Janzen Department Supervisor ATTACHMENTS: Original subdivision decision, Plans/ diagrams, Extension Request Date APPROVALS: L. Ran e Department Head . Rob son AA- • 8i 2-41 ? Date // Co nty Manager 9 fly Date BACKGROUND: On October 18th, 2012 County Council granted Mr. Stacey an approval to create a 10 lot grouped country residential subdivision, on property located east of the City of Lethbridge and immediately south of Highway 512, known as Windy Acres estates. The applicant received a first Time Extension on October 10th, 2013, which expires on October 18 th, 2014. The applicant is asking for additional time to complete the finalization and the last few outstanding conditions, including the final survey work. He recently signed (October 2, 2014) a development agreement with the County for his subdivision, which was a required condition of approval, and has paid his municipal reserve payment to the County. As per County policy, a second time extension must be approved by County Council. Granting a time extension will allow the applicant to complete and finalize the subdivision originally approved. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: None specific to the County relating to the subdivision finalization and registration. RECOMMENDATION: That County Council grants a one-year extension request for Subdivision Approval 2012-0-072 (NE 31-0820-W4M - Stacey/Reid) up to October 18, 2015. 5 ()LIMAN RIVE,Ii REGION. IL Skin ICES COMMNSION To: Lethbridge County Reeve and Council From: Steve Harty — ORRSC Senior Planner Date: 10/06/2014 Re: Subdivision Approval Extension Request (Stacey/Reid — Windy Acres) Refer to file: 2012-0-072 The following attachment contains a "Time Extension" request for a subdivision approval for a property located in the NE 31-08-20-W4M, immediately south of Highway 512, known as Windy Acres estates. The original subdivision (application no. 2012-0-072) approval was on October 181h, 2012, and the applicants are requesting a second time extension be granted. As per section 657(5) of the Municipal Government Act, if a plan of subdivision is not registered in a Land Titles Office within one year after being endorsed, the plan may not be accepted by a Registrar, unless Council or their designate grants an extension. The applicant received a first Time Extension on October 10th, 2013, which expires on October 18'h, 2014. The application involved a 10 lot grouped country residential subdivision (land designated and ASP adopted for such), and the applicant is asking for more time to meet the conditions, including that they enter into and sign a development agreement (note: this was recently completed on October 2, 2014). They have a few other outstanding conditions including getting consents signed, providing architectural controls, submitting an approval letter from AESRD, etc. Therefore, they are asking for a second time extension to be granted for up to one additional year, which must be approved by Council. All the original conditions placed on the 2012 subdivision approval will have to be met before the subdivision is finalized (attached is a copy of the original subdivision diagram and approval). At Council's prerogative, consideration may be given to granting an additional time extension up to October 18th, 2015, or other date as specified by Council, to allow the applicants to finalize their approval and enable the plan of subdivision to be registered at Land Titles Office. If you have any questions or need clarification, I am available at your convenience.

CONDITIONS: 1. That, pursuant to Section 654(1)(d) of the Municipal Government Act, all outstanding property taxes shall be paid to the County of Lethbridge. 2. That, pursuant to Section 655(1)(b) of the Municipal Government Act, the applicant or owner or both enter into a Development Agreement with the County of Lethbridge which shall be registered concurrently with the final plan against the title(s) being created. The agreement may refer to internal and service road improvements, future storm pond and drainage ditch construction and plan completion, and may require the applicant to put up a bond or type of security to guarantee works required to be completed, at the expense of the developer. In respect of the Malloy Drain Storm Water master Plan, future development should have to incur any fees or levies that may be imposed by the county to support improvements to address the basin issues. This may be addressed through the terms of the agreement. 3. That any required utility right-of-ways or easements for the drainage be prepared by an Alberta Land Surveyor in accordance with the engineered drainage plan. The access right-of-way for Lot 4PUL must also be addressed by the plan prepared by the Surveyor. 4. That any conditions of Alberta Transportation shall be established prior to finalization of the application. 5. An engineered drainage/storm water management plan in accordance with Alberta Environment Sustainable Resource Development requirements has been submitted and deemed acceptable to the County of Lethbridge. Final endorsement of the subdivision shall not be provided until the County receives an approval under the Water Act from Alberta Environment Sustainable Resource Development for storm water management within the Malloy Drainage Basin; or, if the applicant is responsible for obtaining an approval under the Water Act, a letter of authorization from Alberta Environment Sustainable Resource Development shall be provided to the municipality prior to final endorsement. 6. That the applicant provides a copy of architectural controls, to be approved by the municipality, to ensure high quality development occurs and that geotechnical recommendations are registered on title as a restrictive covenant Clauses in the covenant should include the engineer's references to the establishment of building elevations and septic fields in relation to storm water areas. 7. That the easement(s) as required by ATCO Gas or the municipality shall be established prior to finalization of the application. 8. That the easement(s) as required by Fortis Alberta or the municipality shall be established prior to finalization of the application. 2012-0-072 Page 1 of 4 10 REASONS: 1. The Subdivision Authority is satisfied that with the conditions imposed the proposed subdivision is suitable for the purpose for which the subdivision is intended pursuant to Section 7 of the Subdivision and Development Regulation. 2. The Subdivision Approval Authority has determined the proposed subdivision meets the criteria for grouped country residential use and complies with the land use bylaw. 3. The proposed subdivision conforms to the Windy Acres Area Structure Plan (Bylaw No. 1343) approved for the land. INFORMATIVE: (a) Municipal Reserve is applicable on the entire 26.34 acres as no further subdivision is contemplated for this tile. (b) That a legal description for the proposed parcel be approved by the Surveys Branch, Land Titles Office, Calgary. (c) The applicant/owner is advised that other municipal, provincial or federal government or agency approvals may be required as they relate to the subdivision and the applicant/owner is responsible for verifying and obtaining any other approval, permit, authorization, consent or license that may be required to subdivide, develop and/or service the affected land (this may include but is not limited to Alberta Environment, Alberta Transportation, Alberta Sustainable Resource Development, and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans.) (d) FortisAlberta stated "Easement Required (easement to be granted for $1.00). Developer must contact FortisAlberta Inc. a minimum of 6 weeks in advance of required system changes to determine easement requirements. Alteration to existing FortisAlberta Inc. facilities to accommodate the development will be at the developers expense. A FortisAlberta Preference that the developer is responsible to electrically pre-service the lots. Contact FortisAlberta Inc., Land Services Calgary at (403) 514-4241." (e) ATCO Gas requires a Utility Right of Way as shown hi-lighted on the attached plan. The Utility Right of Way is to be 6.0 meters in width registered to and for the sole use of ATCO Gas. This Utility Right-of-Way will run adjacent to any other foreign Utility Right of Way requirements. When the plan is prepared, please contact our Land Department in Lethbridge at (403) 380-5417 to prepare the easement document. (f) ATCO Pipelines has no objection. (g) SMRID advises the irrigation acres must be removed from the proposed subdivision prior to approval being granted. If water is required for domestic use from the District, all works will be at the landowner's expense and the District will only enter into a Group domestic agreement. A Service Fee of $500.00 plus GST will apply. (h) Alberta Transportation submitted the following: "Reference your file to create ten (10) grouped country residential parcels at the above noted location. The proposal is contrary to Section 14 and subject to the requirements of Section 15(2) of the Subdivision and Development Regulation, being Alberta Regulation 43/2002 ("the regulation"). The department's primary objective is to allow subdivision and development of adjacent properties in a manner that will not compromise the integrity and associated safe operational use or the future expansion of the provincial highway system. To that end and pursuant to Section 14(e) of the regulation, the department is in receipt and has reviewed the 'Windy Acres — Area Structure Plan" (WAASP) — dated March 30, 2010 of which was prepared by Martin Geomatic Consultants Ltd. on behalf of the applicants (Garnet Stacey and Marion 2012-0-072 Page 2 of 4 11 Reid) to support and qualify this application. As the proposed parcels are adjacent to Highway 512, strictly from Alberta Transportation's point of view, the area structure plan will provide for the orderly and efficient development of the plan area. Whereas the WAASP has been endorsed by the county the document has not at this juncture been endorsed by the Minister of Transportation as required by Section 14 of the regulation. However, to expedite the approval process and as ministerial approval would only be a matter of formality In this instance rather than formal endorsement by the minister for all intents and purposes this application will be considered to be in accordance with Section 14(e) of the regulation and the department's position will be expressly based on and subject to the following comments. Moreover, the requirements of said Section 15(2) form and are an integral part of the WAASP document. Given the foregoing and in order that all transportation requirements are fully addressed, pursuant to and in accordance with the approved WAASP a condition of subdivision approval would be subject to the following: • Section 6(e) - Transportation Subsection I. — Site Access and Circulation (a) All direct access to Highway 512 Is considered to be temporary and resultantly dependent upon a final design for local road inter-connects to the provincial highway network the main access to Highway 512 could become less convenient/more circuitous. (b) The department has undertaken a cursory review of which indicates that a Type I intersection design is adequate to accommodate the additional traffic that will be generated by the development. As such a formal Traffic Impact Assessment will not be required and/or requested by the department. Subsection ii— External Roadways (c) It is acknowledged that a flyover will be constructed to carry Highway 512 traffic over Highway 4X. Therefore and to reiterate as outlined in the foregoing comments to Subsection i(a), dependent upon the final design for local road inter-connects to the provincial highway network the main access to Highway 512 could be eliminated and as such access to Highway 512 could become less convenient/more circuitous. Therefore dependent upon the final design the department will not accept any responsibility for compensation requests/claims dealing with loss of business, inconvenient access or any other disruption that may arise as a result of the possible revision to the existing access arrangement. • Section 6(f)— Servicing Subsection iii — Storm Water Management The department has recently approved the "Windy Acres Country Residential Development — Revised Storm Drainage Management and Operational Plan (reference our letter of January 24, 2013 of which is attached for your ease of reference). The full report is available through the undersigned upon request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicant would be advised that any development within 300 metres of the limit of a controlled highway (512) or within 800 metres from the center point of an intersection of a controlled highway (512) and a public road would require the benefit of a permit from our department. This requirement is outlined in the Highways Development and Protection Act and the corresponding Highways Development and Protection Regulation, being Alberta Regulation 326/2009. 2012-0-072 Page 3 of 4 12 The subject property is within the noted control lines and as such any development would require the benefit of the said permit. To ensure that development of the future Highway 4X alignment is not unduly compromised, minimum setbacks would be identified and placed as a condition of approval such that an adequate buffer will be maintained alongside the highway and any other highway related issues could be appropriately addressed. The applicant could contact the department through the undersigned, at Lethbridge 403/381-5426, in this regard. The department accepts no responsibility for the noise Impact of the highway traffic upon any development or occupants thereof. Noise impact and the need for attenuation should be thoroughly assessed. The applicant is advised that provision for noise attenuation Is the sole responsibility of the developer and should be incorporated as required into the subdivision/development design.

In 2013, Felger Farming gained the support of now former Transportation Minister Ric McIver to have several issues stemming back to the highway reiocation resolved. These issues include closing and consolidating these portions of right-of-way. Lethbridge County has taken a proactive role in resolving this issue to the benefit our citizens. FINANCIAL IMPLICAMONS: The County has agreed to pay the legal survey and rand registration costs for this project. Those costs are as follows: Cost of Surveying - $3,500 Cost of Registration through Land Titles office - $2,450 Total cost of project - $5,950 RECOMMENDATION: That County Council approves the first reading of Bylaw 1432 - Road Closure & Consolidation — Felger Farming Co.

Regional Recreation Facilities Grant Program Policy 157 established the framework for the provision of funding to Towns and Villages in the County to help offset recreation facility operating expenses for the years 2012 through 2014. Under Policy 157, $100,000 of grant money in each of the three years of the program was provided to the three municipalities who applied: the Town of Coaldale, the Town of Picture Butte and the Village of Nobleford, The Policy has now expired and to date, the Town of Coalclale and the Town of Picture Butte have proactively provided letters (see attached) to the County inquiring about the status of the program for future yea. The distribution of recreation facility funds provided under Poiicy 157 is summarized in the table below: Reoional Recreational Facilities Grants,Awarded 2012-2014 a il . 1 lLJ Coalda e Nobleford Picture Butte Tata!

Attached revised Policy 157 is intended to eliminate those concerns and reflects the following beliefs: • • • • County Towns and Villages provide recreation opportunities for County citizens as well as their own through a variety of recreation facilities; The operation of recreation facilities presents an ongoing financial challenge to maintain and operate, especially for small, rural municipalities; Municipalities in the County charge appropriate user fees in accordance with industry standards and the fees charged in comparable municipalities; A simplified application process. If Council supports the concept of contributing funds to assist the Towns and Villages within the County in the operation of their public recreation facilities, it is recommended that an annual amount for the grant program be established for the years 2015, 2016 and 2017 through the financial planning (annual budgeting) process. The provision of funds through revised Policy 157 aligns with Council's Strategic Plan vision of offering its citizens quality country living and its Strategic Plan strategy of valuing and investing in its regional relationships. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Council has tentatively allocated $100,000 for recreation in the Operating Budget of its Financial Plan for each fiscal year through to 2017. It is recommended that whatever amount Council may choose for the program, it remains consistent for the three year period so that the receiving municipalities can plan and budget accordingly. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1) That Council amends Policy 157 - adopts Regional Recreational Facilities Grant Program as presented by Administration and further that, 2) That Council allocates $100,000 for recreation in its annual operating budget for each of the years 2015, 2016 and 2017 and that the funds be granted to eligible Towns and Villages in the County in accordance with Regional Recreational Facilities Grant Funding Policy 157. 24 kETHBRIDGE COUNTY EFFECTIVE: Lethbridge County Policy Handbook December 1, 2011 APPROVED BY: County Council SECTION: 100 NO. 157 Page 1 of 2 SUBJECT: Regional Recreation Facilities Grant Program REVISED DATE: POLICY STATEMENT To establish a time-limited program for assisting the Towns and Villages located within Lethbridge County with their operating expenses for running recreation facilities that are accessible to, and which provide benefits to County citizens.

Recreation facilities are conducive to healthy lifestyles and are enjoyed by all residents; regardless of where they reside. Our current three-year agreement expires December 31, 7014. Currently, your annual contribution is S34,061.27. It is important to recognize recreation facilities are not profit centers. In fact, it is worth noting our recreation facilities have an annual deficit. Fadlity Revenue (2013) Expenses (2013) Deficit (2013) Outdoor pool $38,067 $182,471 ($144,404) Arena $136,301 $376,95/ ($240,650) Curling Rink $27,572 $88,621 ($61,049) Quads $5,855 $74,551 ($68,696) 0.00 $50,912* (diamonds/fields) Tot lot/Spay Park est. ($50,912)* est_ ($565,711) Total Deficit for 2013 Every attempt is made to adjust user rates to reflect increased costs, however, facilities such as these can never generate sufficient revenue to ereak even. racitai replacement of these facilities unfortunately isn't factored into the equation. Our objective is to provide a balanced fiscal approach to make recreation services available and affordable to all residents alike. The Town recognizes that each of our municipalities has distinct challenges, but we would appreciate renewal of our recreation funding agreement, recognizing the financial deficit, to better serve the residents of our region with quality, affordable recreation services.

We truly believe our community is not bound by our corporate limits and partnering in these ways allows us both to ensure the highest quality of life for our ratepayers. As we are entering a new budgeting cycle the Town would welcome any information on the continuation, alteration or expansion to the Recreational Support Program and on how we may best engage the County in working to secure continued funding. The operational burdens remain unchanged from the beginning of this program and County residents continue to make up a significant portion of the users of Town recreational facilities. We look forward to continued cooperation in this regard and will await information on the future of the program. Sincerely, Mayor Wendy Jones Via email 120 — 4th Street North, P.O.

P4,t. R, 2AlY Department Head Date , .ff dmin7ive Officer Oc_r- ?fisr Date BACKGROUND: At the September 4, 2014 Council meeting a resolution was passed directing staff to explore the possibilities, grant funding and the overall feasibility of the creation of a regional pathway system involving Lethbridge County, the City of Lethbridge, the Saint Mary River Irrigation District (SMRID) and the Town of Coaldale. A high level conceptual plan for a regional pathway linking the Town of Coaldale to the City of Lethbridge was included in the 2011 Integrated Development Strategy (IDS) that was prepared for the County and the Town of Coaldale. The City of Lethbridge was not consulted during the development of the IDS. Initial contact with the City of Lethbridge regarding a regional pathway resulted in the suggestion that the matter be included for consideration as part of the Inter-municipal Development Plan (IDP) process currently underway between the County and the City. This matter will be included on the October 21 st IMC meeting agenda. The SMRID has informally indicated that they support the pathway concept in principle, as long as it does not interfere with their operations. It was suggested that the pathway be established on the opposite side of the canal from where their service access road is and that it be located at the outside toe of any sloped areas that may exist along the canal, furthest away from the water. Sections of the pathway may be able to be positioned on SMRID right of way while other sections would require the acquisition of access rights on private lands along the pathway, depending on where it is located. Town of Coaldale Senior Staff are planning to discuss the regional pathway with Coaldale Town Council in early October. An update is expected to be received by the County prior to the October 16 th County Council meeting. A more comprehensive assessment of the total cost associated with creating a regional pathway linking the Town of Coaldale and the City of Lethbridge that includes the cost of acquiring rights to privately owned lands, will need to be conducted. A technical assessment of this magnitude will require the expertise of a consultant experienced in land use matters of this nature. The first recommended step in this regard is to apply for a grant that will cover the cost of hiring a consultant to prepare a comprehensive report on the anticipated cost and feasibility of creating of a regional pathway. 31 X:Executive Files \AgendaWtegional Pathway System 2014.doc A project of this nature may be eligible under Alberta Community-lntermunicipal Collaboration (IC) component. Eligible projects under this component include both exploration and implementation. The grant program advisor suggested that a multi-year application be submitted in order to ensure that the project can at least be included in the queue for funds. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The maximum grant available for a project under the Alberta Community Partnership Intermunicipal Collaboration grant program is $350,000 per year. There are no cost share requirements for the 2014/15 program year. The application deadline for the 2014/2015 program year is November 30, 2014. Funds that may be received for the current program year can be used exclusively to fund a feasibility study. For 2015/16 and 2016/2017 the IC component will fully fund the first $100,000 only, followed by a 50/50 cost-share for the remaining project costs up to $250,000 per year. The maximum funding amount that could be provided is capped at $350,000 per year. Any funds that may be received in the second and third year would be used for implementing the project which would involve acquiring any necessary land and constructing the trail. RECOMMENDATION: That the County requests the Town of Coaldale, the City of Lethbridge and the SMRID to support Lethbridge County's application for an Alberta Community-lntermunicipal Collaboration Grant to cover the cost of a consultant's study aimed at estimating the total cost and determining the feasibility of creating a regional pathway linking the Town of Coaldale and the City of Lethbridge. 32 V,ExecLuvE, Hies111 :Eyia.vs‘l 400 El ,,ia,s',13yia,, , 4-3 ,1) - HouNe!:ne Amendment to LUB Co Limit Report to, F,st Reading doc TITLE:. k...,:p.,..;,, 'F'A''''-, w 1430 ,A., -nendment to Land Use Bylaw from Rural Urban Fringe (RUE) to Rural General Industrial (R(.3-ti PPPq[ENTER: piir,rv LETHBRIDGE ,............._ COUNTY DATE: October 16, 2014 J'-'1 7""tr DEPARI'Mi:;',NT Communi;tv., Serv:lc,iis 1 F1 ' • , -4-2-C-Lii-ll - - 5" itiailACHMENTS: -;>,- Bylaw 1430 Appr lion :i,- Rezc,[:171, Map Date Depariment supervisor 1 APPROVALS "4....
