Delegations from the floor on Agenda items –

Item No. 19 – PRCS Facilities Strategic Plan

Mr. John Lackner, 7620 No. 3 Road, provided information on action taken by residents 27 years ago to save Brighouse Park.  He spoke about the need to preserve the park as a heritage park, and expressed concern about the lack of sufficient parks in the area.  Mr. Lackner advised in response to questions, that he felt that the future of Brighouse Park was being threatened by the proposed Strategic Plan.  Information was then provided that even though the park had been proposed as a potential location for such facilities as a future City Centre community centre and Minoru Activity Centre, any new buildings, if constructed, would only be built on the site of existing buildings already located within the park. 

R07/12-4

It was moved and seconded

That staff examine the heritage status of Brighouse Park and the surrounding area.

CARRIED

Ms. Suzanne Haines, 8540 Citation Drive, Chair of the Richmond Arts Coalition and General Manager of the Gateway Theatre, voiced concern that the needs of the Richmond Arts Coalition, and the positive impact which the cultural and arts community could have on the City’s economy, were not recognized during the preparation of the PRCS Facilities Strategic Plan.  Ms. Haines then spoke about the relationship of the Gateway Theatre and the proposed cultural arts facility.  She suggested that instead of two facilities, one new facility of sufficient size to accommodate both the theatre and cultural arts and which would be located in a cultural precinct, would be a better way to proceed.  A copy of Ms. Haines' submission is on file in the City Clerk's Office.

Ms. Rosemary Nickerson, #33 – 5999 Andrews Road, representing the Aquatics Services Board, spoke in support of the proposed Strategic Plan, and in particular, the proposed replacement of the Minoru Aquatic Centre. 

Mr. Peter Mitchell, 6271 Nanika Crescent, expressed his appreciation for what he thought was a very comprehensive report.  He then commented on a number of opportunities relating to the proposed Strategic Plan, and in particular to the siting of a City Centre Community Centre, Aquatics and Older Adults facilities near the south-east corner of Minoru Park, or possibly at two sites within Brighouse Park.  A copy of Mr. Mitchell’s submission is attached as Schedule A and forms part of these minutes.

GIVEN THAT:

(A)

Council adopted the West Cambie Area Plan on July 24, 2006;

(B)

Development of the Alexandra Neighbourhood Area (the “Area”) at this time would be premature given the need for offsite sanitary and storm sewer utility works (the “Works”) described in the agreement entitled “Alexandra Neighbourhood Development Agreement” dated for reference June 25, 2007 ( the “Agreement”) (Attachment 1), a copy of which is on file in the office of the City Clerk, and the Works are estimated to cost $10 million, which amount is not included in the City’s five year capital program because the other projects identified in the program are required to support development already occurring;

(C)

Council considers its costs to provide the Works to be excessive;

(D)

Polygon Hennessy Green Developments Ltd. and Polygon Meridian Gate Homes Ltd. (the “Developer”) is the owner of certain lands located in the Area, which lands are to be subdivided or developed by the Developer;

(E)

In order to expedite development and servicing of the Area to facilitate development of the Developer’s Lands, Council under sections 938 and 939 of the Local Government Act wishes to require the Developer to pay 50 per cent of the cost of the Works, and Council wishes to impose an excess or extended services charge on every owner connecting to or using what Council considers to be the excess or extended services portion of the Works and to pay the Developer 50 per cent of the charges collected to a maximum of $5 million less the amount corresponding to the Developer’s proportional benefit from the Works,

COUNCIL RESOLVES THAT:

(a)

The proportion of the cost of providing the Works that Council considers constitutes an excess or extended service is 92.2 per cent, as set out in Schedule C to the Agreement;

(b)

The part of the excess or extended service that Council considers will benefit each of the parcels of land that will be served by the excess or extended service is set out in the plan of the Area entitled “Alexandra Neighbourhood Sanitary and Storm Sewer Offsite Utility Works – Benefit to Each Parcel of Land in the Area”, (the “Plan”) a copy of which Plan is on file in the office of the City Clerk, and the quantum of the benefit is based on the following calculations:

(i)

multifamily:  a maximum of 2,871 dwelling units as defined in Richmond Zoning and Development Bylaw 5300, as amended, at the rate of $1836.72 per dwelling unit;

(ii)

townhouse:  a maximum of 210 dwelling units at the rate of $3,307.47 per dwelling unit;

(iii)

commercial, including business office:  2,621,486 ft² at the rate of $1.24 per ft²;

(c)

In the Area, in relation to the number of dwelling units of multifamily or townhouse use or the gross floor area of commercial use, as applicable, permitted on an owner’s parcel under the Zoning Bylaw, there is imposed as a condition of the owner connecting to or using the excess or extended service, and, for certainty, as a condition of an owner entering into a subdivision or development servicing agreement with the City that requires the owner to connect to or use the excess or extended service, a charge related to the benefit determined under paragraph (b) as follows:

(i)

$1836.72 for every multifamily dwelling unit, other than a townhouse dwelling unit;

(ii)

$3307.47 for every townhouse dwelling unit;

(iii)

$1.24 for every square foot of commercial, including business office, use in a building or structure;

(d)

The City enters into, and the Mayor and City Clerk are authorized to execute, the Agreement, under which Agreement the City will pay the Developer 50 per cent of all charges imposed under paragraph (c) of this Resolution and actually collected by the City, with the maximum amount of the charges to be paid being $5 million less the proportional benefit of the Works to the Developer’s lands as shown on the Plan;

(e)

Every charge payable under paragraph (c) will include interest calculated annually at a rate established by “Excess or Extended Services and Latecomer Payment Interest Rate Establishment Bylaw No. 6936”, as amended;

(f)

No charges imposed and collected under paragraph (c) are payable to the Developer under the Agreement beyond fifteen years from the date the excess or extended service is completed to the standards and specifications satisfactory to the City’s General Manager of Engineering and Public Works such that the Works have been fully tested, are functional and can be used for their intended purpose, all to the satisfaction of the City’s General Manager of Engineering and Public Works as confirmed by him or her in a Certificate of Completion signed by him or her;

(g)

Council requires the Developer to connect its onsite sewer and drainage system to the Works and to contribute to the cost of the Works in accordance with the Agreement under sections 938 and 939 of the Local Government Act.
