Document: 257790 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 14 Attachment 3.3

Model Municipal Declaration The Right To A Healthy Environment

Whereas the MUNICIPALITY understands that people are part of the environment, and that a healthy environment is inextricably linked to the well-being of our community;

The MUNICIPALITY finds and declares that:

1. All people have the right to live in a healthy environment, including:

The right to breathe clean air

The right to drink clean water

The right to consume safe food

The right to access nature

The right to know about pollutants and contaminants released into the local environment

The right to participate in decision-making that will affect the environment

2. The MUNICIPALITY has the responsibility, within its jurisdiction, to respect, protect, fulfill and promote these rights.

3. The MUNICIPALITY shall apply the precautionary principle: where threats of serious or irreversible damage to human health or the environment exist, the MUNICIPALITY shall take cost effective measures to prevent the degradation of the environment and protect the health of its citizens. Lack of full scientific certainty shall not be viewed as sufficient reason for the MUNICIPALITY to postpone such measures

4. The MUNICIPALITY shall apply full cost accounting: when evaluating reasonably foreseeable costs of proposed actions and alternatives, the MUNICIPALITY will consider costs to human health and the environment.

5. By Dec 31st 2015, the MUNICIPALITY shall specify objectives, targets and timelines and actions the MUNICIPALITY will take, within its jurisdiction, to fulfill residents' right to a healthy environment, including priority actions to: a. Ensure equitable distribution of environmental benefits and burdens within the municipality, preventing the development of pollution "hot spots"; b. Ensure infrastructure and development projects protect the environment, including air quality; c. Address climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and implementing adaptation measures; d. Responsibly increase density; e. Prioritize walking, cycling and public transit as preferred modes of transportation; RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 15 Attachment 3.3

f. Ensure adequate infrastructure for the provision of safe and accessible drinking water; g. Promote the availability of safe foods; h. Reduce solid waste and promote recycling and composting; i. Establish and maintain accessible green spaces in all residential neighbourhoods.

The MUNICIPALITY shall review the objectives, targets, timelines and actions every five (5) years, and evaluate progress towards fulfilling this declaration.

The MUNICIPALITY shall consult with residents as part of this process.

6. AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the [Municipality] forward this resolution to the Lower Mainland Local Government Association, the Union of BC Municipalities, the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and member local governments, requesting favourable consideration by local councils and by delegates at the 2015 annual meetings of these associations. RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 16 Attachment 3.3

David Suzuki Foundation L7f

Subject: The Right to Live in a Healthy Environment

ISSUE: The inextricable link between environmental and human health is now widely recognized. Nine out of 10 Canadians are concerned about the impact of environmental degradation on their health and the health of their children1 - and with good reason. The World Health Organization estimates environmental contamination, including polluted air and water, causes as many as 36,000 premature deaths annually in Canada.2 Preventable environmental hazards contribute up to 1.5 million days in hospital annually due to cardiovascular disease, respiratory illness, cancer, and birth defects alone.3 The environment has a tremendous influence on our health and well-being.4

Municipal governments make decisions that affect transportation, housing density, waste disposal and other issues related to the quality of the environment. Local governments also have the power to pass bylaws to protect residents from environmental harm. A municipal declaration recoRnizine the right to a healthy environment would show support for residents' rights to clean air, water and safe food, signal municipal leadership in building a healthy, sustainable community and draw attention to the Canadian Constitution's silence on environmental issues.

RECOMMENDATIONS: The David Suzuki Foundation and partners recommend that the municipality; 1. Officially recognize the Right to a Healthy Environment, through a municipal declaration or equivalent measure; 2. Respect, protect and fulfill the right to a healthy environment within municipal boundaries; and 3. Encourage provincial and federal action to protect the right to a healthy environment for all Canadians.

BACKGROUND: Over the past 50 years, the right to a healthy environment has gained recognition faster than any other human right. More than 110 governments around the world, including several cities, have already recognized their citizens' right to live in a healthy environment through bylaws, declarations, legislation, charters and constitutional provisions. In the United States, over 150 local governments have passed ordinances that recognize citizens' right to a healthy environment and protect them from a range of harmful practices.5 The rights protected by these legal instruments include breathing clean air, drinking clean water, consuming safe food, accessing nature and knowing about pollutants and contaminants released into the local environment. Evidence shows that most countries with environmental rights and responsibilities in their constitutions:

» Enjoy stronger and better enforced environmental laws; ® Demonstrate enhanced government and corporate accountability; ® Have smaller per capita ecological footprints; ® Rank higher on environmental performance in over a dozen key areas; RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 17 Attachment 3.3

® Are more likely to have ratified international environmental agreements; and ® Have been more successful in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.6

Today, Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms presently does not explicitly protect or even address environmental rights, leaving Canada among a minority of countries that do not yet recognize the right to a healthy environment. Just as the Charter guarantees us freedom of expression and protects us from discrimination, environmental rights would ensure that our laws and policies protect the basic elements of our survival, such as clean air, safe water and unpolluted land. While five provinces and territories have some modest form of environmental rights legislation, even in these jurisdictions (Quebec, Ontario, the Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut) the laws have significant weaknesses that undermine their effectiveness and need to be substantially strengthened. Municipal governments can help move toward developing an overarching environmental legal framework in Canada. Yellowknife became the sixth city in Canada to pass an environmental rights declaration in December 2014, following other municipalities like Montreal and Vancouver.

CONCLUSION: Most of us understand that the environment is a key factor in sustaining healthy communities. Environmental rights support many issues Canadians care about - healthy food, land use and development, water and air quality, climate change, habitat and biodiversity protection, parks creation, children's access to nature, social justice and more. Yet Canada lacks important legal protection for environmental rights. All levels of government must take action to address this oversight. Municipal adoption of a declaration respecting all residents' right to a healthy environment will set an important precedent and can inspire action at other levels of government, ultimately resulting in better environmental performance and a healthier population in Canada.7.

Introduction of Art 1 Verbal Report: Mayor Clay at Council File: 7705-01

Tonight's Art at Council is a historical photo from an unknown photographer which was donated to the Station Museum. Back in the early 1900s Clarke Street was the main street in Port Moody. Main Streets and traditional downtowns are the heart of communities big and small, and embody the history and evolution of a community.

In this photograph, circa 1940, you will see a number of significant buildings from Port Moody's past. The tall white building on the far left is the Burrard Hotel. The hotel was originally known as the Strand Hotel but changed its name in 1924. To its right is the Johnston Brother's General Store, one of three prominent general stores in the early 1900s. As you continue moving to your right, there was the Beehive Cafe and a couple of unknown stores and then Axford's. Axford's was also a general store and in business until 1970. And lastly, on the far right is the Tourist Hotel. It was built in 1907 and closed in 1960. Back in those days the hotel had separate entrances and rooms for men and women, and it also held Port Moody's most popular pub.

2. Public Input Ann Kitching, President of the Port Moody Arts Centre, presented two cheques to the City and thanked the City for its role in expanding the Arts Centre. The first cheque was grant funding received from the Federal Government in support of the Centennial Appleyard House Addition to the Arts Centre; the second cheque was funds raised by the Port Moody Arts Centre Society for alterations to the Centennial Appleyard House to improve versatility of the main studio.

Sandy Burpee, Coquitlam Search and Rescue Society, provided an update on the funding request in item 9.1 of the agenda, noting that after the presentation to Council in December, the Society has raised a total of $350,000, and is now within $50,000 of meeting their fundraising target.

Hazel Mason, President of the Moody Centre Community Association, requested that the Official Community Plan be rescinded in favour of the

City of Port Moody Regular Council Meeting - January 27, 2015 2 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 23 Attachment 4.1 2011 Official Community Plan.

Reiner Specht, Port Moody, noted his objection to placing a five-minute time limit on speakers at Public Hearings as proposed in item 7.2 of the agenda regarding changes to the Council Procedure Bylaw. Mr. Specht noted that he would be in favour of a 10-minute time limit. Mr. Specht also expressed his opposition to the plan to amend the Official Community Plan, and requested that the Official Community Plan be rescinded, and a 60-day extension from Metro Vancouver be requested.

Peter Dasnieres, Port Moody, expressed concern about the need for seismic upgrades to the bridge at the intersection of loco Road and the Barnet Highway, and noted that the sidewalk also requires widening to accommodate pedestrian traffic generated by the Evergreen Line.

City of Port Moody Report/Recommendation to Council

Date: January 26,2015 File No. 09-4300-01

Submitted by: Development Services - Building, Bylaws and Licensing Division

Subject: Moody Ales Brewery Lounge Endorsement

Purpose / Introduction To seek Council direction with respect to an application received by the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch for Moody Ales Brewery's request to amend their licence to include a brewery lounge.

Recommended Resolution THAT staff be directed to advise the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch that the City of Port Moody wishes to opt out of the public consultation process as recommended in the report dated January 26, 2015 from Development Services regarding Moody Ales Brewery's application for Lounge Endorsement.

Background When the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch (LCLB) receives an application for a new liquor primary licence, the LCLB requests comment from the respective municipality.

Discussion Moody Ales Ltd. is a brewery located at Unit B - 2601 Murray Street. Moody Ales has applied to the LCLB for a brewery lounge endorsement (Attachment 1). The LCLB requires a resolution from Council indicating support and providing any comments or recommendations for the application to proceed.

The City's policy for the review of Liquor Primary Applications (Attachment 2) sets out two options for Council:

1. That the City undertake a public consultation process which includes notification to neighbouring properties, newspaper notifications and public meetings. Council would then deliberate and determine if the City was in support of the licence bases on resident response.

2. That the City "opt out" of the process.

Number: 295558 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 34 Attachment 5.2 Report/Recommendation to Council Moody Ales Brewery Lounge Endorsement January 26, 2015

Should the City choose to opt out of the consultation process, the LCLB ensures that the applicant still follows through with the requirements of the public consultation process as set out in Section 10 of the Liquor Control and Licensing Regulations to assess whether the granting of the licence would be contrary to the public interest.

Given that the LCLB has a process to ensure that a suitable and appropriate process will be followed for public consultation, and given that the location of Moody Ales is in a primarily non¬ residential area, staff feel that it is not necessary for the City to undertake the consultation process, and are therefore recommending that the City opt out of the process.

Other Options Council directs staff to proceed with the full public consultation process as set out in the City's policy for Review of Liquor Primary Applications.

Financial Implications There are no anticipated financial implications with respect to the recommendations in this report. Should Council direct staff to proceed with the public consultation process, the applicant would be charged the fee set out in the Fees Bylaw to cover the associated costs.

Communications / Civic Engagement Based on the recommendations stated in this report no communications or civic engagement is required.

Council Strategic Plan Objectives The recommendation outlined in this report is consistent with Council's Strategic Plan which encourages and promotes a strong economic base for the City.

Attachments: 1. Application and letter received from the LCLB 2. Port Moody Corporate Policy for Review Applications for Liquor Primary.

Mr. Kevin Ramsay Chief Administrative Officer City of Port Moody Box 36-100 Newport Drive Port Moody, BC V3H 3E1

Dear Mr, Ramsay:

Re: New Manufacturer - Brewery Lounge Endorsement Applicant: Moody Ales Ltd. - Brewery Licence #306078 Establishment Name: Moody Ales Establishment Address: Unit B - 2601 Murray Street, Port Moody

The above-noted brewery has applied to the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch (the Branch) for a brewery lounge endorsement to be located at the brewery site. The Branch has completed the initial review of the application to determine applicant suitability and eligibility of the establishment type for licensing endorsements.

Having determined applicant eligibility, the application is now proceeding to the Site and Community Assessment approval (SCA) stage which is the stage for Local Government input.

The Council for the City of Port Moody is requested to consider the application and provide a resolution with their comments and recommendation with respect to the licence endorsement application. To assist with Council's assessment of the statutory criteria that must be considered, Branch staff has prepared a summary report for review and consideration by Council. The summary report is based on information provided by the applicant and by Branch staff.

Council has 90 days to either provide comments to the general manager, or to advise that they wish to "opt out" of the process. Additional time over the 90 days can be approved by the Branch if the request is received in writing prior to the end of the 90 day period.

Upon receipt of a Council resolution(s), the. Branch will review the resolution(s) to determine if all regulatory criteria have been met in accordance with section 10 of the Liquor Control and Licensing Regulations and, if recommended by Local Government, assess whether the granting of the licence endorsements would be contrary to the public interest.

Upon decision of the general manager as to whether to grant SCA approval, the applicant and the Local Government will be advised in writing.

Liquor Control and Mailing Address: Location: Licensing Branch PO Box 9292 Stn Prov Govt 4th Floor, 3350 Douglas Street Victoria BC V8W9J8 Victoria, BC Telephone: 250 952-5787 Facsimile: 250 952-7066 http://www.pssg.gov.bc.ca/lclb RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 372 Attachment 5.2

An application granted SCA approval proceeds to the construction/renovation stage of the licence endorsement process, whereby the lounge and/or special event area floor plans are reviewed and if approved in principle, the applicant may proceed with construction/renovation of the approved site. This is followed by the final stages of the licence endorsement process.

Further details of the liquor licensing endorsement application process can be found in the "Role of Local Government and First Nations in the Provincial Liquor Licensing Process" guidelines, available on the Branch website at http://www.pssq.qov.bc.ca/lclb.

If you have any questions regarding this application please contact me at 250 952-5752 or by email at [email protected].

Yours sincerely,

I

Attachment 1 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 41 Attachment 5.2

Letter of Intent

Purpose The purpose of the endorsement is to allow Moody Ales to provide our customers proper 20 ounce pints of the product we manufacture and allow folks who wish to enjoy more than 12 ounces of beer the opportunity to do so. We will also have one television if allowed, this will allow us to show sporting events and craft beer educational videos.

Target Market Our target market is local urban and suburbans in the tri-cities, as well as beer tourists and craft brewery enthusiasts from around the lower mainland.

Neighbourhood Composition Our immediate neighbourhood is industrial and light industrial, we are across from a wood mill, beyond about 400M from us the neighbourhood transitions to commercial space at around 500-600m from us it becomes residential. We have a park about 450M from our location.

Please see a street map attached.

Benefits to the Community In the last six months, two local pubs have closed their doors. Craft Breweries and small pubs are an important part of a growing community. Our lounge is a place for locals to come and meet their neighbours and new faces in the community. The tri-cities residents have a growing desire for craft beer and our lounge will provide them a place to get fresh, local craft beer.

Our endorsement will also bring more beer tourism to the community, this will impact other surrounding service and food based businesses as these tourists will likely also be patrons of some of those businesses.

Impact of Noise Our location is directly in the middle of an industrial area, with no residential space directly near us. Our lounge is located in the front of the building, and our front door faces a large wood mill. There are no residences in our immediate neighbourhood for about 500M. We also have a train corridor right behind our building, between us and the closest residents and

fe? V - RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 42 Attachment 5.2

commercial spaces. The train is considerably louder than we are, as are some of the industrial business surrounding us.

We will not have amplified music that is audible outside, this is a small endorsement and additional traffic will not create noise. We have outdoor lighting and cameras on the exterior of the building and plan on closing earlier than most pubs.

Other Impacts on the Surrounding Community Our craft brewery lounge may be an attraction to folks looking to move and purchase homes and property in the area. Many urban vancouverites are moving out this way and love the idea of having a local craft brewery as they are so used to having access to these in Vancouver.

ATTACHMENT 3

Sample Resolution for a Manufacturer Lounge or Special Event Area Endorsement Application

The following are examples that illustrate the type of comments that local government and First Nations might provide to demonstrate they have taken into consideration each of the criterion in reaching their final recommendation. Comments may be a mix of positive, negative and neutral observations relevant to each criterion. The final recommendation is the result of balancing these 'pros and cons'.

The list is not intended to illustrate every possible comment as the variations are endless, given the wide range of applications and local circumstances.

It is important that the resolution include the comment and not refer to a staff report, as the general manager cannot suppose that the local government considered all the criteria unless comment on each criterion is specifically addressed in the resolution itself. RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 45 Attachment 5.2

Local government or First Nation staff may wish to contact the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch for assistance on drafting the content of a resolution before it is presented to local government or First Nation to avoid resolutions that do not comply with the regulations.

(a) The location of the manufacturer lounge or special event area:

The location of the manufactuer lounge is within the primary manufacturing facility. It has an interior and a patio area. It is located in a remote location and is suitable for such an endorsement.

(b) The proximity of the lounge to other social or recreational facilities and public buildings:

The only nearby social, recreational and public buildings do not conflict with the operation of a lounge. - or - The proposed location of the lounge is across a lane from a church with an attached retirement facility and church hall routinely used for youth group gatherings. The proximity of the proposed winery lounge is considered compatible with the neighbouring facilities.

(c) The person capacity of the lounge:

The maximum person capacity of the y lounge is 65 persons as per building authorities.

(d) Hours of liquor service of the lounge:

Hours of liquor service are proposed to be from 4 PM to 10 PM daily. A larger capacity or later hours is not supported given the few number of police on duty to respond to concerns.

(e) Traffic, noise, parking and zoning:

Traffic in the area is not an issue. The road is located away from the main road resulting in noise not being an issue. Ample parking is available at the winery. Zoning permits a lounge for the sale and service of liquor by the glass or bottle.

(f) The impact on the community if the application is approved;

If the application is approved, the impact is expected to be positive in that it will support the growth in tourism and offer a new social venue for residents.

The Council's comments on the views of residents are as follows: RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 46 Attachment 5.2

The views of residents within a half mile* of the proposed lounge area were gathered by way of *written comments that were received in response to a public notice posted at the site and newspaper advertisements placed in two consecutive editions of the local newspaper. Residents were given 30 days from the date of the first newspaper advertisement to provide their written views. Residents were also given an opportunity to provide comments at the public meeting of Council held on date.

A total of 63 responses were received from businesses and residents. Of the responses received, 21 were in support of the application citing the creation of additional jobs and a new entertainment venue for the area as their primary reasons. A total of 42 letters were received in opposition to the application. The primary reason cited by those in opposition was the proposed closing hours. A number of business residents in the area also cited the lack of parking as an area of concern.

The following examples illustrate one option that Council may complete their comments on the views of residents based upon the preceding fact pattern.

Based upon the input received by residents within a half mile of the proposed winery lounge there is a two to one ratio of opposed residents to residents that support the application. The opposition to this endorsement comes from both homeowners and businesses. Council is of the view that with both the residential and business communities' opposition to this proposed establishment that the issuance of a winery lounge endorsement would be contrary to the community standard for this area.

Despite the potential creation of additional jobs and a new entertainment venue for the area Council is unable to support the issuance of the endorsement. Council recommends that a licence not be issued.

* The local government or First Nation determines the appropriate area to be included and the method for gathering those views RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 47 Attachment 5.2 ATTACHMENT 2-

September 2014 I visited Col. Richard Moody's death and burial place in Bournemouth, Dorset, UK. While there I met with: (1) the Vicar of St. Peter's Church and Cemetery, Rev. Ian Terry, where Moody is buried and is known as the "Founder of British Columbia"; (2) Mayor Chris Mayne and Counsellors of the City of Bournemouth; and (3) Mr. John Walker, the City's archivist. I also located and spent time in Lyme Regis, Dorset, where Col. Moody and his family returned to England after his five years in the Colony of British Columbia. He lived there until his death in 1887. In each place, and with each opportunity, I spoke of the vibrancy of the City of Port Moody as a significant legacy of Col. Moody.

October 2014 I was invited to speak with a group of seniors at the Shoal Seniors Centre, Sidney, about Col. Moody's work in the Colony and how he is connected with the City of Port Moody.

Furthermore, I personally encouraged Pitt Meadows in planning celebrations for their 2014 centennial activities after the experience of Port Moody's centennial events.

Periodically, I spoke of the significant relationship between the vision of Col. Moody and the vibrancy of the City of Port Moody on many other casual occasions, near and far, including Regina, Winnipeg, Whistler; and on Vancouver Island including Sidney, Victoria, Chemainus, Ucluelet, and Duncan; as well as along the route of our journey through Scotland and England in September.

In addition, I took the advantage to relate Col. Moody and the City of Port Moody at various organizations, including the Duke of Edinburgh's Awards, the Peninsula Streams Society, the Mary Winspear Centre Foundation, the Royal Commonwealth Society, Royal Roads University, and the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, as well as with Lieutenant-Governor Judith Guichon.

On all these occasions, I did not always appear in the heritage costume of Col. Moody, but when ever the opportunity arose, I proudly wore the uniform.

Councillor Rockwell brought forward a notice of motion as follows:

Whereas-the BC Energy Plan and the recent BC government self-sufficiency directive to the BC Utilities Commission (BCUC), could see the closure of Burrard Thermal even though the Burrard Thermal plant has let BC Hydro take advantage of the wholesale electricity markets without being dependent on them and is an extremely important strategic asset to the BC Hydro system, and;

Whereas Burrard Thermal's unique value includes being strategically located in the lower mainland close to a highly concentrated population base, helps ensure peak and annual electricity requirements can be met and is an important facility to the economy and tax base of Port Moody and can be retrofitted and repowered to include the full offset of GHG and other emissions, and;

Whereas the BC Utilities Commission has not yet 4 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 62 Attachment 5.4

addressed whether it is in the best interests of British Columbians to close Burrard Thermal, and recent independent analysis suggests our self-sufficiency requirements could be most affordably and environmentally met by balancing domestic and imported power supply combined with a retrofitted and repowered Burrard Thermal, however Calgary-based Westpac LNG has recently begun planning to construct a natural gas generation and import facility on Texada Island in the Strait of Georgia, which the proponent claims will speed the closure of Burrard Thermal.

Therefore be it resolved that the City of Port Moody oppose all efforts to close this important and strategic asset and call for an immediate upgrade and repowering of Burrard Thermal to include the full offset of GHG or other emissions, and;

Therefore be it resolved that the City of Port Moody continue to oppose the actions of Bill 30 that precluded municipalities in having meaningful input into any energy developments, and;

Therefore be it finally resolved that the City of Port Moody call upon the UBCM to conduct a comprehensive review of the impacts of the BC governments Energy Plan including the future of Burrard Thermal, the impacts of new developments and the future of our public hydro system.

Councillor Rockwell advised that when the motion comes forward at the next Council meeting she would be providing research critiquing the provincial government's Energy Plan.

Moved, seconded and CARRIED THAT the following recommendation from the Burrard Thermal Liaison Committee be endorsed and forwarded to the 2008 UBCM Convention:

WHEREAS the Burrard Thermal Generating Plant (BTGP) in Port Moody has the capacity to generate approximately 10% of the total electricity demand supplied by BC Hydro, is a firm source located within the region that consumes approximately 50% of BC Hydro's capacity and thus is strategically located to supply electricity during emergency conditions such as ice storms which could affect transmission lines.

AND WHEREAS pollution from the plant is not a reason to close the plant given that a number of improvements in recent years have significantly reduced emissions of smog-producing pollutants, there is no significant negative impact from the plant on water quality in Burrard Inlet, BTGP releases only a small fraction of the green house gases (GHG) emitted from vehicles in Metro Vancouver, has been well maintained and thus continues to have a reasonable life span well beyond 2014 and particularly given that BTGP operates primarily during the winter months to meet peak energy demand when the generation of smog-producing chemicals is of least concern. AND WHEREAS using Burrard Thermal rather than purchasing electricity from coal-fired sources outside British Columbia is consistent with provincial energy policies to promote self-sufficiency and reduce GHG production and thus could avoid anticipated electricity shortages that will occur in the absence of a continued reliance on BTGP.

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT UBCM request that the BC Provincial Government not close the Burrard Thermal Generating Plant in 2014 which, according to the Provincial Energy Plan would result in 7 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 65 Attachment 5.4

an electricity shortage, but rather keep BTGP in operation and fully maintained as a firm, reliable and relatively clean energy source to help meet the Province's electricity needs during high demand periods, such as the winter months, or emergency conditions as well as providing ongoing voltage regulation.

Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources In its 2008 Long Term Acquisition Plan (2008 LTAP), BC Hydro has asked the British Columbia Utilities Commission (BCUC) to endorse BC Hydro's proposal to rely on Burrard for planning purposes for 900 megawatt of dependable capacity and 3,000 gigawatt hours of firm energy per year until at least 2019. The Government recognizes that the value of the capacity, energy and voltage support provided by Burrard may warrant continuing to keep the plant available if needed for peaks in demand (for example, resulting from cold winter weather, Christmas lighting, and to deal with other resources being unexpectedly unavailable). These may continue to be appropriate longer term roles for Burrard if the plant remains cost effective. The BCUC will continue to oversee the resource plans of utilities, and will review BC Hydro's 2008 LTAP, including BC Hydro's plans for Burrard, and will approve the projects and plans it deems to be cost effective and in the public interest.

City of Port Moody Report/Recommendation to Council

File No. 11-5240-01/Vol 01

Submitted by: Engineering and Parks Services

Subject: Repairs to Ailsa Park Waterpark

Purpose / Introduction To provide an update to Council on recommended improvements to this Ailsa Park Waterpark.

Recommended Resolutions

THAT the report dated January 28, 2015 from Engineering and Parks Services regarding Repairs to Ailsa Park Waterpark be received for information.

Background This report provides an update on Ailsa Waterpark, outlining the design progress and intended course of action for this project.

The Ailsa Park Splashpad was identified as a capital project in 2012, with an initial budget allocation of $86,500. The existing splashpad has extensive surface cracks, with much of the asphalt surface showing signs of failure. Fraser Health Authority has expressed concerns with the continued operation of the facility (citing concerns with trip hazards and concerns with slips/falls). At the time of installation, this project did not include any considerations for enhancements of the facility to current industry standards, nor did the scope include review and assessment of the water supply system or drainage outlets.

Staff retained a design consultant (Durante Kreuk Architects Ltd.) to prepare design options for this facility, including cost estimates for the various options. As part of the design considerations, the condition of the water supply system and the drainage outlet for the facility were identified as further areas of concern, requiring consideration in the design. A final design option was developed that incorporated improvements to the water and drainage systems. Reductions in the size and layout of the facility were necessary (see Attachment 1) to more closely align with the available budget. This work was completed in 2013.

As part of the consultation process, staff met with representatives of the Glenayre Neighbourhood Association to review the consultant's design options. They expressed concern with the size and layout of the proposed design, indicating that it was significantly smaller and without the same character as the existing facility. They were also very concerned with potential delays associated with the construction of a new facility. The consultant noted that a new facility

EDMS-#296651-v1-Repairs_to_Ailsa_Park_Waterpark_-_Council_Report RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 70 Attachment 5.5 Report/Recommendation to Council Repairs to Ailsa Park Waterpark January 28, 2015 would require approval from the Fraser Health Authority, which could take 4-6 months. Following receipt of this information, staff revisited the design, looking for possible alternatives that would provide a more effective design solution.

Discussion Through the review process, staff explored other opportunities to rehabilitate the facility surface, using alternative materials and approaches, as outlined in the options shown below.

Summary of Recommended Approach

While a full reconstruction of the waterpark (as contemplated in Options 3A/3B - below) would provide the most effective overall solution, that work could not be completed within the available timeframe and available budget this year. Based on detailed review of the available options, staff are intending to proceed with Option 2 (refurbish the existing surface), as that option would allow the facility to continue to operate for a set period of time and would address Fraser Health Authority concerns. It is anticipated that staff would pursue further consultation and design evaluation as part of subsequent consideration of a longer-term solution (as part of future capital budget considerations).

Option 1 Remove and replace the existing surface, water supply, and drainage system

This option is essentially a complete rehabilitation and replacement of the existing asphalt surfacing, including improvements to water features and storm drainage system.

Discussion:

This option would allow for in-situ repairs and the timely completion of the work. It would also more closely match the character and function of the current splashpad, which would address input received from the neighbourhood association. Given that this option would rehabilitate the splashpad within its current footprint, Fraser Health Authority staff have indicated that a formal application for approval would not be required.

It is important to note that this option does not incorporate installation of new spray (toy) features. It is anticipated that these features could be provided as funding allows (through future budget considerations). The cost of the spray heads typically range from $5,000 to $25,000, depending on the complexity of the unit. The water supply system proposed under this option would incorporate new (compatible) bases and piping, with temporary (removable) spray features.

This option does create a schedule risk (due to the extent, of work required), and could not be completed within the available budget.

EDMS-#296651-v1-Repairs_to_Ailsa_Park_Waterpark_-_Council_Report RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 71 Attachment 5.5 Report/Recommendation to Council Repairs to Ailsa Park Waterpark January 28, 2015

Option 2 Refurbish existing surface

This option would include sandblasting and sealing of the existing surface, leaving the current spray features in place.

Discussion:

This option would allow for in-situ repairs to the existing surface materials only (removing cracked/peeled surface defects), using select (spot) repairs to repair defects and provide a new (sealed) surface.

While this option would address concerns from Fraser Health, it represents a short term solution that would require further work within a 3 to 5 year timeframe. Improvements to the existing water supply system could not be included in this option, due to the extensive excavation work necessary to access the piping network. Drainage improvements would also need to be deferred to future works due to budget and schedule constraints.

Option 3A Replace the existing facility with a new (similar sized) facility

This option would require complete demolition of the existing facility, and replacement of same with a new facility of a similar size. New spray toy features would be incorporated, including new water supply and drainage infrastructure.

Discussion:

Given that this would represent the construction of a new facility, approval from the Fraser Health Authority would be required (timeframe for approval is estimated at 4-6 months). The construction timeframe required to remove the existing facility and construct the replacement would be extensive (there us the potential that the project could not be completed until after the peak summer months - i.e. late September). Through the consultation process, the neighbourhood association expressed concern with any potential delays in completing the construction.

Based on the timeframe, approval requirements, and costs associated with this option, staff are not recommending this option be pursued at this time.

Option 3B Replace the existing facility with a new (smaller) facility

This option would require complete demolition of the existing facility, and replacement of same with a smaller facility (to more closely align with available project budget).

EDMS-#296651 -v1 -Repairs_to_Ai!sa_Park_Waterpark_-_Council_Report RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 72 Attachment 5.5 Report/Recommendation to Council Repairs to Ailsa Park Waterpark January 28, 2015

Discussion:

This option is essentially the same as Option 3A, however, the footprint of the facility was reduced (by approximately one-half) to more closely align with the available budget. It would still require formal approval from Fraser Health, and would not be complete in time for the peak summer period.

The neighbourhood association expressed concerns with this option, as it would greatly reduce the useable space, and negatively impact the character of the facility.

Based on the timeframe, approval requirements, costs and input received from stakeholders, staff are not recommending this option be pursued at this time.

Financial Implications The work proposed under Option 2 can be completed within the available project budget allocated. Staff do not anticipate that any additional funds will be required.

The current project budget allocation is $86,500, with an available $68,500 remaining to complete the scope of works.

Communications / Civic Engagement The Glenayre Neighbourhood Association were consulted as part of refining the available options. Based on their input, they would prefer improvements to the existing facility that would retain a similar character and layout. They were not supportive of any reduction in facility size (as proposed in Option 3B). They were also concerned with any extensive delays related to the approval process for a new facility.

Council Strategic Plan Objectives This project follows Council's Strategic Objectives of Excellence in Service and Nurturing Community. Maintenance of existing infrastructure assets is a key strategic objective of the City.

o h| t. Zoning Bylaw Text Amendment - Commercial Medical Marihuana u ^eG ' Production and Testing - Prohibited Use

Purpose / Introduction To present for consideration a text amendment to the City of Port Moody Zoning Bylaw No. 1890, that would add a definition of "Medical Marihuana Production and Testing Use" to the definitions section of the Bylaw and add that use to the list of prohibited uses in the City.

Recommended Resolutions

THAT Bylaw 2999, cited as City of Port Moody Zoning Bylaw, 1988, No. 1890, Amendment Bylaw No. 228, 2015, No. 2999, be read a first and second time as recommended in report dated February 2, 2015 from Development Services regarding Zoning Bylaw Text Amendment - Commercial Medical Marihuana Production and Testing - Prohibited Use;

AND THAT Bylaw No. 2999 be referred to a Public Hearing on Tuesday, February 24, 2015 at City Hall, 100 Newport Drive, Port Moody.

Executive Summary The Bylaw text amendment proposed in this report is in response to the change in Federal regulations relating to the production and testing of marihuana for medical use. Prior to March 31, 2014, the production of medical marihuana was restricted by the Marihuana Medical Access Regulations (MMAR) program, under which individuals could grow marihuana for themselves, or have a designated person grow marihuana for them. As of March 31, 2014, the Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulation (MMPR) came into effect which focuses production to fewer, but larger scale commercial producers.

The proposed text amendment to the City of Port Moody Zoning Bylaw proposes to add a definition of "Medical Marihuana Production and Testing Use" to the definitions section, and add that use to the list of prohibited uses in the City. The prohibition of such a use should be based upon valid planning purposes. In the case of medical marihuana production and testing, the rationale for its prohibition in Port Moody is based on concerns over the suitability of sites for such a use from a law enforcement point of view, and the proximity of potential sites to other land uses seen as non-compatible, such as parks, schools and other institutional uses and residential land uses.

#295873 1 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 88 Attachment 7.3 Report/Recommendation to Council Zoning Bylaw Text Amendment - Commercial Medical Marihuana Production and Testing - Prohibited Use February 2, 2015

Background The new Federal MMPR came into effect on March 31, 2014. The new regulation replaced the MMAR, which authorized individuals to grow marihuana for themselves, or have a designated person grow marihuana for them. The new MMPR program includes a licensing system that is intended to allow for production of medical marihuana on a larger commercial scale, similar to that of other pharmaceutical products.

Following the changes in these regulations, staff reports were considered by the Committee of the Whole on May 20, 2014 and July 15, 2014. Following Committee discussion at the July 15, 2014 meeting, the following resolutions were passed:

THAT staff be directed to prepare the necessary bylaw amendment to GVRD Zoning Bylaw No. 511 to prohibit medical marihuana production uses within the existing A-1 Small Holding Rural Zone and A-2 Extensive Rural and Recreational Zone lands within Port Moody.

THAT the Port Moody Zoning Bylaw No. 1890 be amended to allow medical marihuana production and testing in M1 and M3 zones within the urbanized areas of the City as recommended in report dated June 30, 2014 from Development Services - Planning Division regarding Regulation of Commercial Medical Marihuana Production in Port Moody.

The proposed Bylaw amendments were reviewed on September 2, 2014 by the Land Use Committee. As part of the discussion, concern was expressed over the proximity of some of the M3 zoned lands to residential properties. The discussion resulted in the following resolutions being passed:

THAT the application to amend GVRD Zoning Bylaw (No. 511) in order to prohibit medical marihuana production uses in the Small Holding Rural Zone (A-1*) and the Extensive Rural and Recreational Zone (A-2*) lands be supported as presented.

THAT the application to amend the City of Port Moody Zoning Bylaw (No. 1890) in order to permit medical marihuana production uses in the Light Industrial (M1) and the General Industrial (M3) lands be supported as presented.

THAT the foregoing motion be amended to exclude the Suncor properties.

At the January 13, 2015 Regular Council Meeting, the text amendments to the GVRD and City of Port Moody Zoning Bylaws were considered..

The GVRD Zoning Bylaw Amendment Bylaw proposed to change the definition of Agricultural Use, by adding medical marihuana production to the list of excluded uses. This proposed

2 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 89 Attachment 7.3 Report/Recommendation to Council Zoning Bylaw Text Amendment - Commercial Medical Marihuana Production and Testing - Prohibited Use February 2, 2015 amendment applied to ail Small Holding Rural Zone (A-1*) and Extensive Rural and Recreation Zone (A-2*) zoned properties in the former GVRD lands on the north shore. Following discussion at the January 13, 2015 meeting, this Bylaw was given first and second reading and referred to Public Hearing. On January 27, 2015, at the Regular Council Meeting that immediately followed the Public Hearing, Council adopted the Bylaw.

Following discussion at the January 13, 2015, Regular Council Meeting, the proposed Bylaw to permit medical marihuana production and testing in M1 and M3 zoned lands, with the exception of the Suncor lands, was defeated and the following resolution was passed:

THAT a Zoning Text Amendment be brought forward to prohibit commercial medical marihuana production and testing in Port Moody.

Discussion Many municipalities in Metro Vancouver have assessed their land use bylaws in light of recent changes to the federal regulations governing the production of medical marihuana. In some municipalities with agriculturally zoned areas, medical marihuana production is a permitted use in all or some agricultural zones. Others permit the use within specific industrial zones. In some cases, zones have been created to accommodate the use without any corresponding lands identified, requiring a site specific rezoning in each case. At this time, commercial medical marihuana production is not a permitted use in North Vancouver District, West Vancouver, Pitt Meadows, and the City of Langley.

In relation to the prohibition of commercial medical marihuana production and testing, the prohibition of such a use should be based upon valid planning purposes. Concern over the suitability of sites within Port Moody for such use from a law enforcement point of view, and also the proximity of potential sites to other land uses seen as non-compatible, such as residential and institutional, could be seen as valid planning related considerations.

As part of the MMPR licensing process, Health Canada requires licensed producers to comply with all federal, provincial/territorial and municipal laws and bylaws, including municipal zoning bylaws. As part of the application process, applicants are required to notify local governments, police forces and fire authorities of their intention to apply to Health Canada. Licensed producers are also required to communicate with local authorities whenever there is a change in the status of their licence.

Port Moody Zoning Bylaw No. 1890 The proposed text amendments to the Zoning Bylaw include, adding a definition of 'Medical Marihuana Production and Testing Use' to the Definitions section of the Zoning Bylaw, which would read:

Medical Marihuana Production and Testing Use means a use providing for the commercial production and/or the testing of medical marihuana.

3 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 90 Attachment 7.3 Report/Recommendation to Council Zoning Bylaw Text Amendment - Commercial Medical Marihuana Production and testing - Prohibited Use February 2, 2015

Medical Marihuana Production and Testing Use is proposed to be added to the list of prohibited uses in the General Regulations section of Zoning Bylaw. A copy of the Draft City of Port Moody Zoning Bylaw Text Amendment Bylaw is included as Attachment 1.

Public Safety The Port Moody Police Department feels that the new MMPR process appears to be a preferable alternative to that which was in operation under the MMAR. However, as the MMPR represents a major change to the rules and regulations, it is not clear exactly how the new system will work and there is still some concern that organized criminal activity may be a part of the process.

Controlled Substance Property Bylaw It is also noted that the City has a Controlled Substance Property Bylaw No. 2523. That Bylaw was enacted on October 8, 2002, primarily to deal with the issue of illegal marihuana grow operations in the City and the costs associated with decommissioning them, including City related inspections. Within that Bylaw, Section 3.1, under "Prohibition of Controlled Substance Manufacture" states that: "No Person, Owner or Occupant of Property within the City shall cause, permit or allow any Property to become or remain a place for the trade, business or manufacture of a Controlled Substance"

The definition of Controlled Substance, as per the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, 1996 c.19, includes within its definition marihuana, its preparations, derivatives and similar synthetic preparations. The text amendment to the Zoning Bylaw proposed in this report would be compatible with the content of the Controlled Substance Property Bylaw.

Other Options THAT Bylaw No. 2999 not be given First and Second reading and not proceed to Public Hearing.

Financial Implications In addition to staff time associated with the processing of a Zoning Bylaw text amendment, there would also be additional costs associated with required newspaper advertisements. These costs would be covered within the existing budget for Development Services.

Communications / Civic Engagement In accordance with the City's Development Approval Procedures Bylaw and the Local Government Act, notification of the Land Use Committee meeting advertisements were placed in the August 27th and 29th, 2014 editions of The Now. Should this application proceed to Public Hearing, it will again be advertised in the local newspaper in accordance with the Development Approval Procedures Bylaw and the Local Government Act.

It was a bold move by the Council and City staff of the Overview day to make this the tag line for the City. This heart-felt value Those staff members who were interviewed ranged from five has held for almost 15 years. For the outside observer, watching years to upwards of 15 years of service with the City of Port the Arts Centre expand with the new heritage building annex, Moody. Most positions within the division are specialized and knowing that recently the Heritage Society with Station Museum have little to no cross-over opportunities except for clerical staff published the “Tracks of Time, Port Moody’s First 100 Years”, or administrative duties. Despite these focused roles, there is a that the Film Festival continues to thrive, and the special events common emphasis on customer service and organizational in the Park welcome residents and visitors alike all year long, skills. When asked about notable skills staff members possessed, Port Moody is a good and healthy place for the arts, culture event planning and technical skills were prominent. As for and heritage. Cultural Services staff should be commended for hidden skills which are not currently used, staff reported various their commitment. The role of the passionate and hard working artistic abilities, website management, and communication volunteers is the fire that keeps it all ignited. skills. The many functions carried out by staff are commonly understood and all were well aware that, to a large extent, they Technical – Strategy, Service Delivery, are the vital team that is expected to keep the “City of the Arts” Policies, and Processes brand current and consistent. However, Staff were unaware of the precise future for this brand and how it is to be maintained During the interview process the participants were asked which and grown within existing resources. Although Cultural Services services, if any, were provided efficiently and effectively, and staff understand the core business of the division, many alternatively which services, if any, were not provided effectively stakeholders believe that it should be more clearly defined and efficiently. Several responses for both questions focused and mandated. on event provision and organization. In general the consensus was that for the events which are Cultural Services’ product, It was suggested that to truly be the City of the Arts there needs to the team’s delivery was considered good to exceptional. be a stronger visual expression that makes it a reality to everyone who comes to the City of Port Moody. Suggestions included: colourful houses, colourful crosswalks, “monumental” art pieces; and more “artsy” signs. This larger vision is expressed vividly in the Arts and Culture Master Plan, the City’s guiding document for the division and the Arts and Culture Committee, and many in the arts community have embraced it. While broader than the mandate of Cultural Services, it is mentioned here as two stakeholders felt very strongly about the issue. The strategies adopted in the plan did not come with commensurate resources for implementation. Many in the arts community feel it is a significant part of Cultural Service’s role and responsibility to embrace this concept and it is a failure of the division that more is not done to reflect this brand.

Despite these current sentiments, in the relatively short time that Port Moody has been the “City of the Arts”, there has been significant growth and stablility of arts, culture and heritage activity. A comparison with cities of equal or greater populations shows that Port Moody’s policies and funding compare favourably. Communication with arts, culture and heritage stakeholders is an important process, so that these stakeholders can understand that the “City of the Arts” brand is a reflection of the beliefs, values and work of the Council and staff of the City. It is something that every resident can be proud of as it bolsters the City’s commitment to the environment, recycling, parks, recreation, and other key municipal

10 Municiapal Service Assessment RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 (Revised) 105 Attachment 9.1 Notably, the division is very good at direct service provision at the theatre, exhibits in the galleria, and special events in the parks. The online event listings have also greatly improved according to both internal and external stakeholders.

Despite the majority of respondents praising the handling of events there were also a few concerns. For some, the event support provided to them by Cultural Services was lacking. One respondent claimed that their event had not received equal treatment and was eager to speak to someone in person to resolve what they see as an emerging conflict.

Some internal clients felt that once booked, the division delivers well, but there was no formal system for booking City parks a large amount of the work undertaken by the division. On the for special events. The largest issue that was raised by different heels of intense activity during the Centennial celebrations of stakeholders was the ownership of events. It should be 2013, this directive has led to a number of workload challenges mentioned that this issue is wider than the division itself, but for the small team. The Arts and Culture Committee is expecting considering that event delivery is a key service of the division, program delivery without much strategic direction. The the concerns are relevant. Events are intended to be community imperative question is, whether staff drive initiatives or if the driven, but Cultural Services does most of the work and is committee does.

As this position is part-time, It is important to recognize that the City of Port Moody is not the process can be delayed. In addition, there is a desire large enough or staffed fully enough to compete with larger to see Cultural Services be more proactive and supportive of municipalities in respect to all artistic and cultural categories. using the tools required by other departments in order to Council needs to be clear as to what the focus is: physical art; ensure workflow is consistent and concise. Some of the external partnerships within the community; arts programs; or arts stakeholders and renters using the theatre were looking facilities. Furthermore, no matter how it is finally decided that for improved technical services to make their presentations the division should operate, Cultural Services needs to be capable of more sophisticated production values. aggressive in getting what is required in order to fulfill their role within the organization. One of the largest challenges for Cultural Services is how to best organize. With the growth of the City came the formation The lack of strategic planning and the confusion around service of the Arts and Culture Committee which has the mandate to levels and priorities has resulted in high workloads and mounting implement the Arts and Culture Master Plan. This now influences challenges for the division. This is not an unusual circumstance

Cultural Services 11 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 (Revised) 106 Attachment 9.1 It was mentioned that communications between the division and other business units within the organization has markedly improved in the past months. The division has worked to connect across the organization more effectively but they have not been able to shake a perception that they isolate themselves. It was mentioned by internal stakeholders, that this mode of self-preservation is perceived as negativity to new ideas and initiatives and that the operation is in “crisis-mode”. Some of the barriers erected by Cultural Services feel artificial to stakeholders. For example, the practice of charging back for Cultural Services employees’ time is not well understood by those outside the department and seem to validate this opinion. Committee suggestions and sub-committee direction, and members of Council coming directly to the division to action initiatives could also be feeding this resistance to ideas.

Cultural Services was initially set up to manage the Inlet Theatre and then to facilitate opportunities for arts and culture to where community demand for service outstrips the internal fiscal flourish in the City, supporting the non-profit organizations limitations of a department.

Some felt that promotion by the City unanswered for several business days. One suggestion was to needs to be expanded, as the residents of Port Moody are often better use existing staff by increasing hours during busy periods not aware of events and performing arts events are not filling and to have the manager delegate more duties.

However, external stakeholders do not their supervisor is helpful, but not always around. In these cases, understand the “brand consistently and design guidelines” there is no one else to go to when the supervisor is not available. that exist in the City. These limit Cultural Services staff ability to fulfil this need on the municipal website or on social media.

In general, those interviewed had general issues with the municipality as a whole and less with the division specifically. There is a demand for a greater focus on the arts, culture, and heritage recognition by Council and senior management. And in this vein, they expect Cultural Services to be their constant advocate; a role they do not feel the division currently fulfills.

All team members interviewed were asked if they felt that they were afforded the opportunity to reach their full potential. The majority felt that they are not. The common obstacles identified were: administrative restrictions, such as managing folders in RPM; Cultural Services 13 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 (Revised) 108 Attachment 9.1 Recommendations

It may be impossible for Cultural Services costs of all this service are hidden within the various operational to address this issue, but there was a shared opinion that budgets but more and more communities want to know what Cultural Services should reach out more to:

• promote exchanges and event-sharing among cultural groups • promote arts and events in the community with local schools • partner with local businesses for sponsorships and ideas and that this would alleviate some of the concerns.

Stakeholders expressed a deficit regarding strategic leadership of cultural services in a number of areas. There is a sense that Arts & Culture is supported well versus being developed with the strategic guidance by City staff. The General Manager of Community Services is encouraged to take a more active role in liaising with community groups and ensuring all stakeholders are supported both internally and externally. Technical – Strategy, Service Delivery, Policies, and Processes Moving forward there is an obvious demand for Council to determine the role of the Arts and Culture Committee. Council should determine whether they want the committee to provide high-level strategic overviews or if they want them to provide low-level program creation. Whatever is decided, if Council wants to change the model it is necessary to address whether the division is structured to meet the demands of the model and to determine and reconcile the costs associated with a notable service level increase.

Council should re-define/clarify what external stakeholders expect from the “City of the Arts” brand and how that relates

City of Port Moody Report/Recommendatioin to Council

Date: January 6,2015 File No. 14-7200-05

Submitted by: Fire-Rescue Department

Subject: Marine Fire Response Options

Purpose / Introduction To seek Council direction on the level and types of marine fire response service that staff should pursue for the City of Port Moody.

Recommended Resolutions

THAT Option 1 - Purchasing Marine Fire Response Service from the City of Vancouver, as recommended in the report from the Fire-Rescue Department regarding Marine Fire Response Options dated January 6, 2015, be approved;

AND THAT additional funds of $15,000 for Fire Boat operating costs be considered during budget deliberations.

Background A Fire Boat Consortium Agreement was signed on August 27, 1991 and expired on August 27, 2011. The agreement was made between the Vancouver Port Corporation (now Port Metro Vancouver) and five port cities located along Burrard Inlet (City of Vancouver, City and District of North Vancouver, City of Burnaby, and City of Port Moody), and set out the terms for the operating, funding, and management of five fire boats to provide Marine Fire Protection Services. The Consortium is currently operating under an extension agreement that was agreed to by all parties except for the City of Burnaby who as opted out of the agreement. The Consortium is set to dissolve at the end of 2015 and the parties have been exploring options for provision of Marine Fire Protection Services.

Over the life of the consortium agreement, the City has not experienced many boat fires; however, since the beginning of the fire boat consortium on August 27, 1991, there have been two very large boat fires, both at Reed Point Marina. Between 2007 and 2013, Port Moody Fire Rescue (PMFR) has averaged approximately two Fire Boat calls per year in the Port Moody Harbour. The yearly average of calls per year rises to three if one includes the PMFR fire boat responses to other consortium members' jurisdiction.

1 Document: 294191 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 116 Attachment 9.2 Report/Recommendation to Council Marine Fire Response Options January 6, 2015

Typical fire boat emergency responses by PMFR include medical aid, rescue for tipped kayaks and canoes, vessels on fire in the harbour, and boat fires at Reed Point Marina. Non-emergency calls include Haz-Mat spills and public safety patrol during public events (fireworks display).

Discussion Staff have reviewed the following six options:

Option 1 (Recommended) - Purchasing Marine Fire Response Service from the City of Vancouver

On May 26, 2014 the City of Vancouver met with the Port Moody City Manager and Fire Chief to present their "Vancouver Marine Fire Response Service" option available to neighbouring port cities (Attachment #1). The following are some highlights of the presentation:

Fireboats • Two boats with a 12m (36.37ft) length and 1m (3.28ft) draft. • Pumping capacity of 3,500 US gallons per minute (gpm) while manoeuvring & 7,000 US gpm while anchored or docked. • On call 24/7 and a targeted 30 minute response time. • Firefighters trained in marine and shoreline firefighting tactics and all-hazard emergency response.

Terms & Fees » 15 year contract term. • Annual fee of $40,000.00 • Annual call limit of 4. • Call fee of $6000.00 for calls over annual call limit, e Maximum call duration of 4 hours. • Extended call fee of $1500.00 per hour for calls over 4 hours. » Non-subscriber fee of $60,000.00 for 4 hours and $6,000.00 per hour for calls over 4 hours.

Port Metro Vancouver will be participating in the operating costs (confirmed) by contributing an annual fee of $290,000.00.

The neighbouring port cities offered the "Vancouver Marine Fire Response Service" include the City of North Vancouver, the District of North Vancouver, the City of West Vancouver, the City of Burnaby and the City of Port Moody. The fee structure is the same for all these cities. The City of Vancouver's annual contribution is estimated at $580,000.00. The City of Burnaby has decided not to participate.

Staff Concerns ® The 30 minute targeted response time would be under ideal conditions and is calculated from a proposed location at the foot of Victoria Drive.

2 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 117 Attachment 9.2 Report/Recommendation to Council Marine Fire Response Options January 6, 2015

• The response time from the existing fire boat location near the Seabus Terminal is estimated to be 42 minutes under ideal conditions.

Option 2 - Purchasing a Port Moody owned fire boat operated by Fire-Rescue only (Police would not share this boat). The service provided with this type of boat (Attachment #2) would be different than the Vancouver Marine Fire Response Service but the Department feels it could maintain current response times to the Port Moody harbour and eliminate response conflicts as this would be an exclusive Port Moody fire boat, and ensure long term continuance of marine fire fighting capabilities.

PMFR currently has an operating budget of approximately $25,000 allocated to costs related to the operation and maintenance of the three fire boats operated by the Consortium. That annual budget could be put towards the purchase or lease or of a fire boat, estimated to cost approximately $300,000. The useful life of the boat is estimated to be conservatively 15 years. The City could enter into a lease with the Municipal Finance Authority (MFA). Leasing a $300,000 fireboat over 15 years would cost approximately $26,000 per year.

The costs of operating and maintaining the boat, including fuel, maintenance, insurance and potential moorage could add another approximately $20,800 annually to the current $25,000 Fire-Rescue budget, although staff do not have the data or experience of operating in-house fire boat services to provide an estimate with any certainty. An appropriate sized boat house (new) is estimated to cost approximately $100,000. The City could borrow the money from MFA with annual payments of approximately $20,900. The costs of training and staffing are already included in the Fire-Rescue budget in another cost center, and are therefore not a factor.

Option 3 - No fire boat service in Port Moody. This option would mean that the City would be relying entirely on land-based firefighting strategies. Although PMFR could fight most fires from land, there would be certain risks associated with this model. Specifically, there would be exposures to marinas along the waterfront, as well as exposures to wharfs, piers, forested areas and certain private residences that currently have boat-access only. Under this option, Port Moody could exercise the non- member option from Vancouver Marine Fire Response Service for $60,000.00 for 4 hrs per call or a Seaspan Marine Fire Response Option for $2500.00 per hour. A response under these options is based upon availability.

Option 4 - A Port Moody owned boat shared by the Port Moody Police Department (PMPD) and Port Moody Fire Rescue (PMFR). Representatives from PMPD and PMFR met to discuss the possibility of a shared boat and both parties agreed that a shared boat would be workable. Each department listed their respective operational necessities needed to meet their requirements. The operational necessities that were shared by both departments include storage, deck space, communications, navigation and vessel power equipment. There were two operational necessities that were not shared. The

3 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 118 Attachment 9.2 Report/Recommendation to Council Marine Fire Response Options January 6, 2015

PMPD require a rigid hull inflatable style of vessel for the ability of attaching to and boarding other vessels quickly and relatively safely. PMFR requires a water pump and monitors to deliver water streams on fires.

Staff has been provided with costs from a local vendor on the purchase and operation of two boats in different sizes. The smaller vessel at 30.5 feet has not been considered by staff as it has space and stability issues. The cost and particulars for the larger 33.5-foot boat (Polaris Inflatable boat) are provided below:

• Rigid hull inflatable (Attachment #3) • Twin 300hp outboard engines • Inboard V8 engine to power the water pump (1500 gallons per minute) • Navigational and other electronic instruments (radar, GPS, depth sounder, VHF radio) a The purchase cost is $372,107 (subject to US exchange rates) • The annual operating costs are estimated to be approximately $90,000 (boat lease, boathouse lease, maintenance, insurance, moorage, small contingency)

Option 5 - Marine Fire Response Service provided by Seaspan Marine.

Seaspan Marine operates three T-Class tugs, with water pumping capability, in the Vancouver Harbour. Their main usage is for ship docking and ship escort. One of the tugs is always staffed (24/7) and in service. The other two tugs, when not in service, are available and can be operated by call-out crews. When in service they are actively working 50% of the time. Their response time to Port Moody would be 1 hour at best.

The Seaspan tugs are available on an emergency call-out basis, for $2,500.00 per hour, without a formal agreement. Under this circumstance they would be under the direction of Port Moody Incident Command (IC) and the City would assume all liability for their activity in fire operations. Seaspan crews have minimal familiarity with the IC structure and have little training in marine and/or land based firefighting procedures. Currently they are not familiar with firefighting communications nor do they have compatible radio equipment on their vessels. ;

Seaspan Marine presented a proposal for contracted Marine Fire Protection Services for the three North Shore municipalities. The fee for the proposal was $55,000.00 for the first year and $35,000.00 for years 2-5. This contract included start-up training for the North Shore fire officers, exercises, ongoing training and the development of policy and procedures for all participants. The three North Shore municipalities declined the proposal and chose to purchase Marine Fire Response Services from the City of Vancouver.

Option 6 - Retrofitting a non-fire fighting vessel donated by Port Metro Vancouver (PMV).

Port Metro Vancouver has committed to purchase Marine Fire Response Services from the City of Vancouver. They are satisfied that their contribution to the Vancouver program covers their obligation for fire response for the whole Vancouver harbour including waterfront municipalities

4 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 119 Attachment 9.2 Report/Recommendation to Council Marine Fire Response Options January 6, 2015

within the harbour. Therefore they will not be offering support to any other individual municipality including the donation of one of their used vessels to the City of Port Moody.

Other Options THAT the report from the Fire-Rescue Department dated January 6, 2015 regarding Marine Fire Response Options be received for information.

Financial Implications Costs related to the purchase of the different marine fire protection models are summarized below. Staff recommends Option #1 given the significant costs related with operating a City owned boat, and the longer response times from private agencies. The recommendation is based on a compromise of reasonable response time and reasonable cost.

Estimated Estimated Estimated Purchase or Annual Response Service Option Start Up Operating Time Cost Costs (minutes) 1. Purchase service from VFRS (recommended) n/a $40,000 30

2. PMFR Fire Boat (not shared with PMPD) $300,000 $72,000 12

3. PMFR and PMPD Shared Boat $372,000 $90,000 12

4. Seaspan Marine Tugboat Response $50,000 $35,000 +60

5. No Fire Boat Service (pay as you use) © $0 $0 45/+60

O Call-out fee for VFRS Fire Boat is $60,000 for 4 hours, and $6,000 per hour beyond 4 hours. Call-out fee for Seaspan Marine is $2,500 per hour.

Communications / Civic Engagement External stakeholders should be informed of changes in marine fire protection in the Port Moody Harbour; however, these changes may not be implemented until 2016.

Council Strategic Plan Objectives The replacement of the current consortium marine fire protection model with long term marine fire protection capabilities is consistent with Council's 2012 Strategic Plan Objectives of Planning for the Future and Excellence in Service Delivery.

THAT Bylaw No. 3001 be read a second time.

THAT Bylaw No. 3001 be referred to the following agencies for comments:

• City of Burnaby, City of Coquitlam, Village of Anmore, Village of Belcarra • First Nations including Musqueam Nation, Kwikwetlem First Nation, Sto:lo Nation, Sto:lo Tribal Council, Skawahlook First Nation, Soowahlie First Nation, Seabird Island Band, Shxw'owhamel First Nation, Lyackson First Nation, Penelakut Tribe, Hul'qumi'num Treaty Group, Stz'uminus First Nation, Cowichan Tribes, Halalt First Nation, Lake Cowichan First Nation, Squamish Nation, Tsleii-Waututh Nation and Katsie First Nation • School District 43 • Translink • Port Metro Vancouver • BC Ministry of Environment • Fisheries and Oceans Canada

Background Official Community Plan (OCP) Bylaw No. 2955 received Public Hearing on April22, 2014. A required component of the OCP is a regional context statement (RCS) which identifies the relationship between the OCP and Metro Vancouver's Regional Growth Strategy Metro 2040 (RGS) and outlines how the OCP is consistent or will be made consistent with the RGS over

#296988 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 148 Attachment 9.3 Report/Recommendation to Council Proposed Amendments to Official Community Plan Bylaw No. 2955 February 2, 2015

time. One of the key components of this relationship is consistency between local and regional land use designations.

Section 866(1) of the Local Government Act requires that the OCP include an RCS that is accepted by the applicable regional district, in this case Metro Vancouver. On October 14, 2014 Council adopted OCP Bylaw 2955. In response, on November 13, 2014 Metro filed a petition to quash the new OCP bylaw on the basis that it did not meet legislative requirements to have the RCS accepted prior to final OCP adoption. At the request of the City, Metro agreed to extend the typical 21 day response period for the petition to March 31, 2015 to allow the City time to resolve the outstanding matters around the RCS.

At its meeting on January 27, 2015, Council discussed the current situation and a timeline and process proposed by staff to address Metro Vancouver's concerns. Following discussion, the following motion was passed:

THAT staff be directed to prepare amendments to Official Community Plan Bylaw No. 2955 and the associated Regional Context Statement therein to address the inconsistencies identified by Metro Vancouver for Council's consideration as recommended in the report dated January 19, 2015 from Development Services - Planning Division regarding Official Community Plan - Next Steps.

Discussion Metro Vancouver staff have outlined the outstanding inconsistencies between the City's RCS and the RGS. The primary points of conflict and concern are the inconsistencies between the land use designations for the Andres Wines site and the Mill and Timber site in the City's new OCP and the Industrial designations for these sites in the RGS. Metro Vancouver staff have also requested that employment projections within the RCS be revisited. In addition to these items, there are a number of other minor mapping inconsistencies that are more housekeeping in nature. Amendments that respond to these concerns are included in proposed Amendment Bylaw No. 2955 included as Attachment 1 and summarized in the sections below:

Changing the Land Use Designation for the Mill and Timber Site to "General Industrial" • Amending OCP Map 1 - Overall Land Use to show the Mill and Timber site as "General Industrial"- the OCP Special Study Area overlay remains unchanged • Amending OCP Map 11 - Evergreen Line Sub-Areas by removing the colour overlay on the Mill and Timber site which had indicated a change in land use • Removing the Oceanfront District land use designation from Chapter 4: Overall Land Use Strategy • Amending RCS Map Schedule 1: Regional Land Use Designations (Appendix 1) to show the Mill and Timber site as "Industrial" -the RGS Special Study Area overlay remains unchanged

Attachment 3 includes page excerpts from the OCP showing all of the proposed text changes in the context of the sections in which they appear in the Plan.

Other Options THAT Bylaw No. 3001 not be given First and Second Reading.

Financial Implications Proceeding with a Public Hearing process for Bylaw No. 3001 will involve the costs associated with advertising. These costs will be accommodated by the Development Services operating budget. Failure to address Metro Vancouver's outstanding concerns prior to the March 31 51 deadline may result in further legal action by Metro Vancouver with associated legal cost implications for the City.

Communications I Civic Engagement Should this proposed amendment proceed to Public Hearing as recommended by staff, it will be advertised in the local newspaper in accordance with the Development Approval Procedures Bylaw and the Local Government Act.

As well, property owners that will be directly affected by the proposed land use amendments to the OCP will be specifically notified and engaged in a consultation process as part of this process.

As outlined in Section 879 of the Local Government Act, Council is required to specifically consider whether consultation is required with: • The Greater Vancouver Regional District; • The Council of municipalities adjacent to the area covered by the plan (City of Burnaby, City of Coquitlam, Village of Anmore and Village of Belcarra); • First Nations including Musqueam Nation, Kwikwetlem First Nation, Sto:lo Nation, Sto:lo Tribal Council, Skawahlook First Nation, Soowahlie First Nation, Seabird Island Band, Shxw'owhamel First Nation, Lyackson First Nation, Penelakut Tribe, Hul'qumi'num Treaty Group, Stz'uminus First Nation, Cowichan Tribes, Halalt First Nation, Lake Cowichan First Nation, Squamish Nation, Tsleii-Waututh Nation and Katsie First Nation • School District 43; • Translink; • Port Metro· Vancouver; • BC Ministry of Environment; • Fisheries and Oceans Canada.

Typically this consultation involves referral of the OCP Amendment Bylaw to identified governments/agencies seeking comments within a 30 day consultation period. Staff are recommending that these agencies all be consulted for the typical period.

Council Strategic Plan Objectives The OCP update process has been consistent with the goals of Planning for the Future and Engaging the Community highlighted within the 2012 Port Moody Council Strategic Plan.

An updated Official Community Plan will provide policies to guide the long term future of the City of Port Moody regarding land use.

In an effort to reduce the amount of energy consumed in Among other objectives, a complete community involves public buildings, the City of Port Moody has adopted a Energy achieving a balance between the number of employment and Green House Gas Management Corporate Action Plan opportunities and the number of employed residents within to retrofit existing facilities to achieve better energy efficiency. a municipality. In general terms, the ultimate goal is to achieve New facilities such as the Public Safety Building have a 1:1 ratio of jobs to employed residents. The 2011 Census incorporated alternative energy sources such as geothermal results show that the total number of jobs in Port Moody energy. On a community wide level, the City is embarking was 7315.

The resulting jobs to energy consumption levels and set targets for energy reduction employed residents ratio of 0.21 rema ins largely unchanged in new and existing buildings. from 2006 due to increases in both jobs and population during this period. 2.4 SOCIAL TRENDS To help increase the number of employment opportunities in Port Moody, the City continues to promote developments that 2.4.1 HOUSING AFFORDABILITY generate loca l jobs and integrate residential areas with retail and other forms of commercial space. In order to encourage Housing affordability continues to be one of the key challenges residents to seek employment within their own community, facing municipalities in Metro Vancouver as housing prices climb economic development strategies also need to promote jobs throughout the region. In 2013, the Metro Vancouver average that are reflective of the resident labour force. To minimize the house price was 9.5 times the median household income. This loss of existing employment opportunities, land use policies is significantly above the national average of 4.7 making Metro need to ensure that redevelopment of existing industrial areas Vancouver housing the least affordable in Canada. Low vacancy continues to integrate intensive employment generating uses. rates (l ess than 3%) have also made it increasingly difficult to find rental accommodation. This trend is expected to continue as new rental supply remains very limited.

The incidence of homelessness continues to be a concern, not only on a broader regional basis, but also increasingly more locally within the Tri-Cities. Efforts to address homelessness and affordable housing at a local leve l is the focus of the Tri-Cities Homelessness and Housing Task Group.

The Metro Vancouver Affordable Housing Strategy adopted in November 2007 outlines a number of actions which could be adopted at both regional and municipal levels to expand housing choice and affordability in the region. To address the affordability challenge, several municipalities in the region, including Port Moody, have been working on innovative approaches to address this issue including affordable housing reserve funds and support for affordable housing types such as secondary suites, laneway housing and live/work housing types. To adequately address this issue, however, support from both provincial and federal governments is critical.

In order to faci litate a better match between jobs and the sector and the Fraser Valley has led to increasing volumes of skills of employed residents, land use policies and development traffic for residents and commuters and pressure for improved bylaws need to support employment opportunities in these sectors. transit and roadways. Given its location in the region, Port Moody has long experienced the impacts of traditional and historical commuting patterns as traffic passes through its 2.5 TR AN SP ORTATION OPTIONS borders en route to points east and west.

The Evergreen Rapid Transit Line is expected to be completed in 2016 connecting Coquitlam and Port Moody to the existing M illennium Li ne. Studies are also underway to determine how the Murray-Clarke Corridor should evolve to serve the future transportation needs oft he community and region. Both of these projects will help support the high density residential and commercial development in Inlet Centre and stimulate redevelopment in other parts of the City, particularly Moody Centre.

There is also a need to continue to promote alternative forms of transportation including walking and cycling through land use policies that support an integrated bicycle and pedestrian trail system and the development of complete, compact communities that reduce reliance on private automobiles. Transportation is intricately tied to land use and the economy. It is necessary for the efficient movement of goods and people and strongly influences land use decisions on both a regional and local level.

City of Port Moody Report/Recommendation to Council

File No. 01-0530-01/2015

Submitted by: Councillor Diana Dilworth

Subject: Transparency in Reporting of Council Expenses

Purpose / Introduction To provide Council with background information related to a notice of motion put forward by Councillor Dilworth regarding increased transparency in reporting of council expenses.

Recommended Resolutions

WHEREAS transparency of where and how tax dollars are spent is a priority defined within the City's Long Term Strategic Financial Plan;

AND WHEREAS the formal Schedule of Council Remuneration and Expenses must be forwarded to the Province of British Columbia by June 30th of each year and made available to the public before that date;

AND WHEREAS all levels of government are moving to a higher level of transparency related to elected officials expenditures;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the annual Schedule of Council Remuneration and expenses be posted to the City's website on an annual basis;

AND THAT detailed travel and expense claims be posted to the City's website on a quarterly basis.

Background At the January 27, 2015 Regular Council Meeting, Councillor Dilworth introduced a Notice of Motion in regards to enhanced transparency and accountability of Council's expense claim reporting. The motion, as presented, is identified above.

Discussion In May 2014, the City of Port Moody posted members of Council's expense claims, as submitted, for the first time. Staff was asked if this was a practice that would be repeated on an annual basis and it was noted that specific Council direction was required in this regard.

EDMS-#297620-v1-RTC_-_TransparencyJn_Reporting_of_Council_Expenses_-_2015_02_03 1 RC - Agenda - 2015 02 10 172 Attachment 9.4 Report/Recommendation to Council Transparency in Reporting of Council Expenses February 3, 2015

All levels of government appear to be moving to a higher level of transparency related to the travel and expense expenditures incurred by elected officials.

Since 2014, the Government of Canada requires the federal Members of Parliament (MP) to report on a quarterly basis, detailing expenditures related to their office budgets, travel expenses, hospitality and gifts, amongst other categories. This reporting is governed by the federal Members' Allowances and Sen/ices Manual. www.parl.qc.ca/smartweb/mas/Document.aspx?Lanquaqe=E&sbdid=1bba0e0d-2c68-4838-8ff1- 7ee63f452a0c

Since 2013, the Government of British Columbia requires the provincial Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) to report on a quarterly basis, detailing expenditures related to their office budgets, travel expenses, hospitality and gifts, amongst other categories. This information is also reported in the Government's annual Public Accounts of SC. www.fin.gov.bc.ca/ocq/pa/13 14/CRF%20Detailed%20Scheds%20of%20Pavments%2013- 14.pdf#page=9&view=Fit

Subsequently, many local government agencies are following this trend and making efforts to an enhanced and increased level of transparency in reporting. While local governments are required to submit Council remuneration and expense to the Province of BC on an annual basis and make the information public, this has often meant printing the information out and having it available if members of the public ask for it.

Given the advancements of technology, and the public's expectation of having timely and convenient access to public information, the City of Port Moody has an opportunity to commit, proactively, to a higher level of transparency in regards to the expenditures incurred and claimed by its elected officials.

Other Options THAT the report from Councillor Diana Dilworth dated February 3, 2015 regarding Transparency in Reporting of Council Expenses be received for information.

Financial Implications Staff time will be required to translate the submitted travel and expense claims submitted by members of Council to a format suitable for posting to the City's website. No additional financial implications are anticipated.

Communications / Civic Engagement A move to provide additional information to residents on the expenditure of tax dollars via the City's website would be indicative of a commitment by Council to a higher level of accountability, and a move to further engage the community on financial matters.

Council Strategic Plan Objectives The Excellence in Service Delivery goal, as identified within the 2012 Port Moody City Council Strategic Plan, includes a goal related to the city being cognizant of and accountable for fiscal responsibility in providing services to our community.

The City's recently public Long Term Strategic Financial Framework (LTSFF) document references the local government's commitment to the principle of transparency.

City of Port Moody Report/Recommendation to Council

Date: February 2,2015 File No. 0630-01

Submitted by: Councillor Rick Glumac

Subject: Declaration of the Right to a Healthy Environment

Purpose / Introduction To seek Council endorsement of the Declaration of the Right to a Healthy Environment.

Recommended Resolutions

THAT the Declaration of the Right to a Healthy Environment be endorsed as recommended in the report dated February 2, 2015 from Councillor Rick Glumac regarding Declaration of the Right to a Healthy Environment;

AND THAT this declaration be forwarded to the Lower Mainland Local Government Association, the Union of BC Municipalities, the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and member local governments, requesting favourable consideration by local councils and by delegates at the 2015 annual general meetings of these associations.

Background Over 100 nations recognize the constitutional right to a healthy environment. Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms does not currently recognize this right but momentum is building across the country at the municipal level. Already Richmond, Victoria, and Vancouver have passed the declaration as well as cities as far away as Yellowknife and Montreal. The David Suzuki foundation is also working with over 40 other municipalities as part of their Blue Dot campaign. As stated on the bluedot.ca website: "Community by community, this movement will inspire decision-makers across our provinces and territories to take notice. With so many communities calling for action from all levels of government, the next step is to have our provinces follow suit and pass environmental bills of rights. Cities come together to change a province. Provinces come together to change a nation. When seven out of 10 provinces representing more than 50 per cent of the Canadian population have recognized our right to a healthy environment we turn toward the ultimate goal: amending the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms."

Discussion According to a recent poll by McAllister Opinion Research, 9 out of 10 Canadians are concerned about the impact of environmental degradation on their health and the health of their children. Preventable environmental hazards are estimated to contribute up to 1.5 million hospital days in Canada annually due to cardiovascular disease, respiratory illness, cancer, and birth defects

alone. Although environmental laws have been weakening in recent years at the federal level, Municipal governments still have several mechanisms through bylaws and policies to protect their residents from environmental harm and to promote a healthy and sustainable community.

Indeed Port Moody has been a leader in many environmental and health related areas including: banning cosmetic pesticides, banning shark fin soup, declaring the banning of tanning beds for children under 18 (superseded by a provincial ban), leading the province in recycling diversion, and protecting significant forested and natural areas as parks. This declaration is in many ways a formalization of the good work that the city has already been doing and will help promote environmental leadership to many municipalities across the country.

Attachment 1 lists answers to a number of questions related to this campaign. Attachment 2 is the proposed Declaration of the Right to a Healthy Environment.

Other Options THAT the report dated February 2, 2015 from Councillor Rick Glumac regarding Declaration of the Right to a Healthy Environment be received for information.

Financial Implications There are no anticipated costs above normal City operations.

Communications / Civic Engagement Objectives and timelines, as outlined in the declaration, can be determined in coordination with the city's Environmental Protection Committee. Once determined these objectives could be shared publicly on the city's website for feedback.

Council Strategic Plan Objectives This declaration relates to the Planning for the Future goal of the 2012 Council Strategic Plan.

Municipal Declaration of Environmental Rights — faqs

What are environmental rights? Just as Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees us freedom of expression and protects us from discrimination, environmental rights would ensure that our laws and policies protect the basic elements of our survival, such as clean air, safe water and unpolluted land. Over the past 50 years, the right to a healthy environment has gained recognition faster than any other human right. Today, Canada is among a minority of countries that does not yet to recognize the right to a healthy environment.

Is the environment a municipal issue? Municipal governments make decisions that affect transportation, housing density, waste disposal and other issues related to the quality of the environment. Local governments also have the power to pass bylaws to protect residents from environmental harm. For example, in 1991, the Municipality of Hudson, Quebec, passed a bylaw to restrict the use of pesticides. Since then, communities across Canada have considered passing pesticide restrictions to protect the health of residents.

What is a municipal declaration of environmental rights? Even though our national Constitution does not formally recognize environment rights, local governments can introduce declarations of environmental rights to show their support for residents' rights to clean air, water and safe food. Declarations are also a commitment by municipalities to address local environmental concerns. Municipal declarations also have the power to draw attention to the Canadian Constitution's silence on environmental issues.

What would a declaration of environmental rights mean in my community? A municipal declaration of environmental rights is a commitment to decision-making principles that will protect, fulfill and promote the right to a healthy environment. A community's specific declaration might include a commitment to use the best and latest available science to ensure that the right to a healthy environment is always considered when decisions are made. A declaration can also include a commitment to set clear environmental objectives and targets for air pollution or other issues of relevance to the community. Finally, a declaration of environmental rights can ensure accountability through regular assessment and public reporting of the municipality's progress on meeting its sustainability objectives.

Will municipal declarations support environmental rights for all Canadians? Large-scale social change starts in our own backyards. As a growing movement of Canadians calls upon local communities to pass municipal declarations respecting people's right to live in a healthy environment, decision-makers across all provinces and territories will take notice. This will put pressure on provinces to follow suit and pass environmental bills of rights, as some provinces, including Ontario and Quebec, have already done. While these bills do not have the same force as a Charter right, they send a strong signal that Canadians are ready for change. When seven out of 10 provinces representing more than 50 per cent of the Canadian population have recognized our right to a healthy environment we turn toward the ultimate goal: adding environmental rights to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

How can I support a declaration in my community? Canadians from coast to coast to coast are already leading grassroots campaigns to urge their local communities to make declarations of support for environmental rights.

January 15, 2015 Mr. Mike Clay Mayor City of Port Moody PO Box 36 100 Newpoti Dr Port Moody, BC V3H 3E1 Dear Mr. Clay, Re: Request for Support to Save Canada Post Over a year ago, Canada Post Corporation announced a plan to change public postal service as we know it, and the government endorsed tllis plan. As a result, the corporation has dramatically hiked postage rates and is planning on eliminating door·to-door delivery, closing and downsizing post offices, reducing post office hours, and destroyjng thousands of decent jobs in communities throughout our counhy These major changes will be bad tor seniors, people with mobility issues, charities, small businesses and many other people who rely on public postal service. The Canadian Union of Postal Workers wants the fed eral government to reverse the Canada Post plan, and to look instead for ways to increase service and revenues in areas like postal bankjng, as other postal administrations have done. At the very least, we think the government should properl y consult with the public about what kind of postal service they need before allowing Canada Post to make such major changes. CUPW has attached a fact sheet with more information about Canada Post's plan. The union has also attached a resoJution that it would like your municipality to consider passing. To date, over 400 municipalities and municipal organizations have passed resolutions opposing Canada Post plan for cuts, or calling for a halt to door-to-door delivery cuts until there is proper consultation. CUPW hopes you will think about joining and building on these efforts by passing our or your own resolution. Thank you very much for considering this request. Thanks as well if your municipality passed an earlier resolution in support of postal banking or improving the Canadian Postal Service Charter. If you would like an electronic version of the resolution, please contact Brigitte !Gassen at [email protected]. Please call me at 613-236-7238 if you have any questions or concerns.

Linda Martin then asked if any other trustees were interested in serving as the Library Board's representative on the Arts and Culture Committee for 2015.

His Worship Mike Clay Mayor City of Port Moody 100 Newport Drive Port Moody, British Columbia V3H 3E1

Dear Mayor Clay:

Thank you for your correspondence of November 25, 2014, regarding the Wastewater Systems Effluent Regulations (WSER) and federal investments in wastewater infrastructure.

I am very proud that our Government has delivered the New Building Canada Plan (NBCP) to help finance the construction, rehabilitation and enhancement of infrastructure across Canada. The Plan includes over $53 billion for provincial, territorial and municipal infrastructure over 10 years. Combined with investments in federal infrastructure and First Nations' infrastructure, total federal spending for infrastructure will reach $70 billion over the next decade. This is the largest and longest federal investment in Canadian history.

Of the $53 billion under the NBCP, $47 billion consists of new funding for provincial, territorial and municipal infrastructure, starting in 2014-15, through three key funds:

The Community Improvement Fund: $32.2 billion over 10 years consisting of an indexed Gas Tax Fund and the incremental Goods and Services Tax Rebate for municipalities to build roads, public transit, water and wastewater systems, recreational facilities and other community infrastructure across Canada.

The New Building Canada Fund: $14 billion over 10 years in support of major economic infrastructure projects of national, regional and local significance, including $1 billion in funding dedicated to municipalities with fewer than 100,000 residents through the Small Communities Fund.

A renewed P3 Canada Fund: $1.25 billion over 5 years to continue supporting innovative ways to build infrastructure projects faster and provide better value for Canadian taxpayers through public-private partnerships.

- 2-

I am pleased to inform you that wastewater infrastructure is eligible for funding under all components of the NBCP. You can find more information about our programs at www .infrastructure.gc.ca.

I would also note that wastewater infrastructure has been an eligible funding category under several of Infrastructure Canada's previous and existing funding programs. Indeed, since 2006, the federal government has committed approximately $2.1 billion to wastewater infrastructure across Canada. In addition, since 2006, municipalities have invested almost $811 million of the federal Gas Tax Fund towards wastewater projects. Going forward, our Government will continue to provide funding for important improvements to wastewater treatment through all components of the NBCP.

If your officials have any questions or require clarification on any aspect of the NBCP, they should contact Jeff Moore, Assistant Deputy Minister, Policy and Communications, Infrastructure Canada, at [email protected].

As always, I look forward to ongoing collaboration with the City of Port Moody as we continue to make record investments in world-class infrastructure that supports job creation, economic growth and a high quality of life for Canadians in every community across Canada.

Yours sincerely,

The Honourable Denis Lebel, P.C., M.P. Minister of Infrastructure, Communities and Intergovernmental Affairs Infrastructure Canada Suite 1100, 180 Kent Street Ottawa, Ontario K1P 086

Dear Minister Lebel:

Re: Support for a New Long-term Dedicated Fund for Wastewater Treatment Upgrades

The new federal Wastewater Systems Effluent Regulations establish national standards that will require nearly one quarter of all wastewater treatment systems in Canada to be substantially retrofitted or replaced.

The City of Port Moody supports the federal government's goal of protecting Canadian waters. Municipalities across Canada want to partner with the federal government to ensure that these new federal regulations can be effectively implemented.

A conservative estimate by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) shows that meeting the regulations will require capital expenditures in excess of $18 billion dollars, with at least $3.4 billion of those c_9sts being incurred before 2020.

While wastewater treatment is an eligible category under the New Building Canada Fund, this funding mechanism alone will not be sufficient to enable municipalities to comply with the new regulations without cancelling other local infrastructure priorities that are critical to sustained economic growth and job creation, or unfairly increasing property taxes and utility rates on local taxpayers.

As an example, the City of Port Moody is a member of Metro Vancouver's Greater Vancouver Sewerage and Drainage District, which has a 100-year history of providing regional-scale liquid waste management services to the many municipalities that comprise Metro Vancouver, the regional government for the greater Vancouver area. The Lions Gate Secondary Wastewater Treatment Plant is a new projeot that is mandated under the Wastewater Systems Effluent Regulations, and is wholeheartedly supported by the municipal members of the Greater Vancouver Sewerage and Drainage District. Metro Vancouver has been actively pursuing Building Canada Fund support for the plant from both the federal and provincial governments for a number of years now, but given the estimated $700 million cost of this project, the allocation of a federal contribution from the New Building Canada allotment for BC would mean reduced funding for other municipal infrastructure priorities in BC.

The City of Port Moody therefore joins FCM in calling for a new long-term dedicated federal fund matched by local and provincial governments to assist communities with the capital cost of rebuilding their wastewater systems.

FCM together with communities across Canada affected by the Wastewater Systems Effluent Regulations, look forward to partnering with your government to deliver jobs, economic prosperity, and a clean environment for all Canadians.

Yours truly,

Mike Clay Mayor
