Establishment of Underlying Zoning and Early Termination of Land Use Contracts for Land Use Contracts That Include Single Family Properties
(File Ref. No. 12-8060-20-009300 to 9485; 08-4430-03-11) (REDMS No. 4713081)

 

 

 

Councillor Loo entered the meeting (4:05 p.m.).

 

 

Mr. Craig distributed Land Use Contract (LUC) maps and photographs of property examples (attached to and forming part of these minutes as Schedule 1) and provided background information on the proposed establishment of underlying zoning and early termination of LUCs, highlighting that:

 

 

§   

LUCs were established in the 1970s and were used to regulate land use and development;

 

 

§   

LUCs created land use regulation similar to zoning, however; LUCs could traditionally only be amended or discharged with agreement of the property owner and the City, and as a result, LUC regulations have remained the same while the City zoning regulations have evolved over time;

 

 

§   

in 2014, the Provincial Government amended the Local Government Act to provide for the termination of all LUCs by the sunset date of June 30, 2024 and required that local government adopt underlying zoning for all properties affected by LUCs by June 30, 2022;

 

 

§   

the legislation established a process under which the local government can undertake the early termination of LUCs prior to the sunset date;

 

 

§   

the proposed bylaws would bring underlying zoning in all areas affected by LUCs that cover single family lots and would bring forward optional LUC early termination bylaws for each of the subject LUCs;

 

 

§   

the proposed underlying zoning is consistent with the current use of the property and the current zoning regulations that govern that type of use throughout the city;

 

 

§   

the RS1 zone, including the 10 sub-zones, is the most commonly used zone for single-family lots in the city and would be the recommended underlying zoning for the majority of the subject LUCs;

 

 

§   

a new ZS24 zone was created for semi-detached dwellings and a new ZS25 zone was created for small lot subdivision on Yoshida Court;

 

 

§   

new underlying zoning was created for commercial and health services;

 

 

§   

the newly created school/institutional zone would be applied to school and park sites;

 

 

§   

the proposed early termination is pursued for 93 LUCs that affect single-family lots in the city;

 

 

§   

the proposed early termination bylaws would be effective one year after adoption and could be extended at Council’s discretion;

 

 

§   

the Board of Variance (BOV) would be permitted to hear appeal applications related to the early termination of a LUC and could extend the grandfather period until the ultimate sunset date of June 30, 2024; and

 

 

§   

the BOV ruling are specific to the property owner applying for the variance ruling; and

 

 

§   

any request for appeal must be made within six months after adoption of the proposed early termination bylaws.

 

 

The Chair wished to thank staff for work done on the proposed underlying zoning and the early termination of Land Use Contracts.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig noted that (i) the effective date of the proposed early termination bylaws must be a least one year after adoption, (ii) if commercial and industrial sites are included, there are a total of 139 LUCs in the city, (iii) there are 93 single-family LUC sites in the city, (iv) comparative information of the proposed underlying zones are available in the staff report, (v) the BOV decisions on extensions of the LUC are binding, (vi) affected property owners will be mailed a Public Hearing notification booklet advising of the proposed bylaws prior to the Public Hearing, (vii) the City has created a webpage with information on the LUC early termination process.

 

 

Discussion ensued with regard to providing information to residents regarding the proposed underlying zoning and the early termination of LUCs.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig advised that (i) property owners may build on-site under the existing LUC during the one year period prior to the effective early termination date, (ii) once the proposed underlying zones are in effect, property owners may apply for rezoning, and (iii) the proposed underlying zoning could be amended under Council’s discretion.

 

 

Discussion ensued with regard to the process to appeal the proposed early termination bylaws and the criteria for applicants to claim hardship. The Chair noted that the BOV would have to develop guidelines to determine whether the applicant’s claim of hardship is valid.

 

 

Discussion then took place with respect to the province giving local government the role to develop BOV guidelines.

 

 

Discussion further ensued with respect to the proposed underlying commercial zones and in reply to queries from Committee, John Hopkins, Planner 3, noted that the proposed underlying zones would emulate what was in the original LUC and allow the same uses.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig advised that (i) it is possible to assemble and modify the use of lots following early termination of the LUC, (ii) the proposed underlying zoning must be adopted prior to the early termination of the LUC, and (iii) should proposed early termination bylaws be adopted, the BOV would have the authority to extend the LUC termination date up to the sunset date.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Hopkins noted that other municipalities in the province have examined the early termination of LUCs. He added that the City of Surrey has initiated the process to terminate LUCs.

 

 

Discussion ensued regarding the criteria for applicants to claim hardship and in reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig advised that it is difficult to speculate the reasons that applicants may claim for hardship. He added that should Council proceed with the early termination of LUCs, the Provincial legislation indicates there is no financial compensation for the early termination of a LUC.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig noted that a potential benefit to terminate LUCs would be that secondary suites would be permissible under the proposed underlying zoning. He added that staff have not examined other additional uses such as coach houses within the proposed underlying zoning, however, such uses can be examined at a later date.

 

 

In response to queries from Committee regarding awareness of the proposed early termination of LUCs, Mr. Craig noted that frontline staff will be able to provide information and can direct the public to the City website. He added that information on the City website related to the early termination of LUCs will be continually updated.

 

 

Discussion then ensued with respect to potential limited construction timelines during the one year period following adoption of proposed early termination bylaws.

 

 

Discussion further ensued with respect to the Real Estate Board being advised of the one year period following the adoption of proposed early termination bylaws where development on a LUC site can take place under the existing LUC.

 

 

Lynda Terborg, 5860 Sandpiper Court, expressed concern with respect to (i) the proposed underlying zoning for LUC 157, (ii) the information provided to residents regarding the early termination of LUCs and proposed underlying zoning, and (iii) the City examining other municipalities and their processes to terminate LUCs.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee regarding information about LUCs in real estate listings, Ms. Terborg noted that she includes LUC information in her listings to provide prospective buyers with information about the property.

 

 

Discussion took place with regard to the proposed underlying zoning in LUC 157 and in reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig advised that there was no intent to create special zoning for LUC 157. Also, he noted that the proposed underlying RS1 sub-zones are consistent with zoning in place in the immediate area.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig advised that residents can contact staff via telephone or email should they have questions regarding the early termination of LUCs. He added that the Public Hearing notification booklet that will be mailed to affected residents will include information identifying the LUC area and the proposed underlying zoning.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Joe Erceg, General Manager, Planning and Development, noted that comparative information regarding the early termination bylaws, maps and the proposed underlying zoning is available for residents. He added that detailed information on the matter is available via the City website and that residents may contact staff for additional information.

 

 

Discussion ensued with respect to potential customization of the proposed underlying zoning and in reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Erceg advised that examining customized zoning would take an extended period of time and potential development on LUC sites would continue during the time the City examines customized zoning.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig noted that the Public Hearing notification booklet provided to residents will be organized under the LUC number.

 

 

Discussion ensued with regard to the City hosting information meetings regarding LUCs prior to the Public Hearing and in response to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig noted that there are no scheduled information meetings, however; a meeting can be scheduled prior to the Public Hearing.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee regarding customized zoning and the proposed ZS25 zone, Mr. Craig noted that the dimensions of the lots in the Yoshida Court area would merit the customized ZS25 zone.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig noted that the City’s process to extinguish LUCs follow provincial requirements.

The question on the motion was not called as discussion ensued with regard to scheduling a potential public information session regarding the early termination of LUCs.

 

 

As a result of the discussion, staff were directed to schedule an information session exclusively for the public regarding the proposed underlying zoning and the early termination of Land Use Contracts prior to the Special Public Hearing scheduled on November 24, 2015.

 

 

In reply to queries from Committee, Mr. Craig advised that the Public Hearing notification booklet will contain staff contact information and would be mailed to residents prior to the Public Hearing.

 

 

Discussion then took place with regard to the Public Hearing notification, and in reply to queries from Committee, David Weber, Director City Clerk's Office, noted that the Public Hearing booklet that will be mailed to residents is the Public Hearing notice and must include specific elements in accordance with legislation. He added that should the termination bylaws be adopted, a subsequent written notice must then be mailed to property owners with information related to the BOV appeal process.

 

 

As a result of the discussion, staff were directed to inform residents that staff are available to receive inquiries regarding the proposed underlying zoning and the early termination of Land Use Contracts and include contact information in the Public Hearing notification booklet and newspaper advertisement.

 

 

The question on the motion was then called and it was CARRIED.
