ADMINISTRATIVE INQUIRIES

15.1

Public Hearing Process for Subdivision Application SB2021-0201

Submitted by: Councillor Farkas

Regarding proposed subdivision SB2021-0201, when this file was presented to Council on January 13, 2020 as land use redesignation LOC2019-0061, Council was told that the rezoning from DC to R-1 was being proposed in order to accommodate minor housekeeping to allow 10 parcels instead of 9 and add 1 metre of additional height. Additionally, correspondence I received on behalf of the applicant on January 9, 2020 stated, ‘Should the Land Use Redesignation be approved, we will still be maintaining the proposed form of development and will continue to align with the original intent of the Crestmont Conceptual Scheme and DC 17D2008 by maintaining a transition between country and urban residential development.’

The applicant has recently applied for a subdivision that will increase the density of a portion of the area from 8 parcels to 27 parcels. The surrounding homeowners have voiced their concern with this item not being given a public hearing, and have stated that the only reason they did not voice opposition to the Land Use Redesignation in early 2020 was due to the assurance received from the applicant that the rezoning would not result in any material changes to the conceptual development plan.

Given this information, why is subdivision application SB2021-0201 not open to the public hearing process?

15.2

Richmond Green Needs and Assessment Concerns and Questions

   water security. (Needs Assessment page 3) What portion of the remaining park space will be used for
   water reservoir expansion? What will the security requirements be for that space?
2. The upper baseball diamonds may be the ONLY large chunk of unencumbered space remaining in the park after the water reservoirs have been expanded. Could some low cost remediation work be done on the OWC land so that we can leave the ball diamonds alone?
3. The Richmond Green Golf Course was supposed to be open in Spring of 2020 with disc golf as a
   temporary use. It is STILL not open. Why is this the case? What needs to be done before it can be
   opened?
4. The revised LOC application indicates that there will be a land use change with a reduction/ cap on the FAR since this application first came forward. What is the potential impact on the sale price?
5. Needs Assessment page 4—CLC is responsible for building the road. If they need to demolish the
   clubhouse, there would be some funds for small upgrades. Is further technical work required on the
   proposed access road off of 33 Ave SW in order to make it BRT compliant?
6. The only areas which are to be preserved as M-R/park space are the proposed non-standard ball
   diamond, the tennis courts and the playground. The rest is unknown due to water resource
   requirements. How can we consider this proposal as an increase in park space given the many
   unanswered questions?
7. As per PFC2020-0952, REDS is supposed to provide the current public utilization rates for all of the
   amenities in Richmond Green Park. Where are these?
8. Public Engagement was conducted for this application, but a detailed What We Heard Report has not
   been provided. Where is it?
9. Richmond Green Golf Course houses some of the largest water reservoirs in the City and has done so since the early 1900’s. It can never be developed and should therefore never have become part of a discussion to sell golf course land for golf course operations. What is the rationale for including it in the first place?
10. On what basis did REDS choose the baseball diamonds? What benchmark/threshold did they use to
    determine that 2 very well baseball diamonds should be sold?
11. At the October 13, 2020 PFC meeting, Councillors were not informed that Richmond Green was a
    major/regional park, one of 34 in our land use bylaw. Councillor Farrell suggested that maybe it should BECOME a regional park. Why wasn’t Council made aware that Richmond Green was a regional park when this process started? Why would a regional park that is an athletic park be considered any differently than our other regional parks?
12. All of this work is being undertaken as part of the direction of PFC2020-0952. The EOI Attachment 2
    end of page 2 indicated that further investigation was required to provide the City and interested parties with required details of a proposed contract structure to assess impacts to operations and finances… Why was this investigation not undertaken? Why did RE&DS turn to the sale of baseball diamonds in a regional park instead?
13. There is almost $9.5 million of projected costs with most of the costs associated with remediation of the OWC land and administration fees. Another $675000 is going into replacing an existing ball diamond. Only up to $500000 is allotted for upgrades to the tot lot and offsite ball diamonds. How can this be viewed as improvements to the park space?
14. Needs Assessment page 3—OWC land is contaminated, so it has no real value, just expenses. Why
    would book value $ be given to Facility Management for having contaminated the land?
15. Why are we even considering the sale of regional park space to remediate contaminated Roads Depot land? Why shouldn’t this be coming from Roads budget?
16. PFC2019-1227 (Attachment 3B) stated that there would be no net loss of baseball diamonds, and that the diamonds would meet the current City standard. This Needs Assessment indicates that only 1 non-standard diamond can be provided on site, and no other site has been identified for a second diamond. Westgate has been suggested as a community to transition the ball diamonds to. Given that these diamonds require a significant amount of parking, Has the Westgate Community Association actually been engaged?
