Sacre-Davey Engineering 315 Mountain Highway North Vancouver, BC V7J 2K7
Legal Description:
Lot 1 Section 32 Township 10 New Westminster District Plan BCP4386 PID: 025-612-549
Location:
22575 – Fraser Highway
Total Site Area:
0.81 ha (2.01 acres)
Development Area:
0.29 ha (0.72 acres)
Existing Zoning:
Service Commercial Zone C-3
Murrayville Community Plan:
Commercial
E.S.A. Designation:
E.S.A.# 076 – Upland, Murray and Anderson Creek Areas (Rating - #3)
BACKGROUND/HISTORY:
The subject site is designated “Commercial” in the Murrayville Community Plan and zoned Service Commercial Zone C-3. The subject site is also designated a mandatory Development Permit area allowing Council the opportunity to review the form, character and siting of the proposed development. The subject property and the adjacent lots to the east and west are intended to function as a single commercial development. Two commercial buildings have already been constructed; one located on the lot immediately to the east (MTF Price Matters) and the second on the northern portion of the subject site adjacent to 48 Avenue (multiple tenants). The current application proposes the third building of the overall development on the southern portion of the subject site (adjacent to Fraser Highway). A fourth building is anticipated in the future on the southwestern corner of the site, with a fifth building eventually being constructed on the lot immediately to the west. All of the buildings are being developed in accordance with an overall site plan previously approved by Council at the time of a previous Development Permit in 2000.
DEVELOPMENT PERMIT APPLICATION NO. 100574 (SACRE-DAVEY ENGINEERING)
Page 9 . . . On August 28, 2006 Council issued Development Permit No. 100436 for the proposed multitenant commercial building (the subject of this application). Since the development was not substantially commenced within two years after the date of issuance, Sacre-Davey Engineering was required to submit a new application. The current proposal is similar to the proposal previously approved by Council in 2006, apart from the addition of sidewalks within the site and the enhancement of the architectural treatment of the elevation adjacent to Fraser Highway. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Sacre-Davey Engineering has applied for a Development Permit to construct a one storey 579 m2 (6,237 ft2) multi-tenant commercial building on the southeast portion of the subject site located at 22575 – Fraser Highway. The proposed multi-tenant commercial building is the third of five buildings to be constructed as part of the overall development, and the second on the subject property. Adjacent Uses: Surrounding land uses include: North: South: East: West:
48 Avenue, beyond which is land zoned Rural Zone RU-3 and located within the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR), outside the Murrayville Community Plan Area; Fraser Highway, beyond which are properties zoned Service Industrial Zone M-1B; MTF Price Matters zoned Service Commercial Zone C-3; and A vacant lot zoned Service Commercial Zone C-3.
Development Permit: In accordance with Council’s policy, a rendering, a site plan, building elevations, a landscape plan, and a signage plan have been submitted detailing the proposed development’s form, character and siting. Development Permit No. 100574, including Schedules “A” to “G”, are attached to this report as Attachment B. The proposed one storey 579 m2 (6,237 ft2) multi-tenant commercial building (Building “B”) is sited on the southern portion of the site, with a north-south orientation. Entrances to the individual units will be provided on both the east and west sides of the building. As the proposed building is visible from all directions, the applicant has treated all of the elevations with similar architectural treatment. Given that the subject property and the adjacent lots to the east and west are intended to comprise one commercial development, Building “B” has been designed to match the existing buildings. Exteriors consist of Stone Grey concrete walls and a Charcoal cornice along the length of the roof line. The cornice introduces vertical variety along the east and west façades (facing the parking areas) and along the south façade (facing Fraser Highway). The south elevation also features an articulated façade to provide upgraded views from Fraser Highway. Storefront windows will be located next to the entrance doors on the east and west elevations with additional windows located on the north and south elevations. Clear window glazing will be utilized with window frames painted Regent Grey. Canopies (Lakeland Blue) will be located above the doors and windows on all of the building elevations. Garbage facilities will be located on the north side of Building “B” in a screened enclosure not visible from Fraser Highway.
DEVELOPMENT PERMIT APPLICATION NO. 100574 (SACRE-DAVEY ENGINEERING)
Page 10 . . . The third building anticipated on the subject site (Building “C”) is not part of the current application, and will be subject to a subsequent Development Permit application. The area designated for Building “C” will be seeded as interim cover until the area is developed in the future. The proposed development complies with the Service Commercial Zone C-3 provisions concerning use, site coverage, building setbacks, building height and parking. Overall, in staff’s opinion, the form, character and siting of the proposed development comply with the Development Permit Guidelines of the Murrayville Community Plan (Attachment A). Access and Parking: Cross-access easements currently exist over the subject site and the properties immediately to the east and west. The cross-access easements allow for shared access to both 48 Avenue and Fraser Highway. The driveway on Fraser Highway is located on the western property line and the driveway on 48 Avenue is located on the eastern property line. A second driveway on 48 Avenue exists on the property immediately to the west. This driveway will be available to the subject site (and the property to the east) through registration of another cross-access easement at the time of future development on the western property. Recent upgrades to the intersection at Fraser Highway and 48 Avenue, which included the realignment of 48 Avenue, have not impacted access to the subject site. Overall, the applicant is proposing to provide a total of 119 parking spaces in compliance with the Township’s Zoning Bylaw (117 required). As a condition of the previous Development Permit, a four (4) metre wide right of way was provided to upgrade and widen Fraser Highway. As part of the upgrades, a sidewalk was constructed on Fraser Highway adjacent to the subject site. As the sidewalk is higher than the subject site, the applicant will be required to install a staircase on the southeast corner of the development property to facilitate pedestrian access. Pedestrian movements have been further accommodated with the provision of several sidewalks on-site providing connections to the sidewalk on Fraser Highway. Signage: In accordance with the Township’s Sign Bylaw, tenant names will be displayed as channel lettering fascia signage on both the east and west elevations. The size and location of these signs are indicated on the building elevations (Schedules “D” and “E”). No freestanding signage is proposed. Servicing: Full urban services (road, water, sanitary and storm sewer) exist to the site. A road right of way, required for the widening of Fraser Highway, was secured with the previous Development Permit. At the Building Permit stage, the applicant will be required to obtain an Erosion and Sediment Control Permit in accordance with the Erosion and Sediment Control Bylaw and prepare an onsite servicing and stormwater management plan in accordance with the Subdivision and Development Control Bylaw to the acceptance of the General Manager of Engineering.

Page 11 . . .
Tree Protection: In compliance with the Township’s Tree Protection Bylaw, the applicant has submitted a tree summary schedule indicating that there are no trees located on the subject site as it was cleared of vegetation approximately ten (10) years ago. As a result, 22 trees are required to be planted, all of which are proposed to be planted on the development site. Final tree replacement plans are subject to the acceptance of the Manager of Parks Design and Development prior to issuance of a Building Permit. Landscaping: The landscape plan proposes the planting of trees, shrubs and groundcover in the sloped area adjacent to Fraser Highway and in landscaped areas within the parking lot. Proposed trees are Katsura and Red Oak; shrubs include Silverleaf Dogwood, Burning Bush, Mugo Pine, Rhododendron and Viburnum; and groundcovers are Vancouver Jade Kinnickinnick and Heather. Landscaping currently exists on the northern portion of the property and was planted in conjunction with a previous Development Permit for Building “A”. The area designated for Building “C” will be seeded as interim cover pending future development. Landscape plans for Building “C” will be addressed subject to a subsequent Development Permit. Environmental Considerations: The Township’s Environmentally Sensitive Areas (E.S.A.) Study identifies the lands as forming part of the Upland, Murray and Anderson Creek Areas. No watercourses exist on the subject site. A site-specific stormwater management plan is required as part of the Building Permit application to deal with changes to on-site drainage resulting from the proposed development. In addition, before any works are undertaken, an Erosion and Sediment Control Permit is required in accordance with the Erosion and Sediment Control Bylaw to ensure that discharge during construction is controlled. These items, along with the provision of full urban services and compliance with the Township’s Tree Protection Bylaw, satisfy the management guidelines identified in the Township’s E.S.A. Study. Exterior Lighting: In compliance with the Township’s Exterior Lighting Impact Policy, an Exterior Lighting Impact Plan will be required as a condition of the Development Permit (at the Building Permit stage) as the subject site is located adjacent to rural properties in the Agricultural Land Reserve. POLICY CONSIDERATIONS:
The proposed development complies with the “Commercial” designation of the Murrayville Community Plan and complies with the Service Commercial Zone C-3 requirements. The proposal, in staff’s opinion, also complies with the Development Permit Guidelines of the Murrayville Community Plan (Attachment A). Issuance of Development Permit No. 100574 is conditional upon seven (7) conditions, plus five (5) Building Permit conditions.

DEVELOPMENT PERMIT APPLICATION NO. 100574 (SACRE-DAVEY ENGINEERING)
Page 9 . . . On August 28, 2006 Council issued Development Permit No. 100436 for the proposed multitenant commercial building (the subject of this application). Since the development was not substantially commenced within two years after the date of issuance, Sacre-Davey Engineering was required to submit a new application. The current proposal is similar to the proposal previously approved by Council in 2006, apart from the addition of sidewalks within the site and the enhancement of the architectural treatment of the elevation adjacent to Fraser Highway. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Sacre-Davey Engineering has applied for a Development Permit to construct a one storey 579 m2 (6,237 ft2) multi-tenant commercial building on the southeast portion of the subject site located at 22575 – Fraser Highway. The proposed multi-tenant commercial building is the third of five buildings to be constructed as part of the overall development, and the second on the subject property. Adjacent Uses: Surrounding land uses include: North: South: East: West:
48 Avenue, beyond which is land zoned Rural Zone RU-3 and located within the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR), outside the Murrayville Community Plan Area; Fraser Highway, beyond which are properties zoned Service Industrial Zone M-1B; MTF Price Matters zoned Service Commercial Zone C-3; and A vacant lot zoned Service Commercial Zone C-3.
Development Permit: In accordance with Council’s policy, a rendering, a site plan, building elevations, a landscape plan, and a signage plan have been submitted detailing the proposed development’s form, character and siting. Development Permit No. 100574, including Schedules “A” to “G”, are attached to this report as Attachment B. The proposed one storey 579 m2 (6,237 ft2) multi-tenant commercial building (Building “B”) is sited on the southern portion of the site, with a north-south orientation. Entrances to the individual units will be provided on both the east and west sides of the building.

Page 10 . . . The third building anticipated on the subject site (Building “C”) is not part of the current application, and will be subject to a subsequent Development Permit application. The area designated for Building “C” will be seeded as interim cover until the area is developed in the future. The proposed development complies with the Service Commercial Zone C-3 provisions concerning use, site coverage, building setbacks, building height and parking. Overall, in staff’s opinion, the form, character and siting of the proposed development comply with the Development Permit Guidelines of the Murrayville Community Plan (Attachment A). Access and Parking: Cross-access easements currently exist over the subject site and the properties immediately to the east and west. The cross-access easements allow for shared access to both 48 Avenue and Fraser Highway. The driveway on Fraser Highway is located on the western property line and the driveway on 48 Avenue is located on the eastern property line. A second driveway on 48 Avenue exists on the property immediately to the west. This driveway will be available to the subject site (and the property to the east) through registration of another cross-access easement at the time of future development on the western property. Recent upgrades to the intersection at Fraser Highway and 48 Avenue, which included the realignment of 48 Avenue, have not impacted access to the subject site. Overall, the applicant is proposing to provide a total of 119 parking spaces in compliance with the Township’s Zoning Bylaw (117 required). As a condition of the previous Development Permit, a four (4) metre wide right of way was provided to upgrade and widen Fraser Highway. As part of the upgrades, a sidewalk was constructed on Fraser Highway adjacent to the subject site. As the sidewalk is higher than the subject site, the applicant will be required to install a staircase on the southeast corner of the development property to facilitate pedestrian access. Pedestrian movements have been further accommodated with the provision of several sidewalks on-site providing connections to the sidewalk on Fraser Highway. Signage: In accordance with the Township’s Sign Bylaw, tenant names will be displayed as channel lettering fascia signage on both the east and west elevations. The size and location of these signs are indicated on the building elevations (Schedules “D” and “E”). No freestanding signage is proposed. Servicing: Full urban services (road, water, sanitary and storm sewer) exist to the site. A road right of way, required for the widening of Fraser Highway, was secured with the previous Development Permit. At the Building Permit stage, the applicant will be required to obtain an Erosion and Sediment Control Permit in accordance with the Erosion and Sediment Control Bylaw and prepare an onsite servicing and stormwater management plan in accordance with the Subdivision and Development Control Bylaw to the acceptance of the General Manager of Engineering.

Tree Protection: In compliance with the Township’s Tree Protection Bylaw, the applicant has submitted a tree summary schedule indicating that there are no trees located on the subject site as it was cleared of vegetation approximately ten (10) years ago. As a result, 22 trees are required to be planted, all of which are proposed to be planted on the development site. Final tree replacement plans are subject to the acceptance of the Manager of Parks Design and Development prior to issuance of a Building Permit. Landscaping: The landscape plan proposes the planting of trees, shrubs and groundcover in the sloped area adjacent to Fraser Highway and in landscaped areas within the parking lot. Proposed trees are Katsura and Red Oak; shrubs include Silverleaf Dogwood, Burning Bush, Mugo Pine, Rhododendron and Viburnum; and groundcovers are Vancouver Jade Kinnickinnick and Heather. Landscaping currently exists on the northern portion of the property and was planted in conjunction with a previous Development Permit for Building “A”. The area designated for Building “C” will be seeded as interim cover pending future development. Landscape plans for Building “C” will be addressed subject to a subsequent Development Permit. Environmental Considerations: The Township’s Environmentally Sensitive Areas (E.S.A.) Study identifies the lands as forming part of the Upland, Murray and Anderson Creek Areas. No watercourses exist on the subject site. A site-specific stormwater management plan is required as part of the Building Permit application to deal with changes to on-site drainage resulting from the proposed development. In addition, before any works are undertaken, an Erosion and Sediment Control Permit is required in accordance with the Erosion and Sediment Control Bylaw to ensure that discharge during construction is controlled. These items, along with the provision of full urban services and compliance with the Township’s Tree Protection Bylaw, satisfy the management guidelines identified in the Township’s E.S.A. Study. Exterior Lighting: In compliance with the Township’s Exterior Lighting Impact Policy, an Exterior Lighting Impact Plan will be required as a condition of the Development Permit (at the Building Permit stage) as the subject site is located adjacent to rural properties in the Agricultural Land Reserve. POLICY CONSIDERATIONS:
The proposed development complies with the “Commercial” designation of the Murrayville Community Plan and complies with the Service Commercial Zone C-3 requirements. The proposal, in staff’s opinion, also complies with the Development Permit Guidelines of the Murrayville Community Plan (Attachment A). Issuance of Development Permit No. 100574 is conditional upon seven (7) conditions, plus five (5) Building Permit conditions.
