INTRODUCTION Introduction - 2 photo credit: Downtown Langley Business Association Introduction - 3 LEGISLATIVE AUTHORITY The legislative authority for the City to adopt an Official Community Plan (OCP) comes from the Local Government Act. Part 14, Divisions 3 and 4 of the Act outlines the required content of an Official Community Plan and describes the procedures a municipality must follow in order to adopt a Plan. This OCP has been prepared in compliance with the legislation. HISTORY & CONTEXT For millennia Indigenous peoples have inhabited the land on which Langley City is located. The Nicomekl River, which bisects the city in half was a key landscape and ecological feature that helped sustain Indigenous livelihoods in the area for travel, trade, food, and agricultural practices. In fact, the word nəq̓ əməq̓ əl̕ (or the anglicized "Nicomekl") comes from the hən̓ q̓ əmin̓ əm̓ language meaning "always flooding", signalling the powerful and dynamic nature of this small but mighty watercourse. The four main Indigenous groups who occupy the land now known as Langley City are the Katzie, Kwantlen, Matsqui, and Semiahmoo peoples. The Nicomekl River offers a snapshot of journeys past: items left behind by Indigenous groups along its banks, perhaps en-route from the coast to the fishing grounds of the lower Fraser Canyon. A route travelled later by European explorers and now marked forever in our history as Portage Park. The establishment of the fur trading fort nearby brought change to the area in the 1830s with increased agricultural activity in the Langley Prairie and the need for resources to support trading activities. Gold miners travelled through what would become Langley City in the late 1850's and 60's to seek their fortunes in the Fraser Canyon and beyond. Some stayed on and were joined by groups of people coming west in search of opportunity and the new settlers began to work the land. A few decades later Langley Prairie found itself at the nexus of change again with the arrival of the Vancouver, Victoria and Eastern Railway in 1908 and the British Columbia Electric Railway in 1909. With it came the first business, a general store opened by an enterprising Quebec migrant. Other businesses soon followed, and the area grew to be the heart of the municipality. This continued growth precipitated the move that shaped history forever when the City separated from Township of Langley in 1955, forging a new, independent future. It was a time where everyone knew each other. We were there to celebrate the good times and to catch one another should we stumble or fall on hard times. The scope of Langley City's Official Community Plan, and the process taken to update it. Introduction - 4 With a rich history and still strong downtown core, Langley City continues to maintain the attractive small-town feel of its Langley Prairie roots. Now home to more than 27,000 residents, it also serves a market area of 10 times its population from surrounding communities. Strategically located, Langley City is a designated regional centre, and the geographic hub connecting Metro Vancouver with the Fraser Valley. Supportive government and social services, an attractive, pedestrian- oriented centre with restaurants, shops and services surrounded by the last of the region's affordable land means the city is brimming with potential. Over the next few decades, Langley City is slated for strong population and job growth. With its compact urban fabric, vibrant historic downtown, a beautiful city across the Nicomekl River valley, and large base of commercial and industrial employment lands, investment in fixed rail rapid transit in the form of SkyTrain is sure to be a major success. Langley City is also home to key regional highways and transit routes. It is host to a major national freight rail corridor, complete with spur lines that serve the core of its industrial lands. Large manufacturers with a national reach and a significant amount of smaller, local companies have made Langley City their home base, making it a hub for the regional economy of both Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, with room yet to grow. This future is only made brighter with a forward-thinking land use plan that emphasizes missing middle and multifamily housing types, targeted mixed use nodes for walkable and complete neighbourhoods, and plentiful employments lands ready to be intensified. Development and growth will accompany rich community amenities for all users, making Langley City one of the most walkable cities in the region and an exciting destination full of beautiful public places. Introduction - 5 OCP UPDATE PROCESS A four phase process was used to create this Official Community Plan and began in earnest in the Spring of 2019. PLANNING Phase 1 produced a significant amount of background research, allowing us to understand and dive into the local challenges and opportunities. This phase examined the ways in which the OCP can properly integrate with the City's existing 'Nexus of Community' vision and all other relevant City strategies, plans, and policies. Phase 2 launched the project with broad public outreach and targeted stakeholder promotion. This phase introduced key issues and trends from the background research. At the end of the phase, a key directions report was developed detailing preliminary land use and policy options. Phase 3 began with drafting the OCP. Once completed, it will be tested in the community both online and at an open house in a second round of engagement. The feedback from the activities will help refine the draft OCP. Phase 4 focuses on making final adjustments to the OCP and guiding it through a bylaw adoption process in accordance with the Local Government Act. PHASE 1 Background Research PHASE 2 Explore Options PHASE 3 Develop Policies & Regulation PHASE 4 Finalize the Plan & Bylaw COMMUNITY & STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT Introduction - 6 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT This OCP was completed with broad and far reaching community engagement. Throughout the update process, input and feedback from community residents and stakeholders was sought, summarized, and incorporated into reports and policy- making, shaping this plan from start to finish. The first step focused on informing residents of the process and gaining high level feedback on four major topics: housing, transportation, jobs, and the environment. Activities included neighbourhood meetings at local schools and community popups at two major festivals (Community Day and Arts Alive). The second step presented the background research to the community and began with a land use and housing forms charrette to understand where growth would best be suited. The results of the charrette were summarized in an online survey and broad policy directions were tested with four stakeholder groups (businesses, community organizations, the development industry, and environmental groups). The third step introduced the draft Official Community Plan to the community. A virtual open house was held where residents were provided the opportunity to comment on the contents of the draft and ask questions to the project team. An online survey was also available for a month long period, which gauge the level of support for the various parts of the OCP. Government agencies and stakeholders were also contacted to provide feedback on the draft. All of the input was summarized in a report to Council with a list of recommended changes to the draft. The fourth and final step involved official referrals to senior levels of government, local First Nations, government agencies, and neighbouring municipalities. The engagement process concluded with a public hearing.

VISION & THEMES Vision & Goals - 12 VISION As you step off the rail platform in the heart of a bustling downtown, a vibrant Langley City emerges. It is a complete and inclusive community, where all feel safe, capable, and valued. There are affordable living options for residents and plentiful jobs and investment opportunities. Langley City boasts a strong, responsive and forward-thinking economy, generated by technological innovation and supportive local services and educational facilities. Langley City is also rich with cultural, entertainment and recreational destinations that strengthen community connections, support healthy lifestyles and create unique and memorable experiences that appeal to locals and tourists alike. Langley City's growth is shaped around rapid transit, its well-established Downtown, and the City's greatest natural asset, the Nicomekl River. Economic development and job growth is also balanced and integrated with new community- wide amenities, environmental solutions that fight climate change, ecological restoration, people-friendly streets and great public places that welcome, connect and nurture all users. Through this OCP and its five big themes, Langley City will achieve its vision as the Nexus of Community and continue to be a highly livable and vibrant City into the future. NEXUS OF COMMUNITY The four pillars of the Nexus of Community, which was adopted by Council in 2018 as a bold new vision for the future of Langley City, are foundational to this Official Community Plan. COMMUNITY CONNECTION EXPERIENCES INTEGRATION Vision & Goals - 13 Affordable Living & Diverse Housing for all Generations A Responsive Economy that Creates New Jobs A Safe & Inclusive Community Rich with Cultural Destinations Environmental Solutions to Fight Climate Change A Highly Connected City Aligned with Rapid Transit 5 BIG THEMES The OCP contains over 150 policies that collectively aim to achieve this vision, and these policies are organized according the Five Big Themes that have emerged as key directions from the OCP consultation process. 03 03. GROWTH, LAND USE & DESIGN Growth, Land Use & Design - 16 GROWTH PROJECTIONS POPULATION, JOBS & HOUSEHOLDS As Langley City was developing this OCP, Metro Vancouver was updating its Regional Growth Strategy, called Metro 2040, and looking to extend its timeline to 2050, now called Metro 2050. With that came new growth projections that have been developed in consultation with member municipalities. The update to the Regional Growth Strategy is intended to align and manage growth policies with Transport 2050 (Translink's new Regional Transportation Strategy), which once completed will guide the future of Metro Vancouver's transportation system for the next 30 years. This comprehensive regional outlook provides Langley City the opportunity to coordinate municipal growth projections with regional ones up to 2050. The following population, employment, and household forecasts account for many factors including the proposed SkyTrain extension through Surrey and into Langley City. They also take into consideration the changing nature of employment markets, an aging workforce, immigration, and increasing automation. While this OCP was completed during the Covid-19 pandemic, the short term impacts of this pandemic are not anticipated to measurably affect these long term projections. By 2050, it is expected Langley City will be home to: 41,438 residents - an increase of 48% or 13,353 residents, from 2019. 22,185 jobs - an increase of 36% or 5,892 jobs, from 2019. 20,125 households - an increase of 56% or 7,259 households, from 2019.

Population Projections Growth, Land Use & Design - 17 HOUSING NEEDS A housing needs report was completed in parallel to this plan and explored both quantitative and qualitative data to help understand the current state of housing and the types of units that will be required in the future. With an outlook of 5 years, the housing needs report determined the following net new units would be required by 2024. Unit Type Net New Units Required (2024) 0-1 bedroom 575 2 bedrooms 442 3 bedrooms 169 4+ bedrooms 167 Figure 2. Housing Unit Needs (2024) The housing needs report also identified key observations and needs that are addressed in this OCP, including: - Single detached homes are not attainable for a large majority of Langley City resident income groups. - Need for a greater variety of ownership housing, with an emphasis on townhouses. - Affordable rental options, especially within the primary rental market. - More aging-in-place housing options and seniors housing for an aging population. - More below-market/non-market, supportive and partnership-based housing options. Growth, Land Use & Design - 18 ASSIGNMENT OF GROWTH This OCP is a departure from historical patterns of growth assigned in Langley City's past. Former OCPs focused on a concentric model of growth radiating from the historic core of the community, outwards to the boundaries of the City. With a SkyTrain extension planned and the need for a more diverse range of housing options and complete communities (especially south of the Nicomekl River), growth is slated to take on a bold new structure. Key elements of the new land use plan include: - The highest densities, tallest buildings and greatest mix of uses around the 196 Street and 203 Street SkyTrain stations and along the Fraser Highway corridor. - Townhomes along future frequent bus routes. - Gentle infill housing forms like secondary accessory units north of Grade Crescent. - An "Innovation Boulevard" along Glover Road, connecting Historic Downtown Core to the Kwantlen Polytechnic University to encourage student housing, tech businesses, start-ups, and maker spaces. - Five new neighbourhood commercial nodes for small scale shops and businesses to enhance walkability in residential neighbourhoods. - Single family homes that can host smaller single detached lots and suites. The land use plan holds a capacity of dwelling units that is intentionally larger than the projected need. This is to provide flexibility in the development market, account for unpredictable future market and demographic changes, and to help address current affordability challenges in Langley City. Unit Type Current Units Total Capacity Apartment 7,260 24,713 Duplex & Townhouse 1,945 6,094 Single Detached 3,760 3,046 Figure 3. Total Capacity by Land Use Designation Growth, Land Use & Design - 19 Considering future growth in Langley City will rely almost exclusively on the redevelopment of existing built up properties, factors such as existing uses, land values versus value of improvements, building age, and distance from planned SkyTrain stations, located near 196 Street and 203 Street, will have a major impact on redevelopment potential. This means many properties that may be designated for future growth may not see the potential within the life of this plan. This is why the total build out of the land use plan is not intended to occur by 2050. Nonetheless, to show how the land use plan includes more than enough capacity to meet the needs of Langley City's projected growth, Figure 3 presents total capacity for apartment units, duplexes and townhouses, and single detached homes. LOCAL FACTORS AFFECTING DEVELOPMENT While there are significant opportunities within Langley City to leverage underutilized properties and ensure projected growth can be accommodated, here are some local factors that require a greater level of regulation and limits on the extent of development within affected areas. Airport Zoning Regulation (AZR) Located just outside of Langley City's eastern boundary, is the Langley Regional Airport (YNJ) which serves light private planes and helicopters. As mandated by the federal Aeronautics Act, and enforced by Transport Canada, an Airport Zoning Regulation (AZR) is in place over all properties within a 4 kilometer radius of YNJ, to ensure safe and unobstructed aircraft operations (shown on Map 16). A key component of the AZR, the Outer Surface, limits the maximum height of any object to 53.95 metres geodetic on properties within the 4 kilometer radius. The Approach and Transitional Surfaces are layered onto the Outer Surface and may further limit maximum building heights on properties within these surfaces. Property owners with an Aeronautics Act covenant (which applies the AZR) on their property are strongly encouraged to consult with Transport Canada regarding maximum allowable building height on their property prior to submitting a development application involving a building over 4 storeys, in addition to consulting with Nav Canada and YNJ on their development proposal and its construction. Floodplain Elevation Bylaw The Nicomekl River bisects the City into two halves and is a very dynamic watercourse prone to flooding. Logan Creek, a tributary of the Nicomekl that runs through the northeast corner of the City also experiences high levels of water that often exceed its banks into the surrounding area. Langley City's Floodplain Elevation Bylaw provides detailed regulations to keep buildings, people and their belongings within them safe from recurring floods. Properties that are subject to the Floodplain Elevation Bylaw are shown on Map 17. Growth, Land Use & Design - 20 LAND USE DESIGNATIONS Each parcel in the City is assigned a land use designation as shown in Map 3. The following table provides direction for the type of development allowed in each designation.

CORNER COMMERCIAL Provides new neighbourhood commercial nodes for small scale shops and businesses to enhance walkability in residential neighbourhoods. Parcels marked by the Corner Commercial overlay may be developed as mixed use projects with commercial ground floor units. NEW PARK AND OPEN SPACE In places that are expected to experience significant growth, this overlay requires new development to contribute land towards new park and open space. This is a key component in the implementation of the OCP's Parks & Open Spaces Network (Map 11). NEW CIVIC FACILITY In anticipation of population growth, the areas identified for a new civic facility are intended to host community buildings that establish a civic, arts and/or cultural presence. POTENTIAL STUDY AREAS These are potential study areas of service commercial lands that, after further study, could potentially change to the Transit-Oriented Core land use around Fraser Highway, Highway 10 and 200 Street, and for potential industrial uses in the Langley Bypass corridor. Growth, Land Use & Design - 29 DESIGNATIONS & ZONES The following land use designation and zone concurrence table establishes the relationship between what is envisioned for the future through land use designations and the applicable zones that will make it happen. The table includes draft zones that are currently under consideration for an updated Zoning Bylaw. These new zones are intended to enable the form of development envisioned by the corresponding land use. Comprehensive Development zones may be considered on a case by case basis. The zone names and other details in the below table may be updated according to the adopted new Zoning Bylaw, to ensure consistency between the OCP and Zoning Bylaw. This table is meant to be aspirational and may not always reflect the exact land use regulations and zones of each property.

In a well-established and growing city like Langley City, urban design plays a critical role in ensuring new development supports walking, cycling, and transit use, enhances neighbourhood character and the environment, and is safe, welcoming and accessible for all people. These four urban design principles will be used to shape new development within key land use areas of the City, through the Development Permit Area Guidelines in this OCP. Growth, Land Use & Design - 31 PRINCIPLES 1. PEOPLE-FRIENDLY BUILDINGS AND STREETS Buildings front streets with 'active' ground floors (windows, entrances, patios, high-quality materials, landscaping) and weather protection to create interesting and comfortable streetscapes, and blocks and neighbourhoods are well-connected with generous sidewalks, comfortable bike paths, and other features that enable people to easily and safely move through the City. 2. GREAT PUBLIC PLACES Public plazas, parks and new streetscapes accompany redevelopment, as human-scaled, comfortable 'outdoor living rooms' and 'people places' that are animated with active uses (stores, cafes, water/play features, and public art) and are designed as safe, accessible, and flexible spaces for all users and a variety of activities. 3. INCLUSIVE, MEMORABLE AND SUSTAINABLE DESIGNS Buildings and public places are accessible and welcoming to all users, use high-quality materials and architecture to create memorable buildings and spaces that enhance neighbourhood character and sense of community, and are designed to conserve energy, reduce environmental impacts and protect ecosystems. Interpretative signs are used as powerful reminders of Indigenous culture and languages. 4. GOOD NEIGHBOURS New buildings are 'good neighbours' to adjacent buildings and public places, by stepping back as they get higher to foster human scale and maximize sunlight at ground level, and being designed to provide reasonable transitions and relationships between buildings and reduce privacy, shadowing, and access impacts. 04 04. POLICIES Policies - 34 1. AFFORDABLE LIVING & DIVERSE HOUSING FOR ALL GENERATIONS As Langley City continues to grow, each neighbourhood will accommodate new residents, with a greater diversity of uses and densities in strategic locations across the City. Langley City will include more affordable and varied housing types throughout the community, while respecting and retaining the special character in its neighbourhoods and maintaining a healthy balance between ownership and rental housing options. Housing will accommodate a diversity of households, from young adults, couples, young families, single parents, to aging adults who choose to age in place. To do this, this OCP Theme and its Strategic Directions support increasing supply and mix of tenures, missing middle housing, renewing purpose- built rental housing, and fostering strategic housing partnerships. STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS 1. Designate a mosaic of land uses. 2. Develop a broader range of zones. 3. Create missing middle options. 4. Increase supply and mix of tenures. 5. Renew purpose-built rental housing. 6. Foster strategic housing partnerships. Policies - 35 POLICIES WHAT THE CITY WILL DO Diverse Housing 1.1.

Building Envelope Repair Building envelope repair work which, in the opinion of the Director of Development Services, complies with the respective Development Permit Area Guidelines. Tenant Improvements Interior renovations that do not result in any substantive change to the external appearance of the building. Minor Site Improvements Minor site improvements including landscaping and paving of parking areas, provided that the value of work is less than $10,000. Incidental Subdivision Subdivisions required by the City for road dedication or other municipal purposes. Development Permit Areas - 72 GENERAL ENVIRONMENTAL GUIDELINES AREA These guidelines apply for development on all properties within the City of Langley. PURPOSE These guidelines are intended to act as objectives to promote energy and water conservation and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in order to implement the strategic directions and policies of this OCP that aim to fight climate change. GUIDELINES Habitat protection + Enhancement 1. Discourage development where mature trees or large tree stands are located. 2. Provide landscaping that includes wildlife habitat, e.g. pollinator plants, migrating bird rest areas. Stormwater 3. On-site stormwater management, including daylighting, detention and infiltration, should be considered in site planning. 4. Use permeable pavers in large paved areas (parking lots and large pedestrian plazas) where appropriate and feasible. Water 5. Use recycled water/rainwater for irrigation (e.g., rain barrel program). 6. Choose drought resistant native plantings for landscaping to reduce water use. 7. Mulch planting beds to a depth of 50 mm to reduce water loss. 8. Limit the area of grass within a landscaped area to a maximum of 50%. 9. Incorporate water use reduction features in buildings and on site (e.g., include grey water recycling system and install low-flow fixtures etc.). Development Permit Areas - 73 Energy 10. Landscape design should consider 'green infrastructure' services, including shading, windbreaks and stormwater management. Deciduous plantings provide shade in the hot summer months while allowing for increased solar gain and providing windbreaks to reduce heat loss in winter months. 11. Where feasible, minimize the use of low albedo (heat-absorbing) surfacing materials to reduce the heat island effect (i.e. use lighter-coloured, more reflective materials). 12. Reduce the heat island effect of a building's roof and heat transfer into the building by using green roofs (which also buffer rainwater flows), Energy Star-rated or high albedo roofing material or other appropriate roofing treatments and materials. 13. Buildings should be sited in such a way as to maximize sunlight into the building and to avoid adverse microclimatic effects on and off site related to wind and shadowing. 14. Improve energy efficiency, e.g. by following the BC Step Code and energy standards such as Energy Efficient LEED. 15. Use renewable energy features such as solar, air source heat pumps, and geothermal energy, where feasible. 16. Include energy efficient fixtures and appliances (e.g. Energy Star) in buildings and on site. 17. Utilize programmable thermostats in individual units (residential and commercial). Construction Disturbance, Material and Waste Reduction 18. Minimize construction disturbance by protecting areas (e.g. tree retention areas) with fencing. 19. Use construction materials with recycled content where possible. 20. Re-use existing building materials where possible. 21. Ensure construction waste is recycled where feasible. Development Permit Areas - 74 GENERAL FORM & CHARACTER GUIDELINES AREA These guidelines apply to development on all properties designated Transit-Oriented Core, Transit-Oriented Residential, Mid Rise Residential, Low Rise Residential, Low Rise Mixed Use, Ground- Oriented, Historic Downtown Core, Mixed Employment, Civic Centre, Corner Commercial, Service Commercial, and Industrial. PURPOSE These guidelines are intended to act as objectives for the form and character of commercial, industrial, and multi-family residential development, in order to implement the strategic directions and policies of this OCP that aim to create walkable, human-scale, attractive, and safe neighbourhoods. ADDITIONAL EXEMPTIONS The following exemptions are in addition to the General Exemptions. Single Detached Dwellings The construction or alteration of single detached dwellings or accessory buildings.

Break up large development sites into a finer-grain block pattern with smaller sites and/or buildings, with publicly accessible streets, lanes and walkways through them. 3. Clearly defined and well lit pedestrian connections shall be provided between site functions (buildings, parking, loading, pedestrian spaces) and to connection points outside the site (e.g. sidewalks and bus stops). 4. Development should provide secure bicycle parking adjacent to primary building entrances. 5. Primary pedestrian spaces should be well lit and visible and should be linked to a comprehensive pedestrian network (e.g. to sidewalks, greenways, bicycle paths). 6. Provide fully accessible building and open space designs, including a site's pathways with smooth and saw cut treatments and primary building entrances for persons with disabilities. 7. Clearly signaled transitions between the public, semi- public, semi-private, and private realms shall be defined to enhance both the privacy of residences and the pedestrian experience, and may include: landscape terracing (e.g. grading retaining), structures (e.g. fences, pergolas, retaining), planting (e.g. low hedges) and/or changes in surfacing materials. Building siting + Orientation 8. Buildings are required to front and engage public streets and open spaces with active and attractive designs. 9. Integrate existing mature trees and vegetation in site design wherever possible. 10. All site designs should locate and orient buildings and open space so as to reduce shadowing on open spaces and minimize other impacts on adjacent buildings and sites, considering access to daylight and sunlight, ventilation, quiet, visual privacy, and view. 11. Design buildings and spaces between them to create comfortable sense of enclosure, through defining street and open space edges with buildings that create a street/open space width to building height ratio of between 1 to 1 to 2 to 1 (for example, building height should be at least half of the width of the adjoining street or open space). 12. Consider perimeter block or 'quadrangle' building layouts to create semiprivate amenity spaces and courtyards in the block interior, and comfortable, framed public open spaces in multi-phase commercial or mixed-use redevelopments. public semi-public semi-private private Development Permit Areas - 76 25m 25m 13. Site and building design may complement adjacent building forms by mirroring and/or aligning with neighbouring roof lines, heights, scale of building masses, building and landscape forms, extending or addressing outdoor spaces. 14. Orient interior amenity uses towards central amenity areas. 15. For development on the edge of a land use change: site and orient buildings so as to best integrate them with and complement adjacent land uses. For instance, loading and service areas should not abut residential properties. 16. Separation between tall building towers (above the 8th storey in Mid Rise Residential areas and 10th storey in Transit Oriented Core and Transit Oriented Residential areas) should be 25 meters or greater. 17. Where possible, tall buildings should be oriented north-south to reduce shadowing impacts. 18. High visibility corner locations should feature buildings that front both streets with active ground floors and feature signature public open space features and spaces (eg. corner cut plazas). 19. Encourage zero interior lot line residential buildings in the Downtown Historic Core, Transit-Oriented Core and Residential and Mixed Use land use areas, provided they include enhanced public open and amenity spaces. Vehicular Access + Parking 20. Provide all parking in secured parkades and minimize above- grade projection of parkade structures. 21. Provide drop-off and loading areas and accessible parking at grade near primary building entrances, where possible. 22. Structured parking and parking lots should be located at the back of buildings, where possible. 23. Where above-ground structured parking is required along street frontages: - the ground floor shall be wrapped by active retail or ground- oriented residential units to maintain an active and attractive streetscape; and, - storeys above the ground floor shall be, wherever possible, wrapped by residential units or other active uses; or shall be wrapped with an attractive façade treatment that complements the overall architectural design of the entire building and includes durable materials and glazing. Development Permit Areas - 77 24. Above-grade parkade walls must be tiered to reduce massing at grade level, and treated and/or screened with brick/stone, stamped concrete/ masonry or other cementitious material facing, colour treatments, landscaping, landscaped berms, public art or combination thereof.

A minimum of one tree is required for every six parking spaces. 26. Off-street parking and loading access should always be taken from the lowest order road. Where this is not possible, driveways accessing from arterial roads or fronting streets should be consolidated to minimize the number of access points. 27. Loading and service areas, including garbage and recycling facilities, must be concealed, preferably within a building, and accessed from a lane or rear of the building. Minor, on street loading areas may be considered provided that they do not create conflict with the pedestrian-oriented nature of an area and/or vehicle movements. Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) 28. Apply CPTED principles to building and open space design, in accordance with the City's CPTED checklist. ARCHITECTURE Massing + Articulation 29. Incorporate "good neighbour transitions" by stepping building heights and massing to relate to adjacent buildings and open spaces to soften height transitions, mitigate adverse microclimatic effects (wind tunnels, shadowing) and maintain view corridors. 30. Reduce the apparent mass of buildings through roof design and façade articulation, materials, and colours. Development Permit Areas - 78 31. Break up long building faces with architectural breaks, such as building projections and recesses. Uniform building faces over 50 metres are prohibited. 32. Design buildings to include three recognizable 'base', 'middle' and 'top' elements, achieved through cornices or other architectural features, projections, building step backs, and changes in building shape/massing, materials, colours and window/balcony placement, and design. A step back or material/colour change is encouraged to differentiate the ground floor of a commercial or mixed- use building from the rest of the façade; this approach is also encouraged with multifamily buildings, where a step back or material/colour change can occur above the 1st or 2nd storey. 33. Step back building façades, above the 6th storey, along streets and public open spaces, through the use of façade articulation, balcony design, cornices/reveal lines and material and colour changes. In the Transit Oriented Core and Transit Oriented Residential land uses this step back can be located at the top of the 8th storey for taller buildings. This step back does not apply to high-rise tower portions of 'tower and podium' buildings as described in Guideline 34. 34. Design high-rise buildings in a tower and podium form. The podiums shall be at least 6 metres high and the ground level shall include windows and entrances that address streets and open spaces. Taller podium buildings are supported if there is reasonable vertical and horizontal façade articulation that provide variations, breaks, massing step backs and landmark architecture and enhanced public open and amenity space designs. Where podium buildings are taller than 4 storeys, design tower components to be visually distinct from podium buildings, through façade features and articulations that extend from the ground floor to the top of towers, and stepping podium building facades back from adjoining tower facades. 35. All building portions that are taller than 8 storeys within the Mid-rise Residential, Mixed Use and University District land uses should have a floorplate of approximately 750 m² or less to achieve a slender, landmark shape. This floorplate also applies to building portions taller than 10 storeys in the Transit Oriented Residential and Transit Oriented Core land uses. Entrances 36. Orient building entrances toward - and make them visible to - fronting street(s). 37. Entrances shall be prominent feature on a building face, and may be recessed while ensuring visibility between entry doors and the street and sidewalk. Facades + Roofs 38. Avoid blank or undifferentiated facades, particularly along fronting streets and primary pedestrian paths. Where they cannot be avoided, blank facades visible from roads should be treated with landscape, architectural feature(s), material and colour variations, or artwork so as to cover at least 50% of the blank surface. Development Permit Areas - 79 39. Use high quality exterior finishes to create attractive facades and ensure building envelope integrity. Designs that complement the surrounding areas and durable and low maintenance materials like stone, brick, metal, and cementitious tile/siding are encourgaged. Stucco and other similar materials are prohibited. 40. Provide balconies and roof gardens as amenity space. 41. RCABC certification is required for flat roofs. Materials 42. High quality and durable exterior finishes should be used to ensure the integrity of the building envelope. 43.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS Lighting Development Permit Areas - 81 very bad not this bad but this better best 63. Lighting should mitigate light pollution, directing lighting downwards though use of full cut off fixtures. Exceptions may be made for accenting signage, architectural elements, and landscape features. 64. On-site lighting should be sufficient to provide clear orientation and personal safety and site security. Ensure continuous lighting along mandatory connections: between parking, entrances and public sidewalks and clearly identify their termini (entrances, parking and loading areas, etc.). 65. Do not light areas that are not intended for nighttime use. Focus lighting on priority pathways that provide connection between key destinations that people use at night. 66. Encourage innovative lighting approaches, including the use of LED strip and accent lighting and neon-like applications, for landmark buildings and spaces within the Historic Downtown, Transit-Oriented Core areas adjacent to the SkyTrain corridor, and the Innovation Boulevard/KPU corridor. Ensure these approaches do not result in nuisance light spill on adjacent residential units and areas. Signage 67. Signage should reflect or complement the site's architectural character and be approved by the project architect, if applicable. Utilities, Mechanical Services and Servicing 68. Mechanical / utility cabinets and transformer pads (units) shall be located at the rear of the property, behind the building. Where this is not achievable, units may be located at the edge of the side or front setback and must be incorporated into landscaped areas and screened from the street. PUBLIC OPEN SPACE Development Permit Areas - 82 69. Locate public open spaces, such as plazas, squares and pocket parks, at the northeast and northwest corner of intersections, along major streets and at public walkway connections that intersect with streets, to take advantage of the south and west aspects and create prominent and safe public places with clear sightlines into, through and out of these spaces. 70. Wherever possible, design these spaces to have a minimum width of about 15 metres and a maximum width of 30 metres. These spaces can be located on a single property or shared between assembled properties. 71. Ensure public open spaces are framed by buildings and/or vertical elements on at least two sides. 72. Locate a building with an active ground floor (retail, restaurants, café, patios) directly adjacent to and interfacing with at least one side of these spaces. In larger plazas and open spaces, pavilions are encouraged to create activity nodes and visual interest. Pavilions shall be designed to have transparent glazing on least three sides. 73. Adjoining buildings and vertical elements shall frame these spaces with a minimum two storey expression. 74. All public plazas and squares will be designed to encourage public gathering and shall include elements such as: 74.1 A hard-surface area of at least 50%. 74.2 Accessible 'one-level' designs that provide ease of access and use for all users. 74.3 Seating and other appropriate street furniture. 74.4 Public art, water features and other elements that promote pedestrian interest and provide shade and respite. 74.5 Generous use of trees to provide canopy, define pedestrian spaces and provide comfort, shade and interest. Use of other vertical elements to define pedestrian-scale spaces is also encouraged. 74.6 Fronting buildings shall address the node with active frontages, architecturally distinctive façades, and high- quality streetscape treatments. 74.7 A portion with weather protection coverage to facilitate year- round use. 74.8 A mix of hard and soft landscaping that does not impede safety (ie. sightlines) and accessibility. 74.9 Sightlines to commercial uses and building entrances. 74.10 Pedestrian oriented lighting. 74.11 Three-phase electrical and non-potable water connections 74.12 Wayfinding. DOWNTOWN AND COMMERCIAL FORM & CHARACTER GUIDELINES Development Permit Areas - 83 AREA These guidelines apply to commercial development on all properties designated Transit-Oriented Core, Transit-Oriented Residential, Mixed Use, Historic Downtown Core, Civic Centre, and Corner Commercial. PURPOSE These guidelines are intended to act as additional objectives to the General Form & Character Guidelines for commercial development in areas where a compact, human-scaled, and pedestrian-oriented built environment is key. SITE PLANNING Siting + Orientation 75. The siting of new buildings shall define the street wall by fronting directly onto the street (at their zoning setback minimums) and/ or by aligning with adjacent buildings along the street, allowing for variations of up to 1m for ground floors. 76. Wherever possible, locate off-site traffic control, utility and transformer boxes away from major pedestrian pathways and intersection waiting areas on adjoining public streets and open spaces. 77. In cases where a building cannot provide street wall definition, street edge continuity shall be achieved through landscape elements such as trees, fencing and hedging and/or architectural features. Outdoor Spaces 78. Establish "eyes on the street" and a strong street presence by placing active uses in street-fronting ground floors or locating active pedestrian outdoor spaces (e.g. plazas, courtyards) to address fronting streets (e.g. extended porches, recessed entries, and upper floor balconies). 79. Plazas and courtyards should be framed by buildings on a minimum of two sides to create well defined edges. The buildings should have active uses facing the plaza such as shop entrances, food/beverage, or recreation with transparent window glazing, entrances and patio/outdoor seating.

IMPLEMENTATION Implementation - 96 ENGINEERING SERVICES POLICIES Engineering services comprise the basic infrastructure need for sustaining the City of Langley and its residents, and the future growth as envisioned by the land uses and policies of this OCP. The following objectives are key to successfully implementing the OCP, and ensuring the needs of a growing City are met. WATER SUPPLY 6.1. Ensure an uninterrupted high quality water supply and distribution network to serve the projected population for the year 2050. SANITARY SEWER/WASTEWATER 6.2. Ensure adequacy of the sanitary sewerage network for all new development and employ required upgrades to accommodate and guide projected growth to the year 2050. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT 6.3. Ensure system adequacy for facilitating anticipated changes in land use and density. 6.4. Require on-site retention/detention of storm water for redevelopment projects (densities higher than single family). 6.5. Identify appropriate storm water servicing requirements for single family home developments in Suburban Residential land use areas. 6.6. Proceed with future development and re-development while protecting and enhancing the overall health of streams/creeks in the City. SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT 6.7. Work with Metro Vancouver to achieve it's long term zero waste goals. TRAFFIC/TRANSPORTATION 6.8. Achieve transportation-related objectives outlined in the City's Official Community Plan by contributing to a sustainable community and multi-modal transportation access to and within the City. Implementation - 97 ALIGNMENT WITH OTHER PLANS Langley City has many plans and strategies that provide direction for planning and development, the environment, transportation, engineering, and parks, recreation, and culture. Some of these plans and strategies already generally align with the OCP and may require a small update, while others may require a rethink in the approach and the outcomes. In other instances, there are gaps in strategic direction and oversight for important geographic areas or topics within the city. Regardless, updates or creation of new plans or strategies must consider and align with the OCP. PLANS TO UPDATE There are a number of plans that have a direct impact on the growth and development of the city that should be updated following adoption of the OCP as part of the implementation strategy. The following is a list of plans that must be updated and undergo a critical review to align with the vision, policies and regulations of this OCP. - Zoning Bylaw - Affordable Housing Strategy - GHG Targets & Reductions Strategy - Parks, Recreation, & Culture Master Plan - Master Transportation Plan - Infrastructure & Servicing Master Plans - Development Cost Charge Bylaw - Economic Development Strategy - Subdivision & Development Servicing Bylaw - Engineering Design Criteria Manual - Hazard Risk & Vulnerability Analysis - Sign Bylaw PLANS & STRATEGIES TO CREATE The following plans and policies do not exist and would further support the vision, policies, and regulations of this OCP. - Community Safety & Policing Strategy - Urban Forest Plan and/or Tree Management Bylaw - Amenity Contributions and Bonusing Policy - Glover Road Innovation Boulevard Plan - Public Realm Plan for SkyTrain Guideway and Core & Shoulder Streets - Heritage Resource Reference Guide Implementation - 98 MONITORING PROGRESS The long term vision described in this plan and its accompanying objectives and policies will take many years to achieve. To ensure the City is headed in the right direction, this section provides a high-level framework to help City Council, City staff, and the broader community measure and monitor progress. In order to measure and monitor progress, the following types of reports are expected to be created by staff and received by Council: - an annual summary detailing development activity and alignment with the OCP's land use plan. - a comprehensive OCP implementation report completed every five years. Aligned with Census data, a baseline report can be completed using the 2021 Census. The comprehensive report should include a set list of indicators to monitor against the OCP's five Goals. These indicators will be developed once the OCP is adopted. 07. REGIONAL CONTEXT STATEMENT 07 Regional Context Statement - 100 REGIONAL CONTEXT STATEMENT The purpose of the Regional Context Statement is to identify the relationship between the Official Community Plan and Metro Vancouver's Regional Growth Strategy (RGS) and how the OCP will be made consistent with the RGS over time. Metro Vancouver's RGS includes 5 goals to help shape land use and future development across the region. Goal 1 | Create a Compact Urban Area Goal 2 | Support a Sustainable Economy Goal 3 | Protect the Environment and Respond to Climate Change Impacts Goal 4 | Develop Complete Communities Goal 5 | Support Sustainable Transportation Choices The following pages outline the relationship between the RGS & this plan, and more specifically, the way in which this OCP's policies address each one of the five goals. Regional Context Statement - 101 RGS GOAL 1: CREATE A COMPACT URBAN AREA As a fully built out city 10km2 in area, Langley City can only grow through redevelopment and by intensifying existing land uses. The land use policies within this OCP focus that growth in close proximity to transit, park amenities, services, and infrastructure.
