Development Cost Charges (DCCs):

1. Transportation

2. Parkland Acquisition

3. Park Improvement

4. Drainage

5. Sanitary Sewer

6. Water System

• Main method to ensure new development contributes to providing necessary infrastructure and amenities to support growth.

• DCCs are fees paid by developers on all new development either per housing unit or per square metre of new construction

• DCC rates are set citywide by Council and the money goes into six specific funds to help pay for needed infrastructure:

Other Growth-Funded ProgramsTwo additional programs to raise funds from new development to help pay for amenities not eligible for DCC funding:

1. Density Bonus

• An optional financial contribution made by a developer when City Council approves additional proposed density at the time of rezoning.

• The amount of additional density and financial contribution is set out in the Zoning Bylaw.

• Applies to floorspace above 2.5 Floor Area Ratio (FAR).

• Voluntary contribution made by a developer at the time of rezoning in the Burquitlam-Lougheed area.

• Only applies to new residential density additional building floor area associated with the rezoning application.

• Used to help fund a specific amenity in the area.

2. Community Amenity Contribution (CACs)

"I second this"

Do not alter thiscorner spur road.

What are we goingto do to help landlords

on the upper side ofEdgar Ave betweenAllison and Walker?

Maintain singlefamily dwellingsthroughout area

Area needs to bereconsidered asthis links with

the densificationof Austin Heights

This intersection isVERY BAD. Austinand Blue Mountain

Reduce traffic speeds to30km/h in this section of

Austin and Blue Mountain

Needs a better /safer bike path

here - North / South

Road to sidewalk onNorth Rd too narrow.

Big trucks and busses goby on rainy days and

pedestrians get soaked.

Area bounded by Foster,Blue Mountain, Austin and North Road - Leave

as single familyhouses (as is).

Whiting Way isgetting too busyfor pedestrians.

Inattentive driversspeeding. Unsafe.

Maintain mediumdensity once past the400m shoulder areas

No development eastof Aspen. Newer

single family only.

Develop allthis area Subdivide

It’s ok to tear downold mouldy houses

and build new ones evenwith a suite in it butdon't cover the lotwith three houses.Encourage smaller

lots/homes insteadof monster houses

in single familyareas

Please allowlaneway homesin duplex zones

Maintain rental housingstock. It is important

as transitional housing

What aboutCottonwood

rental housing?Reopen the

Cottonwood accessto North Road

Need a gas stationat Burquitlam and

a grocery store

On North Road andCottonwood - need to

open the road forresidents. It is

ABSOLUTELY inconvenient

Please keepthe community

No city land to begiven away to a non-

profit organization i.e.park land for SURE NO bus route

on Robinson!Please

Keep Robinsoneast to Blue Mountainsingle family homes

Keep singlefamily homes

Single family housingeast of Robinson muststay! No 2, 3, 4 housingfurther than Robinson.

Ensure adequate greenspace and communityfacilities for increasedpopulation in the area

Please have aroundabout trafficcircle right here

We must have a roadway todrive to the Safeway andthe rest of the Plaza. It's

a disaster waiting to happenwith people trying to get

This area within 400mof station - any

plans for mediumdensity west of Clarke

Can you put a smallpark on the land left of Kemsley

Too much rezoning formultifamily homes. We

should keep it theway it is. Thanks!

Miller Ave -pave roads/sidewalks!

No halfwayhouse onMiller Ave.

No halfwayhouse onMiller Ave.

Rezone old neighbourhood(Grant Street) large lots.

Perfect for affordablehousing and close to

skytrain and bus to SFU

Rezone single familydwellings to be able to

subdivide and buildsmaller houses.

Allow higher densitysuch as row housesand quadruplexes on

both sides of Grant St.

Planning should take adjacent housing types into account. Port Moody apartments on Ingersoll St. are medium density (3 floors). Need transition to lower

density on Coquitlam side - eg. townhouse / row house

When Nicola pushesthrough, you'll

need to manage ratrunning off Clarice

down Thompson thenNicola to Chapman.

Traffic lawenforcement on

Chapman. YES!!!!

Slow downthe Chapman

traffic! PLEASE

Traffic calming?Enforcement oftraffic bylaws.

Less traffic onChapman & North.

Thanks for sidewalk.

Retain treesin all of EdgarStreet area

Restrict monster homesthat destroy all trees.

Improve and add to parkspace! Restrict streetparking for residentsTownhouses

or at leastduplex zoning

More trees,

Consider safety ofpedestrians walking

Considerduplexes onsmaller lots

In this area each lot isbig enough to build 2

single houses. Wehope we can build

two houses on our lot

Children's activitycentre is needed inthis neighbourhood

Less highrise

buildings

Decrease the number ofhigh rise buildings

(more than 10 stories)

More townhouseswith 3 or 4bedrooms

More lowrise condos

Smalleraffordable single

Need sidewalk.on North side toAustin at Guilby

Widerroads

sign - too many people run this

Ebert Ave becoming aspeed way. Need speedbumps. More lighting.

Whiting Wayspeeding. Texting.Need speed bumps

North Road =Shopping Street.The Road. Like

Commercial DriveOnly New Areas

The amount of garbage,dog poop, and cigarette

butts. Look into moregarbage bins and provide

cigarette butt recycling

Safety and security

DensityTraffic

People speeding,texting is not

encouraging forpedestrians. Sidewalks

and lighting needed

No multifamily homesin established neighbourhoods.We have been waiting years to

build our home on Foster &can’t because of developers

wanting to buy up landfor multifamily use!

Rezone area toaccommodate lane

homes for areaswhich have back

lane access

Green spaces(parks) in the

Burquitlam Area

Either have a permanentbuiding here or just get

rid of the trailer.

This field couldbe a lot better.

Need saferintersections

Keep park /greenspace

Good mix of densityHousing [like Jim]

Patterson [SkyTrain] Station

High Rise withCommercial

attracts crime

Would like to seedevelopment model like

Patterson [SkyTrain] Station

Where is ourrecreation

going to be?

Consider establishing anAdvisory Design Panel

with architects, landscapearchitects, and engineers to help staff and council

with design/rapid growth.Value added professionalsproviding advice is better.

Sidewalksplease!

More green space

Keep eastof Robinsonas a suburbBetter street

design for better flowof traffic. Narrow street

causes conjestion

Slightly longertraffic light or

signal synchonizedfor pedestrianswith a disability

Designated bike laneto link Coquitlamto Burnaby paths

No more highrise development

until there is aneighbourhood plan

for Burquitlam

No townhouseseast of Robinson

More townhouses are needed spread

around in Burquitlam

Keep east ofRobinson as single

family housing This park canbe betterutilized

Protectthe greenbelt area

Variety of housing typesfor transition to Port

Mody e.g. town houses

Have the same land use on both sides of the street. Makes

the neighbourhood nicer

Moredensity = safety

Too many super largelots with old

houses but only RS-1.Increase density

Expandthe greenbelt area

Please consider neighbourhood boundaries.Apartment buildings in Port Moody. Why single

family predominently in Coquitlam?

Protectgreenspace

Must increase density forthe following reasons:

- Lots of traffic through Elmwood- Lack of investment from owners

- Lots of rentals & illegal suites- Area lagging behind other

neighbourhoods in Coquitlam West,indicating a less desirable area

- TDS doesn’t support a “no change” strategy

We would like to see Oakdale included as a “Growth Area”. There needs to be renewal and redevelopment in the area.

Multi-Family rezoning makes sense!

Rezone Oakdale.Needs updating

Too many renters not taking care of homes
