Port Moody’s Development Future on Agenda for Tuesday’s Meeting

The Tri-City News – Port Moody’s development future on agenda for Tuesday’s meeting.

Future Conceptual Drawing of Moody Town Centre

Future Conceptual Drawing of Moody Town Centre

Port Moody residents interested in proposed development guidelines for neighbourhoods like the western gateway and Moody Centre should attend Tuesday night’s council meeting.

Staff will be presenting the draft official community plan and discussing options for public consultation.

Most of the changes proposed in the draft OCP are in Moody Centre, where the city is pursuing transit-oriented design principles to increase density around the Evergreen Line stations. The vision for areas around the Ioco and Moody Central stations suggests the most significant changes within a 400- and 800-metre radii (or five- to 10-minute walking distance) of the stations, including high-rise towers.

A Tale of Two Cities – Novel funding plan could kick-start southeast LRT

If only we charged a Community Revitalization Levy in Vancouver….(tongue in cheek).  It’s amazing how Vancouver has been addicted to Community Amenity Contributions (CACs) for almost 30 years but some cities are just starting to figure it out.   

“Told repeatedly that there’s no way to afford the southeast LRT for perhaps decades, Ald. Shane Keating will bring another fundraising idea to council Monday.

He’ll ask colleagues to explore whether the same complicated funding scheme that finally got the East Village redeveloped can also deliver his southeast ward’s long-awaited dream project.

Some colleagues say it’s a long-shot proposal, but Keating said he’ll test it “rather than sitting here and having no money.”

“Let’s find the money instead of (saying), ‘I want to steal it from wherever,’ ” he said.

After finishing the nearly $1.5-billion west LRT, the city has a group of more modest and partially completed transit projects slated for the next decade: special bus-only lanes down 17th Avenue S.E., bus-only lanes partway up Centre Street, and the first phase of a new southeast “busway” road that will eventually become LRT to the south hospital.”
