An Evacuation Alert was issued on May 21, 2017 for properties along the lakeshore. The Okanagan Indian Band Emergency Operations Centre is working to monitor the situation and protect public safety. More than 500 Band members and 2,000 lakeshore properties and cabins are potentially threatened by localized flooding.

Mayor Jackson advised that Delta is providing much needed support for the emergency effort. Last week, staff from the Engineering Operations Department attended the Emergency Operations Centre near Vernon and on May 30, 2017 replacement emergency planning staff will be heading out, and taking extra supplies of personal protective equipment. Delta is fortunate to have some highly skilled and trained staff who have extensive experience in emergency management and public safety. During emergency situations such as this, it is heartening to see how people and communities come together, no questions asked, to get the job of protecting people, homes and property done. Delta is proud to offer support, community to community, during this challenging time. Mayor Jackson thanked all the staff who have volunteered their time and energy to help.

B. DELEGATIONS / PRESENTATIONS Mayors’ Council 10- Presentation regarding Mayors’ Council 10-Year Vision - Phase Year Vision One and Phase Two Plans and Public Education and Outreach (B.01) Campaign. Delegation: . Mike Buda, Executive Director, Mayors’ Council Secretariat . Sarah Ross, Director, System Planning Mr. Buda and Ms. Ross jointly gave a PowerPoint presentation (On File) providing an update on the Mayors’ Council 10-Year Vision, an overview of the Phase One and Phase Two Plans and Public Education and Outreach Campaign. In the course of the update and overview, and in response to queries from Council, Mr. Buda and Ms. Ross noted:  The 10-Year Vision, adopted by the Mayors Council in 2014 is the regional blueprint for multimodal transportation investments.  A three-phased investment plan approach was developed for implementing the 10-Year Vision. The Phase One Investment Plan, approved in November 2016, has matched provincial and federal funding.  The Phase One Plan will improve transportation across the entire region and address overcrowding by increasing the service and trip frequency in areas as needed.

Regular Meeting – May 29, 2017 323  Phase One of the 2017 Investment Plan includes: - A 10 percent increase in bus service hours across the region. - An 11 percent increase in bus service hours for Delta and the Tsawwassen First Nation for 2017, 2018 and 2019. This increase encompasses all areas of Delta. - Increased frequency for the 601 bus with service runs every 20 minutes. - Increased frequency for the 301 bus with service runs every 15 mins. - A B-Line Study for the high demand Scott Road corridor to prepare for implementation of the B-Line under Phase Two. - A 15 percent expansion of HandyDART services over three years, half of which will be rolled out in 2017 with a total of 171 trips per year projected by 2019. - 22 new cars on the and Expo Line for Delta residents using these services. - An investment in cycling and walking projects to connect users to transit service with $650,000 in funding earmarked for Delta over and above the $2.4 million provided to support road network operations.  The second phase of the Southwest Area Transport Plan is underway.  Phase Two of the Investment Plan is being developed with municipal input and will be brought forward in early 2018.  Following up on the provincial election, a 90-Day Action Plan was developed for transit and transportation priorities which includes: - Seeking support from political parties to approve one- third provincial funding for the full scope of the Patullo Bridge Replacement Project and establishing a toll revenue replacement agreement by July 2017. - Confirming a 40 percent provincial funding share by September 2017 for the remaining transit and transportation projects under the 10-Year Vision, including matching $2.2 billion in federal funding for rapid transit to put BC first in line for federal transit funding toward the South of Fraser LRT and Broadway project. - A $360 million provincial contribution toward the Skytrain Upgrade Project. - Developing a fair regional funding strategy by September 2017 in order to keep the Phase 2 Investment Plan on track.

Regular Meeting – May 29, 2017 324 - Eliminating the referendum requirement for Metro Vancouver transportation projects by September 2017. - Scheduling the authorization of a new development levy for transportation as was approved by the Mayors’ Council in November 2016.  The proposed new bridge to replace the will be built to incorporate light rail, however, a plan for extending the Canada Line to the new bridge was not included in the 10-Year Vision. This option could be considered as part of the Regional Transportation Strategy discussions following the 10-Year Vision and implementation plan.  $42 million has been earmarked for cycling and walking expansion programs. This funding is spread out over three years and some of the funding will be allocated to TransLink owned cycling routes and facilities.  For 2017, $310,000 will be allocated to Delta for walking and cycling projects. The amount earmarked for Delta for 2018 will be provided to Council in a follow up report.  Although the Patullo Bridge Replacement project was approved as a four lane bridge, it is expandable to six lanes should conditions in the future warrant expansion.  The new Patullo Bridge would be a tolled bridge under a regional wide pricing system. An independent Mobility Pricing Commission is being formed to make recommendations to the Mayors’ Council and provincial government on this pricing system.  In 2014, the Patullo Bridge Replacement project was estimated to cost $1 billion. The estimate includes costs for decommissioning the old bridge. TransLink is in the process of reviewing this estimate and an update on the projected cost will be available in June 2017.  The new Patullo Bridge will have 20 percent more capacity, improve connections to the South Fraser Perimeter Road and will be located adjacent to the current bridge.  The George Massey Tunnel Replacement project is a provincial project. Although the 10-Year Vision encompasses assets owned and controlled by TransLink, it does identify ways to leverage other transit projects toward improving transit connections for Delta residents.

Regular Meeting – May 29, 2017 325  The five major bridges owned and controlled by TransLink in the region include the Golden Ears, Patullo, Knight Street, Westham Island and the Canada Line pedestrian/bike bridge. The remaining bridges in the region are owned and controlled municipally, federally or provincially.  The regional transportation network is interconnected and requires planning by all levels of government. The 90-Day Action Plan is key to ensuring the provincial and regional transportation plans are better connected.  Of the $2 billion for the 2017 Investment plan, $1.3 billion is funded from the region and $660,000 funded from the federal and provincial governments.  The 10-Year Vision commits to exploring a fairer and more equitable tolling pricing system. The Mobility Pricing Commission to be established will undertake research and public consultation and develop options and recommendations for consideration by municipalities, the region and province.  Information on a funding strategy for the Patullo Bridge Replacement Project will be provided at the next Mayors’ Council meeting.  The project team in charge of repair work on the Westham Island Bridge will be advised of concerns related to the proposed shut down schedule and its effects on residents and Delta’s agri-tourism industry.

Mayor Jackson noted that the survey regarding Phase 2 of the Southwest Area Transport Plan and ways to improve transportation in Delta is open until June 19, 2017. The link to the survey is available on TransLink’s website and will also be available through Delta’s website.

In response to a Council query, the Director of Engineering noted that TransLink consulted with the Delta Farmers’ Institute (DFI) and Westham Island residents regarding the schedule for repair work on the Westham Island Bridge. No work or closures are scheduled on weekends. The Corporation of Delta, the DFI and Westham Island residents are requesting TransLink schedule the bridge closures in the overnight period to reduce the disruption on the community.

PowerPoint presentation titled, “2017 Spring Freshet Update” Regular Meeting of Council May 29, 2017. (On Table)

Presentation: Steven Lan, Director of Engineering The Director of Engineering gave a PowerPoint presentation (On File) providing an update on the spring freshet/irrigation water supply. During the course of the update and in response to Council queries it was noted that:  The Fraser Basin is 233,000 km2 in size which is nearly same size as the United Kingdom.  The spring freshet typically peaks in late May or June. This timeline is delayed by two weeks in 2017.  The average freshet flows between 8,000 to 10,000 m3/s with historical highs in 1894 recorded at 17,000 m3/s and in 1948 at 15,000 m3/s. In comparison, Niagara Falls flows at 2,800 m3/s.  As of May 15, 2017, the Lower Fraser snow pack was average and the Upper Fraser was slightly below average. A near normal freshet is expected, however staff continue to monitor this due to the late start.  The current flow at the Hope Gauge is approximately 8,500 m3/s.  The snow melt is approximately 22% complete.  The daily river flow at the Hope Gauge was significantly higher than the 2016 daily river flow. Staff continue to monitor the flows and Council will be advised of any significant changes.

Regular Meeting – May 29, 2017 336  The water level measured at the Fraser Mission Gauge is approximately 5 m in height.  Delta is currently in Stage 1 of its Flood Plan involving planning and preparedness. Stage 2, involving heightened monitoring and preparedness, occurs when the Fraser Mission Gauge readings are 6 m or higher. Stage 3 is implemented when there is a reading of 7 m or higher and the public is notified and high risk areas evacuated. At Stage 4 flooding or dike failure would occur and Stage 5 would be recovery.  Delta’s annual dike inspection is underway. All dikes on the Fraser River have been inspected. The inspections of the Boundary Bay dikes are underway.  Over 100,000 sandbags are stored at the Engineering Operations Works yard and approximately 100 concrete lock-blocks are available for use.  Once completed, the results of the water side dike inspections for Annacis Island and Westham Island will be provided to Council. -- Recommendation MOVED By Cllr.
