  1. Urban Development Institute - Calgary 2010 Annual Report Vol. XII November 30, 2010

  2. Message from the Executive Director Dear UDI – Calgary Membership: On behalf of the Urban Development Institute – Calgary, I would like to respectfully submit the 2010 year in review. What another challenging and rewarding year! While the year did not feature the frenetic pace of development of some of the previous years, it did mark the beginning of a recovery from the economic downturn bringing with it the now familiar challenges and opportunities confronting our industry – responding to growth pressures and serving the needs of Calgarians. I continue to be amazed at the dedication of the UDI membership. From the Board of Directors through to the 140 volunteers that keep things moving, UDI – Calgary is very fortunate to enjoy the dedication and expertise of it’s volunteers. By the same token, UDI – Calgary has worked hard to maintain a strong working relationship with our closest partners at the City of Calgary who benefit greatly from the work of our volunteers. As you will see in the pages of this review, there is a staggering amount of work and coordination occurring with The City. That is not to say there have not been challenges, however the strength of the relationships is such that the solutions are being found to the benefit of all Calgarians.

  3. Message from the Executive Director - continued The new Municipal Development Plan continues to present implementation issues for our membership, but as with other tests, our industry will rise to the challenge. In closing, I would like to thank the UDI – Calgary staff for all of their hard work this past year. They make coming to work each day a pleasure. We are all looking forward to an exciting 2011! Michael Flynn Executive Director

  4. Board of Directors At the 2010 UDI – Calgary Annual General Meeting, there were some changes to the structure of the Board of Directors. Don McLeod will finish his term as Chairman. In addition, at a subsequent Board meeting, Don Merlo was named as the Vice Chair and he will become the Chairman in January of 2011. Michael Dutczak and Paul Taylor will step down from the Board at the completion of their terms this year. The following pages provide information on just some of the issues the Board has been working on in the past year.

  5. Board of Directors Initiatives Financing Municipal Infrastructure Report On June 30th, 2010 City Administration released a report entitled, “Financing Municipal Infrastructure: Sharing the Capital Costs and Financial Risk of Residential Growth in Calgary”. In a joint letter from UDI – Calgary and the Canadian Home Builders Association – Calgary Region, the building and development industry came together to reject the report, largely because it did not adequately capture the spirit and intent under which they had agreed to participate in the exercise or the conclusions that were discussed. In particular, the exploration of alternative funding and financing options which enhance the transparency, accountability and responsibility of the costs of growth were not addressed.

  6. Board of Directors Initiatives2011 Standard Development Agreement Negotiations December 31st, 2010 will mark the termination of the previous 5 year Standard Development Agreement (SDA). The UDI Board of Directors has been meeting with City Administration over the past several months to discuss all aspects of the agreement with special scrutiny to the acreage assessment levies which are under review. These discussion will continue into the new year and result in a new agreement for an as yet unspecified term.

  7. Board of Directors InitiativesVotecalgary.ca In the summer of 2010, our industry launched votecalgary.ca, an interactive initiative aimed at educating and engaging the almost 30,000 Calgarians who work in Calgary’s housing and development sector to vote in the City’s October 18 municipal election.  Through the votecalgary process we engaged over 75 candidates on our website, conducted 50 candidate videos, held face to face candidate meetings, hosted two very successful candidate forums, released professional polling on all 14 wards and produced an education package dispelling misconceptions about our industry.  Through these strategies we have broken down barriers with City Council and the general public for our industry.  By modeling the open and transparent approach we expect of government we have positioned ourselves as thought leaders, information resources and, most importantly, we have opened up doors to have the important conversations we need to have to be successful in our businesses.

  8. Building a Better Calgary: Up, Out and In There have been many misconceptions regarding what we, as an industry, fund in the development of Calgary’s new communities. Building a Better Calgary: Up, Out and In was created to dispel these misconceptions by providing the most current information on the continued role we play in developing Calgary. The document places a focus on growth, infrastructure and funding as well as housing affordability and choice.

  9. Project Manager Update 2010 has been an exceptionally busy year for UDI – Calgary and its volunteer members. Our Committees and Task Forces have been working diligently to negotiate positive changes to the 2011 Development Agreement and the 2011 Standard Specifications for Sewer/Water, Landscaping and Roads. The 11 Committees and 7 Task Forces are focused on planning policies, development agreements, construction specifications, environmental and water related issues, submission standards, ER setbacks, regional/municipal issues and more (information regarding the Committees, Task Forces, and their contributions, follows in this report). UDI - Calgary relies heavily upon volunteers and through the contribution of their time, effort, valuable knowledge, planning experience and technical expertise, we are able to effectively participate in process and policy reviews, negotiations, and relevant discussion on a vast range of development issues with the City of Calgary and other municipalities. On behalf of the UDI Administration, I would like to express our appreciation to our dedicated committed Volunteers for the generous gift of their time and resources! Bev Jarvis Project Manager

  10. Development Agreement/Levy Negotiations The Development Agreement was finalized in April 2010, with only minor revisions. Mark Wynker, Chris Ollenberger and Chris Plosz played key roles in the negotiations of both the Development Agreement and Standard Specifications, assisted by dedicated volunteers from various Committees and Task Forces. In 2010, the levies/fees increased by 5.36%, based on the 2009 & 2010 blended average between the City of Calgary and the National (Statistics Canada) increase/decrease of the non-residential building construction price index. Community & Recreation Levy $ 50,988 Transportation Assessment Levy $ 66,910 Traffic Signage and Road Markings $ 646 Inspection Fee $ 2,326 Storm Sewer Levies Bow River  $ 2,423 Elbow River  $ 211 Fish Creek  $ 211 Nose Creek  $16,120 Pine Creek  $ 3,266 Shepard  $43,408 …continued

  11. Development Agreement/Levy Negotiations -continued The Developer Funded Infrastructure Stabilization Fund (Oversize Fund) per hectare rates remained unchanged: Utilities $ 5,000 Major Roads $11,800 Community & District Parks $ 5,500 For further information on changes made to the 2010 Development Agreement, please refer to Information Bulletin #110 on the UDI website www.udicalgary.com. A copy of the 2010 Standard Development Agreement is also available on the website under the “Documents of Interest” tab. With the expiration of the term of the current Development Agreement, UDI - Calgary and Urban Development commenced negotiations for the 2011 Agreement in February 2010. Critical aspects of the negotiation are the levies and fees, as well as issues related to payment of municipal infrastructure. The Development Agreement, the Parks and Water/Sewer Specification negotiations are progressing well and should result in resolution of the majority of proposed changes for the coming year.

  12. Technical Negotiations Numerous changes were made to the 2010 Water, Sewer, Roads and Landscape Standard Specifications to address issues/deficiencies that were identified by both UDI and The City of Calgary. A detailed listing of all specification changes can be found at the front of each Standard Specification book. As well, a summary of the changes has been documented in following Bulletins: Technical Bulletin #99 Standard Specifications for Sewer Construction Technical Bulletin #100 Standard Specifications for Waterworks Construction Technical Bulletin #101 Standard Specifications for Landscape Construction Technical Bulletin #102 Standard Specifications for Roads Construction The 2011 spec negotiations have been underway since January 2010. UDI has been working with Urban Development, Roads, Water Resources and Parks, in an effort to finalize all specifications for publication by January 2011.

  13. Pavement Task Force As part of the 2010 Technical negotiations for Roads Specifications, the Pavement Task Force, consisting of Chris Plosz, Jim Montgomery, Sandy McIntosh, and Nazim Lalani oversaw minor revisions to a few of the specification drawings. In 2011, we anticipate a more comprehensive review of the Roads specifications, particularly with regard to winter paving mix, pavement design life, properties of crushed based course gravel, compaction requirements and damages to monolithic sidewalks. For a complete summary of the changes made to the 2010 Standard Specifications for Roads Construction, please refer to Technical Bulletin #102, which can be found on UDI’s Website.

  14. Planning Committee In 2010, the Planning Committee was extremely busy reviewing and providing comment on a multitude of City of Calgary policy documents and initiatives. Under the leadership of Co-Chairs Sue Paton and Sean Nolan, the Committee addressed the following: • City-wide Transit Oriented Development Strategies • Implementation issues associated with the Municipal Development Plan (MDP) and the Calgary Transportation Plan (CTP) • Issues associated with Land Use Bylaw 1P2007 • Calgary Wetland Compensation Plan • Municipal Reserve credit and allocation of reserve land • Draft Smart Growth Incentive System • The City’s Sustainable Planning, Development & Building Best Practices initiative. • Affordable Housing & Secondary Suites initiatives • Monitoring Regional Planning Issues • Methodology for calculating density • Calgary Metropolitan Plan …continued

Over the past year, the Committee also dedicated numerous hours reviewing and documenting industry concerns pertaining to the new MDP and CTP.

  16. ER Setbacks (Stream Classification and ER Setback Policy) Land taking for ER setbacks and streams has become increasingly more important to the development industry with the recent trend for more and more land to be taken as ER. In May 2010, UDI created a Task Force to investigate the key factors and to develop a strategy for advancing our concerns. The Task Force consists of David Allen (Chair), Richard Geleta, Nick DeCarlo, Chris Davis and Kelly Blenkin. Current issues under discussion include: • Clarifying the definition of an ER setback/stream • How does slope, cover type and hydraulic connectivity affect analysis • Credit versus non-creditable reserve, i.e. taking land without compensation • What are other federal/provincial/municipal jurisdictions doing? • Analysis of legal and scientific factors • What are the requirements under the MGA and are current practices in accordance with the legislation.

  17. Urban Densification Committee The role of the Urban Densification Committee is to provide leadership and guidance to City of Calgary, the Development Industry and Calgarians as the City moves toward increased density in the urban core. With the adoption of the new MDP /CTP, this Committee’s work is increasingly more significant, collaborating with government/stakeholders to review and evaluate priorities, policies and implementation processes related to urban area planning. The Committee of Jaydan Tait (Chair), Ben Lee, Richard White, Glen Pardoe, Alex Ferguson, Linda Hackman, Chris Ollenberger and Rick Lewis addressed: • The City of Calgary policy documents related to Centre City Urban Design Framework, Brownfield development, the Downtown Underpass Design Guidelines, the Centre City Open Space Plan and Programs for the Quality & Quantity of Sustainable Development & Buildings in Calgary • Implementation/sustainment issues associated with the new Land Use Bylaw 1P2007, including the Beltline Land Use Districts and transitioning Downtown Land Use Districts into the new Bylaw • Transit oriented development policies and their impact on the industry and the City of Calgary • Fire Department emergency access standards/fire design principles • The CPAG approval process and ways to reduce delays • Analysis of density bonusing for the city core • Review of City of Calgary Construction & Demolition Site Management Code of Practice • Initiatives associated with the education of City of Calgary and Industry regarding the Urban Densification Committee • Suspended construction sites • Review of the Centre City Redevelopment Levy • Beltline related issues, including a land value study and infrastructure monitoring reports

These include: Urban Landscape, Water Management, Transportation, Technical Negotiations, Electronic Submissions, Environmental, Shallow Utilities/Streetlighting and Pavement (please refer to the information provided for each Committee/Task Force with a summary of relevant issues). The expiration of the term of the current Development Agreement and lifting of the moratorium for Standard Specifications changes with associated cost increases, have culminated in an extraordinary volume of specification changes being proposed by the City of Calgary. In addition, there have been a number of emerging issues resulting in an extremely busy 2010 for this group. Issues addressed by this year’s Technical Committee included: • Review of Roads, Water, Sewer and Landscape Standard Specifications • Working with Water Resources on process improvement strategies to address approval timelines • Administration/investment of the DFISF (oversize fund) …continued
