THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM

There was also one area of potential development which
was left out of the original hy-law. This consists of the land
between Mary Hill and the industrial area basically following
Pitt River Road.

. The City Engineer has now prepared a revision to the
Watex Development Cost Charge By-law taking into account the
above factors and also an increase in the cost of installing
watermains. Supplementary information supporting the revised
charges has been distributed to the Mayor and Aldermen. The
table below summarizes the changes in costs from the previous
by-law to the proposed revision.

AREA . EXISTING RATE PROPOSED RATE

1. $ 4,270 per ha $ 3,940 per ha

2 $ 124 per 100 m* $ 160 per 100 m2

$ 250 per dwelling $ 330 per dwelling
unit unit

570 per dwelling
unit 570 dwelling
unit

$ 1,460 per net ha $ 5,260 net ha

~ $ 205 dwelling
unit

Council will note that the only drastic change in the
costs is in area 5 which is the south end of Mary Hill and this
is because the development cost charge now includes the cost of
bringing the water to the boundaries of the area, If this
$5,260 per net ha is translated inte the cost for a normal
residential subdivision, it would result in a charge of about
$350.00 per dwelling unit.

The Comiitteea recommends that the Water Development
Cost Charge By=Iaw No. e@ amended to incorporate the new
charges as proposed. I believe that the City Clerk will have
a by-law incorporating these changes available for first three
readings if Council so wishes to proceed with a revised by-law.

Respectfully submitted,
