low or moderate rental rates from 65 to
86, but will also assist them with providing space for their own programming. The latter portion of
this request is problematic for the City. Over the years, we have denied similar requests for funding
from valuable community organizations such as Alouette Addictions and The Friends in Need Food
Bank. CSC has itself been denied a tax exemption in the past.
CSC has done some analysis to estimate the value of incentives the project would have attracted
under Council’s Town Centre Investment Incentive Program had the program still been in place. That
value is estimated at approximately $500,000.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommend that any assistance provided to Community Services be based on the parameters
that were in place for the expired incentive program, noting that the value of that assistance is
estimated to be approximately $500,000.

SUBJECT: Funding Model for Youth Wellness Centre Concept
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This past December, Council asked staff to work with Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Community
Services (MRPMCS) and the Foundry to explore a funding model for a Youth Wellness Centre (YWC)
estimated to cost between $4.2 and $4.6 million.
To date, limited capital funding from other sources has been secured and MRPMCS has requested
that the City provide $4.15 million toward this project to be repaid by MRPMCS.
Staff recommend that the City contribute the use of the land adjacent to Greg Moore Youth Centre
for the construction of the YWC. Additional options have been provided so that Council can select
the appropriate level of support. Recommendation #2 has a combined value equivalent to 20% of
the overall project cost, and each subsequent recommendation increases in value. If one or more
recommendation is approved, it will provide substantial seed funding with which MRPMCS and YWC
Fundraising Committee can leverage additional funding to enable this project to proceed.
RECOMMENDATION:
That one of the following options be provided to Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Community Services for
the construction of a Youth Wellness Centre:
1.Use of the land adjacent to Greg Moore Youth Centre valued at approximately $500,000.
Or,
2.Use of the land adjacent to Greg Moore Youth Centre valued at approximately $500,000;
and a cash contribution of $500,000, contingent on the balance of funding being secured.
Or,
3.Use of the land adjacent to Greg Moore Youth Centre valued at approximately $500,000;
and, a loan of $750,000 funded from General Revenue Accumulated Surplus to be repaid
over an initial five year period.

REPORT: Funding Model for Youth Wellness Centre Concept Page 2 of 4
Date: March 27, 2018
DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context:
On July 11, 2017, Council asked staff to investigate the feasibility and cost of constructing a
YWC adjacent to the Greg Moore Youth Centre. The responding report received by Council on
December 5, 2017 included a concept plan and Class “D” funding estimates (Attachment 1).
Following presentation of the YWC concept, Council asked staff to work with MRPMCS and
the Foundry to explore a funding model for this project.
The total capital contribution that has been confirmed toward construction costs is
$450,000 provided by the Foundry, funded through the BC Ministry of Health. Staff have
met a number of times with MRPMCS/Foundry and have participated in meetings with our
Provincial and Federal representatives regarding this project. Typically, a project such as this
would fall under a provincial mandate as the services provided are health related. However,
no additional financial commitment has yet been made by the Provincial or Federal
Government. Likewise, the YWC Fundraising Committee’s efforts to secure donor funding
have not yet confirmed a financial commitment.
Consequently, MRPMCS has asked the City to fund the remaining $4.15 million required for
this project to proceed and to allow MRPMCS to repay it at a rate of $150,000 per year
(Attachment 2). Without additional capital contributions from other sources, it is likely that
the payback time would be close to 30 years not including interest. Due to the financial
burden this would place on the City, staff have recommended an alternate approach,
described under Section (e) Business Plan/Financial Implications.
b) Desired Outcome:
The desired outcome is to provide youth and families with enhanced access to mental health
and addictions services in a timely manner as part of a holistic wellness approach. Ideally,
the Provincial and Federal Government would play a significant role in funding this project.
c) Strategic Alignment:
This project aligns with recommendations in the Maple Ridge Youth Strategy adopted in
2017, and the City’s support to date towards the development of a Youth Wellness Centre.
d) Citizen/Customer Implications:
Foundry operates in a number of cities across BC. This proposed Community
Services/Foundry YWC would be the first of its kind in BC, and according to Foundry, Maple
Ridge would be considered a flagship site. MRPMCS confirme d that there is demand for the
services provided at the YWC. During the YWC pilot, a reduction in wait times for services
was realized, making support for mental health and substance use challenges more
accessible to youth in our community.
e) Business Plan/Financial Implications:
MRPMCS has requested a loan of $4.15 million from the City. Council could consider
authorizing the use of General Revenue Accumulated Surplus for this project. However,
without contributions from other sources, the lengthy payback time would place a significant
financial burden on the City.
REPORT: Funding Model for Youth Wellness Centre Concept Page 3 of 4
Date: March 27, 2018
Staff have provided four options for Council to consider. Whichever recommendation is
supported, it will provide a significant contribution with which MRPMCS and the YWC
Fundraising Committee can leverage additional support for this project. The options include
different combinations of the following elements:
1. The use of land adjacent to Greg Moore Youth Centre for the construction of the Youth
Wellness Centre. This can be provided without additional funding as the City already
owns this land, which has an estimated value of $500,000.
2. A cash contribution of $500,000 toward the construction of a Youth Wellness Centre,
funded from General Revenue Accumulated Surplus and contingent on Maple Ridge/Pitt
Meadows Community Services securing the balance of funding.
3. The provision of $750,000 toward construction of a Youth Wellness Centre, funded from
General Revenue Accumulated Surplus on the understanding that it will be repaid by the
MRPMCS over an initial five year period. This is consistent with what MRPMCS has
indicated that they can contribute on an annual basis.
If all three options are supported, it would result in the availability of land valued at
$500,000, plus $1,250,000 ($500,000 contribution plus $750,000 loan) for MRPMCS to
leverage requests for financial support to senior levels of government and potential donors.
If the project proceeds, it is anticipated that the YWC would become a city owned asset, in
which case, it is expected that there would be some annual costs to the City associated with
maintaining the envelope of the building. The rights and responsibilities of each party would
be defined within construction and operating agreements that would come before Council for
approval, if the full funding for this project is secured.
CONCLUSIONS:
Staff considered a number of funding scenarios during the preparation of this report. Funding model
options were limited by the modest financial commitment of $450,000 toward construction costs to
date. MRPMCS anticipates that more support will be achieved in the future.
If one of the suggested recommendations is endorsed, it will demonstrate a significant level of
support from the City toward this project, while keeping the opportunity for the Provincial and Federal
governments to participate.

FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: Youth Wellness Centre Concept and Funding Estimate
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
At the July 11, 2017 Council meeting, Council directed staff to investigate the possibility and cost of
constructing a Youth Wellness Centre adjacent to the Greg Moore Youth Centre.
Staff secured the services of HCMA Architects to develop a Youth Wellness Centre concept drawing
and a class “D” cost estimate.
HCMA Architects consulted with the partners in this project, Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows
Community Services (CS), The Youth Wellness Centre Steering Committee and the Foundry and has
confirmed; the building site adjacent to the Greg Moore Youth Centre and Maple Ridge Leisure
Centre is suitable and can accommodate a 9,000 ft2 Youth Wellness Centre (with some shared
space) at an estimated cost of $4.2M to $4.6M.
At this time a capital funding model has not been identified, however, the local Foundry Centre (The
Youth Wellness Centre) will receive $500,000 annually in provincial funding for operations as well as
approximately $400,000 through government and philanthropic funds for initial establishment costs.
RECOMMENDATION:
That staff be directed to work with Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Community Services and the
Foundry to explore a funding model for the Youth Wellness Centre Concept referenced in the report
dated December 5, 2017.
DISCUSSION:
a)Background Context:
In 2016, surveys were conducted with youth, emerging adults, parents and other adults
through the Strong Kids Team and the Maple Ridge Youth Strategy Project. Information
gathered from these surveys indicated that substance use and mental health concerns
among youth ranked highest by both the adult and youth respondents. Consequently,
recommendations in the Youth Strategy identified the creation of a Youth Wellness Centre as
a priority.
2
As noted in a May 16, 2016 report to Council, the Ridge Meadows Child and Youth Mental
Health Substance Use Collaborative (the Collaborative), supported by the Division of Family
Practice and CS, has been working towards the development of such a centre. On May 16,
2016 Council approved the allocation of $10,000 in seed money to the Collaborative to
complete the funding needs necessary to begin the pilot phase of the Youth Wellness Centre.
Currently, a Youth Wellness Centre pilot is operating out of the Greg Moore Youth Centre for a
total of 20 hours/week under a two year lease with the City of Maple Ridge.
Recently, the Collaborative, under the umbrella of CS, secured ongoing funding of $500,000
to operate as a Foundry site as well as approximately $400,000 through government and
philanthropic funds for initial establishment costs.
At the July 11, 2017 Council meeting, staff was directed to investigate the possibility and
cost of constructing a Youth Wellness Centre adjacent to the Greg Moore Youth Centre. Staff
secured the services of HCMA Architects to determine the feasibility of an addition to the
Greg Moore Youth Centre and to develop a building concept and costing estimates.
HCMA Architects and their costing consultants have confirmed the building site adjacent to
the Greg Moore Youth Centre and Maple Ridge Leisure Centre can accommodate a 9,000 ft2
(which includes shared space) Youth Wellness Centre at an estimated cost of $4.2M to
$4.6M based on a Class “D” costing estimate (page 12 of the report) which includes:
contingency funding;
pricing based on Q4 2017 lower mainland dollars with a two-year escalation; and
a presumed standard project delivery system.
HCMA provided two options that support the feedback received from stakeholder groups
(City staff, CS staff, the Youth Wellness Centre staff/Board Members, Maple Ridge Youth
Council and Foundry staff). Based on this consultation and site constraints, staff and HCMA
Architects have selected Option #1A as the preferred option (see drawings attached).
b)Desired Outcome:
The desired outcome is that Council is fully informed to consider a purpose built youth
wellness facility adjacent to the Greg Moore Youth Centre and that youth and families get
access to life-changing health care, mental health and addictions services as part of a one
stop youth services continuum.
c)Strategic Alignment:
This project aligns with recommendations in the Maple Ridge Youth Strategy and with the
City’s support to date towards the development of a Youth Wellness Centre.
d)Citizen/Customer Implications:
Children, youth and their families would have increased and timely access to services in the
areas of mental health and substance use. A full service permanent Youth Wellness Centre
will provide local support and treatment options for residents of Maple Ridge. It will also
provide opportunities to build resiliency in children, youth and their families.
e)Interdepartmental Implications:
Various departments work with the Parks, Recreation & Culture department on new facility
projects including Planning, Engineering, Building, Clerks, Communications and Finance.
3
f)Business Plan/Financial Implications:
If this project moves forward, a funding source and the City’s contribution will need to be
confirmed. The total capital costs are $4.2M to $4.6M.
g)Alternatives:
That the City gives direction to Community Services to find an alternate location.
CONCLUSIONS:
There is a demonstrated need for enhanced mental health and addiction services for children and
youth in the community. The achievement of the Maple Ridge Youth Wellness Centre (Foundry) pilot
project has been a significant community success to date. The continued community collaboration
will assist in evolving the Youth Wellness Centre into a sustainable full time model.

EXISTING SITE CONSIDERATIONS
Above: Existing Site Constraints
Above: Proposed Site Location
Proposed Youth Wellness
Centre Location
Greg Moore Indoor Skate Park
• The proposed facility location is located adjacent to and will take
advantage of programmatic sharing with the Greg Moore Youth Centre
• Existing users adjacent to the site include Maple Ridge Leisure Centre,
Walmart, Haney Place Mall. Surrounding neighbours include The ACT
Arts Centre, Maple Ridge Public Library, WorkBC and the City of Maple
Ridge.
• Civil review indicates that water line and or storm/sanitary lines may
need to be re-routed in order to accommodate the new facility. A civil
survey should be conducted to determine exact location of services.
Further studies required at next stage include:
• A transportation and parking study will be required to determine parking
demand and whether existing underground parking will be sufficient.
• Seismic study is needed to determine any requirements.
• A contractor should be consulted to investigate sequencing to ensure
continued operation of the existing leisure centre throughout construction.
CONCEPT DESIGN | NOVEMBER 2017 p. 5 Site StrategyMaple Ridge Youth Wellness CentreSITE LAYOUT OPTIONS
Two main site layout options were developed to take into consideration the major site constraints
including underground civil services, existing emergency exits from adjacent buildings, and
connection to the existing Greg Moore Youth Centre.
Option 1
Option 1A and 1B re-route existing fire exits from the Maple Ridge Leisure Centre to the west
along the building's south wall, to allow the new building to internally connect to the existing Youth
Centre. Option 1A is the most optimal layout, while Option 1B is set back from underground civil
services to prevent the need for relocation.
Pros
• Strong internal connection to the existing Greg Moore Youth Centre allows for shared and
integrated program use as well as sight lines from reception into both youth centres
• Increased outdoor area to the west will allow for outdoor programming
• Need for fire rating emergency exiting on one side of building only
Cons
• Increased length of emergency exit route means more buildable area is required
Option 2
Option 2A and 2B re-route existing fire exits from the existing Maple Ridge Leisure Centre using
the shortest route possible. Option 2A is the most optimal layout, while Option 2B is set back from
underground civil services to prevent the need for relocation.
Pros
• Decreased length of emergency exit route increases buildable area
Cons
• Internal connection to the existing Greg Moore Youth Centre is not possible
• Decreased internal sight lines from reception into both youth centres
• Courtyard space between youth centres creates both fire rating challenges as well as CPTED
safety concerns; this space is not programmable as it serves as emergency egress.
The Preferred Option
Site layout Option 1A was chosen as the favored option. This option reduces the complexity of fire
rating emergency exiting; allows for an interior connection to and shared programmatic use with
the existing Youth Centre; and offers the most functional programmatic layout.

PROGRAM
The program was developed in consultation with
City and Foundry staff. A baseline program list
was provided by the Foundry and HCMA worked
with city staff to refine program and determine
program sharing opportunities between the new
Youth Wellness Centre and the Greg Moore Youth
Centre. The Youth Centre has a demonstration
kitchen and multipurpose room, as well as office
spaces that can be repurposed as two meeting
rooms to the needs of the Youth Wellness Centre.
These spaces will be shared between the centres,
but will need renovation.
The diagram on this page illustrate the key
program components and the full area schedule
can be found in the appendix.
Parking
A parking study will be required to determine
demand and whether existing underground
parking is sufficient to meet the Youth Wellness
Centre needs.

PROPERTY LINE
The Concept Layout is a further development of site layout option 1A. It
transforms what is currently vacant and unprogrammed pedestrian lane into
an active and friendly frontage with high levels of transparency, programmable
outdoor spaces, and new landscaping towards the west and the south. The
building entry is oriented toward the west, allowing youth a discreet and separate
entrance from the Greg Moore Youth Centre.
Foundry provided precedent plans for youth wellness centres which were
referenced for typical layout planning. The reception, washrooms, client storage,
family meeting rooms and vertical circulation are centrally located around the
client waiting area. This space will meet a variety of seating and social needs. The
waiting area is also internally connected to the Greg More Youth Centre to take
advantage of shared program opportunities, such as meeting rooms (repurposed
from office/client rooms) and a multipurpose room and kitchen that will be
renovated.
Staff workstations are located in an open-plan office behind the reception on
the west side of the building. This active frontage will address existing CPETD
safety issues in the pedestrian lane, which is currently un-monitored. A patio
surrounded by enhanced landscaping is accessed from the staff work area,
allowing the programming of the space to extend to the outdoors. Client talking
and counseling rooms are located at the back for privacy and share circulation
with the staff work area, increasing layout efficiency and functionality.
Enhanced exterior lighting will be required to ensure the entrance to the centre
is identifiable and well-lit. Additionally, the lighting along the entire length of the
pedestrian corridor between Haney Place Mall and Greg Moore Youth Centre
and the Maple Ridge Youth Wellness Centre will need to be upgraded to
enhance CPETD safety.
The existing water line running east-west will either need to be re-routed or
modified to allow for future maintenance. The same applies to the storm and
sanitary supply to the existing leisure centre. The existing gas line and meter will
also need to be relocated. A civil engineer will need to be consulted to determine
the full extent of the works.
Coordination will also be required with the Leisure Centre; retro-fit vents are
planned for the south wall and modifications may be required to accommodate
the Youth Wellness Centre.

Client areas that require a higher level of privacy are located at the second
level. Clinical exam rooms and support spaces are adjacent to the stair and
elevator, easily accessed from the waiting room below, but are oriented
towards the rear of the building to provide clients with increased privacy.
A second client waiting area doubles as a breakout multipurpose space.
Additional staff workstations are located along the south edge of the
building similar to level 1. Further client counseling / talking rooms that
may require more privacy are located adjacent to the open staff work area.
An additional stair located at the west side of the building serves as both
emergency egress and a secondary circulation route for staff.

REPORT: Award of Contract - Arthur Peake Field Civil Works Page 1 of 3
Date: March 27, 2018
City of Maple Ridge
TO: Her Worship Mayor Nicole Read MEETING DATE: March 27, 2018
and Members of Council DOC NO: 1908200
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: Award of Contract - Arthur Peake Field Civil Works
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The cost to redevelop the sports field at the Arthur Peake Centre into a synthetic surface is contained
within the City’s Adopted Financial Plan. Once complete, the upgraded field will increase allocation
times for our sports user groups who are requesting additional field time due to growth in
participation. The development timeline for this field upgrade and parking lot expansion is planned
to occur through the spring and summer, with completion in September 2018 in advance of the
fall/winter sports season.
An Invitation to Tender for the civil works to redevelop the field and construct a parking lot to support
the field use was issued on December 14, 2017 and closed on February 7, 2018. Seven tenders
were received. Staff has reviewed the tender including optional price items, and recommend that the
project be awarded to the lowest qualified submission, received from Cedar Crest Lands (BC) Ltd. in
the amount of $2,493,000.00 (excluding taxes).
RECOMMENDATION:
That Contract ITT-PL17-79: Artificial Turf Field - Civil Works for Arthur Peake / Golden Ears
Elementary be awarded to Cedar Crest Lands (BC) Ltd. in the amount of $2,493,000 plus taxes, as
well as a contingency of $300,000 be authorized; and
That the Financial Plan Bylaw be amended to include an additional $700,000 from the Gaming
Revenue Reserve for the Arthur Peake Synthetic Field project; and further
That the Corporate Officer be authorized to execute the contract.
DISCUSSION:
a)Background Context:
The field design process included consultation with sports user groups, School District No. 42
and the community to obtain feedback. A community open house was held at Thomas Haney
Secondary School on July 19, 2017, advertised through park posters, neighbourhood mail
outs, social media and on the City’s park development webpage. The presentation materials
were posted on the park development webpage as well, providing an opportunity for
residents to review the material at their leisure. The field concept was generally supported by
the community, though neighbours expressed some concerns regarding impacts due to
noise, lights, traffic, parking and loss of privacy arising from field operations, as well as the

loss of the existing grass field. A session was held with concerned neighbours on September
18, 2017, and individual vegetation and buffer treatments have been included in the design
to address their concerns. Comments have been received questioning the health impacts of
synthetic surfaces, particularly for an elementary school playfield. Through additional
discussion with parents at Golden Ears Elementary School, staff learned that concerns focus
on the proposed use of recycled crumb rubber tire infill material. In response, staff is
requiring alternative infill options at this site within the synthetic carpet proposal call.
An Invitation to Tender for the sports field and parking lot civil works was issued through BC
Bid on December 14, 2017 and closed on February 7, 2018. Seven tenders were received
with the total tender prices (including all optional and alternate work) ranging from a low of
$2,428,885.00 to a high of $3,379,274.00. Tenders were checked for completeness and
compliance with the Invitation to Tender documents, and five of seven tenders were found to
be compliant. Upon further evaluation, the two lowest submitted tenders did not
demonstrate that they had the experience or ability required to complete the work to the
City’s satisfaction.
The three remaining qualified bid results are listed below from lowest to highest price.
Cedar Crest Lands (BC) Ltd. $2,493,000.00
Canadian Landscape and Civil Services Ltd. $2,714,256.00
Arsalan Construction Ltd. $2,888,000.00
Cedar Crest Lands (BC) Ltd. is experienced in synthetic field construction with recent projects
throughout the Lower Mainland and has tendered the lowest qualified bid.
b) Desired Outcome:
The desired outcome is to obtain Council approval to award the contract ITT-PL17-79:
Artificial Turf Field - Civil Works for Arthur Peake / Golden Ears Elementary so that work can
commence to construct the synthetic field and parking area to enhance recreation
opportunities at this facility, with completion targeted for September 2018.
c) Strategic Alignment:
This project is one of a number of Council’s current infrastructure priorities. The field at
Arthur Peake Centre/Golden Ears Elementary School, along with the Karina LeBlanc field at
Merkley Park, will add allocation times for both practice and game play for our sports user
groups who have been requesting additional field time due to growth in participation.
d) Citizen/Customer Implications:
Sports user groups will benefit from the provision of increased field capacity in the short
term. Providing synthetic sports surfaces enables additional game play with fewer closures
due to fall/winter adverse weather conditions which do not support natural turf growth.
e) Interdepartmental Implications:
The Engineering Department was consulted during the detailed design process to ensure site
servicing is to City standards.
f) Business Plan/Financial Implications:
Funding in the amount of $3,000,000.00 from Capital Works Reserves is included in the
Adopted Financial Plan, which can accommodate redevelopment of the field. However,
higher than anticipated costs for civil works has resulted in a funding shortfall for the next
phase of this project, which includes installation of the synthetic turf. Therefore, staff are
REPORT: Award of Contract - Arthur Peake Field Civil Works Page 3 of 3
Date: March 27, 2018
recommending that the project budget be increased at this time by $700,000.00 using
Gaming Revenue which is intended to be used for non-recurring items, and in particular,
capital improvements of benefit to the community. This fund has the capacity available to
accommodate this amount.
CONCLUSIONS:
The planned synthetic field redevelopment at Arthur Peake Centre is needed to deliver additional
field allocation to the community. Staff is satisfied with the tender submissions and recommend that
the project be awarded to Cedar Crest Lands (BC) Ltd. to begin the work for completion in advance of
the 2018 fall/winter sports season.
