WV development charges rise

WEST VANCOUVER

Municipal council has
introduced a new
development cost

charge by-law that, if
adopted, will make the
first increase to the cur-
rently ‘‘inadequate’’
rates since 1978.

The proposed by-law
would levy varying develop-
ment cost charges in four of
the five designated areas of
West Van — west of Nelson
Creek, east of Nelson Creek,
east of Cypress Creek, (west
of the existing deyelopment),
and the Infill, or remainder
of the municipality — which
would better reflect ‘‘real’’
costs to the community. The
Caulfeild area has been ex-
cluded as development is cur-
rently under a land use
contract.

Development cost charges
are imposed to provide funds
to assist the municipality in
paying the capital costs of
providing, altering or expan-
ding sewerage, water,
drainage, highway facilities
and park space in order to
serve, directly or indirectly,
the development in question.

Under the by-law, persons
obtaining building permits,
for the construction or altera-
tion of buildings for purposes
other than the construction
ef three of fewer self-
contained dwelling units,
would be obligated to pay the
applicable development codt
charges.

Also, where the develop-
ment does not refer to the
stipulated residential pur-
poses, the charges would be
imposed when the cumulative
value of the work in any
12-month period = exceeds
$25,000.

Of the four areas affected
by the new by-law, the Infill
would sustain the greatest
total cost change, one of 194
per cent from $1,065 per
development unit in 1978 to
the proposed $3,130.
However, in comparison to
the other designated areas,
the Infill woul dstill maintain
the lowest overall cost
charges.

Council referred the by
law to the Inspector of
Municipalities for considera
tion and also to the Advisory
Planning Commission = for
review and comment.
