Re: CN Community Contact Report

Dear Mayor Jackson, Please find enclosed the first edition of the CN Community Contact Report which provides a 2008-09 year over year comparison on the types and number of calls and emails CN's Public Inquiry Line receives from residents across Canada with proximity' concerns. CN is committed to the communities in which we run through. In 2007, we began an active outreach program, the CN Community Networking Plan, which involved members of our Public and Government Affairs team and our operating officers meeting with all levels of government to discuss ways CN could continue contributing to the local and national economies while addressing proximity concerns. The plan is working well, and we are seeing a number of successful resolutions to proximity issues in your communities. Several examples of these resolutions are included in the enclosed edition of the CN Community Contact Report. In addition to the outreach program, CN has a Public Inquiry Line that plays a significant role in the success of our outreach program. The Public Inquiry Line is designed to be the central contact point for the general public with non­ emergency questions or concerns and can be reached by calling 1-888-888- 5909 or via email [email protected].

CN has provided a summary of complaints and enquiries received from the general public in . relation to its rail operations. Statistics are provided for the whole of Canada, for British Columbia and for the Metro Vancouver area, as well as a comparison with the previous year. The Public Inquiry Line receives thousands of calls and emails every year dealing with a variety of topics from blocked crossings to noise issues and property maintenance. eN will continue to strengthen our relationships with you and your communities and look forward to speaking with you should you have any questions regarding our outreach program or would like to request a meeting to discuss any specific issues of concern.

Regards,

Kelli Svendsen

Page 2 How complaints are handled , The Public Inquiry Line maintains a list of contacts in various eN functions and when staff cannot answer a question or concern directly, a detailed email is forwarded to the applicable department or departments' contacts. The contacts either manage the file and respond directly to the caller if this is appropriate, or provide information back to the Public Inquiry Line for a response. In either case, Public Affairs managers are informed regarding the resolution or outstanding issue.

Calls or emails relating to proximity concerns are forwarded to the appropriate field contacts, as well as other functions, for example: Law, Real Estate, and Engineering, depending on the specifics of the concern. This ensures all relevant eN departments are made aware of the concern and are able to provide feedback or information as required for a response. Documenting inquiries, concerns and complaints In 2007, a database was designed and then implemented for the Public Inquiry Line to track calls as a means to identify trends or areas of concern.

This report provides a 2008 - 2009 year over year comparison on types and number of calls in four categories-blocked crossing, crossings, environment and safety-for Canada and by province. The 'provincial reports include a category breakdown, top types of calls, a general summary, dties with high call levels and success stories.

The chart on page 2 shows a year over year comparison for Canada of the number of calls logged relating to the four categories between the periods January through December 2008 and 2009.

Note: A small number of the calls/emails received related to other railways and were redirected to (P or others, however, these numbers are included in totals.

Tehama County Board of Supervisors are taking steps to ensure there's no deja vu of the Transmission Agency of Northern California's plans to build miles of power lines through the county.

On Tuesday, the supervisors will consider a rezone ordinance that would require utility providers to obtain the board's approval for a use permit if they want to build high voltage power lines in the area.

A public hearing will be held at about 10:30 a.m. before the board makes a decision.

The board requested for a rezone ordinance to address these type of projects because of the TANC project, said Bob Halpin, Tehama County Planner II.

Supervisors want to make sure they have a procedure to follow in dealing with such issues, in case something like TANC tries to come through again. They do not want the projects to happen without their knowledge and approval. .

In 2009, TANC revealed plans to build 600 miles of power lines across the state, including areas in Tehama and surrounding counties. The project failed after a public uproar caused project backers to pull out.

In January 2009, the Delta School District hired a consultant to monitor EMF levels at the South Delta Secondary School on a monthly basis for six months. EMF levels directly under the transmission lines averaged 22.5 milligauss. Average readings under the old lines were 40 milligauss. Use permits to build power lines or electrical substations with the capacity to convey over 100,000 volts or more of electricity would be subject to the board's review and approval, according the draft ordinance.

Shasta and Yolo counties have already passed similar ordinances."

The Delta Early Childhood Development (ECD) Committee is pleased to be able to make this folder available to you. It comes with our hope that you will refer to it when young children and their families are thought of within your sphere of influence.

'15 by 15' was a phrase originally coined by using a target set out in a provincial government document to have 85% of kindergarten children 'ready for school' by the year 2015. This would mean that 15% of the population of children of kindergarten-age would not be 'ready' by that year. Currently, in this province, the total percentage 'not ready' or vulnerable is about 30%. In Delta, the percentage is between 26% and 27%. Both prOVincially and locally, we have a lot of work to do.

Researchers at the Human Early Learning Partnership (HELP) were contracted by the BC Business Council to produce a paper that would advise on what would be needed in order to achieve the target of reducing vulnerability of children entering kindergarten to 15% by 2015. The material enclosed in the folder contains the document produced for the Council and work that has followed from that original assignment.

The Delta ECD Committee is committed to working toward the recommendations contained in the '15 x 15' documents. We are well aware of the fact that we need partners at other levels of the community, and of governments, in order to effect all of the changes that are needed to reach this goal. We, in fact, look forward to any collaborative efforts that interest others. ..

We will be hosting another ED! workshop in the early 2011 and hope that youwill be able to attend. We will send out invitations in December regarding the details.

If you have any questions about the '15 by 15' research, we encourage you to contact the authors whose cards are in the folder.

Executive Summary

The stock of human capital in British Columbia is key to its long-term economic success. This means early child development is a critical issue for business leaders, because the years before age six set in motion factors that will determine the quality of the future labour force. Today, only 71% ofBC children arrive at kindergarten meeting all ofthe developmental benchmarks they need to thrive both now and into the future: 29% are developmentally vulnerable.

While the poor are more statistically likely to be vulnerable, the majority of vulnerable children in BC reside in the more populous middie-class. Earlyvulnerability is a middle-class problem. A rate of child vulnerability above 10% is Unnecessary early vulnerability biologically unnecessary. At three times what it could be, the current vulnerabi­ in Be costs the provincial economy lity rate signals that Be now tolerates a sum ofmoney that is ten times the an unnecessary brain drain that will total provincial debt load. dramatically deplete our future stock of human capital. Economic analyses reveal this depletion will cause BC to forgo 20% in GDP growth over the next 60 years. The economic value of this loss is equivalent to investing $401.5 billion today at a rate of3.S% interest, even after payingforthe social investment required to reduce vulnerability. Unnecessary early vulnerability in Be is thus costing the provincial economy a sum of money that is 10 times the total provincial debt load.

The implication is clear: governments, busi"",ses, bankers and citizens have ten times as much reason to worry about the early child vulnerability debt as we have reason to worry about the fiscal debt. Reducing early vulnerability is therefore necessary for Be to secure its long-term economicfuture, while it will also inject a significant economic stimulus now..

Some may hold out hope that we can compensate for high early vulnerability by increasing investments in the final years of school, in expanding post-secondary education, or in job . skills training for adults. However, human development research warns against this hope because it ignores the genetic and biological reality of the human spedes: the early years represent the unique window in the human life course during which citizens' physical, socio-emotional and cognitive potential are especially malleable to the positive effects of strategic human capital investments. The interaction of nature and nurture "sculpts" the. developing brain and otherbiological systems such that children who do not benefit from optimally nurturing early environments risk genetic adaptations thai will limit theirIife-long well-being and productivity.

The early development research is now so compelling that there is a growing consensus among economists, such as Nobel LaureateJames Heckman, that the most cost-effective human ~apital interventions occur among young children. Heckman12oo8) concludes that "a major refocus of policy is required to capitalize on knowledge about the life cycle of skill and health formation and the importance of the early years in creating inequality in America and in producing skills forthe workforce." / Recognizing the importance of early human capital investments, the Government of British Columbia's (2oo9c) Strategic Plan commits to lowering the provincial rate of early vulnerability to 15% by fiscal year 2.015/16. This 15 by 15 goal is an ambitious but reasonable signpost along the way to our ultimate goal of reducing early child vulnerability to 10% by 2020. Presently, however, 93% of BC neighbourhoods have vulnerability rates that exceed even the intermediate target of 15%. Significant changes across the entire province are therefore required to create broad and equitable access to the conditions that help children and families thrive. The requisite public policy response is a The imlJlicatiol1 is clear: bold one. BC suffers unnecessarily high , . early vulnerability across income classes governments, businesses, bankers . because it is relying on old post-war and citizens have ten times as much thinking to address 21st century social and' to about economic issues. In ,he absence of a system reason worry the early child of early learning and child care services, vulnerability debt as we have reason public policy in BC and much of Canada to worry about the fiscal debt. remains nostalgic for a time when some women stayed home to rear young children while some men served as sale breadwinners on behalf of their families. This nostalgia ignores the current reality: most mothers today are employed, helping to compensate for real dedines in male wages, or in order to stave off persistently high rates of child and family poverty. As mothers allocate more time to employment, households struggle with less family time, in part because fathers have not managed to fill the care void. For men . and women alike, work/life conflict is pervasive irrespective of earnings, and time to care personally is a common casualty.

New policy thinking is therefore in order. International research reveals that the best strategy to reduce early vulnerability is found in comprehensive government policy which supports parents (men as much as women) to synchronize caring and earning. The implications of this research for Be means citizens and businesses must support governments to invest $3 billion annually in the follOWing 15 by 15 Policy FrameworkforOptimal Early Human Development. Half of the $3 billion investment will support families to enjoy more time and resources to care personally, while the other half will strengthen community services.

Time Recommendations: • Build on maternity and parental/eave to enrich the benefit value, and to extend the total duration from 12 to 18 months, reserving additional months for fathers. -

• Build on existing employment standards to support mothers and fathers with children over 18 months to work full-time for pay, but redefine full-time to accommodate shorter annual working hour norms without exacerbating genQ~~ inequalities in the labour market. . . .'

Resource Recommendations Build on income support policies to mitigate poverty among families with children. 15 by 1S: Early Human Capital Investment in BC

Service Recommendations • Build on pregnancy, health and parenting supports to ensure monthly developmental monitoring opportunities for children from birth through age 18 months, as their parents are on leave. • Build on early education and care services to provide a seamless transition for families as the parental leave period ends in order to make quality services for children age 19 months to kindergarten affordable and available on a full- or part-time basis, as parents choose. Build on the work ofloeal Early Child Development (ECD) coalitions in community planningto enhance program coordination between all local services that support families with children from birth to age six. These six recommendations identify the public policy changes required to reap the dramatic· economic returns available from reducing early vulnerability from 29% to 15% by 2015, and to 10% by 2020. Overa 60 year period, the benefits to society outweigh the costs by more than 6/,. Since a 2/1 ratio is a great return on investment, the 6/1 ratio shows thafthe proposed early human capital strategy is a phenomenal investment.

The reality of early human capital development, however, is that population-level improve~ ments generate significant economic growth only after ,hildren work their way through the elementary, secondary and (sometimes) post-secondary education systems to transition into .the labour market. Therefore, it will be '4 years before even the first cohort of children reaping the human capital gains from the proposed 1S by 15 investments will personally contribute dividends to the economy. Clearly, this investment strategy requires patience as a virtue. In response, we propose pOlicy changes that will allow individuals and businesses to recoup a substantial portion of the investment costs in relatively short order: from 33% to 62% of the requisite expenditure during the first electoral cycle; and from 39% to 47% of the expenses over the first three electoral cycles. Given these benefits, the net cost to taxpayers will only be three-quarters of the gross investment. Immediate returns are maximized when policy innovations support the adults who care for the future stock of human capital as much as the children themselves. These adults can benefit now from the policy reforms and thus generate real economic. returns much niore quickly than will human capital investnientsin young children al.one. Short- and medium­ term benefits include: .

• productivity gains from accelerated labour supply, especially among women • productivity gains from reduced absenteeism as a result of improved work/life balance

• health cost savings associated with improved work/lifebalah1: • health cost savings associated with poverty reductions child welfare savings, as fewer children enter the foster care system reductions in crime, and government expenditures onthe justice system • economic stimulus, when invested during an economic recession In short, the 15 by 15 Policy Framework proposes a fundamental shift in how we think about health care and human capital. We recommend shifting from treating illness after the fact, to promoting health from the outset ofthe human life course. The research evidence makes clearthat this shift will accelerate economic growth enormously over the long-term, and that the economic case for the 15 by 15 Policy Framework is solid even in the near- and medium-term. The following paper provides a detailed blueprint for policy reform, and offers HELP's world-renowned monitoring and evaluation capabilities to guide the way.

The private sector, including business, standsto capitalize the most from the economic growth that well-designed family policy will generate. It is therefore time for the Be business community to actively join the call for evidence-based human capital investments which target the life course stage that will pay the greatest return: when parents and communities care for citizens in their early years. Only this bold policy reform will prevent the brain drain that is most threatening to our economy: the future human capital losses that result from high child vulnerability today. IlIi 476 genda A.

By Email to: "George Harvie" . Delta Farmers Institute c/o [email protected]

Dear Councilors And, Members of the Delta Farmers Institute.

Re. agricultural crops losss due to flooded fields.

It is no secret that our local farmers, as did farmers throughout the Fraser Valley, suffered significant financial losses as a consequence of extremely high amounts of rain in the late summer.

It is also no secret that I was pretty vocal in 1995 about the then newly constructed dam on the Chillukthan Slough causing a dangerous situation with the by the backup of water in the drainage system resulting in flooding ofa number of properties along 34B Avenue.

Shortly after this happening, family events resulted in our interests in the area and worrying about water backing up onto property to become of lesser importance.

Recently, the crisis the local farmers have encountered. has brought the overall drainage subject to mind and suggests that this might be an appropriate time to make an assessment of the, perhaps, co-relation of

Staff will respond to the resident, specifically: 1. There is no dam on Chillukthan Slough. 2. Drainage/irrigation levels are adjusted if deemed necessary due to weather conditions. 3. Gateway program has recently finalized a drainage/irrig~tion study which will be implemented over the coming years. undertakings of the past that may have exacerbated the effects oflast summer's weather.

The assessment, in my opinion, should consider amongst others that the Delta Farmers Institute and Delta Council might wish included: 1. The effectiveness if the Mason Drainage system and the Chillukthan Dam in particular and the entire Delta systems in general. 2. The effects of "Laser Leveling" on field drainage and drainage flows and ifthis practise needs some review by the Farming Community. (please note that I am definitely not suggesting that Laser Leveling needs any form of Municipal Bylaw control. More regulation, of any nature, is the last thing this community needs.)

I am appalled that there are NO sidewalks in this area. There is an Esso Station, a couple of tardlock stations, a Tim Horton's, and lots of bUSinesses, container holding areas. There are huge trucks EVE R Y W HER E. When we walk from our cars, parked on the streets, we take our life into our hands EVERY day just trying to get to work. Some businesses in that area have their own parking lots, and I guess that is the reason for it, however, there are some that don't, and it is BEYOND dangerous. You have to have eyes attached to every part of your head not to get hit by something, or someone. The trucks drag and throw up dirt, debris, dust, and any garbage lying on the streets. Meanwhile, you have to watch every angle to try to get across streets without getting killed. It's not feasible to even go for a walk at lunchtime because it just isn't safe, PERIOD.

Tonight I saw a young kid walking on the road, lugging a huge hockey bag and hockey sticks which he could barely carry .... all the while dodging trucks whizzing by, and coming out of driveways. I can NOT believe that it is within the law NOT to have sidewalks in an industrial area!!!!! Everyone at my work is complaining, but obviously, there is nothing we can do. Our company does not have room for staff parking, so we are forced to park on the road IF we can find something. Between fire hydrants, bylaws as to how close to the curb you can park, no parking areas, large trucks parked on the street, it is beyond frustrating. What is a joke is that there IS a sidewalk at the other end of the street where it dead ends?????????????????? (Where it is needed the least, and the companies there have enormous parking lots for their staff!) ..

In my opinion, it was VERY poor planning on the city's part. I am just waiting for someone to get killed. It wouldn't surprise me at all. I just hope it Isn't me!!! ,------, Norma Peddle Sidewalk projects for 2011 have already been indentified for the preliminary2011 ~rD::::,\ Oxu"t- Capital Plan.

On October 6, 2010 I wrote to your municipality to advise that Greyhound Canada Transportation ULC ("Greyhound Canada") had filed an application with the B.C. Passenger Transportation Board for a reduction of bus service between Vancouver and Nanaimo.

For the reasons set out in the enclosed Explanatory Paper dated November 16, 2010, Greyhound Canada has decided to amend its application from one applying for a reduction in minimum frequency to one of abandonment of its licenced inter-city bus route between Vancouver and Nanaimo. A copy of the Public Notice detailing this change is also enclosed.

Should the Passenger Transportation Board approve Greyhound Canada's application, it is the Company's intention to continue to provide daily scheduled bus service between Vancouver and Nanaimo under the connector bus exclusion found in B.C. Passenger Transportation Regulation 266/2004. Under the connector bus exclusion, Greyhound Canada is able to operate scheduled bus service between Vancouver and Nanaimo as many or as few times per day as market conditions dictate.

Should your municipality have any comments regarding this application, please notify the BC Passenger Transportation Board at the address set out in the Public Notice.

Yours sincerely, Greyhound has revised their previous application to reduce service on their Vancouver to Nanaimo route. Greyhound now wants to aband(m their inter­ city bus licence with the BC Passenger Transportation Board due to licensing challenges.

Greyhound Canada Transportation ULC

2010 Application to Abandon Route Q - Vancouver 1 Nanaimo and Replace with Service under Connector Bus Exclusion

EXPLANATORY PAPER

This paper is designed to provide the operating, economic and regulatory basis for the application by Greyhound Canada Transportation ULC ("GCTU'') to amend Application 258-10 from one reducing minimum frequency to one abandoning Route Q of its BC Passenger Transportation Licence between Vancouver and Nanaimo.

Should the BC Passenger Transportation Board ("PT Board") approve the abandonment application, it is GCTU's intention to continue to offer daily scheduled bus service between Vancouver and Nanaimo under the Connector Bus Exclusion in Passenger Transportation Regnlation 266/2004.

I. Average Passenger Loads and Revenue Per Passenger Mile

GeTU's current minimum frequency between Vancouver and Nanaimo is six trips per day in each direction. The schedules to be eliminated are:

(a) Westbound

5122 7.58 $2.39 5124 13.52 $4.25 5126 9.81 $3.09 5128 21.66 $6.82 5130 12.75 $4.02 5134 11.66 . $3.67

1 All figures on average passenger loads and revenue per pas;enger mile are for the 12 month period April 1,2009 to March 31, 2010 (GCTU's fiscal year). 2.

(b) Eastbound

~.~_ 'C ..•·Ay;erage ~,,: ... :. '.' .:.....: . . I'I. .' .·.·.'.. ·R·· ..• ·e·v .. enu.e·. p'.·e'.'r·· .. ·...... :...... SC~~~ule. . ...pass~D.g¢*t()ad .' .... I, .Passe:tigerMil~ 5123 12.31 $3.83 5125 19.24 $6.04 5127 17.97 $5.66 5129 20.36 $6.40. 5131 18.46 $5.81 5135 6.29 $1.98

GCTU's current breakeven revenue per passenger mile on Route Q between Vancouver and Nanaimo is $8.91. The breakeven RPM is higher than on any other route operated by GCTU in BC because each bus that travels on a Be Ferry requires a ferry fare to be paid, in addition to standard GCTU bus operating costs.

II. Background

In GCTU's fiscal year ending March 31,2010, it lost $1,394,780 operating cross water on ferry bus service six times per day in each direction between Vancouver and Nanaimo. The average passenger loads per schedule and revenue per passenger mile are shown above. Passenger loads are not large, and have been dropping in recent years, because GCTU is unable to compete, either fare or frequency wise, with the heavily subsidized public transit bus service operated by TransLink (Downtown Vancouver-Horseshoe Bay) and BC Transit (Departure Bay-Downtown Nanaimo).

Attached as Schedule A is a package of information on Route 257 - TransLink express bus service between Horseshoe Bay and Downtown Vancouver. Extensive schedules are operated seven days/week between these two points. The one way adult fare is $3.75 (no tax) on weekdays up to 6:30 pm and $2.50 (no tax) after 6:30 pm and all day Saturday, Sunday and holidays.

Attached as Schedule B is a package of information on Nanaimo Regional Transit Route 2/2A Hammond Bay/Waldbank to Woodgrove (includes service between downtown Nanaimo and Departure Bay). Extensive schedules are operated between the ferry terminal and downtown Nanaimo seven days/week. The one way adult fare is $2.25 (no tax).

Attached as Schedule C is an extract from the GCTU website showing that GCTU's one way fare between Vancouver and Nanaimo ranges from $15.40 (web purchase) to $20.50. These fares are subject to 12% HST. 3.

In other words, for a passenger travelling between downtown Vancouver and downtown Nanaimo the one way cost by transit ranges from $4.75 to $6.00 (Plus ferry fare) compared with a range of $17.25 to $22.96 (Plus ferry fare) by GCTU.

Because of the significant operating loss being experienced by GCTU on this lane, in the Spring of 2010, GCTU concluded that it had to modify its method of service between Vancouver and Nanaimo. It decided that effective July 12, 2010 four trips daily would operate on a pick and drop basis (i.e. passengers would be driven to the ferry terminal by GCTU, dropped to walk on and off the ferry, picked up at the other side and driven to the respective GCTU depot in Vancouver or Nanaimo). The remaining two schedules in each direction would continue to travel on the ferry.

After GCTU reached the decision to modify its method of service, as a courtesy, it notified both the PT Board and BC Ferries of its intention to commence operating pick and drop service on July 12. On June 8, 2010, the PT Board confirmed GCTU's view that there was no regulatory impediment to its changing its mode of operation, as long as the minimum frequency set out for Route Q in GCTU's PT licence was maintained.

By contrast, BC Ferries advised that it needed time to accommodate GCTU's proposed change in operating procedures at the Horseshoe Bay and Departure Bay Ferry Terminals and requested that GCTU defer its July 12, 2010 start date to the Fall of2010.

GCTU agreed to put off the start date for the operating change. Representatives of GCTU and BC Ferries met on August 10, 2010 to discuss implementation of the operating change. At that meeting GeTU was advised that before it could commence pick and drop service at the two Ferry Terminals it had to agree to, among other things, negotiate a monthly fee for a dedicated bus pick up and drop off parking spot with BC Ferries' parking contractor at Horseshoe Bay (Impark) and BC Ferries' parking contractor at Departure Bay (Robbins).

BC Ferries' representatives at the August 10 meeting acknowledged that GCTU would be required to pay a monthly parking fee at each Ferry Terminal while TransLink (Horseshoe Bay) and BC Transit (Departure Bay) would continue to be charged nothing to pick up and drop off passengers at the two Terminals.

Following the August 10 meeting, GCTU re-evaluated its initial plan to continue operating six schedules per day in each direction between Vancouver and Nanaimo, four trips by way of pick and drop and two on board ferry trips. Instead, it decided to apply to the PT Board to eliminate four of six daily schedules in each direction between Vancouver and Nanaimo.

On September 27, 2010, GCTU filed its application with the BC Passenger Transportation Branch to reduce minimum frequency on Route Q between Vancouver and Nanaimo to two trips per day in each direction from the licenced level of six trips per day in each direction. The application was published in the PT Board weekly bulletin on October 6, 2010 under Number 258-10. 4.

On the same day, GCTU wrote to BC Ferries advising that the application to reduce minimum frequency was being made and that GCTU intended to immediately commence operating pick and drop service on four of six trips each day while the application was being considered by the BC Passenger Transportation Board. GCTU also informed BC Ferries that it was unwilling to pay for bus parking at the two ferry terminals as long as the public sector operators, TransLink and BC Transit, were not being charged for parking.

On September 30, 2010, BC Ferries responded to the GCTU letter. It advised that until BC Ferries and GCTU reached an agreement on, among other things, payment for bus parldng outside the Horseshoe Bay and Departure Bay Ferry Terminals, access by GCTU to the drop-off and pick-up areas of the two Ferry Terminals would be "restricted".

On October 5, 2010, GCTU's first coach of the morning arrived at the Departure Bay Ferry Terminal to find a barricade had been erected to prevent the bus from dropping off and picking up bus passengers in front of the Ferry Terminal passenger building. Instead, the GCTU driver was told that the passengers on his coach had to be dropped off and picked up in the Departure Bay long term parking area, a distance of approximately 400 yards from the passenger building. Further, henceforth, all GCTU buses would have to leave the Ferry Terminal immediately after pick-up or drop-off.

GCTU's Operations Manager for Vancouver Island visited the suggested drop off and pick up location at Departure Bay and determined that it was unsafe for both GCTU buses and GCTU passengers to be dropped off and picked up at the distant location. Accordingly, on October 5, for safety reasons, GCTU ceased operating its four pick and drop schedules while continuing to operate two bus on ferry trips daily in each direction between Vancouver and Nanaimo.

On the same day that GCTU ceased operating its four pick and drop schedules in each direction, the Passenger Transportation Board wrote GCTU to express its "grave concern" about the Company's actions. In the letter, the PT Board went on to indicate that, upon further review, it had concluded that pick and drop service at the two ferry tenninals may not meet the definition of inter-city bus in the Passenger Transportation Act. As a result, it was seriously considering rewriting GCTU's Passenger Transportation Licence to specifically obligate GCTU to operate bus on ferry service on each of its schedules between Vancouver and Nanaimo. The PT Board requested GCTU's comments on this proposed licence change by October IS, 2010.

GCTU provided a response to the PT Board on October 14, 2010. In the letter, GCTU advised that it continued to believe that the PT Board did not have the jurisdiction to require the Company to operate on board ferry service.

On October 21, the PT Board replied as follows:

"In the Board's view Greyhound, under its current terms and conditions of license, is obligated to provide cross ferry service between Vancouver and Nanairno. We have set out our position ... in our correspondence. Therefore, we 5.

will not be issuing amended terms and conditions of license at this time. However, if your client's current application to reduce its minimum route frequency should be approved in whole or in part, amending the terms and (sic) would be an appropriate measure to ensure there is no further misunderstanding or repetition of this disruption of service to the public."

III. Amended Application 258-10

After considering the October 21 letter from the PT Board, GCTU has decided to amend Application 258-10 from a minimnm frequency reduction application to one abandoning Route Q between Vancouver and Nanaimo in its entirety.

Should the PT Board approve the abandonment application, it is GCTU's intention to continue to provide daily scheduled bus service between Vancouver and Nanaimo under the connector bus exclusion found in BC Passenger Transportation Regulation 26612004. Under the connector bus exclusion, GCTU will be able to operate scheduled bus service between Vancouver and Nanaimo, without regulatory oversight by the PT Bo~d, as many or as few times per day as market conditions dictate.

GCTU has reached a written operating understanding with BC Ferries to permit pick and drop scheduled bus service at the Horseshoe Bay and Departure Bay Ferry Terminals.

During the interim period, while the PT Board is considering the Company's amended application 258-10 to abandon Route Q, GCTU plans to operate two on board ferry trips and four pick and drop trips per day in each direction. Six trip per day interim period scheduled bus service in each direction between Vancouver and Nanaimo recommenced on November 15, 2010.

Getting you everywhere you want to go in Metro Vancouver Single Fares

Buying a single fare lets you travel for up to 90 minutes across the Lower Mainland . . You can hop off for errands and then hop back on again. You can travel for one. two or three zones by bus, SeaBus or SkyTrain. Tickets for West Coast Express must be purchased separately as they are priced differently.·

Single Fares

• Buses require exact coin fare. • SkyTrain TVMs accept coins (except pennies) and bills (up to $20). • Debit and credit cards are accepted at most SkyTrain Station TVMs.

Concession Fares

Concession fares apply to children 5 to 13 years old, secondary students ages 14 to 19 with a valid GoCard, seniors 65+ with proof of age and HandyCard holders riding conventional transit. These people can travel at a reduced price.

Please note that concession fares are not valid on HandyDART. Regular adult fares apply on HandyDART regardless of age.

Children 4 years and younger ride for free when accompanied by an adult. CNIB and War Amputee pass holders also ride for free with proof of identity.

*HandyDART uses specially equipped vehicles to carry passengers with physical or cognitive disabilities who are unable to use public transit without assistance. Learn more ...

What Options are Best for You?

Are you a regular transit user? Then a monthly pass can help you save money.

Do you need to make frequent transit trips during one day? A DaYPass ,. providing unlimited transit use may be a better option than single fares. This pass is also useful for people travelling to and from downtown through three zones.

Do you and your colleagues use transit to get to work? The Employer Pass Program could be a good fit for your company.

Are you a high school student? Get a GoCard and pay a low monthly rate for all your trips on transit.

Travelling by transit more than once? I I l3uy a book of Faresaver tickets and save! Learn more ...

Importance: High DEPT: E IVi$ , '-' AT.# iOf.D92-, Comments: J",C1 I'L( 10 Hello Mayor Jackson, lciftdir ,1t Nh"y

Attached are other forward-thinking municipalities in BC who are providing incentive rebates to eco friendly and responsible citizens doing·their part to reduce water waste and reduce overall energy and water usage. Many other cities across Canada also provide incentives to their taxpayers who reduce energy and water waste. We are looking at buying all new low flush toilets and I. would like to know when I can receive similar rebates ( see attached) from Corp of Delta.

Can you also let me know what other rebates Corp of Delta may be providing to taxpayers who are doing their best to conserve energy, water, etc. We are working with LiveSmart BC in hopes to receive the most rebates possible.

I came to Delta city hall engineering department last week and I'was told there are no rebates for any conservation measures.? This does not seem right to me, and I thought I should check with you on what is up . Can you please detail what rebates are available and if indeed there is no water conservation rebate yet, then please tell me when this is going to be in effect for Delta.

Thank you for letting me know as soon as possible. We want to buy the low flush toilets this weekend before the HST kicks in so this is time sensitive.

Engineering staff responded to the resident's inquiry regarding municipal toilet rebate programs by email. Delta offers water conservation education and a number of initiatives promoting efficient water usage, including Rain Barrel, Outdoor Water Saver Kit, or Voluntary Water Metering programs.

U,_ Dear Mayor and Council:

I am very against this proposal and the new taxes to be born by the electorate. TRANSLINK is a cash grab, I do not use, and will not use th~ir services. Why should I pay? Furthermore, from what I hear from people in the Tsawwassen area that uses Translink, it sucks.

The "appointed" Translink people are getting rich at the expense of our pocketbook. Just who are they accountable to is what I would like to know.

Do they know who DELTA is??? NO and NO is my answer to The Evergreen Line.

Dear Mayor Jackson:.lomrnents i'j?~. Ie' II 0 . .. :

I am wriring to you with regards to seeking a win-win solution to the TransLink funding issue. I have written to Mayor Fassbender cc'ed TransLink ceo Ian Jarvis with some solutions for your consideration (see attached).

On the subject of transit funding one of the longstanding issues in our area is transit access to BC Ferries in Tsawwassen. Years ago the 640 Valley-to-Sea delivered customers to Delta, and to Surrey and White Rock via direct connections to 351 at Matthews Exchange. Today taking transit to the ferries is a multi-transfer, long-route or long-walk nightmare, leaving those of us who would rather avoid driving and congestion--and the stiff parking rates at the ferry terminal--no other option except to do so for both personal travel and for picking up family and friends. That adds to traffic, tieups and pollution.

Would Delta in partnership with Surrey and White Rock and with TransLink be interested in sitting down with BC Ferries to discuss cost-effective ways to improve transit service to Tsawwassen? This could include say a satellite park-and-ride for both buses bound for BC Ferries and for the Bridgeport Canada Line say at Matthews; the South Surrey lot is approaching capacity on weekdays.

Yours truly,

RE: Resolving the TransLink funding impasse

Dear Mayor Fassbender:

I am writing to you in your role as Chair, Translink Mayors' Council on Regional Transportation. I am a longtime transportation advocate; I sit on White Rock's infrastructure and transportation committee and am a stakeholder on the TransLink Surrey Rapid Transit study. I work as a business journalist who occasionally covers the transit industry for trade publications including Mass Transit and Metro.

I am deeply concerned about the impasse over TransLink funding. I urge that you support the Moving Forward plan as it would meet the needs ofour region especially for the northeast and for the south ofthe Fraser communities: such as with the much-needed bus route between your city and mine. At the same time I also ask that a way to be found to minimize any unfair financial impacts on individuals and businesses from the plan.

To that end I would like to present several suggestions for your consideration in the hopes of resolving the issue with a collegial 'let's work together/think out ofthe box' problem-solving approach with both TransLink and the Province. These are aimed at financing Moving Forward without overburdening taxpayers: .

1. A real estate transfer tax--a fee applied when property is sold-- to finance new rapid transit and Major Road Network improvements. It could also help payoffcapital borrowing or provide a sinking fund on the other SkyTrain routes and possibly the Canada Line to ensure the infrastructure is kept productive by keeping it in a state of good repair. Only owners ofthe properties in proximity to the rapid transit and roadways-the ones who are the greatest beneficiaries-would pay the tax. It would be based on the added value to properties created by public investments i.e. value-capture

2. Proportion-to-benefit-added property taxation. Would it be feasible to scale the property tax hikes to permit:

(a) More for those located on/near existing and new rapid transit stations and Major Road Network improvements (these owners would receive the most benefits value-wise from the public investments) 2

(b) Less for those not on or near rapid transit or the Major Road Network

3. Municipalities and/or the Province to offer partial offsetting property tax rebates to homeowners if they demonstrate that they use transit, and other commuting means: car/vanpooling, telework, cycling and walking instead of single-occupancy-vehicles. This method would generate added farebox revenues, ridership and higher total benefits (reduced traffic, emissions, accidents, lowered pollution-and-accident-related healthcare, and emergency services costs). It would also encourage home buyers to locate on the Frequent Transit Network, also boosting usage and revenues while limiting costly sprawL

These mechanisms can be used:

(a) The federal transit tax credit (b) The federal home office tax deduction (c) Self-certification that residents/employees cycle and/or walk to work (d) Registration in formal car/vanpools

4. Look at the notion ofsub-area equity i.e. spending money where it is raised. In this fashion the northeast and south of Fraser would get their fare share

5. Consider ifpermitted (or if the Province would approve) an employment tax, but with rebates to employers if they participate in TransLink's Employer Pass program and/or offer and have employees sign up for car/van pools, telework or certify that they cycle or walk to work.

This method would also generate added income and while creating a net increase in ridership and revenues and higher total benefits (reduced traffic, emissions, accidents, lower pollution-and-accident-related healthcare, and emergency services costs). It would encourage employers to locate their businesses on the Frequent Transit Network.

Sound Transit (Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority) has sub-area equity and an employment tax though without the rebates. It could be worth contacting Sound Transit to learn from its experience

I wish you the best ofsuccess. Please feel free to contact me if I can be of assistance.

" - Translink's arguments in favour of smart cards, TYPE: -Ik'f ",lcft ~t~ DEPT N~ with an absolute rebuttal of each... AT. #~ \01h\'S -~ Our customers have told us that convenience is a major factor in choosing(j€J_rfr1P.nslt:~; 1= j-D said CEO Ian Jarvis. "The addition of Translink's smart card fare collection system, i-:::9Cv I with all of its features, will deliver that experience, putting technology at our fingertips q, /-,,(,4:;. that will boost transit efficiency I .-J Replacing passes with smart cards will not in any way boost transit efficiency or convenience. On the 99-B now, two dozen people at a time board without inserting any card. To have everyone wave a smart card in front of a sensor will slow things down. Many passengers won't get close enough for the card to scan, and anyone whose card has not been scanned can merely say, "I presented it, must have missed the sensor". Extending all door loading scores all busy bus routes would enhance convenience, speed service, and save $. Faregate will not. Brussels had turnstiles on their subway system and took them out it the nineties. They now have all door boarding on all vehicles. Fast, Efficient, and Enforced. Look at their experience.

Installation offaregates on SkyTrain provides people with an additional sense ofsec uri tv on the system. The fact is there will be less security. There will be fewer uniformed skytrain personnel on the trains, therefore less security. Any person likely to cause a disturbance can obtain a smart card. The Paris metro is cited in every travel book as the utopia for pick-pockets, but the Paris metro has full height turnstiles ... The only effect the card will have on security for bus passengers is to delay proper coverage by transit police. Eventually it will be understood that the security people required on the buses can easily check for fare payment as well.

Faregates also address some of the problems associated with fare evasion, and will capture additiona/.revenues that are being lost. Row much lost revenue? What tiny fraction of $179 million? It would talce 20,000 fare cheats every day for ten years to recover this money. Ras nobody done the arithmetic on this? Surely Translink realize that it is ludicrous to spend so much to save so little. This does not apply to the bus system. Late night inebriates who spent all their money on alcohol will thumb their noses at a fare card system just as they do to the present fare collection. "I left my pass at home''.. or "I spent all my money". Many of the "fare cheaters" are disadvantaged people. Their monthly welfare cheque is long gone, so no revenue can be obtained from them. They could be denied travel, This could become a social issue, poverty translates into lack of mobility. The result might be free non-peak travel tickets for these people.

Consideration ofTransLink's Supplemental Plans has been deferred to spring 2011. Staff will bring 1 forward a report to Council in January 2011. The new fare collection system will generate valuable data which will help Translink make transit services better and more efficient. There will be ridership statistics by the time of day and the day of the weekfor every route in the system, with will help Translink' 'refine hours of service, schedules, and even the size of the bus used, to match customer demand. There are boarding counters on the buses now. The scheduling group at Gateway refuse to recognize the boarding statistics now available to them outside of peak hours. The extreme example is that between six and eight p.m. Vancouverites are going out for the evening, by bus. Yet from six p.m. onward, the buses are heading to Marpole for the night. It is common to have denied boardings on the 22 going into the city from 6:45 (when the last number 2 says goodnight) onward. Similar problems exist on the Robson/Davie and Victoria routes and probably many others. The 99 is like a Tokyo subway at any hour of the evening. Denied boardings can occur and are particularly common at Cambie street. People leave a $2B subway then are unable to board a bus for the remainder of the trip. The abysmal inadequacy of Sunday service in the Summer on the 22 is enough to ruin a good day at the beach, yet scheduling refuse to run the 2 on Sunday. Sunday service on the 5 and 6 is also inadequate. Special events like the Jericho folk festival, even Lions and Canucks matches are ignored except for skytrain service and a shuttle bus from Renfrew station to Empire Field. No service is added on route 135 from Simon Fraser to downtown. It will give us the ability to transform our whole fare system. The new technology will have the flexibility to allow for new fare options and a greater variety ofprice incentives to reward customer loyalty and attract new people to transit. A difference is only a difference if it makes a difference. Riding transit in the region costs at most 20% of the cost of personal automobile ownership annually: $972, $1320, or $1,812. Even for a car owner, a trip downtown by transit costs no more than the gas for the same trip plus parking. Varying the price of a bus trip between 15 and 25 percent of automobile ownership costs will not affect anybody's decision. The present monthly pass system rewards loyalty. Priced at four commute trips per week, all additional travel is at no extra cost. Funding for the smart card and faregate project, ... is a joint partnership between the Government ofCanada, British Columbia, and Translink. But all three get their funding from the same taxpayer. The Federal money is available for transit, it needent be this useless frill. Spreading a cost over multiple tax budgets doesn't reduce it, only cloaks it. The Canada Line was paid for out of five budgets: Federal, Provincial, Municipal, Translink, and YVR, but by only one taxpayer. There is only one taxpayer!

We love Tsawwassen the way it is, with current growth plans in place from the former plan. It is a great community. We chose to move here 21 years ago from Richmond, where we experienced what fast growth could do to open spaces, more importantly agriculture. We enjoy the mix of living close to nature, agriculture and open spaces.

The main reason for this email is that I understand that you are representing Delta on the upcoming Translink vote asking for more public funding via property taxes.

Please 'no' vote to have our taxes increased for this purpose. My husband and I believe our property taxes dollars should stay in our community and not fund Translink. User fees and taxes on fuel and roads should be increased if necessary.

We use the Canada Line a lot and it is great! We also do our bit for a greener Delta etc. as well. Until Translink, however, can operate its services and system in a more efficient manner, I do not want to fund the gap with my property tax dollars.

Some suggestions in addition to those mentioned above ...... Translink should strongly consider turnstiles at all of its sky train stations, like other cities in the world do. Had these been installed from the get go in 1986, they probably would be in a better financial position.

We also believe that a light rail system, on lines already existing, from the valley to Vancouver is another way to better move people to the city core.

Thank you for your consideration,

Re: Ramsar Wetland of International Significance

DIANNE WATTS Thank you for your letter received by my office on Oct. 8 regarding the City of Delta's development of an application to designate Burns Bog as a Ramsar MAYOR Wetland of International significance. I apologize for my late reply.

BUSINESS The City of Surrey recognizes the values of areas of high biodiversity and p 604 591 4126 ecological significance. The Boundary Bay Wildlife Management Area F 604 591 5175 (WMA) and the Serpentine WMA in Surrey are two areas managed for MAYOR@SURREY,CA ecological" significance as they represent important habitat areas for birds utilizing the Pacific Flyway. WWW.SURREY.CA In response to your letter, the City of Surrey would like to offer its support to include these two WMA's within the current Ramsar application. A Ramsar designation would bring recognition of the international significance. of these wetland areas and bring further attention to their ecologically significance. .

SURREY I look forward to the City of Delta's continued consllltation with the City of r:JTYOf PARKS Surrey and to being informed of the progress of this·application.

Sincerely, Staff will be providing a report on the Ramsar designation application at an upcoming meeting of Delta Council.

Dear Mayor Watts,

Re: Ramsar Wetland of International Significance

At its September 13, 2010 Regular Meeting, Delta Council received a staff report regarding the designation of Bums Bog as a Ramsar Wetland of tntemational Significance (enclosed), and unanimously adopted the following recommendations:

'THAT Mayor Lois E. Jac/(son write to Mayor Malcolm Brodie and Mayor Dianne Watts to seek support for the addition of the Provincial Wildlife Management Areas within the Cities of Richmond and Surrey for an application to designate Burns Bog and the surrounding Provincial Wildlife Management Areas as a Ramsar Wetland of International Significance_

THA r staff work with Environment Canada, BC Ministry of Environment, and Melro Vancouver to prepare a draft application for designating Burns Bog and the surroundiilg Provincial Wildlife Management Areas as a Ramsar Wetland of International Significance for Council's consideration. "

The Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar, Iran, 1971) called the "Ramsar Convention" is an intergovernmental treaty that embodies the commitments of its member countries to maintain the ecological character of their Wetlands of International Importance and to plan for the "wise use", or sustainable use, of all of the wetlands inthelr territories. Canada is one of 159 Contracting Parties to the Ramsar Cpnvention who have to date designated '1,886 sites as Ramsar Wetlands of International Significance. The Alaksen National Wildlife area on Westham Island is a designated Ramsar sfie. More information on Ramsar can be found at wwvv.ramsar.org.

As part ofthe discussions on the subject of developing an application to deSignate Burns Bog as a Ramsar Wetland of International Significance, the concept of expanding the site boundaries covered under the application to Include the nearby Provincial Wildlife Management Areas has been proposed. Since the Serpentine Wildlife Management Area and a portion of the Boundary Bay Wildlife Management.Area are within the City of Surrey's boundaries, we felt it would be appropriate to seek your support for including these areas as part of the application_

Dear Minister,

RE: Vancouver Wireless Station Interpretive Sign Project

Delta's Heritage Advisory Commission is completing an interpretive sign project on the Vancouver Wireless Station (VWS), just north of the Boundary Bay Airport, which may be of interest to the Department of National Defence and the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF). A mock-up of the interpretive signs is enclosed for your information.

This project focuses on the VWS community which occupied the site between 1948 and 1972. Delta recently recognized the site's historic significance, which was identified through a heritage evaluation, by adding it to our Community Heritage Register. The evaluation also identified the role that the RcAF played in the development of this site and the Boundary Bay Airport. Reference to and photos of the site taken between 1940 and 1945 of-the RCAF using the site are included on the main interpretivesign.

There is an opportunity to add to this project with additional signage which could focus on this or the airport site during other eras in history. We are also interested to know if the RCAF is aware of any funding sources for heritage interpretation. Should you be interested in this idea or in discussing the RCAF's historic use of this site, please contact Laura Ryan, Liaison to the Heritage Advisory Commission, at 604.946.3395 or via email [email protected].

Mayor Jackson and council Corporation of Delta 4500 Clarence Taylor Crescent Delta, BC V4K 3E2

Dear Mayor Jackson and council,

We recently met with representatives of the City of Langley and one of the topics we discussed with them was strata property management issues. Since the Strata Property Act took effect on July I, 2000, REALTORS® have helped tens of thousands of British Columbians buy and sell strata properties. That has resulted in REALTORS® developing a unique understanding of the functioning of this important piece of legislation, and a distinct interest in ensuring it serves the public well.

During the meeting with the City of Langley, we reported that the BC Real Estate Association (BCREA) had recently presented a brief to the provincial government on recommended revisions to the Strata Property Act. The City representatives suggested that we share the enclosed BCREA brief with our local municipalities for their information and so they can consider offering their support of our profession's recommendations.

If you have any questions about BCREA's brief, please let us know. We can be reached by contacting Debbie Jay, Communications Coordinator, at 604.930.7619 or [email protected].

Sincerely, . This correspondence has been received for information purposes only as the fj1 - suggested legislative changes are outside of the local government scope.

BRITISH COLUMBIA REAL ESTATE ASSOCIATION

• • .. • • • • •• • • Executive Summary Strata-title properties are relatively common in British Columbia, with about one quarter of the population living in such homes.

Since the Strata Property Act took effect on July 1, 2000, real estate practitioners have helped tens of thousands of British Columbians buy and sell strata properties. That means real estate practitioners in BC have a unique understanding of the functioning of this legislation, and a distinct interest in making sure it serves the public well.

Through a consultation process that spanned three years and involved stakeholders, real estate practitioners and BC's 12 real estate boards, the following themes clearly emerged: • potential buyers of strata properties need more and better information, which can largely be accomplished by revising the Form B Information Certificate, • strata corporations and property managers will benefit from clarifications regarding procedural matters, and • an alternative dispute resolution process for strata corporations is necessary-as indicated by several individuals, organizations and the government's introduction of Bill 12: Strata Property Amendment Act, 2009 and Bill 8: Strata Property Amendment Act, 2009.

BCREA appreciates the government's consideration of recommendations that address these themes, in addition to the upcoming regulatory changes provided for in Bill 8. Legislative amendments that focus on providing homebuyers with important information and protecting the rights of strata property owners will help ensure an enviable quality of life.

BCREA representatives would be pleased to discuss these issues further, as well as provide research or other support to help enact these recommendations.

Introduction The Strata Property Act (SPA) impacts about 520,000 businesses and households British Columbia1 and, considering the importance of strata-title properties as attainable housing, that number may well increase.

Therefore, the British Columbia Real Estate Association (BCREA) and real estate practitioners are interested in making sure this legislation reflects the needs of strata owners and potential buyers. REALTORS@ recognize the need for buyers to have as much information as possible without undue burden, and the importance of ensuring the protection of property owners' rights.

1 According to information obtained by the Vancouver Island Strata Owners' Association from the land Title and Survey Authority in June 2010.

1 When SPA took effect on July 1, 2000, it was a significant improvement over the Condominium Act. Nonetheless, no legislation is perfect and the intervening nine years have provided ample opportunity for real estate practitioners and others to identify improvements that can be made.

Actions Taken The real estate community has a demonstrated history of filling gaps left by SPA to ensure efficient and effective transactions related to stratas. In November 1997, BCREA created a disclosure form for strata properties, the Property Disclosure Statement-Strata Title Properties. The form is used by sellers to voluntarily describe the condition of their property, providing valuable information to potential buyers. It is reviewed regularly and amended as needed by BCREA's Standard Forms Committee, which includes a representative from the Canadian Bar Association - BC Branch. The Real Estate Council of British Columbia, in its Professional Standards Manual, also recommends the use of this form.

The Victoria Real Estate Board, responding to concerns from its member REALTORS® about delays in obtaining necessary strata information, created a password-protected website in 2006 where property managers are able to post and verify documents. REALTORS® are then able to order those materials online and obtain them immediately.

In July 2008, BCREA, the Urban Development Institute and the Canadian Home Builders' Association of BC introduced the Presale Transaction Cross Reference List, intended as a starting point for homebuyers to determine whether inquiries, advice or clarification is needed when navigating the purchase of a home in a multifamily development under construction.

Clearly, the provincial government also recognized the need to update the Strata Property Act, when it introduced Bill 12: Strata Property Amendment Act, 2009 and Bill 8: Strata Property Amendment Act, 2009. BCREA supported these efforts, and looks forward to the implementation of measures that will provide more certainty for strata property owners by creating more affordable and efficient ways to resolve disputes and allowing access to more and better information, such as depreciation reports and audited financial statements.

Overview of Process With a focus on providing buyers with as much information as possible and protecting the rights of strata property owners, in 2007 BCREA created its Strata Property Act Focus Group to identify concerns and recommend changes to the legislation. The focus group consisted of real estate practitioners from around the province, and was facilitated by Adrienne Murray, a lawyer who practices exclusively in the area of strata law. Prior to starting a law practice, Adrienne worked for the provincial government for 15 years,eight of those as the Deputy Superintendent of Real Estate.

2 In two meetings, one in 2007 and one in 2008, SPA Focus Group members considered recommendations from other stakeholders, BC real estate boards and individual licensees. They also examined a strata property transaction, from the selling and listing perspectives.

While the focus group carried out its mandate, BCREA's Government Relations Committee continued to receive comments and suggestions. The Association was pleased when the government introduced Bill 8 in fall 2009.

Convinced of the need to amend the legislation, BCREA circulated draft recommendations to its 12 member real estate boards in 2009 and 2010. Several of those real estate boards sought feedback from REAlTORS®, property managers and stakeholders to ensure all viewpoints were considered. The recommendations contained in this document are, therefore, the result of extensive and thoughtful consultations.

Challenges and Recommendations This section is organized into two main categories: upcoming regulatory changes resulting from Bill 8 and further improvements.

Upcoming Regulatory Changes

Dispute Resolution Access to arbitration and remediation, as well as to Provincial Court, is welcomed. At present, strata corporations and owners clearly lack an effective, affordable dispute resolution process. REAlTORS® and BCREA recommend the provincial government add new provisions in the Strata Property Act to create an alternative dispute resolution process for strata corporations, as introduced in Bill 8, Strata Property Amendment Act, 2009.

Audited Financial Statements For consistency and certainty for strata owners and potential owners, ensure legislation specifies what is required to be reported in financial statements. While REAlTORS® and BCREA support the ability of strata corporations to waive this requirement by a % vote at a general meeting, a prescribed alternative short form should be required of all strata corporations. This form could be completed by the strata council or property manager.

Depreciation Reports Because they will provide additional information to potential buyers of strata units, and will help ensure the integrity of all strata units, BCREA is pleased with the concept of depreciation reports, and with the Strata Property Act amendment requiring the most recent depreciation report be attached to the Form B Information Certificate.

3 BCREA recommends the provincial government prescribe a standardized depreciation report, updated annually with professionals completing appropriate sections. While REALTORS® and BCREA support the ability of strata corporations to waive this requirement by a % vote at a general meeting, a prescribed short form should be required of all strata corporations. This form could be completed by the strata council or property manager.

Further Improvements

Opportunity 1: Information Potential buyers of strata properties need more and better information Form B Information Certificate does not address critical information.

Recommendation: Add new provisions to s. 59(3} to require strata corporations to disclose information about: a} the designation of parking as either common property, limited common property, part of the strata lot or subject to a lease with the developer; if the parking and storage is designated as common property, the strata corporation should indicate how it will be allocated to a new buyer and what stall numbers and storage lockers will be assigned to the buyer, b) what equipment is leased, c) engineer's reports, d) depreciation reports and/or reserve fund "The strata property studies, information is very important to e) age and material of roof, the success of a sale. The information has to be f) information about the building envelope, straightforward and easy to and understand. Good or bad news, g) number of strata lots in the strata plan it is what it is." allowed to be rented. -Mary Sutherland REALTOR®, Vancouver See the Appendix for proposed changes to the Form B Information Certificate.

Opportunity 2: Compliance Strata corporations and property managers will benefit from clarifications regarding procedural matters

Recommendation: Create additional provisions to assist self-managed strata corporations; i.e., a best practices guide created by the Financial Institutions Commission or a schedule of best practices appended to the Strata Property Act, similar to the standard bylaws.

4 Conclusion BCREA appreciates the government's consideration of these recommendations. With more than 25 per cent of British Columbians living in strata title properties, legislative amendments that provide home buyers with important information and protect the rights of strata property owners will be greeted with enthusiasm and relief, contributing to improved quality of life.

BCREA representatives would be pleased to discuss these issues further, as well as provide research or other support to help enact these recommendations.

From: Terry Stevenson [[email protected]] Sent: Monday, November 22, 2010 1 :57 PM To: Mayor & Council Subject: Delta Marsh hunting

Dear Mayor / Committee Members,

I am writing to ask for some answers concerning the duck and goose hunting that goes on in the marshes. Every year I find that there are more hunters out at Swenson Walk. Although it amounted to only two pairs of hunters on Sunday afternoon, November 21,2010, between 2 and 3.00 pm, one pair 100 meters from the public path and one pair in a boat near the north shore of the Fraser arm, they managed to destroy the peace and harmony of the marshes for all the wildlife and for the dozens of walkers using the area.

I have not been able to find the BC or Delta hunting regulations for either ducks or Snow geese on line, both species which were being shot at yesterday. I would be grateful if you would kindly forward me the regulations you have concerning hunting periods, licenses, and your policy for hunting.

In the past few years the marshes have been a refuge for Snowy owls as well as many birds struggling against extinction. That a minority of people with shotguns are allowed to destroy a wildlife refuge of breathtaking importance is incredible. If the hunters are behaving legally, why is it that the City of Della maintains a 1950's attitude to a 2010 situation? Is council unaware of the preciousness of the gem that is in the city's jurisdiction?

I would be very grateful for your time on this.

Yours sincerely,

Tom Leys '. ~Delta's "Discharge of Firearms Regulation Bylaw No. 2155, 1974" 5W3 SD~~e'Jill€j c/o does not permit the discharge of firearms within Ladner Harbour v'thJe.e t.W~ (; S4J ,If \ Park.
