Staff Report to Council Application No.: 7922-0205-00 Planning & Development Report Page 2 RECOMMENDATION SUMMARY • Approval to draft Development Permit for Form and Character. • Approval for the Development Variance Permit to proceed to Public Notification DEVIATION FROM PLANS, POLICIES OR REGULATIONS • Proposing to vary CD Bylaw No. 16767 in order to reduce the number of required off-street parking spaces from 160 to 95. RATIONALE OF RECOMMENDATION • The proposal complies with the "Park" designation in the City Centre Plan Area. • The proposed additional to the Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre will provide a valuable public amenity to residents in the City Centre community, and more generally for the City of Surrey. • Both the existing partially covered skate park and outdoor hockey/basketball facilities located within Tom Binnie Park to the immediate south of the Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre, not included in the development application, will remain open. • The proposed expansion to the Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre is energy efficient, aligning with the Passive Design target under the Canadian Green Building Council’s Zero Carbon Building energy performance level, and achieves an attractive architectural built form, which utilizes high quality, natural materials, and contemporary lines. • The proposal includes a substantial amount of both passive and active landscaping, including a children’s play area and urban agriculture feature. • As part of the subject development application a parking capacity analysis was undertaken by Steer Group to assess the current parking demand and supply at the Chuck Bailey Recreation Facility as well as future supply requirements based on estimated future demand. The study, which took place in December 2021, found an overall peak demand of approximately 61 parking spaces for the existing Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre. • Based on a linear relationship between the surveyed parking demand and the proposed gross floor area of the expanded Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre the peak demand for off-street parking is projected to increase from approximately 61 to 72 parking spaces. • As the parking capacity analysis found a high demand for accessible parking stalls existed within the existing Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre the proposal includes 7 accessible parking stalls, which exceeds the Zoning Bylaw requirements.
