REPORT TO COUNCIL

April 21, 2022


File: 05.1930

AUTHOR: Andy Wardell, General Manager, Finance & CFO

SUBJECT: Tax Rates Bylaw 8569, 2022

RECOMMENDATION:
THAT 'Tax Rates Bylaw 8569, 2022" is given FIRST, SECOND, and THIRD Readings.

REASON FOR REPORT:


In accordance with Section 197 of the Community Charter, Council must adopt the 2022
Tax Rates Bylaw before May 14th • As directed by Council, Staff has prepared the 2022 Tax
Rates Bylaw based on a property tax revenue Increase of 3.0% distributed evenly to classes
except where capped by the Province.

The following table details the distribution of the tax share to each property class:

2022 2021
Residential 72.1% 72.1%
Utilities 0.2% 0.2%
Major Industry - Non-capped 5.8% 5.8%
Major Industry - Capped 4.0% 4.0%
Light Industry 0.9% 0.9%
Business 16.7% 16.7%
Recreation 0.3% 0.3%
Total 100.0% 100.0%

The District's tax strategy aims at promoting vibrancy and diversification at competitive tax
rates for all classes benchmarked within the Metro Vancouver region. For 2022 rates are lower
than regional averages due to steady increases in property market values and new
construction growth.

Select small businesses within the region continue to be affected by increased assessment
valuation due to future development potential. The District continues to work with Metro
Vancouver Regional Finance Officers' sub-committees to assess potential policy tools that the
Province could implement to assist in limiting increased taxation impacts caused by current
assessment practices.

POLICY:
Section 165(3.1) of the Community Charter requires five-year financial plans to include speclflc
objectives and tax policy disclosure. The tax strategy is based on tax rate competitiveness
within the Metro Vancouver region working towards sustaining economic development and tax
growth through investment. The strategy continues to sustain an equitable and competitive
taxation environment.

Each year the tax strategy will be re-evaluated in the context of achievements to date and
prevailing economic conditions inclusive of the status of assessment appeals impacting major
industrial land valuations and potential tax loss risks.

Timing/Approval Process:
Adoption of Bylaw is required before May 14, 2022.

INFORMATION REPORT TO COMMITTEE

April 21 , 2022
File:

AUTHOR: Jaskaran Gill, Manager, Accounting and Reporting

SUBJECT: 2021 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements - Analysis

RECOMMENDATION:
THAT the 2021 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements-Analysis report be received for
information.

SUMMARY
This report is provided to present information on the District's finances for 2021 , including
highlights on the District's proactive and pivotal response to on-going impacts and changing
conditions resulting from the pandemic.

ANALYSIS

On-going COVID-19 Impact on Operations

It's been over 2 years since COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by the World Health
Organization so as expected, 2021 has been a year of continuous change. The impact has
been profound and changed our way of life and the community around us. The District and
its partner agencies have proactively managed and complied with all Public Health Orders to
keep everyone safe while continuing to deliver core community services.

Despite the on-going impacts of COVID-19, the District's results from operations were
favourable to the budget due to savings in expenses resulting from reduced activity and
offsetting any revenue shortfall, cost containment efforts, deferred or delayed work, staff
vacancies and stronger than anticipated revenues from permits, golf, film and timing of
developer contributions. Excess funds were set aside and placed in special purpose reserves
to address future costs.

Return to normal activity levels will bring new challenges including a backlog of work, higher
demand for scarce products and surging commodity prices. Maintaining our stable long-term
approach to financial planning, responsible leadership and fiscal management will be more
important than ever heading into 2022 as we address these and other new pressures and
aim to implement Council Priorities.

Variance Analysis

Highlights from the Consolidated Financial Statements for the District of North Vancouver
("District") for the year ended December 31 , 2021 focus on the:

• Statement of Financial Position - summary of financial and non-financial assets,


liabilities and accumulated surplus.

• Statement of Operations - summary of revenues , expenses and annual surplus.

• Accumulated Surplus - Note 11 to the Financial Statements.

Statement of Financial Position

($Millions) 2021 2020 Change


Financial assets $ 350.0 $ 380.1 $ (30.1)
Liabilities 178.4 215.9 (37.5)
Net financial assets 171 .6 164.2 7.4
Non-financial assets 778.4 736.5 41 .9
Accumulated surplus $ 950.0 $ 900.7 $ 49.3

The District's overall financial position improved by $49.3 million in 2021 with accumulated
surplus totalling $950.0 million (2020 - $900.7 million).

The District's "Net financial assets" is calculated as "Financial assets less Liabilities" and
indicates funds are available for future expenditures. This amount has improved $7.4 million
from 2020. This amount is related primarily to delays in the timing of capital expend itures.

Non-financial assets are the major infrastructure and other assets the District owns. These
assets increased in 2021 by $41.9 million. The increase is the result of both the renewal of
existing assets and new assets offset by disposals and depreciation.

($Millions) 2021 Budget 2021 Variance
Revenues $ 231 .1 $ 251 .1 $ 20.0
Expenses 191 .9 201 .8 (9.9)
Annual surplus $ 39.2 $ 49.3 $ 10.1

Consolidated revenues of $251 .1 million were higher than budgeted revenues of $231 .1
million by $20.0 million mainly due to:

Document: 5591238

SUBJECT: 2021 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements Analysis
April 21, 2022 Page 3

• Taxation - $0.4 million lower than budgeted due to supplementary roll adjustments
processed to refund taxes.

• Water & Sewer Utilities - $1.4 million lower than budgeted due to lower consumption
by commercial customers possibly due to operations being impacted by the pandemic
and slow to recover to pre-pandemic levels, and lower connection fee revenues.

• Parks, Recreation and Culture - $3.7 million lower due to gradual re-opening of Parks
attractions and recreation facilities with strict public health orders in place requiring
capacity limits, mandatory masks and vaccination checks.

• Other fees and charges - $11 .7 million higher than budgeted due to timing of revenue
recognition for DCC/developer/private funded capital works i.e. $5.7 million
recognized in 2021 for the Lynn Valley Trunk Sewer Main project, greater fees and
permit revenue related to construction activity.

• Transfer from Governments - $9.9 million higher than budgeted due to contributed
assets received from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MoTl) as part
of the Lower Lynn Improvements project.

• Investment Income - $0.1 million higher than budgeted due to slightly better rates on
some long term investments.

• Land Sales and Other contributions - $3.8 million higher than budgeted due to
developer contributed assets and the timing around the receipt of these contributions.

Consolidated expenses of $201 .8 million (less depreciation of $21 .5 million), were lower
than budgeted expenses by $11 .6 million. The main variances were due to:

• Parks, Recreation and Culture Services - $6.1 million lower than budgeted costs due
to gradual re-opening of facilities as a result of COVID-19, lower staffing levels,
delayed capital maintenance work and lower operating expenses.

• Water and Sewer Utility Services - $2.6 million lower than budgeted costs due to lower
water purchases from GVRD, deferred capital maintenance work, lower salaries and
other operating expenses.

• Protective Services - $0.3 million lower than budgeted costs due to savings in other
operating expenses offset by current year RCMP retro accrual. Total estimated RCMP
retro accrual of $4.35 million from 2017-2021 has been fully accrued for over the
years.

Budgets are prepared on a cash basis and include the renewal of assets and new
assets; not the depreciation of assets. As a result, actual General Government
expenses, (excluding depreciation of $21.5 million) are $2.0 million lower than
budgeted costs due to on-going impacts of COVI D-19 including shifting of project
priorities and impacts on the supply chain, use of the BC Safe Restart grant to create
a safe work environment, and lower costs in other areas resulting from the general
slowdown in activity.

• All Other Areas - $0.6 million lower than budgeted due to lower operating expenses,
salaries, consulting / contract for service work related to projects, lower cost allocation
to projects due to delays related to on-going impacts of the pandemic.

Annual Surplus - When adjusted for the $21.5 million depreciation, the District's $49.3
million annual surplus is $70.8 million and exceeds budget ($39.2 million) by $31 .6 million.

($millions) 2021 Budget 2021 Actual Difference

Annual Surplus $ 39.2 $ 49.3 $ 10.1


Depreciation 21 .5 21.5
Surplus before Depreciation 39.2 $ 70.8
$
-$ - - -31.6

• Each year this annual surplus funds the District's capital expenditures. The amended
budget in Note 16 to the financial statements profiles planned capital expenditures for
2021 at $99.5 million. Reserve funds are drawn upon to help fund the plan.

Accumulated Surplus - Note 11 to the Financial Statements

Accumulated Surplus is comprised of reserves, capital projects in progress and equity in


tangible capital assets.

Reserves - The District has a number of reserve funds for specific purposes under bylaw
8418. The bylaw provides a clear purpose for these reserve funds and aligns them with
Council priorities and long term plans. At the end of 2021 , reserve funds totalled $146.5
million which is $8.9 million higher than in 2020 and are primarily reserved for future capital
works.

The District's reserve funds are grouped into four main categories, highlights are as follows:

SUBJECT: 2021 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements Analysis
April 21 , 2022 Page 5

Operating and Risk Management- provides for the mitigation of risks and enables an
appropriate response to adverse or unplanned events.

• Assessment appeal and property tax reserve was established to fund the impacts
from tax appeals /losses.

• Working capital reserves for the utilities provide for the mitigation of risks related to
these operations.

• The COVID-19 safe restart grant remaining from 2020 was $3.3 million. After applying
the grant to pandemic impacts during 2021 the remaining balance is $0.5 million. It is
anticipated this amount will be drawn upon to mitigate pandemic driven revenue
losses and additional expenses in 2022.

Existing Capital - provides for renewal, replacement and major maintenance of existing
capital assets to maintain service levels and keep the assets in a state of good repair.

• Balances increased in this category by $5 million due to contributions to the Utilities


reserves for future capital works, flow through Metro Vancouver charges and
stabilizing utility rates.

New Capital, Initiatives and Growth - support investments in transportation and mobility,
community health and safety, climate mitigation and innovation and to fund financial impacts
as the community grows.

• Tax growth was established to match growth in property tax revenue to related
impacts on services, including on-going costs related to new assets and increased
demand on services.

Land and Housing - provides funding to preserve the value of the District's lands and
support investments in social and supportive housing.

• Land income was established to accumulate income earned from real property for the
purpose of planning, acquiring, and disposing of land and improvements as well as
servicing and other activities which improve land value.

Capital projects in progress - represent committed funds for specific projects to be


completed in future years. The balance fluctuates year over year due to the number and
magnitude of major multi-year projects in progress. Efforts are being made to catch up on
delayed work impacted by shifting priorities, resource challenges and pandemic impacts on
the supply chain.

Equity in tangible capital assets - represents District's net investment in tangible capital
assets. The $739.4 million is the remaining value of monies expended after depreciation. It is
important to note that under Public Sector Accounting Board standards the audited financial

statements are based upon historical cost. The District's assets have a replacement value of
approximately $2.5 billion.

Basis for Opinion


We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards.
Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the "Auditors'
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements" section of our auditors' report.

We are independent of the District in accordance with the ethical requirements that are

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance


for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial
statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards, and for such
internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the District's
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends
to liquidate the District or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the District's financial
reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements


Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as
a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an
auditors' report and includes our opinion.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always
detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in
the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
users taken on the basis of the financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we


exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those
risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the District's internal control.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosure made by management.

46
FINAL FOR COUNCIL APPROVAL

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of


accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty
exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the District's ability
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the financial
statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions
are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the District to cease to continue as a going
concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a matter that achieves fair presentation.

• Communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any
significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regard ing the financial information of the
entities or business activities within the group entity to express an opinion on the financial
statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the
group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

1. Significant accounting policies, continued
k) Restricted revenue
Revenues which are restricted by legislation or by agreement with external parties are deferred
and reported as restricted revenue. When qualifying expenses are incurred, restricted revenue is
recognized as revenue at amounts equal to the qualifying expenses.
I) Deferred revenue
Revenues received in advance of services to be provided are deferred until they are earned by the
provision of those services.
m) Non-financial assets
Non-financial assets are not available to discharge existing liabilities and are held for use in the
provision of services. They have useful lives extending beyond the current year and are not
intended for sale in the ordinary course of operations. They include prepaid expenses, inventories
held for consumption, tangible capital assets and other assets.

i) Inventories held for consumption


Inventories of supplies held for consumption are recorded at the lower of cost and replacement
cost. Cost is determined on a weighted average basis.

ii) Tangible capital assets


Tangible capital assets are initially recorded at cost which includes amounts that are directly
attributable to acquisition, construction, development or betterment of assets. The cost, less
residual value, of the tangible capital assets, excluding land, is depreciated on a straight-line
basis over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Asset Category Useful Li-.es (Years)


Land impro-.ements 5- 100
Buildings and building impro-.ements 2- 50
Vehicles 2-25
Furniture and equipment 4-30
Water and waste water infrastructure 15 - 100

c) Works of art and historic assets
The District manages and controls various works of art and non-operational historical
cultural assets including artifacts, paintings and sculptures located at District sites and
public display areas. These assets are not recorded as tangible capital assets and are
not depreciated.
d) Leased tangible capital assets
Leases which transfer substantially all of the benefits and risks incidental to ownership
of property are accounted for as leased tangible capital assets. All other leases are
accounted for as operating leases and the related payments are charged to expenses
as incurred.

iii) Other assets


Commissions, free rent and lease inducements are deferred and amortized over the first
term of the lease agreement, which is typically five years. Any expenses related to a tenant
that vacates prior to the end of their lease are written off immediately.
n) Capitalization of interest
Interest is capitalized whenever external debt is issued to finance the construction of assets.
When internal funds are utilized as an interim measure prior to issuing the authorized debt,
interest is capitalized based on a weighted average cost of borrowing .
o) Contaminated Sites
A liability for contaminated sites is recognized when a site is not in productive use and the
following criteria are met:

i. An environmental standard exists;


ii. Contamination exceeds the environmental standard;
iii. The District is directly responsible or accepts responsibility;
iv. It is expected that future economic benefits will be given up; and
v. A reasonable estimate of the amount can be made.

The liability is recognized as management's estimate of the cost of post-remediation including


operation, maintenance and monitoring that are an integral part of the remediation strategy for a
contaminated site. As at December 31 , 2021 , no liability for contaminated sites was recognized.
p) Government Transfers
Government transfers that are restricted are deferred as restricted revenue and then recognized
as revenue as the related expenditures are incurred or the stipulations in the related agreements
are met. Unrestricted transfers are recognized as revenue when received or if the amount to be
received can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured.
q) Post-employment benefits
Post-employment benefits also accrue to the District's employees. The liabilities related to these
benefits are actuarially determined based on the service and best estimates of retirement ages
and expected future salary and wages increases. The liabilities under these benefits plans are
accrued based on projected benefits prorated as employees render services necessary to earn
the future benefits.

1. Significant accounting policies, continued


r) Pension fund
The District and its employees make contributions to the Municipal Pension Plan. As this plan is a
multi-employer plan, contributions are expensed as incurred.
s) Use of accounting estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas
requiring the use of management estimates relate to the determination of post-employment
benefits. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Adjustments, if any, will be reflected in
the consolidated financial statements in the year that the change in estimate is made, as well as
in the year of settlement if the amount is different.
t) Related parties
Transactions with organizations that are controlled by the District are recorded at the exchange
amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.

9. Post-employment benefits
As per the terms of the various collective agreements and compensation policies, the District
provides its employees with sick days and certain employee benefits on termination and retirement.
These include service severance pay based on years of service and a full year's vacation entitlement
in the year of retirement.

The District uses an actuarial valuation to determine the estimated value of post-employment
benefits. The most recent full actuarial valuation was completed as at December 31, 2020. Results
have been extrapolated to December 31, 2021.

13. Commitments and contingencies


a) Contingent liabilities
As a member of the Metro Vancouver Regional District, the Greater Vancouver Sewerage and
Drainage District and the Greater Vancouver Water District, the District is jointly and severally
liable for the net capital liabilities of these districts. Any liability which may arise as a result will be
accounted for in the period in which the required payment is made.
b) Municipal Pension Plan
The District and its employees contribute to the Municipal Pension Plan (a jointly trusteed pension
plan). The board of trustees, representing plan members and employers, is responsible for
administering the plan, including investment of assets and administration of benefits. The plan is
a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan. Basic pension benefits are based on a formula.
As at December 31, 2020, the plan has about 220,000 active members and approximately
112,000 retired members. Active members include approximately 882 contributors from the
District.

Every three years, an actuarial valuation is performed to assess the financial position of the plan
and adequacy of plan funding. The actuary determines an appropriate combined employer and
member contribution rate to fund the plan. The actuary's calculated contribution rate is based on
the entry-age normal cost method, which produces the long term rate of member and employer
contributions sufficient to provide benefits for average future entrants to the plan. This rate may
be adjusted for the amortization of any actuarial funding surplus and will be adjusted for the
amortization of any unfunded actuarial liability.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

b) Municipal Pension Plan, continued

The most recent valuation for the Municipal Pension Plan as of December 31 , 2018 , indicated a
$2,866 million funding surplus for basic pension benefits on a going concern basis. The next
valuation will be as at December 31 , 2021 , with results available in 2022. Employers participating
in the plan record their pension expense as the amount of employer contributions made during the
fiscal year (defined contribution pension plan accounting). This is because the plan records
accrued liabilities and accrued assets for the plan in aggregate, resulting in no consistent and
reliable basis for allocating the obligation, assets and cost to the individual employers participating
in the plan.

The District paid $6,955,124 (2020 - $6,802,370) for employer contributions to the plan in fiscal
2021.
c) Third party claims and property tax appeals
Several claims have been initiated against the District in varying or unspecified amounts. In
addition, several property tax appeals have been filed with BC Assessment and are pending at
December 31 , 2021 . Any amounts payable in addition to the accrued amounts, if any, arising from
the claims and the appeals will be recorded in the year in which the amount is determinable.
Reserves have been established to fund potential additional unfavourable results.
d) Insurance
In the ordinary course of business, claims are asserted or made against the District, and the
District is currently involved in various legal actions. The outcome of these actions cannot be
determined at this time. A provision has been made in the accounts for any possible unfavourable
outcome of these actions. The amount of any loss in excess of the provision and insurance
coverage will be recorded when determinable.
e) Contractual obligations
The District has entered into an agreement with a facility manager to manage a recreational facility
for a period of 5 years commencing September 1, 1998 and renewable at the option of the facility
manager for further 5-year terms to August 31 , 2048. As part of the agreement the District has
committed to the payment of 2,800 hours of facility rental for each year ended August 31st. For
the year ended December 31, 2021, the District's liability is estimated at $651 ,059. For
succeeding years, this amount will be adjusted by any change in the Vancouver average all-in
consumer price index for the previous year.
f) Municipal Finance Authority demand notes
The District issues its debt instruments through the Municipal Finance Authority. As a condition of
these borrowings, a portion of the debenture proceeds is withheld by the Municipal Finance
Authority as a debt reserve deposit. The District also executes demand notes in connection with
each debenture whereby the District may be required to lend certain amounts to the Municipal
Finance Authority. Demand notes have been executed in the amount of $1,099,485 (2020 -
$1 ,099,485). These demand notes are contingent in nature and are therefore not recorded as
liabilities.

g) E-Comm Emergency Communications for British Columbia Incorporated ("E-Comm")
The District is a shareholder and member of E-Comm Emergency Communications for British
Columbia Incorporated (E-Comm}, whose services include: regional 911 call centre for the Greater
Vancouver Regional District, Area Wide Radio emergency communications network, dispatch
operations and records management. The District holds 1 Class A share and 1 Class B share (of a
total 36 Class A and 19 Class B shares issued and outstanding at December 31 , 2021). As a
Class A shareholder, the District is committed to paying levies for services received under a cost-
sharing formula to fund operating and capital costs of the E-Comm operations. In addition, the
District is contingently liable to cover its proportionate share of such costs should any member be

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Mayor and Councillors of the Corporation of the District of North Vancouver

Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of North Vancouver Recreation &
Culture Commission (the "Entity"), which comprise:

• the statement of financial position as at December 31 , 2021 ;

• the statement of operations for the year then ended;

• the statement of change in net debt for the year then ended;

• the statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and

• notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies

(hereinafter referred to as the "financial statements").

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of the Entity as at December 31 , 2021 and its results of operations, its
changes in net debt and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian
public sector accounting standards.

Basis for Opinion


We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards.
Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the "Auditors'
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements" section of our auditors' report.

We are independent of the Entity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant
to our audit of the financial statements in Canada and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for our audit opinion.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance


for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial
statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards, and for such
internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Entity's
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends
to liquidate the Entity or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Entity's financial reporting
process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements


Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as
a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an
auditors' report and includes our opinion .

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always
detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in
the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
users taken on the basis of the financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we


exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those
risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our opinion.

The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery , intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Entity's internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of


accounting estimates and related disclosure made by management.

76
FINAL FOR COUNCIL APPROVAL

North Vancouver Recreation & Culture Commission

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of


accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty
exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Entity's ability
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the financial
statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions
are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the Entity to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a matter that achieves fair presentation.

• Communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any
significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2021

1. Operations

The North Vancouver Recreation & Culture Commission (the "Commission") was established
under the Community Charter, SBC 2003, c.26 as amended ("the Community Charter") by the
District of North Vancouver (the "District") and the City of North Vancouver (the "City") to provide
inter-municipal recreation services. Operating since 1970, the North Vancouver Recreation and
Culture Commission Establishing Bylaws of the District (#7987) and City (#8380) were amended
in 2014 to include cultural services.

The annual contribution to the Commission by the District and the City is amended and agreed
upon periodically, and approximates the usage of the recreation facilities by the residents of the
District and the City. The current allocations are 66.06% (2020 - 66.06%) and 33.94% (2020 -
33.94%), respectively. Arts and culture grants are shared equally and building utilities are paid by
the owner municipality. Any annual operating surplus is returned to the District and the City in
proportion to the funding contribution of each, adjusted for any specific items. The District and the
City consolidate their proportionate share of the Commission's operations into their respective
annual consolidated financial statements.

The Commission's operations include the planning and delivery of a comprehensive range of
recreation and cultural programming in the community and at facilities owned by the District and
the City.

The Commission is required under the agreement between the District and the City to maintain
detailed records of tangible capital assets. In addition, the Commission is responsible for the
maintenance of these assets and charges the District and the City for capital purchases. Title to the
tangible capital assets is retained by the District and City and accordingly tangible capital assets
are not recorded in the financial statements of the Commission.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact Commission operations. In 2021, all facilities were
open but Provincial Health Orders limiting facility capacity and activity type occurred throughout the
year. Revenues have not returned to pre-pandemic levels, but expenditure savings offset the
overall financial impact. As the situation is dynamic and the ultimate duration and magnitude of the
COVID-19 pandemic is not known, an estimate of the future financial effect on the operations of the
Commission is not practical at this time.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies


a) Basis of presentation
The financial statements of the Commission have been prepared in accordance with Canadian
public sector accounting standards.

b) Inventories held for resale


Inventories held for resale are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is
determined on a weighted-average cost basis.

c) Budget information
Budget information, presented in these financial statements, was adopted by the District of
North Vancouver and the City of North Vancouver on April 12, 2021 .

2. Summary of significant accounting policies, continued

d) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recorded on an accrual basis and is recognized when it is earned. Unearned
revenue in the current period is reported on the statement of financial position as deferred
revenue or deposits.

e) Expense recognition
Expenses are recognized on an accrual basis as they are incurred as a result of the receipt of
goods and services or the creation of a legal obligation to pay.

f) Pension Fund
The Commission makes contributions to the Municipal Pension Plan. These contributions are
expensed as incurred.

g) Post-employment benefits
Post-employment benefits also accrue to the Commission's employees. The liabilities related
to these benefits are actuarially determined based on service and best estimates of retirement
ages and expected future salary and wage increases. The obligation under these benefit plans
are accrued based on projected benefits prorated as the employees render services necessary
to earn the future benefits

h) Non-financial assets
Non-financial assets are not available to discharge existing liabilities and are held for use in
the provision of services. They have useful lives extending beyond the current year and are
not intended for sale in the ordinary course of operations.

i) Use of accounting estimates


The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and the disclosure of
contingent liabilities. Areas requiring significant estimation relate to the determination of post-
employment benefits. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Adjustments, if any, will
be reflected in the financial statements in the period that the change in estimate is made, as
well as in the period of settlement if the amount is different.

j) Segment disclosure
A segment is defined as a distinguishable activity or group of activities of a government for
which it is appropriate to separately report financial information to achieve the objectives of
the standard. The Commission's activities are in only one segment and hence no additional
disclosure is required.

k) Cash
Cash is held by the District on behalf of the Commission in separate bank accounts.

the year. Interest on the receivable is paid quarterly, at a variable rate based on the District's short-
term investment performance. The amount payable to the City represents the net amount arising
from transactions between the City and the Commission throughout the year and is non-interest
bearing.

4. Deferred revenue

Deferred revenue is comprised of the following:

6. Post-employment benefits

As per the Collective Agreement and compensation policy, the Commission provides its
employees with sick days and certain employee benefits on termination and retirement. These
include severance pay based on years of service and a full year's vacation entitlement in the year
of retirement.

The Commission uses an actuarial valuation to determine the estimated value of post-employment
benefits. The most recent full actuarial valuation was completed as at December 31 , 2020. Results
have been extrapolated to December 31 , 2021 .
2021 2020

Accrued benefit obligation - beginning $ 2,486,400 $ 2,150,500


Current service cost 214,200 202,300

Unamortized actuarial loss {25,1001 {120,800)
Post-employment benefits liability $ 2 ,303,600 $ 2,365,600

Actuarial gains and losses are amortized over ten years, being the expected average remaining
service period of the related employee group, commencing the year after the gain or loss arises.

7. Commitments and contingencies

a) Pension liability
The Commission and its employees contribute to the Municipal Pension Plan (a jointly trusteed
pension plan). The board of trustees, representing plan members and employers, is responsible
for administering the plan, including investment of assets and administration of benefits. The
plan is a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan. Basic pension benefits are based on a
formula. As at December 31, 2020, the plan has about 220,000 active members and
approximately 112,000 retired members. Active members include approximately 42 ,000
contributors from local governments, including approximately 285 contributors from NVRC.

Every three years, an actuarial valuation is performed to assess the financial position of the
plan and adequacy of plan funding. The actuary determines an appropriate combined
employer and member contribution rate to fund the plan. The actuary's calculated contribution
rate is based on the entry age normal cost method, which produces the long-term rate of
member and employer contributions sufficient to provide benefits for average future entrants to
the plan. This rate may be adj usted for the amortization of any actuarial funding surplus and
will be adjusted for the amortization of any unfunded actuarial liability.

The most recent valuation for the Municipal Pension Plan as of December 31 , 2018, indicated
a $2,866 million funding surplus for basic pension benefits on a going concern basis.

Notes to the Financial Statements


December 31, 2021

7. Commitments and contingencies, continued

a) Pension liability, continued


The Commission paid $1,154,980 (2020 - $1,007,311) for employer contributions to the plan in
fiscal 2021. The next valuation will be as at December 31, 2021 with results available in 2022.

Employers participating in the plan record their pension expense as the amount of the employer
contributions made during the fiscal year (defined contribution pension plan accounting). This
is because the plan records accrued liabilities and accrued assets for the plan in aggregate,
resulting in no consistent and reliable basis for allocating the obligation, assets and cost to
individual employers participating in the plan.

b) Contingent liabilities
The Commission is currently engaged in or party to certain legal actions. Any amounts payable
in addition to the accrued amounts, if any, arising from the claims, will be recorded in the year
in which the amount is determinable.

8. Other Revenue - Covid-19 Funding

Other Revenue includes $474,319 in COVID-19 Safe Restart Grant funding. The City
contributed $152,866 (2020 - nil) and the District contributed $321,453 (2020 - nil) to fund
increased operating costs as a result of the pandemic.

9. Subsequent Event

Lions Gate Community Recreation Centre was completed in February 2022, with programs for
the public expected to start in the spring of 2022.

REPORT TO COMMITTEE

April 22, 2022


File:

AUTHOR: Andy Wardell , GM, Finance & CFO

SUBJECT: Filing under the Financial Information Act - 2021 Statement of Financial
Information (SOFI)

RECOMMENDATION:
THAT the Finance and Audit Standing Committee recommend to Council:

THAT the 2021 Statement of Financial Information (SOFI) of the District of North
Vancouver be approved.

Information Regulations of SOFI, Municipal Councils must approve the financial information
submitted to the Ministry.

employees,
c) Consolidated total of all remuneration paid to all employees reconciled to the financial
statements,

Information (SOFI)
April 22, 2022 Page 2

ANALYSIS:
In response to recurring media requests for information on local government remuneration,
focusing on select large payments, we are continuing to report using the Metro Vancouver
enhanced format that isolates base salaries from all other salary types. "Other" includes
retirements/severances, overtime, taxable benefits and all other forms of remuneration that
are not considered part of an employee's base salary.

Staff Remuneration Greater than $75,000


For staff earning greater than $75,000, remuneration totalled $44.2 million, a decrease of
approximately $0.40 million over last year, attributable in part to a 2% collective agreement
increment and step increases offset by more employees taking unpaid leaves due to COVID-
19 and work life balance. Also, there were 26 pay periods in 2021 versus 27 in 2020. Once
every 17 years there are 27 pay periods as opposed to 26 pay periods.

The decrease can be attributed to the following :

2021 Contract wage increments/step increases $ 139,252


Unpaid Leaves (459,558)
Acting pay 310,736
New hires, net of retirement (260 ,656)
Other (114,604)
$ (384,830)

For 2021 , 398 positions earned greater than $75,000 (2020-404).

The $75,000 threshold came into effect in September 2002. Inflation adjusted, using Core
CPI, the current threshold would be $109,000 resulting in 176 positions greater than the
threshold.

Payments to Suppliers Greater than $25,000


Payments to suppliers greater than $25,000 totalled $237.2 million ($38.2 million higher than
2020). These resources were disbursed to 306 suppliers (2020 - 297).

The major reasons for the year over year increase in payments to suppliers relates to the
gradual re-opening of economy and continued development and renewal of community
assets as we navigate the on-going impacts of COVID-19. The balance is attributable to the
timing of payments between fiscal years.

Respectfully submitted,

~def'

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Mayor and Councillors of the Corporation of the District of North Vancouver

Opinion

North Vancouver (the "District"), which comprise:

• the consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31 , 2021

• the consolidated statement of operations for the year then ended

• the consolidated statement of changes in net financial assets for the year then ended

• the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended

• notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies

the consolidated financial position of the District as at December 31 , 2021 and its
consolidated results of operations, its consolidated changes in net financial assets, and its
consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian public sector
accounting standards.

Basis for Opinion


We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards.
Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the "Auditors'
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements" section of our auditors' report.

We are independent of the District in accordance with the ethical requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada and we have fulfilled our other
ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

a basis for our audit opinion.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance


for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial
statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards, and for such
internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the District's
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends
to liquidate the District or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the District's financial
reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements


Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financia l statements as
a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an
auditors' report and includes our opinion.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always
detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in
the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
users taken on the basis of the financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we


exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those
risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery , intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the District's internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of


accounting estimates and related disclosure made by management.

98
FINAL FOR COUNCIL APPROVAL

~
The Corporation of the District of North Vancouver
Page 3

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of


accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty
exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the District's ability
to continue as a going concern . If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the financial
statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions
are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the District to cease to continue as a going
concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a matter that achieves fair presentation.
• Communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any
significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the
entities or business activities within the group entity to express an opinion on the financial
statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the
group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

k) Restricted revenue
Revenues which are restricted by legislation or by agreement with external parties are deferred
and reported as restricted revenue. When qualifying expenses are incurred, restricted revenue is
recognized as revenue at amounts equal to the qualifying expenses.
I) Deferred revenue
Revenues received in advance of services to be provided are deferred until they are earned by the
prov ision of those services.
m) Non-financial assets
Non-financial assets are not available to discharge existing liabilities and are held for use in the
provision of services. They have useful lives extending beyond the current year and are not
intended for sale in the ordinary course of operations. They include prepaid expenses, inventories
held for consumption, tangible capital assets and other assets.

i) Inventories held for consumption


Inventories of supplies held for consumption are recorded at the lower of cost and replacement
cost. Cost is determined on a weighted average basis.

ii) Tangible capital assets


Tangible capital assets are initially recorded at cost which includes amounts that are directly
attributable to acquisition, construction, development or betterment of assets. The cost, less
residual value, of the tangible capital assets, excluding land, is depreciated on a straight-line
basis over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Asset Category Useful Lives (Years)


Land improvements 5 -100
Buildings and building improvements 2-50
Vehicles 2 -25
Furniture and equipment 4-30
Water and waste water infrastructure 15 - 100

c) Works of art and historic assets
The District manages and controls various works of art and non-operational historical
cultural assets including artifacts, paintings and sculptures located at District sites and
public display areas. These assets are not recorded as tangible capital assets and are
not depreciated.
d) Leased tangible capital assets
Leases which transfer substantially all of the benefits and risks incidental to ownership
of property are accounted for as leased tangible capital assets. All other leases are
accounted for as operating leases and the related payments are charged to expenses
as incurred.

iii) Other assets


Commissions, free rent and lease inducements are deferred and amortized over the first
term of the lease agreement, which is typically five years. Any expenses related to a tenant
that vacates prior to the end of their lease are written off immediately.
n) Capitalization of interest
Interest is capitalized whenever external debt is issued to finance the construction of assets.
When internal funds are utilized as an interim measure prior to issuing the authorized debt,
interest is capitalized based on a weighted average cost of borrowing.
o) Contaminated Sites
A liability for contaminated sites is recognized when a site is not in productive use and the
following criteria are met:

i. An environmental standard exists;


ii. Contamination exceeds the environmental standard ;
iii. The District is directly responsible or accepts responsibility;
iv. It is expected that future economic benefits will be given up; and
v. A reasonable estimate of the amount can be made.

The liability is recognized as management's estimate of the cost of post-remediation including


operation, maintenance and monitoring that are an integral part of the remediation strategy for a
contaminated site. As at December 31, 2021 , no liability for contaminated sites was recognized .
p) Government Transfers
Government transfers that are restricted are deferred as restricted revenue and then recognized
as revenue as the related expenditures are incurred or the stipulations in the related agreements
are met. Unrestricted transfers are recognized as revenue when received or if the amount to be
received can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured.
q) Post-employment benefits
Post-employment benefits also accrue to the District's employees. The liabilities related to these
benefits are actuarially determined based on the service and best estimates of retirement ages
and expected future salary and wages increases. The liabilities under these benefits plans are
accrued based on projected benefits prorated as employees render services necessary to earn
the future benefits.

r) Pension fund
The District and its employees make contributions to the Municipal Pension Plan. As this plan is a
multi-employer plan, contributions are expensed as incurred .
s) Use of accounting estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas
requiring the use of management estimates relate to the determination of post-employment
benefits. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Adjustments, if any, will be reflected in
the consolidated financial statements in the year that the change in estimate is made, as well as
in the year of settlement if the amount is different.
t) Related parties
Transactions with organizations that are controlled by the District are recorded at the exchange
amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.

13. Commitments and contingencies


a) Contingent liabilities
As a member of the Metro Vancouver Regional District, the Greater Vancouver Sewerage and
Drainage District and the Greater Vancouver Water District, the District is jointly and severally
liable for the net capital liabilities of these districts. Any liability which may arise as a result will be
accounted for in the period in which the required payment is made.
b) Municipal Pension Plan
The District and its employees contribute to the Municipal Pension Plan (a jointly trusteed pension
plan). The board of trustees, representing plan members and employers, is responsible for
administering the plan, including investment of assets and administration of benefits. The plan is
a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan. Basic pension benefits are based on a formula.
As at December 31 , 2020, the plan has about 220,000 active members and approximately
112,000 retired members. Active members include approximately 882 contributors from the
District.

Every three years, an actuarial valuation is performed to assess the financial position of the plan
and adequacy of plan funding. The actuary determines an appropriate combined employer and
member contribution rate to fund the plan. The actuary's calculated contribution rate is based on
the entry-age normal cost method, which produces the long term rate of member and employer
contributions sufficient to provide benefits for average future entrants to the plan. This rate may
be adjusted for the amortization of any actuarial funding surplus and will be adjusted for the
amortization of any unfunded actuarial liability.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

b) Municipal Pension Plan, continued

The most recent valuation for the Municipal Pension Plan as of December 31, 2018, indicated a
$2,866 million funding surplus for basic pension benefits on a going concern basis. The next
valuation will be as at December 31, 2021, with results available in 2022. Employers participating
in the plan record their pension expense as the amount of employer contributions made during the
fiscal year (defined contribution pension plan accounting). This is because the plan records
accrued liabilities and accrued assets for the plan in aggregate, resulting in no consistent and
reliable basis for allocating the obligation, assets and cost to the individual employers participating
in the plan.

The District paid $6,955,124 (2020 - $6,802,370) for employer contributions to the plan in fiscal
2021 .
c) Third party claims and property tax appeals
Several claims have been initiated against the District in varying or unspecified amounts. In
addition, several property tax appeals have been filed with BC Assessment and are pending at
December 31, 2021. Any amounts payable in addition to the accrued amounts, if any, arising from
the claims and the appeals will be recorded in the year in which the amount is determinable.
Reserves have been established to fund potential additional unfavourable results.
d) Insurance
In the ordinary course of business, claims are asserted or made against the District, and the
District is currently involved in various legal actions. The outcome of these actions cannot be
determined at this time. A provision has been made in the accounts for any possible unfavourable
outcome of these actions. The amount of any loss in excess of the provision and insurance
coverage will be recorded when determinable.
e) Contractual obligations
The District has entered into an agreement with a facility manager to manage a recreational facility
for a period of 5 years commencing September 1, 1998 and renewable at the option of the facility
manager for further 5-year terms to August 31 , 2048. As part of the agreement the District has
committed to the payment of 2,800 hours of facility rental for each year ended August 31st. For
the year ended December 31 , 2021, the District's liability is estimated at $651 ,059. For
succeeding years, this amount will be adjusted by any change in the Vancouver average all-in
consumer price index for the previous year.
f) Municipal Finance Authority demand notes
The District issues its debt instruments through the Municipal Finance Authority. As a condition of
these borrowings, a portion of the debenture proceeds is withheld by the Municipal Finance
Authority as a debt reserve deposit. The District also executes demand notes in connection with
each debenture whereby the District may be required to lend certain amounts to the Municipal
Finance Authority. Demand notes have been executed in the amount of $1,099,485 (2020 -
$1,099,485). These demand notes are contingent in nature and are therefore not recorded as
liabilities.

SUBJECT: Extension of Temporary Outdoor Business Areas to March 31, 2023


Covid-19 Recovery

RECOMMENDATION:

THAT Bylaw 8581 , to amend the Fees and Charges Bylaw, be given first, second and third
readings .

REASON FOR REPORT:


On October 18, 2021, Council approved Bylaw 8532 which amended the Fees and Charges
Bylaw, to establish the bylaw fees and charges associated with Temporary Outdoor Business
Areas at $0.00 until June 1, 2022. Consistent with the Provincial government's most recent
extension, this report provides a bylaw amendment to further extend the expiry date of the
amended Fees and Charges Bylaw until March 31 , 2023 for Temporary Business Areas.

ANALYSIS
On May 22, 2020, the Provincial Liquor and Cannabis Regulation Branch (LCRB) issued
Policy Directive 20-13 enabling food primary (e.g. restaurants), liquor primary (e.g. pubs),
and manufacturing licensees (e.g. wineries, breweries and distilleries) to apply for a
Temporary Expanded Service Area (TESA) Authorization. All TESA authorizations were
originally set to expire on October 31 , 2020. After two previous extensions, on April 7, 2022,
the Province issued Policy Directive 22-05 further extending the expiry of TESA
authorizations until March 31, 2023.

As noted by the Province, these amendments will support local governments by providing
additional time to review applications where required for permanent expansions to licensed
service areas, and also to update any associated policies or requirements . It will also support
local businesses, including licensees by providing additional time to apply for a permanent
expansion to their service area, and mitigate risks of disruption in the use of the expanded
area during the application process.

The District has approved 43 Temporary Outdoor Business Areas both on-site (private
property) and off-site (public property, such as road allowances). Businesses continue to look
for ways to accommodate physical distancing, and the Temporary Outdoor Business Area

157 Document: 5612743


SUBJECT: Expansion of Temporary Outdoor Business Areas to March 31 , 2023
Covid-19 Recovery
Page 2

program allows for an increase in the size of the existing service areas and increased
person/patron capacities. Businesses have expressed that the Temporary Outdoor Business
Areas program should be extended, and are looking for innovative ways to attract patrons.

Fees and Charges Bylaw Amendment


The proposed bylaw amendment is included as Attachment 1. The amendment allows for the
fees and charges associated with Temporary Outdoor Business Areas to be $0.00, including
any fees that would otherwise be payable for the temporary relocation of activities associated
with a business to District road allowance. The proposed bylaw amendment will expire on
March 31, 2023.

Temporary Outdoor Business Area Policy and Guidelines


Staff are updating the District's existing administrative policy regarding Temporary Outdoor
Business Areas to bring it into alignment with the expiry date of the provincial TESA
program. Staff are also reviewing the Zoning Bylaw and expect to update administrative
guidelines and policies to allow for Permanent Outdoor Business Areas for patios and retail
spaces, where feasible, both on-site (private property) and off-site (public property).

Staff will contact each business owner that has an approved Temporary Outdoor Business
Area, to discuss any changes in the policy and guidelines. The existing approvals will be
extended until March 31, 2023, if requested by the business owner and if the space for the
patio is available. Staff will also continue to expedite any new applications for Temporary
Outdoor Business Areas.

CONCLUSION
Temporary patio spaces and outdoor business areas are tools for businesses to expand their
service areas to allow for continued physical distancing. The amendment to the Fees and
Charges Bylaw will set the bylaw fees at $0.00 for Temporary Outdoor Business Areas
through to March 31, 2023.

Options:

1. THAT Bylaw 8581 , to amend the Fees and Charges Bylaw, be given first, second and
third readings; (Staff Recommendation)

OR

2. THAT no further action be taken at this time.

REPORT TO COUNCIL

April 20, 2022


File: 13.6440.20/000.000

AUTHOR: Ryan Gilmore, Community Planner


Arielle Dalley, Community Planner

SUBJECT: Housing Options for Single Family Neighbourhoods: Public Engagement

RECOMMENDATION:
1. THAT staff are directed to initiate engagement on secondary suite size regulations and
incentives and report back to Council on engagement results, along with
recommendations for changes to the secondary suite program for Council's consideration;

2. THAT staff are directed to initiate engagement on priority sensitive infill housing types and
report back to Council on engagement results, along with recommendations for future
policy work for Council's consideration;

3. AND THAT staff are directed to initiate engagement on short-term rental regulations and
report back to Council on engagement results, along with recommendations for a
regulatory framework for Council's consideration.

REASON FOR REPORT:


At the April 11, 2022 Council Workshop, the Committee discussed housing options for single
family neighbourhoods. The Committee referred the matter of public engagement on
secondary suites, sensitive infill, and short-term rentals to Council for discussion and
direction on whether to initiate the proposed engagement. The Report to Committee entitled
"Housing Options for Single Family Neighbourhoods" (dated March 30, 2022), including the
staff presentation, is provided as Attachment 1.

SUMMARY:
This report provides information on the proposed community engagement activities and
timeline related to secondary suites, sensitive infill housing types, and short-term rentals.
This report also seeks Council's direction to initiate public engagement and report back with
findings and recommendations.

Document Number: 5595315

SUBJECT: Housing Options for Single Family Neighbourhoods: Public Engagement
April 20, 2022 Page 2

BACKGROUND:
Increasing housing diversity in single family residential neighbourhoods has been identified
as a priority in numerous District policies and initiatives. Single family neighbourhoods have
been slowly evolving to accommodate changing housing needs. Secondary suites and coach
houses, for example, have provided rental housing options, flexible living arrangements, and
the potential for supplementary rental income for families. Opportunities exist to continue
looking at single family neighbourhoods and exploring how to better accommodate the
changing needs of residents.

In 2018, Council directed staff to look at secondary suite incentive options and in 2019, the
BC Building Code was changed to remove maximum secondary suite size regulations. To
encourage the creation of larger, more family-friendly secondary suites, staff are proposing
increasing the maximum suite size in the District's Zoning Bylaw. A minimum suite size is
also being proposed to ensure the liveability of smaller suites.

There are a number of options that can be considered to expand current sensitive infill types,
such as coach houses, Small Lot Infill Areas (SLIAs), and duplex, triplex, and fourplex
developments, or to create new ones, such as allowing multiple accessory units on a lot.
Interest has been expressed by some members of Council to review the District's coach
house program in particular.

Finally, short-term rentals (residential units that are rented for a short period of time via
online platforms) can provide flexible supplemental income to households while also
indirectly supporting local businesses. Although they are not currently permitted in the
District, by introducing a regulatory framework, we can better manage potential nuisances
and help maintain long-term rental stock. Council, the public, and the Rental, Social and
Affordable Housing Task Force have provided previous input on this topic. Further feedback
on outstanding questions is desired before bringing forward a new regulatory framework for
Council's consideration.

Further engagement on one or all of these topics is recommended in order to understand the
community's priorities and preferences.

DISCUSSION:
At the April 11, 2022 Council Workshop, the Committee discussed opportunities to increase
housing diversity in single family neighbourhoods, including options for secondary suites,
sensitive infill, and short-term rentals. A summary of the proposed options and comments
heard at the workshop is provided below.

Secondary Suites
Staff proposed increasing the maximum size of secondary suites from 90 m2 (969 ft2 ) to 130
m2 (1,400 ft2 ) or 40% of the gross floor area of the single family home after permitted floor
area deductions, as well as introducing a minimum suite size requirement of 30 m2 (323 ft2 ) .
The Committee indicated general support for the proposal, and also expressed interest in
exploring larger suite sizes, accommodating more above-grade suites, and other financial or
regulatory incentives for homeowners to build suites in their homes. In response to the

SUBJECT: Housing Options for Single Family Neighbourhoods: Public Engagement
April 20, 2022 Page 3

Committee's comments, staff propose to expand the consultation approach for secondary
suites as follows:
• Obtain feedback on the proposed maximum and minimum secondary suite sizes
(original approach);
• Identify current barriers faced by homeowners and developers to constructing
secondary suites in existing or newly built homes (new);
• Understand preference on potential incentives that could encourage the construction of
more secondary suites (e.g. utility or building permit fee reductions, grants) (new); and
• Obtain feedback on and explore zoning changes necessary to promote suites that are
partially above-grade (new).

The Committee also suggested streamlining the building permit review process for
secondary suites and registering restrictive covenants to secure the long-term use and/or
affordable rent levels of secondary suites. These approaches are not recommended by staff
as significant resources would be required to implement and enforce these programs.
Further, the Committee had suggested reducing municipal property taxes for single family
homes with secondary suites. The District does not have the ability to set a different
municipal tax rate for a home with a secondary suite as municipal tax rates are based on
property class and applied to the assessed value of a property, which are both set by BC
Assessment.

Upon completion of community engagement, staff will review feedback and refine or confirm
proposed changes to size regulations. Staff will also report back on potential next steps and
incentives that would be most impactful for incentivizing the creation of more secondary
suites. Next steps could include further assessment of the incentives preferred by the public,
as well as an assessment of the overall impact they may have on the community (e.g.
reduced revenue for the District or increased utility fees for other properties).

Sensitive Infill
During the workshop, the Committee discussed infill housing opportunities that could be
expanded in the District, as well as potential concerns. These included:

• Parking and environmental impacts of locating infill in single family neighbourhoods;


• The potential that building infill housing close to Town and Village Centres may make
it more difficult in the future to assemble lands for higher density housing; and
• The high cost to build some options (e.g. coach houses, secondary suites, and new
single family homes on small lots) which can put them out of reach for people of more
limited financial means.

However, it was noted that not moving forward with a broader range of housing options
would also have impacts on the affordability and availability of housing and that even more
options may need to be considered. With approximately 55% of the District's land area under
single family zoning, enabling more housing options in these areas could have a significant
impact on increasing housing diversity.

Document Number: 5595315


165
SUBJECT: Housing Options for Single Family Neighbourhoods: Public Engagement
April 20, 2022 Page 4

Staff propose initiating engagement to obtain the community's insight into the types of infill
housing that should be prioritized, and what potential concerns need to be addressed. Staff
will report back with engagement findings and provide Council with recommendations for
future policy work, additional analysis and any further engagement that may be required.

Short-term Rentals
At the workshop, the Committee indicated a desire to set a limit on the number of days a
short-term rental can operate in order to avoid impacting the long-term rental market.
Committee members also commented that single family areas are permitted to have other
uses (e.g. home based business, child care, suites) and how these would overlay with short-
term rentals needs to be considered . Alignment of the District's proposed STR regulations
with the City of North Vancouver and District of West Vancouver, and the need for a more
proactive approach to enforcement were also discussed.

Staff have investigated the feasibility of including a limit on the number of days a short-term
rental can be operated, also known as a night cap. The experiences of other jurisdictions has
shown that enforcement of a night cap to be challenging, if not impossible. Enforcement
requires voluntary data sharing by short-term rental platforms, in addition to significant
municipal resources for data analysis, tracking, and observation to ascertain the number of
booked nights. Even with these enforcement tools in place, there are limitations on
achievable accuracy which ultimately will reduce the ability to enforce regulations.

A principal residence requirement, where short-term rentals are only permitted in a principal
dwelling unit (owned or rented), has been shown to be effective at limiting the frequency of
short-term rental activity and is easier to enforce. A principal residence dwelling unit is
where someone lives most of the year, pays their bills, cooks meals, and receives
government mail.

When residents were last consulted on short-term rentals, 64% of survey respondents were
supportive of the proposed regulatory framework. The most common comments from those
in support of a regulatory approach was a desire to see STRs permitted in secondary suites,
coach houses, and/or multi-family dwellings.

Staff propose proceeding with engagement on a regulatory approach for short-term rentals ,
with a particular focus on the following questions:
• Should short-term rentals be permitted in secondary suites and coach houses?
• Should short-term rentals be permitted in multi-family dwellings?
• Should short-term rental licences be issued to renters (with owner permission) in all
housing types where short-term rentals are permitted?

Upon completion of community and stakeholder engagement, staff will report back to Council
on engagement results, along with recommendations for a regulatory framework and
enforcement strategy for Council's consideration. Further, staff will report back with an
analysis and recommendations regarding the potential impacts of compounding uses on
single family properties.

April 20, 2022 Page 5

Similar to the District of North Vancouver, the City of North Vancouver and District of West
Vancouver have not yet developed regulatory frameworks for short-term rentals. A
comprehensive scan of municipal short-term rental regulatory approaches will be compiled
and used to further inform the District's proposed framework.

Other Housing Items


Attachment 2 provides an updated Housing Program timeline. It highlights key milestones
the District achieved in the past year as well as anticipated timing for upcoming items.
Conducting engagement on housing options for single family neighbourhoods and reporting
back with results and other deliverables is feasible within the proposed timeframe and will not
impact the timing of other housing program items, such as residential rental tenure zoning.
Should new items be added to the Community Planning work plan, then timelines will be
adjusted.

Public Engagement
Engagement will seek to understand the community preferences and priorities on each of the
following topics:
• Secondary Suites: Proposed changes to the District's suite size regulations and
other potential incentives or barriers to building secondary suites;
• Sensitive Infill: The potential for various types of sensitive infill housing; and
• Short Term Rentals: Options for a regulatory framework for short term rentals.
Should the proposed motions included in this report be approved, the recommended
approach is to conduct the engagement on all the topics concurrently. A single webpage
would be created with information about each topic, and virtual and/or in-person open
houses would also cover all three topics. The online engagement tool (e.g. survey) would
allow respondents to choose to provide feedback on all topics or only those which interest
them most. Additional stakeholder outreach is planned specifically for Short Term Rentals to
ensure feedback is received from businesses that may be impacted.

An overview of the proposed engagement activities and timelines is provided in Table 1.

In addition, staff will be targeting outreach to other stakeholders, such as youth and members
of the housing sector (e.g. builders), to gather input and feedback. Given that the topic of
short-term rentals is of particular interest to the local tourism sector, outreach to Vancouver's
North Shore Tourism Association (VNSTA) is planned.

To ensure broad awareness and participation, online and in-person engagement


opportunities will be publicized prior to and during the engagement period through various
communication channels, using both print and digital tools, including social media, email, and
the District's website. Engagement will seek to reach a broad range of residents, including
typically under-represented demographics such as seniors, youth, and young adults. This will
be done through targeted communications-including notification to the District's committees
and relevant community groups. Through the engagement, we also aim to capture the
perspectives of both renters and owners.

Open At least three virtual open houses will be hosted, one for each of the three Early June
Houses topics. If significant interest is expressed , additional virtual open houses
(virtual) could be hosted. At each virtual open house, participants will be able to
learn about the topic of focus, explore the proposed next steps, share
ideas, and provide feedback.
The virtual open houses will be in addition to any in-person events
(described below). The virtual open houses will be interactive and offer
opportunities for questions and contributions (e.g. real-time polls,
facilitated break-out discussion groups and note takers).

Online The community will be encouraged to use the District's online engagement May-
Engagement tool at any point during a three-week period to learn about each of the June
Tool topics and to share ideas and provide feedback.
Feedback collected through the online engagement tool will be considered
alongside input gathered at the open houses, and will be summarized for
Council's information.

Open House One in-person open house is planned, pending considerations relating to in- Late May

audiences that might not otherwise participate. (tentative)
Guests will be able to visit at any point during the open house. The date,
time, and location of the open house will be posted on the District's website,
and promoted via social media and other communication channels.

Pop-Ups Pop-ups will be held in high pedestrian traffic locations across the District, May -
such as libraries or recreation centres. The purpose is to provide people June
who are interested with a brief overview of each topic and let them know
how they can provide their feedback, including through the virtual or in-
person open houses and the online survey. Dates, locations, and times of
these pop-ups will be posted on the District's website and promoted via
social media.

Results from the public engagement will be used to inform the next steps for each of the
topics. For secondary suites, feedback will be used to refine or confirm proposed changes to
size regulations and to determine what incentives will be most impactful for incentivizing the
creation of secondary suites. Feedback on sensitive infill housing types will be used to help
prioritize, and inform, future policy work. On short term rentals, feedback will help to inform
the proposed regulatory framework.

Public involvement on these topics will fall within the CONSULT area of the District's Public
Engagement Spectrum. The commitment we are making is that the District will keep the public
informed, listen to and acknowledge their concerns and aspirations in developing solutions.
The District will report back to the public on how their input has influenced decisions.

RECOMMENDATION:
THAT the Committee recommend to Council:

THAT staff are directed to initiate engagement on secondary suite size regulations and
report back to Council on engagement results, along with proposed Zoning Bylaw
amendments for Council's consideration;

THAT staff are directed to initiate engagement on priority sensitive infill housing types
and report back to Council on engagement results, along with recommendations for
future policy work for Council's consideration;

AND THAT staff are directed to initiate engagement on short-term rental regulations and
report back to Council on engagement results, along with recommendations for a
regulatory framework for Council's consideration.

REASON FOR REPORT:


Increasing housing diversity in single family residential neighbourhoods has been identified
as a priority in numerous District policies and initiatives, including the OCP Action Plan and
the Rental, Social and Affordable Housing Task Force (RSAHTF) Final Report. In response,
a number of options have been identified that could lead to increased housing diversity in
single family neighbourhoods. This report provides background information and
recommends engagement be undertaken on the following housing topics:
• Secondary suites;
• Sensitive Infill, which is the addition of housing that frts within an existing single family
area without significantly altering the neighbourhood's character or appearance; and
• Short-term rentals.

Document Number: 5510136

SUMMARY:
Single family neighbourhoods have been slowly evolving to accommodate changing housing
needs. Secondary suites and coach houses, for example, have provided valuable rental
housing options, flexible living arrangements, and the potential for supplementary rental
income for families.

In response to recent changes to the BC Building Code, an opportunity exists to increase the
size of secondary suites in the District to encourage and reduce barriers for the creation of
larger, family-friendly suites. Complementary changes could also be considered to introduce
a minimum secondary suite size that would maintain the liveability of smaller suites. At the
regular meeting of Council on July 23, 2018, Council passed a motion directing staff to
prepare a report on secondary suite incentive options for Council's consideration. The
proposed changes to secondary suites discussed in this report would reduce barriers to and
encourage the creation of larger secondary suites.

Opportunities also exist to expand current options for sensitive infill, such as coach houses,
Small Lot Infill Areas (SLIAs), and duplex, triplex, and fourplex developments. Some
Councillors have expressed a particular interest in reviewing the District's coach house
program, which was last updated in January 2020. New opportunities may also be possible,
such as allowing multiple accessory units on a lot. These could increase rental and
homeownership options within single family neighbourhoods and make more efficient use of
municipal infrastructure, while maintaining the scale and character associated with lower
density single family areas.

Short-term rental (STR) refers to the rental of a residential dwelling unit facilitated by online
platforms for a short period of time, and can provide flexible supplemental income to
households while also indirectly supporting local businesses. Short-term rentals are
currently not permitted in the District. However, regulating short-term rentals is important to
ensure safe operation, manage potential nuisances, and to maintain long-term rental stock.
At the November 25, 2019 Council Workshop, Council expressed a desired to see short-term
rentals referred to the Rental, Social and Affordable Housing Task Force for feedback.
Council received the Task Force's final report in September 2021 and staff are now reporting
back to Council on next steps for a short-term rentals regulatory framework.

This report provides background on work completed to-date related to secondary suites,
sensitive infill, and short-term rentals, and makes recommendations to initiate public
engagement for each of these topics.

EXISTING POLICY:
The District has historically supported adding housing options within single family
neighbourhoods in the form of secondary suites and coach houses, or designating the use of
Small Lot Infill Areas, which enables subdivision of larger lots into smaller lots. There is also
considerable Council direction and supporting policy to expand housing diversity options in
single family neighbourhoods through sensitive infill, as identified below.

Official Community Plan (2011):


Goal 2: Encourage and enable a diverse mix of housing types, tenure and affordability
to accommodate the lifestyles and needs of people at all stages of life;
Policy 2.3.5: Identify criteria for low intensity infill housing, such as coach and laneway
housing and small lot subdivision as appropriate;
Policy 2.3.6: Enable sensitive redevelopment in appropriate areas, such as locations
adjacent to existing multifamily or commercial uses;
Policy 2.4.3: Enable sensitive densification at strategic locations along transit corridors
within the Network of Centres;
Policy 7.1.2: Undertake planning processes to identify potential low-density, multi-family
areas (e.g., townhouse, row house, triplex, and duplex) near Town and
Village Centres, neighbourhood commercial uses, and schools; designate
additional Small Lot Infill Areas; and develop criteria to identify suitable areas
to support detached accessory dwellings (e.g. coach housing);
Policy 7.2.1: Explore increasing the maximum permitted size of secondary suites; and
Policy 7.2.2: Consider permitting secondary suites or lock-off units within townhouses, row
houses and apartments.

Housing Needs Report (2021 ):


The Housing Needs Report, received by Council on December 13, 2021, outlines key areas
of housing need and highlights gaps and inequities in the District's current housing supply.
The Report highlights that the District's housing stock is comprised largely of single family
homes (52%), which are out of reach for many and may not suit the District's aging
population, and that a greater diversity of housing would support aging in place.

DISCUSSION:
The following sections provide an overview of each of the three topics that are the focus of
this report (secondary suites, sensitive infill, and short-term rentals), including work to date
and recommended next steps.

175
SUBJECT: Housing Options for Single Family Neighbourhoods
March 30, 2022 Page 4

Secondary Suites
The District has permitted secondary suites in single family homes since 1997. They are
currently permitted in:
• All single family residential zones;
• Three comprehensive single family development zones (CD14, CD34, and CD88); and
• Two multi-family residential zones (RM1 and RM2).

A map showing the location of these zones is provided as Attachment 1.

Secondary suites are a critical component of the District's rental housing stock, benefiting a
diverse group of residents such as renters looking for ground-oriented housing, homeowners
seeking rental income, and inter-generational and extended families. According to the 2020
Pace of Development, over 6,290 secondary suites had been approved in the District by the
end of 2020. This comprised 70% of the District's market rental housing stock. The 2020
Pace of Development also indicates there is an estimated demand for an addition 640 new
secondary suites by 2030.

To provide local governments with greater opportunities for the creation of affordable housing
options, the BC Building Code was revised in December 2019 to:
• Eliminate the prescribed maximum sizes for secondary suites (previously 90m2 or 40%
of the total building's residential floor area); and
• Permit the construction of secondary suites in more types of ground-oriented housing,
such as certain duplexes and townhouses (previously only permitted in single family).

With the most recent changes to the BC Building Code, the District has the opportunity to set
its own size restrictions and broaden where secondary suites can be located, in alignment with
existing District policies and Council directions. A review of secondary suite regulations was
identified by staff in a November 2020 Report to Council in response to recommendations
made by the Rental, Social and Affordable Housing Task Force in their Interim Report.

The current restriction on the size of a secondary suite in the District is a maximum of 90 m2
(969 ft2 ) or 40% of the residential floor area, whichever is less. There is no minimum size
requirement. The following amendments to secondary suite size regulations are proposed:
• Increase the maximum secondary suite size to 130 m2 (1,400 ft2 ) or 40% of the gross
floor area of the single family home after permitted floor area deductions, whichever is
less (common floor area deductions may include portions of basements below grade,
balconies, and parking structures per Section 410 of the Zoning Bylaw); and
• Introduce a 30 m2 (323 ft2 ) minimize secondary suite size requirement to maintain
liveability.

Staff believe that the proposed changes would reduce barriers to and encourage the creation
of larger secondary suites, as called for in the OCP. The proposed changes would apply to
all zones that permit secondary suites. Generally, properties within the majority of affected
zones would be able to achieve secondary suites that are larger than the current maximum
size requirement of 90 m2 (969 ft2); however, this would depend on the size of the specific lot
or single family building.
176 Document Number: 5510136
SUBJECT: Housing Options for Single Family Neighbourhoods
March 30, 2022 Page 5

Staff recommend seeking community feedback on the proposed secondary suite size
regulations. Engagement would include information on the District's website, an online
feedback form, and virtual and/or in-person open houses. Staff will report back to Council
with engagement findings, and depending on the outcomes, provide draft Zoning Bylaw
amendments for Council to consider.

Recommendation: THAT staff are directed to initiate engagement on secondary suite


size regulations and report back to Council on engagement results, along with
proposed Zoning Bylaw amendments for Council's consideration.

Staff will explore how to take advantage of the other BC Building Code changes, such as
permitting secondary suites in other ground-oriented housing types (e.g. duplexes), as part of
the sensitive infill options discussed below. Council in the past has approved lock-off units in
multi-family developments and can continue to consider these on a case-by-case basis.

Sensitive Infill
Infill housing can generally be described as housing that fits within an existing
neighbourhood without significantly altering its character or appearance. It can increase
rental and homeownership options and make more efficient use of existing municipal
infrastructure, while maintaining the scale and character associated with lower density single
family areas.

There are various types of sensitive infill housing that currently exist across the District,
including:
• Coach houses;
• Small Lot Infill Areas; and
• Duplex, triplex, and fourplex developments.

A map showing the locations of existing coach houses and Small Lot Infill Areas is provided as
Attachment 2. Examples of all three types of infill housing in the District are in Attachment 3.

Attachment 4 provides a summary of approaches used by four local municipalities with


respect to incorporating infill housing types into existing single family neighbourhoods.

A new approach that could be explored in the District is multiple accessory units on one lot.
This might include allowing secondary suites and coach houses on the same lot or allowing
secondary suites in duplexes.

Further to Council's direction under the Heritage Strategic Plan (2019) and input received
from the District's Heritage Advisory Committee, some of these types of sensitive infill could
also be explored in the context of heritage preservation. Various policy mechanisms (e.g.
density bonus zoning) could be used to enable the preservation of heritage properties with
sensitive infill. This is particularly relevant to the discussion on duplex, triplex, and fourplex
developments and multiple accessory units on one lot.

The history, status, and potential avenues of future exploration for new and existing sensitive
infill types in the District are discussed below.

Coach Houses
The District's coach house program began in 2014. Interested property owners were
required to apply for a Development Variance Permit (DVP), essentially to allow a
secondary suite to be detached from the main house. The DVP process was selected to
provide Council with the opportunity to review all initial coach house applications since
this was a new housing form in the District at the time.

Between 2015 and 2018, a total of eighteen coach houses were approved through the
Development Variance Permit process, averaging between three and four coach houses
per year. This was fewer than the five to twenty-five applications per year anticipated
when the program began.

In January 2020, after a public engagement process, Council approved a more streamlined
coach house program:
1. A simplified, building permit only approval process for one-storey coach houses on
lots at least 15 m (49.2 ft.) wide, that met one of the following criteria:
o Open lane access; or
o Corner lot on a local street.
2. The continued use of the Development Variance Permit process so that Council may
consider on a case-by-case basis two-storey coach houses and coach houses on:
o Lots greater than 929 m2 (10,000 ft2) with no lane access;
o Double-fronting lots (two street frontages) at least 15 m (49.2 ft.) wide; or
o Corner lots on collector or arterial streets.

A summary of coach house applications received from January 2020, when the above
changes were implemented, to March 8, 2022 is provided as Attachment 5. Eighteen
applications have been submitted within this time frame:
• Eleven building permit applications (seven approved and four in progress); and
• Seven DVP applications (six approved and one in progress).

Table 1, below, summarizes the total number of coach houses approved, constructed, and
in progress since 201 4 when the coach house program began. It also shows the number
of storeys and whether the coach house was approved through a Development Variance
Permit or Building Permit process.

To increase the uptake of coach houses in the District, several strategies could be
investigated, such as:
• Allowing a wider range of lots to be eligible to build a coach house, whether one
storey or two storeys (e.g. reducing minimum lot width or lot area requirements so
that coach houses could be developed on smaller lots);
• Further streamlining the process to allow more applications (e.g. one storey
applications on lots over 929 m2 (10,000 ft2 ) with no lane access) to go straight to
the building permit stage;
• Allowing more coach house applications (e.g. two storey coach houses) to be
approved through a process delegated to staff for review, which may include the
creation of a Coach House Development Permit Area;
• Reducing parking requirements and side yard setbacks to facilitate the reduction of
lot width or area requirements, thereby enabling smaller lots to be able to have a
coach house;
• Exploring options to enhance liveability and functionality (e.g. allowing crawlspaces
for storage or allowing full-height basements); and
• Updating the guidelines in the Coach House How-To Guide if any of the above
strategies are implemented to address potential concerns related to overlook and
other key issues.

Neighbouring municipalities are already utilizing or considering some of the above


proposed coach house strategies:
• The City of North Vancouver:
o Has delegated approval authority for all coach houses to the Director of
Planning;
o Requires two parking spaces on lots with coach houses (one for each unit);
o Allows basements for storage only; and
o Is anticipating approval of policy amendments that will streamline the
approval process further.
• The District of West Vancouver:
o Allows staff to approve a development permit for two-storey or one-storey
plus basement coach house applications; and
o Has eliminated parking requirements for a coach house if the lot is within
400 m of a bus stop.

Small Lot Infill Areas (SL/As)


Small Lot Infill Areas (or SLIAs) are specific parts of the District where large residential
lots can be subdivided into smaller lots of 10 m (33 ft.) in width. (Typical lot widths in the
Single-Family Residential RS3 Zone, for example, is 18 m (59 ft.) when not in a SLIA).
SLIAs were first adopted by the District in the 1980s. Prior to 2011, there were 23 SLIAs
in effect under the District's Zoning Bylaw. In early 2018, three more SLIAs were
adopted, stemming from interested residents in the Upper Capilano area (see
Attachment 2 for the 26 SLIA locations).

Small lot infill is one way to achieve a modest increase in housing units while retaining the
single family nature of a neighbourhood. Smaller houses with smaller environmental
footprints may be suitable for young families, seniors wanting to age in place and others
looking to downsize. They can also offer a level of affordability compared to larger
houses on larger lots.

It should be noted that not all large lots within SLIAs have or will be subdivided into
smaller lots. In some instances, owners may not wish to subdivide. In other cases,
technical challenges such as drainage, high groundwater table, and access in the area
may need to be resolved before a small lot subdivision can proceed. All of these issues
can increase cost and complexity for applicants and can sometimes require coordination
between neighbours and the District (e.g. lane improvements).

The District's OCP includes policy directions to undertake Neighbourhood Infill Plans and/or
Housing Actions Plans where appropriate to identify potential infill areas near Town and
Village Centres, and/or to designate additional SLIAs. This could be advanced by:
• Investigating the interest and capacity to accommodate smaller lots in areas of
transition between Town and Village Centres and single family neighbourhoods
where new SLIAs could be designated; or
• Reviewing opportunities to enable more lots to be eligible for subdivision in existing
SLIAs (e.g. consider reducing the current minimum lot width of 10 m (33 ft.) so that
smaller lots are able to subdivide).

Duplexes, Triplexes, and Fourplexes


Duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes are permitted in multi-family zones (including RM 1, 2,
3, 5, 6 & 7). The District's Zoning Bylaw does not permit duplexes, triplexes, or
fourplexes in any single family zones.

The District has approximately thirty duplex, triplex, and fourplex developments that are
outside of Town and Village Centres and close to single family neighbourhoods. This
report is focused on the potential for these infill options to be embedded within single
family neighbourhoods, rather than on large lots within Town and Village Centres meant
for comprehensive development.

To increase options for duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes in single family


neighbourhoods, the following strategies could be considered:
• Identifying priority areas where these options could be explored, including:
o Areas adjacent to Town and Village Centres where Neighbourhood Infill
Plans (as outlined in the OCP Policy 7 .1 .2) could be undertaken; or
o Specific types of heritage properties where this type of infill could be
appropriate in exchange for heritage preservation.
• Exploring a more extensive duplex, triplex, and fourplex policy that would enable
these types of housing throughout all single family neighbourhoods.

Multiple Accessory Units on One Lot (Secondary Suites & Coach Houses or Duplexes
with Secondary Suites)
Accessory units is a general term that refers to smaller units on a residential property,
which may be attached to the primary residence, or detached. In the District, accessory
units include secondary suites and coach houses. Accessory units can be a key source
of housing for seniors looking to downsize, multi-generational families, and young people
or families looking for rental options.

In a public survey conducted in fall 2018 as part of the public engagement on the coach
house program, 76% of respondents (108 people out of 142) expressed that the District
should consider allowing both coach houses and secondary suites on the same lot in
single family neighbourhoods. More recently, feedback received during the OCP
Targeted Review Engagement process highlighted the importance of increasing the
diversity of housing forms and tenures in the District to meet the needs of people at all
stages life.

The District's Zoning Bylaw does not currently permit both a secondary suite and a coach
house on the same single family lot. The City of North Vancouver and the District of West
Vancouver both permit secondary suites and coach houses on the same lot as long as
certain criteria are met (e.g. sufficient unused floor area, minimum 10 m (33 ft.) lot width,
the owner resides on the property, and parking requirements are met).

As noted earlier, the BC Building Code was updated in 2019 to permit the construction of
suites in more types of ground-oriented housing, such as duplexes and townhouses.
Both the City of North Vancouver and the District of West Vancouver also allow
secondary suites in duplexes.

As part of the work to expand housing options in the District, the following could be
explored:
• Identifying criteria for lots where both secondary suites and coach houses could be
considered (e.g. establishing lot area, width, and/or depth requirements);
• Identifying existing duplex areas where secondary suites could be considered; or
• Identifying the heritage properties where secondary suites and coach houses or
duplexes with secondary suites could be appropriate in exchange for heritage
preservation.

Identifying the types of sensitive infill housing that are of the most interest to residents will
help to prioritize future policy work on these topics. Expanding the District's existing
approaches to infill housing and considering new ones would support residents in continuing
to live in their community by providing more options to suit their different ages, needs, and
incomes.

Recommendation: THAT staff are directed to initiate engagement on priority sensitive


infill housing types and report back to Council on engagement results, along with
recommendations for future policy work for Council's consideration.

Short-Term Rentals
Short-term rental (STR) refers to the rental of a residential dwelling unit (either the entire unit
or a room), within any housing type, for a short period of time (generally less than 30 days).
Short-term rentals are facilitated by online platforms (e.g. Airbnb), and primarily used by
visitors and tourists. Short-term rentals first appeared in San Francisco in 2008 and were
initially seen as a way to earn some supplementary income and provide low cost visitor
accommodation in expensive locations. Since then there has been a substantial expansion
in short-term rentals across Canada. The business model has also shifted from home­
sharing to the rental of entire homes and non-principle dwellings at the expense of long-term
rental housing units.

With the expansion of STRs, many local communities have encountered negative impacts
associated with short term accommodation. These have included nuisances such as noise
and parking, and the loss of long-term rental housing. Local governments have responded
by developing regulatory and enforcement frameworks.

In 2017, Council considered the growing impact of short-term rentals in the District and
directed that a regulatory approach be prepared. Table 2, below, provides a summary of
Council and public engagement.

November 28, 2017 Council Workshop on the impact of short-term rentals and
re ulato o tions.
June 1 1, 2018 Report to Regular Council on a draft regulatory framework and
b laws.
June - August 2018 Public engagement on the draft regulatory framework (online
surve and three o -u events .
November 25, 2019 Council Workshop on engagement findings and three revised
options. Committee directed staff to engage with Rental, Social
and Affordable Housi

The three options presented for Council's consideration in 2019 were:

Option 1: Allow STRs in single family homes, secondary suites, and coach houses (staff
recommendation).
Option 2: Allow STRs in single family homes, secondary suites, coach houses, and
multi-family units.
Option 3: Allow STRs in single family homes only.

Common elements across the options included:


• Short term rentals only permitted in principle residence dwelling unit;
• Owner (or long-term tenant with owner's permission) would require a valid business
license;
• A maximum of 6 patrons per STR;

182
SUBJECT: Housing Options for Single Family Neighbourhoods
March 30, 2022 Page 11

• A dedicated parking space for a STR unit; and


• New fines for enforcement.

Following the 2019 workshop, staff identified the following outstanding items that emerged
from the discussion of options and which appeared to require additional engagement or
analysis:
• whether to permit STRs in suites, coach houses, and in multi-family units;
• whether to grant STR licenses to tenants (with permission of the owner); and
• whether time limits on STR listing are feasible (e.g. maximum number of nights per year).

Since 2019, the number of STR listings in the District has decreased from 960 in November
2019 to 520 in December 2021. Similarly, the number of STR-related complaints peaked in
2019 at 22 and dropping to seven in 2021. The above trends highlight the impact the
COVID-19 pandemic has had on STRs in the District.

Additionally, over the past two years best practices for regulating STRs have emerged that
allow for customizing regulations to fit the context of different communities. Five Metro
Vancouver municipalities now have regulatory frameworks in place and four others are in the
process of developing regulations. The lessons learned from other jurisdictions will be
valuable when finalizing a regulatory framework for the District.

Given that staff sought feedback from the Rental, Social, Affordable Housing Task Force and
that considerable time has elapsed since Council or the public has been engaged on the
topic of short-term rentals, staff recommend seeking further community feedback on the
proposed regulatory framework, with a particular focus on the outstanding questions outlined
above.

Recommendation: THAT staff are directed to initiate engagement on short-term rental


regulations and report back to Council on engagement results, along with
recommendations for a regulatory framework for Council's consideration.

Public Engagement
Engagement on secondary suites, sensitive infill, and short-term rentals will seek to
understand the community preferences and priorities. Engagement will use a variety of
techniques for community and stakeholder input, including virtual open houses and use of
the District's online engagement platform, and potentially in-person pop-up open houses if
public health guidance and timing permits. A brief overview of the proposed engagement
activities and timelines is provided in Table 3.

Staff are recommending that the engagement for each of the three topics take place
concurrently. This would encompass a singular webpage with information on all three topics.
Virtual and/or in-person open houses would cover all three topics. The online engagement
tool (e.g. survey) would allow respondents to choose to provide feedback on all or only those
housing types which interest them most.

Next Steps:
Should the Committee endorse staff's recommendation and forward this report to Council,
staff would prepare a subsequent report for the next available Regular Meeting of Council.
That report would seek direction to proceed with public engagement on the single family
housing options discussed above and will provide additional details on the proposed
engagement activities. Subject to Council's direction, staff will initiate public engagement
and report back to Council with findings and recommendations for Council's consideration.

Concurrence:
The Communications department has reviewed the proposed engagement plan and support
the recommendation for a combined engagement on the topics of this report.

Conclusion:
Increasing housing diversity in single family neighbourhoods will help to meet the needs of
residents of all ages, incomes, abilities, and household types. A number of District policies
and plans recommend exploring the expansion of housing options in single family
neighbourhoods through sensitive infill. By exploring these diverse housing options, the
District will be supporting young families as they seek ways to stay in the community,
children as they grow up and move out of the family home, seniors as they look to age in
place, and families wishing to live together in multi-generational homes.

Zoning Bylaw Compliance:

The construction of the proposed retaining wall and fence requires the following
variances:

Maximum
Regulation New Work Variance
Permitted
0.91 m 2.35 m 1.43 m
Retaining Wall height (7.7ft.) (4.7 ft.)
(3 ft.)
Fence height (on 1.22 m 1.43 m 0.21 m
retaining wall) (4 ft.) (4.7 ft.) (0.7ft.)

DISCUSSION:
The applicant has applied to construct a new retaining wall to replace the existing
damaged retaining wall. The existing wall is located at the edge of rear yard and
follows the rear property line. The applicant is proposing to construct a new retaining
wall in the same location with the same height as the existing retaining wall. The
proposed location of the retaining wall is shown on the site plan on the following page.

Variances:

The proposed construction of the retaining wall and fence requires two variances to the
Zoning Bylaw which are outlined below.

The maximum permitted height of a retaining wall within the rear yard setback is
0.91 m (3 ft.). The applicant is proposing a retaining wall with a height of 2.35 m (7.7
ft.) which requires a variance of 1.43 m (4. 7 ft.).

Maximum
Regulation New Work Variance
Permitted
Fence height (on 1.22 m 1.43 m 0.21 m
retaining wall) (4 ft.) (4.7 ft.) (0.7ft.)

The maximum permitted height of a fence atop a retaining wall is 1.22 m (4 ft.). The
applicant is proposing a fence with a height of 1.43 m (4. 7 ft.) which requires a variance
of 0.21 m (0.7 ft.). The previous fence which was above the retaining was 6 ft. tall, the
proposed fence is 1.3 ft. shorter than the previous fence. The fence is located over a
small "notch" in the retaining wall and provides screening to the wall. This variance is
required in order to screen the non-compliant portion of the concrete retaining wall. The
fence does not provide any structural support for the retaining wall, nor additional rear
yard privacy for the owners.

224
SUBJECT: Development Variance Permit 10.22 - 125 Kensington Cres.
April 13, 2022 Page 5

Screening the retaining wall is not a requirement of the District, this was a decision
made by the applicant to provide visual relief at street level and improve the overall
appearance of the retaining wall from the rear lane. A comparison of the existing and
proposed retaining walls is provided below and on the following page.

Notification:

An information letter was sent to the adjacent neighbours and the Norwood Queens
Community Association to inform them of the application. Six responses were provided
by neighbours, all of which expressed support for the proposed retaining wall and
complimented the aesthetics of the design. The neighbours also indicated that the
proposed design is a significant improvement to the existing condition.

226
SUBJECT: Development Variance Permit 10.22 -125 Kensington Cres.
April 13, 2022 Page 7

Redacted public comments are included in Attachment 2 to this report. As required by


the Local Government Act, and Development Procedures Bylaw 8144, notification
advising that Council will be considering whether to issue a Development Variance
Permit will be sent to owners and occupants of the subject property and the abutting
property owners and occupants. The local Community Association will also be notified
at the same time. Response to the notification will be provided to Council prior to
consideration of this application.

Conclusion:

Staff are supportive of the Development Variance Permit as the proposed retaining wall
and fence is in the same location and of the same scale as the existing wall, and
represents a significant improvement on the existing condition. The updated design has
support from the neighbours and allows the owners to maintain full use of their rear
yard.

OPTIONS:

The following options are available for Council's consideration:

1. Issue Development Variance Permit 10.22 (Attachment 1) to allow for the


construction of a retaining wall at 125 Kensington Crescent ( staff
recommendation); or

2. Deny Development Variance Permit 10.22.

At tention Dejan Teodorovic, Development Planner

I have reviewed t he 4 page document several t imes as a means of formulating an opinion to


provide t o the panel considering t his proposal.

There' s not hing wit hin said document t hat should cause any subst antive concern . I'm a-
and
, I cannot comment upon any aspect of t he engineering
design for t he st ruct ural element s. I must et hically accept that t he design is a safe and proper
design that is likely t o provide a safe and effect ive structure t hat will last for many decades.

The int ent of zon ing bylaws is to provide a general framework to act as a guideline for those
who are undert aking such work wit hout t he engagement of a prof essional engineer. Some
bylaws are in place for example t he maximum allowable height of a roof so as t o preserve t he
line of sight of views of say t he Lions Gate Bridge and limit ing the locat ions where high rise
st ructu res can be const ructed . In this particular sit uation there's no line of sight issues and
si nce it ha s been designed by a prof essional engineer t here should be no concerns regarding
t he st ru ct ural integrity of t he struct ure.

The proponent for this Development Variance Permit - 125 Kensington Crescent should be
commended for submitting a proposal which yields a very aest het ically and environmentally
friendly approach not very common in such circumstances.

The proposed structure is and


believe that t his will provide a much improved appearance to surrounding area . Thus I
st rongly recommend that this proposal proceed wit hout any further delay.

Dear Dejan
We have read your very complete and informative proposal for a Development Variance Permit - 125 Kensington
Crescent and was very impressed with the proposed retaining wall. We have lived here since- -
- 125 Kensington Crescent and are quite familiar with the old retai ning wall which failed. We believe the new
proposed retaining wall is a signifi cant improvement in both appearance and function and wi ll add to the beauty and
safety of our neighbourhood.
Thank you for giving us this opportunity to comment.

Hi Dejan.

Thank you for the letter inviting neighbour input regarding the construction of
- retaining wall at the back of their property at 125 Kensington Crescent. North
Vancouver.

The proposed wall design with landscaping will be more effective and aesthetically pleasing than a
lower one. and more aesthetically pleasing than a tiered retaining wall. Even without the
landscaping, the proposed wall would look best.

A lower wall would not be as safe for children. Also. a single wall can be built to match to the height
of the neighbouring property. making it safer as well.

A tiered-style wall will detract from the look of the back of the property, which is clearly visible from
Carnarvon. a main thoroughfare in our neighbourhood. Also, a tiered-style wall would not be in
keeping with the rest of the lane.

Further, I have noticed an increase of older teenagers walking on Carnarvon adjacent to the
- property and through the lane at the back of their home. They are often noisy as they
walk past and may begin to congregate, as others might, should there be a tiered retaining wall on
which to sit. versus one wall as had stood there previously.

Thank you for your consideration and help in keeping our neighbourhood safe. peaceful. and looking
its best.

Dear Mr. Teodorovic,
Thank you for providing the proposal for a variance penuit for 125 Kensington Crescent. File:
08.3060.20/010.22 Case: PLN2022-00010

Om house address is a c t u a l l y - . However, it is -


- from the house in q u e ~ e on the K e n s i n ~
~ n able to see the old wall and will not be able to see the proposed wall when
constrncted. Obviously we are not impacted negatively. In fact we cam1ot imagine that any
neighbours will be impacted negatively by this new constrnction. The most likely would have
been the neighbours directly across the lane from the new constrnction but they have several
large trees on their property making it in1possible for them to even see across the lane.

While I can tmderstand the District having mies in place in order to tty to cover any sihiation
that might impact sight lines for traffic and views, in this case the proposed variance is in a
back lane with no impact on traffic or views. In fact , it is a nice improvement from the fonner
wall for those either walking or driving along the lane. Therefore it has our approval.

Case: PLN2022-00013
File: 08.3060.20/013.22

AUTHOR: Taylor Jenks, Development Planner

SUBJECT: Bylaw 8568 - Rezoning from Public House Commercial (C6) to


Employment Zone - Light Industrial (EZ-LI) at 1970 Spicer Road.

RECOMMENDATION

THAT "District of North Vancouver Rezoning Bylaw 1418 (Bylaw 8568)" is given FIRST
reading;

AND THAT Bylaw 8568 is referred to a Public Hearing.

REASON FOR REPORT

Implementation of the proposal requi res Council's consideration of Bylaw 8568 to


rezone the subject property (Attachment 2).

The Rezoning Bylaw is recommended for introduction and referral to a Public Hearing.

SUMMARY

Scott Lenz of Headwater Management


has applied to rezone the site of the
DOLL.ARTON HWY
previous "Maplewood Pub" at 1970
Spicer Road from existing Public
House Commercial Zone (C6) to
Employment Zone - Light industrial
(EZ-LI). The rezoning would
accommodate the outdoor storage of
company vehicles and equipment
associated with a local construction
business. The proposal involves
demolition of the existing building, and
returning the site to a state that N
supports light industrial activities. 1,,,,..;,.._ ____,.;._ _ _...i..,__ _ _ _ _____,1.

241 Document: 5601197


SUBJECT: Bylaw 8568: Rezoning from Public House Commercial (C6) to Employment Zone-Light
Industrial (EZ-LI) at 1970 Spicer Road.
April 20, 2022 Page 2

BACKGROUND

The subject site was zoned Light


Industrial Zone (13) until 1992 when it
was rezoned to Public House
Commercial Zone (C6) and
redeveloped as the "Maplewood Pub."
The site has been vacant since 2020
when the pub closed and the existing
building has since deteriorated.

Site and Surrounding Area

The development site is approximately


2,229 m 2 (23,993 sq. ft.) in size and is
located in the light industrial area of
Maplewood, south of Dollarton
Highway, between Amherst Avenue
and Riverside Drive. Surrounding land uses are primarily industrial to the north, west
and south, including Emterra Environmental directly to the west. To the east of the site
is Dynamic Equipment Rentals which includes the storage of vehicles and equipment.

EXSITING POLICY

The proposal has been reviewed


against the Official Community Plan
(OCP), the Targeted Official
Community Plan Review Action Plan,
the Maplewood Village Centre and
Innovation District Implementation
Plan & Design Guidelines
(Maplewood Plan), the Maplewood
Employment Lands Strategy, and the
2019-2022 Council Directions.

Official Community Plan


The Official Community Plan (OCP)
designates the site as "Light
Industrial Commercial" (UC) - as N
indicated in the map - and intended
predominantly for a mix of industrial, warehouse, office, service, utility and business
park-type uses. This OCP designation is consistent with sites to the north, east and
west, while sites to the south are designated "Industrial" (IND) and intended for heavy
industrial uses.

Document: 56011 97
SUBJECT: Bylaw 8568: Rezoning from Public House Commercial (C6) to Employment Zone-Light
Industrial (EZ-LI) at 1970 Spicer Road.
April 20, 2022 Page 3

The proposal has been reviewed against the OCP and is consistent with the following
policies:

Policy 3.3: Enabling a Diverse Range of Economic Uses within Employment Lands
Policy 3.3.2: Preserve industrial designated lands for industrial uses and uses that are
accessory or supportive of industrial activities
Policy 3.3.3: Facilitate an appropriate mix of light industrial and non-retail commercial
uses in Light Industrial Commercial designated lands

Targeted Official Community Plan Review Action Plan 2021-2030

The project has been reviewed against the Targeted Official Community Plan Review
Action Plan (Action Plan) and addresses the following "Priority Actions":

Priority Action# 1 -Achieve Town and Village Centres that deliver low-carbon,
compact, and diverse housing, transportation choices, and supportive public amenities
and employment space

The proposal responds to the above-noted Priority Action by maintaining the


employment function of the site, and helping to preserve the industrial base that serves
the business and residential community on the North Shore.

Maplewood Village Centre and Innovation District Implementation Plan & Design
Guidelines (Maplewood Plan)

The project has been reviewed against the Maplewood Plan and achieves plan
objectives by contributing to the intensification of industrial uses in Maplewood, and
providing employment opportunities accessible to those in the Maplewood Village
Centre.

Council Directions 2019-2022

The project has been reviewed against Council's Strategic Directions.

Key Issue - Economy: Retaining and growing the full spectrum of businesses within
the District, while building towards a complete community of jobs and housings, will be
our measures of success.

As intended with the addition of the Employment Zones to the Zoning Bylaw in 2010,
the proposal would serve to accommodate the evolution of an existing North Shore
business and help to preserve one of the District's key employment areas.

243
Docum ent: 5601197
SUBJECT: Bylaw 8568: Rezoning from Public House Commercial (C6} to Employment Zone-Light
Industrial (EZ-LI) at 1970 Spicer Road.
April 20, 2022 Page 4

Zoning

The subject property is currently zoned Public House Commercial (C6), which is
intended to provide for the consumption of alcoholic beverages as a principle use. The
C6 zone does not permit the light industrial service use as proposed.

In order to accommodate the


intended use, Bylaw 8568 proposes
to rezone the property to
Employment Zone Light Industrial
(EZ-LI) to match most of the
surrounding properties. The EZ-LI
zone would allow for an increase in
the maximum building coverage from
50% to 90% and would increase the
maximum permitted site coverage
from 85% to 100%. These changes
would allow for the intensification of
industrial uses on the lot, as
envisioned in the OCP and
associated policies, and would allow N
flexibility to reflect the changing
nature of light industrial uses.

The EZ-LI zone regulates other factors such as maximum height, minimum building
setbacks, and minimum parking requirements. While no new building is proposed on the
site with this application, these requirements would apply to any future construction.

The Zoning Bylaw requires that EZ-LI properties within 50 m of residential-zoned


properties, comply with the Good Neighbour Policy regarding noise, lighting and air
quality. As this site lies outside of the 50 m radius from residential properties, and is
surrounded by industrial properties, no conflicts with neighbouring uses are anticipated .
Activities on site will be subject to the District's Nuisance Abatement Bylaw and Noise
Regulation Bylaw, as well as air quality measures administered by Metro Vancouver.

The site is subject to a "siting area map" in the Zoning Bylaw. The siting area map
regulates the placement of structures on the site and as the proposed E-LI zoning would
regulate the siting of structures, the existing siting area map is proposed to be deleted .

PROPOSAL

A proposed site plan has been submitted with the rezoning application, which delineates
three primary areas for the storage of vehicles and equipment as shown on the image
on the next page. The storage areas are located around the exterior of the site which
will ensure sufficient space is available for the movement of vehicles through the site.

SUBJECT: Bylaw 8568: Rezoning from Public House Commercial (C6) to Employment Zone-Light
Industrial (EZ-LI) at 1970 Spicer Road.
April 20, 2022 Page 5

Two driveway accesses are proposed from Spicer Road using existing let-downs, which
will help to ensure safe vehicle movement and visibility when entering and exiting the
site. The proposal includes the demolition of the existing building, and resurfacing of the
site in a dust-free surface as required by the Zoning Bylaw. Existing hedging along the
north property line as well as the tree in the southwest corner of the site are proposed to
be retained which will assist in reducing impacts on neighbouring industrial properties.
No new building construction is proposed at this time.

Development Permits

The site is designated within the following Development Permit Areas (DPAs):

• Form and Character of Commercial, Industrial and Multi-family Development;


• Energy and Water Conservation and Green House Gas Emission Reduction; and
• Protection of Development from Hazardous Conditions - Creek Hazard.

245
Document: 5601197
SUBJECT: Bylaw 8568: Rezoning from Public House Commercial (C6) to Employment Zone-Light
Industrial (EZ-LI) at 1970 Spicer Road.
April 20, 2022 Page 6

The application is exempt from the requirement to obtain a Development Permit for
Form and Character, as well as Energy and Water Conservation and Green House Gas
Emission Reduction, as the proposal does not involve the construction or installation of
any new building or structure. Any future proposals which include buildings or structures
would be required to obtain these development permits and would be subject to review
against the applicable guidelines in Schedule B of the OCP.

The site is identified as a potential flood hazard area in the Protection of Development
from Hazardous Conditions - Creek Hazard DPA. The application is exempt from the
requirement to obtain a Development Permit for Protection of Development from
Hazardous Conditions - Creek Hazard, as there is no expansion of the building footprint
and does not include the construction of habitable space. Any future proposal involving
building or structures may require a Development Permit and would be subject to review
against a Flood Hazard report prepared by a qualified professional.

Parking

The applicant is proposing to rezone the site to EZ-LI, with the intent to use the property
for parking of vehicles associated with their business. As the proposal does not include
the construction of new floor area, the Zoning Bylaw does not require additional parking
on-site.

Development Cost Charges

The payment of Development Cost Charges (DCCs) will not be required with this
proposal as no additional Gross Floor Area is proposed.

Concurrence

The project has been reviewed by staff from the Building, Engineering, Community
Planning, Environment, Transportation, Construction Traffic Management, Property
Use, Legal, and Fire Departments.

District of North Vancouver Rezoning Bylaw 8568 affects land lying within 800 m of a
controlled access intersection and therefore approval by the Provincial Ministry of
Transportation and Infrastructure will be required following third reading of the bylaw
and prior to bylaw adoption.

Construction Traffic Management Plan

In order to reduce development's impact on pedestrian and vehicular movements, the


applicant is required to provide a Construction Traffic Management Plan (CTMP) with
submission of a Highway Use Permit application.

The CTMP must outline how the applicant will work to minimize construction impacts on
pedestrian and vehicle movement along Spicer Road and Amherst Avenue. The plan is

SUBJECT: Bylaw 8568: Rezoning from Public House Commercial (C6) to Employment Zone-Light
Industrial (EZ-LI) at 1970 Spicer Road.
April 20, 2022 Page 7

required to be approved by the District prior to issuance of the required demolition


permit.

PUBLIC INPUT

In accordance with the District's policy on Non-Statutory Public Consultation for


Development Projects, a letter was sent to approximately 84 addresses in an area
exceeding 100 m of the site, and a bi-directional sign was placed on the property to
notify passersby of the proposal and provide an opportunity for input.

One comment has been received expressing opposition to the rezoning due to impacts
associated with light industrial uses such as noise, heavy vehicle traffic, and dust, as
well as perceived security risks arising from visitors to the site.

Redacted public input is attached as Attachment 3.

CONCLUSION

The proposal assists in preserving the existing employment lands in one of the District's
key industrial hubs, and in providing for the intensification of industrial uses.

The rezoning proposal is now ready for Council's consideration.

OPTIONS

The following options are available for Council's consideration:

1. Introduce Bylaw 8568, and refer to a Public Hearing (staff recommendation);

2. Refer the project back to staff for further consideration; or

3. Defeat the bylaw at First Reading.

Respectfully submitted,

Dear Sir ....

RE CASE: PLN2022-00013 / application for rezoning 1970 Spice Road

We are opposed to the proposed rezoning of the property at 1970 Spicer Road

We are not In favour of this rezoning for the stated purpose by Headwater Management
proceeding further.

Our concerns and objections are as follows:

1. ■ property contains Thomas FX Group Inc and Thomas Film Studios. A rezoning that would
allow heavy diesel trucks immediately behind■ film studio would be extremely harmful for
film studio operation and would negatively impact ■ clients, inhibiting the filming and
recording of sound in ■ studio.

2. Increased heavy truck and personnel traffic on this lot will increase the possibility of crime and
persons attempting to break into t h e - building ....

are very concerned about an increased crime risk if the property were to be rezoned.

3. We are very concerned about the amount of dust and debris that movement of a multitude of
heavy trucks would generate, undoubtedly to the detriment of the health and safety of our
employees, and the overall appearance of our property.

4. With a significant amount of heavy vehicular traffic activity on the site, there is no doubt that
our building will be damaged by one or more of these trucks at various times, detracting from
the value of our property and generating additional repair costs for our
business that would be recurring and inhibit our profitability.

We pay an outrageous amount of property tax. I submit that it would not be ethically correct for the
District of North Vancouver, who benefits from the collection of these ever-escalating property

255
taxes, to allow an adjacent land use that would have such a negative effect on our commercial
property and the profitability of our long standing business,

BACKGROUND

The development proposal for 2050 Marine Drive was presented to Council at an Early
Input Opportunity on November 23, 2020. At the meeting, Council commented on a
variety of issues including affordability, traffic impacts, and demands on local
infrastructure. A motion was passed that Council was not supportive of the rezoning
application as proposed, and that the applicant revise their proposal.

In response, the applicant revised their proposal to reduce the tower height, increase
the number of non-market rental units, increase the number of market rental units, and
include a cafe and other opportunities for social integration. This revised application was
considered by Council on July 19, 2021, and Council directed staff to prepare the
necessary bylaws for consideration.

SUMMARY

Marvel Developments (Lions Gate


Village) Ltd. has applied on behalf of the
owners of 2050 - 2070 Marine Drive and
an unaddressed lot to redevelop the
existing commercial and hotel buildings
to create a mixed-use development with
53 m 2 (574 sq. ft.) of commercial space
and a total of 330 residential units:

• 212 market strata units (of which


8 are rent to own),
• 77 market rental units, and
• 41 non-market rental units.

EXISTING POLICY

Official Community Plan

The Official Community Plan (OCP) 1823


designates the site as "Commercial
Residential Mixed-Use Level 2" (CRMU2)
which envisions medium density commercial
and residential mixed-use development at a CRMU2
density of up to approximately 2.5 floor space
ratio (FSR).
E

At approximately 2. 75 FSR, the proposal


slightly exceeds the density of the OCP
designation by 0.25 FSR. Section 2.5 of the
OCP states that the FSR associated with the
OCP designations provides guidance
regarding the general massing and
approximate density of a development.
Council can consider, with a public hearing,
density over and above that indicated in the
OCP designation on a case-by-case basis
where the proposed development is otherwise
consistent with the objectives and policies of
the OCP. In this case, the proposed 0.25 FSR
above that permitted in the OCP designation represents a modest increase beyond the
maximum, reflects the floor area of the proposed non-market rental units, and is
therefore supportable.

The proposal is consistent with the following policies of the District's OCP:

• Policy 5.2.4 "Encourage pedestrian-friendly features, public realm improvements,


and accessibility for people of all abilities in the design of major developments"
• Policy 7.2.3 "Encourage the retention of existing and the development of new,
rental units through development, zoning, and other incentives"
• Policy 7.3.1 "Reflect District housing priorities through an appropriate mix, type
and size of affordable housing"
• Policy 7.3.3 "Apply incentives (including, but not limited to density bonussing,
pre-zoning and reduced parking requirements) as appropriate, to encourage the
development of affordable housing"

Targeted Official Community Plan Review Action Plan 2021-2030

The project has been reviewed against the Targeted Official Community Plan Review
Action Plan (Action Plan) and addresses the following "Priority Actions":

Priority Action #1: Achieve Town and Village Centres that deliver low-carbon,
compact, and diverse housing, transportation choices, and supportive public amenities
and employment space.

The project contributes to this action by providing a range of housing options within
the heart of the Lions Gate Village Centre. It also delivers key public amenities
such as a new road, a new neighbourhood park, and new pedestrian connections

Priority Action #2: Advocate for infrastructure and service improvements, such as
Rapid Transit, to get our key transportation networks moving better

The project includes offsite improvements that improve the movement of


pedestrians, cyclists, transit, and vehicles along this portion of Marine Drive.

Priority Action #3: Prioritize rental, social, and supportive housing projects to increase
the range of housing options.

The project proposes that 36% (118 units) of the residential units are rental in
tenure (13% as non-market rental units and 23% as market rental units).

Priority Action #5: Increase housing diversity to support a range of incomes,


household types, and accessibility needs within and close to Town and Village Centres.

The project is located in Lions Gate Village Centre and includes a range of
residential units, strata apartments, non-market rental apartments, and market
rental apartments. All of these units meet either "Basic" or "Enhanced" levels of
accessibility.

Priority Action #6: Create a continuous and connected network of walking and cycling
routes to encourage more people of all ages and abilities to walk and cycle

The project is providing a new road through the development along with pedestrian
and cycling connections in all directions.

Priority Action #8: Reduce greenhouse gas emissions from buildings, transportation,
and waste to address the climate emergency

The 4-storey non-market rental building is proposed to achieve "Passive House"


certification while the remaining residential component of the development will be
built to "Step 3" of the BC Energy Step Code with a low-carbon energy system.
The commercial component will be built to "Step 1" of the Step Code.

Lower Capilano (Lions Gate) Marine Village Centre Implementation Plan and
Lions Gate Public Realm and Design Guidelines

The project has been reviewed against the Lower Capilano (Lions Gate) Marine Village
Centre Implementation Plan (Implementation Plan) and the Lions Gate Public Realm
and Design Guidelines. The project achieves the public realm objectives and provides a
dedicated road, which will connect to Glenaire Drive, Curling Road, and a yet-to-be-
named new road . This new road will be an important connecting feature within the Lions
Gate Village Centre. This proposal also delivers the Curling Road Park planned south of
Curling Road.

The proposal is being considered in the context of the approved Lions Gate Plan which
identifies a mix of building heights of up to 20 storeys for this site. The proposal includes
a mix of building heights at 4, 9, and 27 storeys. While the proposed tower as proposed
at 27-stroreys is higher than anticipated in the Implementation Plan, staff are supportive
of the height given the significant amount of land dedications (44% of gross area), the
neighbouring buildings which range in height from 23 to 26 storeys, and achieving the
District's urban design goals while completing the important Curling Road Park and road
network.

District of North Vancouver Transportation Plan

Building 8: Non-Market Rental Building - East Elevation

Market Rental Units

The 77 market rental units locate in "Building A" are comprised of 7 studios, 35 one-
bedroom units, and 35 two-bedroom units.

Workforce Housing

The proposal presented to Council at Early Input on November 23, 2020 included 11
Workforce Housing units. The applicant has removed these units due to legal limitations
but will continue to work with staff to explore mechanisms for implementing this
component of the project. For now, these are standard strata units.

Rent to Own Units

It is proposed that 8 strata units (4 one-bedroom and 4 two-bedroom) be sold through a


"rent-to-own" program with the units geared toward first-time home buyers. The future
purchasers would be required to live in the unit for two-years, paying market rents to the
developer as well as strata fees. At the end of the two-year period, the developer would
return 100% of the rent collected to each purchaser for use as a down payment to
purchase the unit they were occupying. This arrangement will be secured by a section
219 covenant.

Locals-First Units

The applicant is voluntarily proposing a locals-first program. Under this program, it is


proposed that a minimum of 48 strata units (20 one-bedroom, 20 two-bedroom, and 8
three-bedroom) are marketed to "locals-first". Prior to offering the units on the open
market, the developer will offer the 48 units at a 5% discount below the standard list
prices. The units will be available at this discount only to residents of the District of
North Vancouver and City of North Vancouver and for a period of 60 days, following
which the units will be offered on the open market.

Vehicle parking is proposed in a three-level underground garage for the south parcel,
and a two-level underground garage for the north parcel. Both underground garages are
accessed from the new Lions Gate Crescent.

Part 10 of the Zoning Bylaw requires a total of 610 parking stalls for residential and
commercial uses (including visitor stalls). This proposal has undertaken a parking needs
assessment in conjunction with the District's "Alternative Vehicle Parking Rates Policy"
and is proposing a total of 373 parking stalls.

The District's "Alternative Vehicle Parking Rates" Policy was approved in November
2020 and includes base parking rates based on unit mix with opportunities for parking
reductions based on location if the proposal includes Transportation Demand
Management (TOM) features. The proposed 373 parking stalls complies with this policy.

transit as ways to encourage alternate modes of transportation and to increase housing


affordability. The applicant has submitted a Transportation Impact Assessment
prepared by IBI Group that supports the proposed parking rate.

The proposed TOM features include proximity to frequent (rapid bus) transit, shared
parking with commercial and residential visitor, and unbundled parking.

The applicant has proposed to provide energized outlets capable of supporting "Level 2"
charging for all of the residential parking spaces.

Proposed universal parking for the residential and commercial project components will
comply with the District's Accessible Design Policy for Multi-Family Housing and the
Zoning Bylaw. A total of 16 universal parking spaces are proposed.

Staff are supportive of the proposed parking as the site is well-served by frequent transit
along both Marine Drive and Capilano Road , is located in the heart of the Lions Gate
Village Centre, and the overall plan for the Lions Gate Village Centre includes
numerous long-term transportation improvements for pedestrians and cyclists.

Bicycle Parking

The District's "Bicycle Parking and End-of-Trip Facilities Policy" includes the following
rates for bicycle parking:

• A minimum of 1.5 spaces for a studio or one-bedroom unit;


• A minimum of 2 spaces for a two or more bedroom unit; and
• A minimum of 1 space for each 250 square metres of gross floor area.

The applicant is proposing to provide bicycle parking at a rate of approximately 1.81


long-term secure bicycle storage spaces per residential dwelling unit and 0.11 "Class 2"
short-term bicycle storage spaces per residential dwelling unit for a total of 634 bicycle
parking spaces. The proposed bicycle parking rate is compliant with the bicycle policy

Off-site improvements

The application includes improved street frontages with street tree plantings and
streetlight upgrades, pedestrian lighting, curb, gutter, and paving improvements, along
the existing and proposed roadways adjacent to or within the development.

The proposal includes dedications of approximately 44% of the site for public
infrastructure. These significant dedications deliver the following:

• A 4.1 m (13.5 ft.) wide highway dedication along Marine Drive to accommodate
improved transit and pedestrian infrastructure,

• A 16 m (52.5 ft.) wide highway dedication through the site for the construction of
a new public road (Lions Gate Crescent),

• A 3.46 m to 5 m (11.4 ft. to 16.4 ft.) wide highway dedication along Curling Road
for improved sidewalks, and

• A 7.5 m (24.6 ft.) wide highway dedication along a portion of the eastern property
line which will provide improved road access for the easterly neighbour.

In addition, the design includes a new neighbourhood park (see image on Page 13) on
land that is proposed to be transferred to the District. Detailed design of the
neighbourhood park will be finalized through the Parks Department, with public input.

Implementation

Implementation of this project will require a rezoning, and housing agreements, as well
as issuance of a development permit and registration of legal agreements.

Bylaw 8573 (Attachment 2) rezones the subject properties from C4 and C9 to a new
Comprehensive Development Zone 142 (CD142) which:

• establishes the permitted residential and commercial uses;


• allows home occupations as an accessory use;
• establishes the maximum permitted floor area on the site;
• establishes setback and building height regulations; and
• establishes parking regulations specific to this project.

Bylaw 8576 and 8577, (Attachment 5 and 6) authorizes the District to enter into a
Housing Agreement to ensure that there will be no future restrictions on renting the
strata units.

A legal framework will be required to support the project and it is anticipated that a
development covenant will be used to secure items such as the details of off-site
servicing and airspace parcel subdivision requirements. Additional legal documents
required for the project will include but are not limited to:

• subdivision plan showing road dedications and park areas;


• statutory rights of ways related to municipal services;
• statutory right of way to secure public access to on-site plaza and courtyard
areas;
• development covenant to reference the general form and layout of project and to
secure "Passive House" requirement of the 4-storey rental building,
covenanUright of ways, allocation of development rights , onsite amenities,
adaptable design features, unit mix, construction traffic management plan ,
transportation demand management measures, electric vehicle charging
infrastructure, bicyle facility requirements, storage facilities requirements,
universal parking requirements, and recycling and waste management facilities;
• stormwater management covenant;
• covenant to specify that any "unsold" parking spaces be transferred to strata
corporation; and
• other documentation as required by the municipal solicitor.

• 35 affordable rental apartments in a four-storey building
• Two floors of underground parking and a new public park are proposed.
To support public engagement in the meeting a sign language interpreter was provided and
presentation boards handouts were translated into Farsi.
Key Themes
Twenty (20) comment forms were received at the meeting, of which fourteen (14) individuals
expressed support for the proposal and six (6) did not indicate support but provided comments.
There was no (0) individuals that indicated they were opposed to the development.
The key themes heard in the facilitated Q&A were also reflected in the comment sheets. Some
individuals mentioned more than one theme in their comments.

• Twelve (12) comment forms focused on mixed housing and affordability issues including
consideration of more market rental and senior housing
• Seven (7) comment forms focused on traffic issues in the area including some comments
related to bus movements that impact traffic congestion
• Two (2) comment forms about parking in the local area including suggestions for
changing parking orientation on Curling Road
• Two (2) comments forms focused on the Marine Drive interface with development
including sidewalks and open space improvements.

PUBLIC COMMENT: Q & A (Index: Q: Questions C: Comment A: Answers)


Ql I am confused because on the map I see Marine Drive at the bottom and Curling Road and
Lions Gate Crescent in between. Isn't Lions Gate Crescent the new road that is extending
into Hope and is there going to be a traffic light there? What about the buses that were
expected to be coming in there?
Al (Tamsin Guppy) The Lions Gate Village Centre Plan was done in conjunction with the
neighbourhood back in 2013 and it tries to show how the core area in Lions Gate will
build out as individual applications come in. Town Centre plans are just a vision for how
that redevelopment might work. As you get the different parts of the jigsaw, they actually
tie in together. The site we are talking about today includes the Travel Lodge Hotel, the
Denny's restaurant, the Pho restaurant and the Earls parking lot. The actual Earls
restaurant is in the West Vancouver municipality and is being developed by somebody
else. Any buildings that are on Marine Drive frontage can't have their lobby entrances
there because of the HOV lane and the fact you can't stop in a bus lane. We then needed
to think of another way of providing access to those buildings and that is why you have an
internal road. It also means you can have a very pedestrian friendly street. This site is

366
Marvel Group: Travelodge Public Information Meeting Summary
May 23, 2018

between Marine Drive and Curling Road and it has a road that connects to Glenaire and
also connects to a new road that is currently a service road being used for truck deliveries.
Curling will ultimately connect onto McGuire but that will only happen if and when the
Comfort Inn and Best Western choose to redevelop.
Q2 Are they going to provide some stops or depots for the buses? I would like to understand
how that works.
A2 (Tamsin Guppy) There is an existing bus stop on the south side of the Grouse Inn and
Grouse Inn's application includes a widening of this bus stop and the development of a
new public plaza . That application has been approved and they are going through the
building permit process right now. They will probably start construction later this year or
early next year. The application we are discussing tonight is right next door so we didn't
need or ask for another bus stop. We will be getting better pedestrian connections.
People coming from Woodcraft will be able to come straight down Glenaire and down a
public path. For those, in the future that will be living in the Belle Isle developments or in
the Larco project there will be a greenway trail that comes down. We are working on the
landscape plan so that there will be a nice connection through the park and down the
eastern side to bring you to Marine Drive as quickly as possible.
C3 I am concerned about the parking and traffic. If you have extra lanes as a perimeter to
the development you have open space that could be used for vertical parking. All the
parking on top is parallel. If you turn them 90 degrees and add another lane for backing
up into the lane before Curling Road you could go from 12-15 feet of parking to 35 feet of
parking. It is still open space but it would be double the parking. You should also think
about the future and the possibility of wanting to widen that road. If you make that extra
lane right now with vertical parking that would become possible. If you get future
developers to do this as well maybe eventually an additional lane could be added to
Marine Drive. The traffic is already bad and it is just going to get worse when the village
project is completed.
A3 It comes down to extra street parking. Currently there is street parking along Curling Road
and along the Crescent. Parking was placed according to city plans so we have been
forced to place them where they decided they were to be. We agree there are other
opportunities to increase the street parking but it comes down to the District approved
parking locations.
Q4 Will you provide housing for people with disabilities and those who are homeless? I see
you will offer 35 discounted units but what does that mean? Is that intended for those
people or other kinds of people?
A4 The discounted or subsidized rental is proposed to be provided at CMHC Level 2. That is a
35% discount from average rents for any given unit. This is based on average rents for
purpose built rental.
The District has a policy for enhanced accessibility requirements and adaptable unit
requirements. The project will meet all of those requirements.

367
Marvel Group: Travelodge Public Information Meeting Summary
May 23, 2018

CS I am happy to see that there is more densification and more multi-family densification
happening on the North Shore. It gives some of us that grew up on the North Shore a
chance to move back. Yes, densification brings more traffic issues but hopefully we will
have some good resolutions for that. Overall, I am happy and impressed to see some
diversity in housing stock because that has always been lacking on the North Shore.
C6 I want to applaud the District for working with the proponent to ensure that purpose built
rental is included in this project and the fact that this is affordable purpose built rental.
On the North Shore we have a nearly zero vacancy rate and this is persistently continuing.
We need to build more propose built rental here on the North Shore and in the District.
The reality is that we need to get away from cars and the future is less cars and not more
of them. Because of this, I wouldn't get too hung up on the parking.
C7 I take the bus and the bus trip from that bus stop to downtown takes about 20 minutes.
QB I know densification is happening all over the world but my concern at the moment is the
fact that you are increasing densification by stealth and we are now going up to 29
stories. Can you please tell me where I can see a 29 storey apartment building in North
Van district at this time?
A8 Seylynn by Second Narrows Bridge has several towers between 24 and 32 stories. In
terms of density, this project isn't any denser than it was when it was shorter. We just
squeezed it because we have a bigger park and more roads and now an affordable
housing building. The market condo part remains at the same square footage it is just in a
different shape.
Q9 When I phoned the District, the person on the front counter was not aware of any 29
stories or higher buildings so you might want to make sure that your people at the District
know. My concern is that we will have a forest of towers. The woman at City Hall was
very helpful in explaining density to me. We hear at these meetings that there is going to
be lots of parks for children but where are these children going to go to school?
A9 (Tamsin Guppy) This area is within the Capilano and Norgate Elementary School
catchments and both schools have space in them. At the current time Capilano
elementary also has the IB program in it to keep the number of students up to be able to
keep the doors open. Schools are funded by the number of students not by the school
itself and that is why some schools were closed in the past.
ClO It is my understanding that Capilano Elementary is full but that there are spaces at
Norgate. I would think the majority of children would have to go to Norgate.
Cll We live in the Woodcraft building and I had a problem finding a school near this area so it
is a huge problem for parents. Lions Gate Bridge is already so busy and I don't understand
how the District can approve having more tall buildings, I just feel it is going to be a
disaster. If Lions Gate Bridge was bigger there would be no problem but three lanes and
so many people traveling to downtown is going to be a huge problem.

368
Marvel Group: Travelodge Public Information Meeting Summary
May 23, 2018

C12 I think this is a huge opportunity for millennials and people who are looking to be part of
community and invest in the community where they can give into the community. If you
look between the borders there is not really anything that we feel we could be a part of. I
think this is an addition to the community and it is just going to bring benefit to the
community.
C13 There is a valid concern about traffic and public transportation. I think there is lack of
communication between the City and the residents of the Lower Mainland in general and
the municipalities all together. We can't just increase the traffic to a point where people
are forced to get rid of their cars and use public transportation. I know it is extremely
hard to get funding for public transport but we are not creative at all. There are all kinds
of things that could be done with Lions Gate Bridge, there could also be more Sea Buses.
It seems tax payers don't want to pay more for public transport because they don't
understand why they have to. There seems to be a lack information and communication.
A13 Translink is currently planning the B Line along Marine Drive and is due to open
September 2019. The B Line goes across the North Shore and you would have to transfer
to go downtown. There is also a plan to increase the Sea Buses.
C14 The transportation plan is to have Curling cross over to McGuire where there will be lights
on Marine Drive to bypass Capilano and Marine. The problem is the motels withdrew
their applications so there is no Curling crossing Capilano at this time. The timing for this
project is wrong. You are going to put these towers in with nowhere to go. You won't get
out of Curling because Curling will not cross until the hotels put their applications in.
A14 (Tamsin Guppy) As a municipality, one of the things we are obligated to consider is how
we house our own residents. We have many wonderful single-family homes but they are
expensive and not always great for seniors. We need to look at what our housing options
are and that includes more apartments to compliment the single-family homes. We could
put those anywhere but we tried to focus on town centres where there are services and
buses so that some of those people wouldn't have to buy a second car and could
sometimes possibly catch the bus. Right now, the adjacent bus stop has a bus every two
minutes during rush hour which is better than anywhere else on the North Shore. That is
why we focus development in places like this. The long-term vision is that we provide
other ways out. Glenaire is already open so you can drive up to Fullerton and across. We
are currently working with the owner of the other property, with the hopes of opening up
a piece to create this link in the shorter term. We are still trying to play through when this
could happen. This application being discussed today is still at its early stages and hasn't
even started the Council process. We are at least four or five years out so we do have
some time to achieve some other linkages.
C15 You didn't let the people know where the buses will ultimately be going on McGuire.
Currently buses coming off the Lions Gate Bridge go up Capilano Road and the ones
coming down go down Garden. They are all to go on McGuire once the hotels put in their
applications.

369
Marvel Group: Travelodge Public Information Meeting Summary
May 23, 2018

AlS (Tamsin Guppy) In the implementation plan, that is what we explored with Translink. We
are currently having more workshops with Translink to see if we might be able to have
the buses on Capilano Road. In the short term, we can still continue to use Garden
Avenue.
C16 In the OCP, the tower was supposed to be tapering down so it was supposed to be 19
stories not 29. The public was presented with an OCP that they approved in 2011 at 19
stories. I still think it needs to be lowered.
Q17 I didn't get an answer to my question and am still wondering why we can't have a setback
along Marine Drive for all new development? It would leave 20 feet for a bus stop. It is
for public transportation not parking. Then when the bus stops the traffic can flow by.
A17 (Tamsin Guppy) The developer is prepared to give up land for roads and road
improvements. You are right that we need more land to make our roads work better. We
ask developers when they go through rezoning to give up land for that purpose. 29% of
this site is already being proposed for roads.
C18 They are giving more land to the north side and they want to make it green. Why don't
they give it to Marine Drive so when the bus parks, traffic can flow on the bridge?
A18 (Tamsin Guppy) We have people that want to ride safely on Curling so we want enough
land that we can have a shared bike lane on Curling Road. We agree that better traffic
flow is needed and are working hard on a variety of measures to make that happen over
time.
Q19 Will you make crossing at Capilano and Marine safer for pedestrians? Maybe with a ramp
or overpass?
A19 (Tamsin Guppy) The implementation plan of 2013 was a best guess but as each
application comes in, we work harder to improve. We listen to comments and try to
adjust. What we have now for the Grouse Inn is land dedication that they have given up
to get a whole extra lane. We have tried to address the design of this crossing and there
is a ramp to get across and it will be a fully accessible intersection. Every new intersection
we do will have ramps down. We are also looking at tactile strips for those people with
visual disabilities. We work with organizations like the Rick Hansen Foundation to try to
improve our public realm and make our communities as inclusive as possible. We find
that people feel safer with wider and safer sidewalks with shops' looking onto them
instead of using a pedestrian overpass that is closed in, especially at night.
(Traffic Engineer) Another option is to increase the traffic light times for pedestrians to
cross as well.
C20 We have serious problems right now with traffic jams on Capilano and Marine Drive. To
me, a simple solution would be to allow cars coming south on Capilano to turn first and
then allow the green lights to turn from north going south, that way they wouldn't create
a traffic jam. That is the problem now and then when you start to use Curling for moving
all the development vehicles and work, it is going to be a huge problem. There is not
adequate space for the vehicles, you need an extra lane which you don't have.

370
Marvel Group: Travelodge Public Information Meeting Summary
May 23, 2018

A20 I believe the District is planning on having a south bound left turn lane in the future that
would allow better operation of the signal. The signal timings can be tweaked to improve
the operation.
C21 That is something that should be done right now.
C22 The concept of overhead walkways were in the first iteration that came out for the
Village. The District removed the overhead walkways because they didn't want to pay for
them. Everything here is being paid for by the developers and the District didn't want to
put in any more money and put in the walkways.
C23 Every time I come to these meetings I hear you talk about shops at street level. I have
been very disappointed with the development of the shops along Marine Drive. There
are essentially no shops along Marine Drive. If we are talking about the future, many
people are already using online shopping so we won't be using shops. There will be no
need and there will be no lights of shops shining on Capilano Road as there aren't already
on Marine Drive. It is a dead area and you aren't going to be able to generate stores, they
are going to disappear. I think it might be good if by the time we get to the next iteration
you can think of a different way of describing what is going to happen here.
Q24 Have you thought about helping the NDP with the process of lowering the price of
housing for first time buyers? Have you thought about doing anything besides the 35%
rental? That is much lower than what I had in mind. I thought they were going to build up
a huge complex of rental apartments in this area. If you are going to do this, maybe 50-
60% of them should have to be rental to help with the housing problem.
A24 In terms of the market units, we don't' know what price we will be offering them at. We
don't know what programs we are going to offer. We have at least 18 months of a City
process to go through so it is far too early to decide on that. With regards to the rental,
the buildings that are under construction right now, the Larco buildings, they are 100%
rental.
C25 I am interested in hearing about any plans moving forward that the City may have in
regards to helping first time home buyers
