and Members of Council FILE NO: 2017-074-RZ
FROM: Chief Administrative Officer MEETING: C o W
SUBJECT: Second Reading
Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7315-2017;
20383 Ospring Street
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
An application has been received to rezone the subject property located at 20383 Ospring Street
from RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential) to R-1 (Residential District), to permit a future subdivision
of 2 lots. Council granted first reading to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7315-2017 on May 9, 2017.
The minimum lot size for the current RS-1 zone is 681 m2.
This application is in compliance with the OCP for the Hammond Area Plan.
Pursuant to Council policy, this application is subject to the Community Amenity Contribution
Program at a rate of $5,100.00 per single family lot which, for subdivisions of 3 lots or less, applies
to each additional lot created, for an estimated amount of $5100.00.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1) That Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7315-2017 be given second reading, and be forwarded to Public
Hearing;
2) That the following terms and conditions be met prior to final reading:
i) Registration of a Rezoning Servicing Agreement as a Restrictive Covenant and receipt of
the deposit of a security, as outlined in the Agreement;
ii) Lane dedication as required;
iii) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant for the floodplain report, which addresses the
suitability of the subject property for the proposed development;
iv) Registration of a Restrictive Covenant specifying construction standards for acoustic
protection;
v) That a voluntary contribution, in the amount of $5100.00 ($5100.00/lot) be provided in
keeping with the Council Policy with regard to Community Amenity Contributions. As fewer
than 3 lots are proposed, the original lot is exempt.

DISCUSSION:
1) Background Context:
Applicant: Rhldddm Development Ltd.
Legal Description:
OCP:
Existing: SFCR (Single-Family & Compact Residential)
Proposed: SFCR (Single-Family & Compact Residential)
Zoning:
Existing: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential)
Proposed: R-1 (Residential District)
Surrounding Uses:
Surrounding Uses:
North: Use: Railway
Zone: Multiple Zones
Designation: Multiple Designations
South: Use: Urban Residential
Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential)
Designation: SFCR (Single-Family & Compact Residential)
East: Use: Urban Residential
Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential
Designation: SFCR (Single-Family & Compact Residential)
West: Use: Urban Residential
Zone: RS-1 (One Family Urban Residential
Designation: SFCR (Single-Family & Compact Residential)
Existing Use of Property: Vacant
Proposed Use of Property: Single Family
Site Area: 891 m2
Access: Ospring Street
Servicing requirement: Urban Standard
2) Project Description:
The subject property is a vacant lot in Lower Hammond, adjacent to the railway tracks that separate
Upper and Lower Hammond. Due to this site context, sound attenuation with specific construction
standards will be required. Registration of a restrictive covenant for this purpose will be required.
Property records indicate that a portion of the site is within floodplain. For this reason, a floodplain
report and covenant will be required.
This application will utilize the improved development options in the recently adopted Hammond
Area Plan to rezone the property to R-1 Residential District in order to create two single family lots.
Although lane dedication will be required, the property has sufficient lot area for this purpose.
- 3 -
3) Planning Analysis:
i) Official Community Plan:
The development site is located within the Hammond Area Plan and is currently designated Single
Family & Compact Residential. The intent of this designation is to allow residential density increases
that are compatible with existing single family neighbourhoods and character. This designation is
consistent with the proposed R-1 Residential District Zone.
ii) Zoning Bylaw:
The minimum lot size for the current RS-1 One Family Urban Residential zone is 681 m2. The
proposed R-1 (Residential District) Zone is 371 m2. The portion of the site that is designated
floodplain is within the front yard setback of the site.
iii) Off-Street Parking And Loading Bylaw:
The Off-Street Parking and Loading Bylaw requires 2.0 parking spaces per one family dwelling unit.
Secondary suites must provide 1.0 parking spaces per suite. The proposed lot sizes are larger than
the minimum required minimum parcel size, and all required parking should be readily
accommodated as off-street parking.
iv) Proposed Variances:
A Development Variance Permit application will be required to secure the following relaxations:
Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510 -1985, Schedule D, R-1 Zone, minimum lot depth:
Due to the required lane dedication, the resulting lot depth will be slightly less than the minimum
depth, thereby requiring a variance.
Maple Ridge Zoning Bylaw No. 3510 -1985, fence height:
The applicant is seeking to develop the property with substantial sound attenuation due to its
proximity to the railway tracks. For this reason, overheight acoustic fencing is proposed.
The requested variances to the general regulations for fence height and for lot depth in the RS-1
zone will be the subject of a future Council report.
4) Interdepartmental Implications:
i) Engineering Department: The Engineering Department has established standards for
development in this location, requiring redress of deficiencies such as curb and gutter, road
pavement width, and lane dedication. Cash-in-lieu will be a likely means for future redress.
Underground servicing of lots is required, although overhead wiring will remain. Street light
upgrades will also be required.
ii) License, Permits and Bylaws Department: The building department will require a floodplain
report due to portion of the site that is within the floodplain.
iii) Fire Department: The Fire Department notes that each new lot will need its own address.
- 4 -
5) Intergovernmental Issues: Referrals have been made to the contact for CP Railway and also to
the Katzie First Nation for this proposal. To date, no responses have been received.
6) Citizen/Customer Implications: Opportunities for public input will be made through the
required Public Hearing and through the neighbour notification required prior to issuance of
the required Development Variance Permit.
CONCLUSION:
It is recommended that second reading be given to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7315-2017, and that
application 2017-074-RZ be forwarded to Public Hearing.

SUBJECT: First and Second Reading
Official Community Plan Amending Bylaw No. 7499-2018;
Second Reading
Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7442-2018;
23084 and 23100 Lougheed Highway
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This application for the subject properties located at 23084 and 23100 Lougheed Highway
(Appendix A and Appendix B) to rezone from RS-3 (One Family Rural Residential) to RM-4 (Multiple
Family Residential District), to permit a future project originally with approximately 32 townhouses,
was deferred by Council on October 2, 2018 and again on November 13, 2018. The revised
proposal subject to this report is for 30 townhouse units.
OCP Amending Bylaw No. 7499-2018 (Appendix C) is pending first and second readings and Zone
Amending Bylaw No. 7442-2018 (Appendix D) was granted first reading by Council on March 13,
2018. The bylaw map appendices for both Amending Bylaws are replaced by ones reflecting the
modified Conservation Designation boundary towards the northern part of the development.
The project requires a series of variances, including exemption from the underground parking
requirement, reduced setbacks and selective increased height, in large part due to the awkwardly
shaped triangular development site.
The issues leading to the deferrals of this application are the following:
Density bonus and aging-in-place measures
Parking (tandem, visitor and on-street)
Fire Access
Trail Access
Revised plans for 30 townhouse units, variances to accommodate the project as revised and an
explanation of the changes in relation to the above matters and the revised plans are attached as
Appendix F and G.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1) That, in accordance with Section 475 of the Local Government Act, opportunity for early and
on-going consultation has been provided by way of posting Official Community Plan Amending
Bylaw No. 7499-2018 on the municipal website and requiring that the applicant host a
Development Information Meeting (DIM), and Council considers it unnecessary to provide any
further consultation opportunities, except by way of holding a Public Hearing on the bylaw;

2) Background:
This application originally for 32 townhouse units, was deferred by Council on October 2, 2018 and
again on November 13, 2018. The issues identified by Council to be resolved by the applicant
included the following:
Density bonus from RM-1 to RM-4 and aging-in-place measures:
Typically, the RM-1 Zone accommodates townhouse development with a maximum FSR of
0.60. An FSR of 0.73 is being proposed here. This density is typically accommodated by the
RM-4 Zone with underground parking for the townhomes. No underground parking is
proposed; therefore, Council deemed this request to be equivalent to a bonus density under
the City’s Density Bonus Program Allocation to Affordable Housing policy. Consequently, in
their second submission, the developer opted to make a voluntary in lieu contribution under
the policy rather than building the extra units as affordable housing.
This contribution is in addition to the usual Community-wide Community Amenity Contribution
requirement.
Selective aging in place measures will be incorporated in some of the units; however, full
adaptive housing standards are not ordinarily possible in townhouses because access
between levels is by way of stairs.
Parking:
The concern of Council is that if there is no on-street parking along Lougheed Highway and
no aprons in front of the tandem parking garages, there would not be adequate parking for
residents and visitors.
In their second submission, the developer proposed more on-site visitor parking spaces,
space in garages be specifically set aside for storage and that a covenant be registered
prohibiting parking spaces to be used as storage. However, these were deemed inadequate
and unenforceable.
Therefore, in the latest submission, with 2 fewer units there are more shared parking spaces
available and all the units with tandem parking garages were relocated to the southern part
of the site and each have aprons between the garage and the internal access road. Thus the
18 townhome units designed with tandem parking will have three (3) parking spaces each.
The project complies with the current City practice respecting tandem parking design and
more than meets the minimum parking requirement.
Fire Access:
Council expressed concern whether one entrance is sufficient or a second one, possibly an
emergency only, is required. The applicant supplied examples of townhouse projects where a
single access was provided. The Fire Department has commented that one access is
sufficient to serve this site and it is not an operational problem. Final design details are to be
reviewed and approved at the building permit stage.
Trail Access:
The applicant has interest in having a pedestrian link to the west. The benefit of achieving
this is more direct access to the future Neighbourhood Park within the Polygon development
site immediately to the west of the ravine between the subject site and the Polygon site.
At this point, there is insufficient information to determine if this is possible. Therefore,
between third and final readings, the applicant’s Qualified Environmental Professional will be
working with the City to determine if a pedestrian crossing across Morley Creek and ravine
Page 5 of 5
area is feasible. If it is, then the construction details and the cost would be reflected in the
rezoning servicing or other appropriate agreement. As well, the final details would be
included in the plans attached to the development permit report, which Council will be
considering in concert with final adoption of the rezoning.
Revised plans, variances to accommodate the project as revised and an explanation of the changes
in relation to the above matters and the revised plans are attached as Appendix F and G.
CONCLUSION:
The applicant has provided a revised development plan, in which all tandem parking spaces have an
apron and the number of units has been reduced by 2 units from, from 32 to 30. Explanations of
how the four concerns of Council have been rectified by the applicant and changes to variances are
contained in a letter from the project architect (Appendix F).
The project, provided Council is prepared to grant the setback, height and underground parking
variances and with the provision of aprons associated with tandem parking, complies with applicable
bylaws and policies.
Given the forgoing, it is recommended that first and second reading be given to OCP Amending Bylaw
No. 7499-2018, that second reading be given to Zone Amending Bylaw No. 7442-2018, and that
application 2017-390-RZ be forwarded to Public Hearing.
