THE CORPORATION OF THE
CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM

MEMORANDUM

BR. Kirk DATE: October 2, 1991
City Administrator

FROM: LR. Zahynacz, P. Eng.
City Engineer

SUBJECT: Dominion Pump Station - Riverwood Development
(Public Works Committee Meeting of October 1, 1991)

That the Council authorize Fremont Holding Ltd. to reconstruct the Dominion Pump
Station and associated ditch improvements to the City’s requirements at an estimated

cost of $700,000.

That Council agree in principle to waive the Drainage DCC’s that would normally apply
to property owned by Fremont Holdings Lid. by the amount of the cost of the pump
station and ditch improvements. '

As noted in the comprehensive development plan for the Northeast Sector, City policy requires
that the Dominion Pump Station and associated drainage works be upgraded prior to the
development of Phase 1 of the Northeast Sector.

The upgrading of the Dominion drainage system includes installation of 4 fourth pump at the
Pump Station, reconstruction of the major drainage ditches and culverts leading to the Dominion
Pump Station, all of which is estimated to cost $700,000 (including 30 percent for engineering
and contingencies). With these improvernents, the Pump Station capacity would increase from

43 cfs to 143 cfs.

The attached letter from Hamilton Associates dated September 25, 1991 presents an offer from
Fremont Holdings Ltd. (the major property holder in Riverwood) to design and construct the
Pump Station and associated drainage works provided that the City of Port Coquitlam waive the
estimated construction costs of $700,000 from the drainage development cost charges to be

assessed to their property.

Mr. Grant Anderson, City Solicitor advises that an agreement would be required between
Fremont Holdings Ltd. and the City of Port Coquitlam under Section 983(a) of the Municipal

Act (see attached).
