Staff Report

to

Protective Services Committee

Date: November 27, 2018

Department: Administration (on behalf of the Building, Bylaw and Fire Departments)

Subject: Departmental Update

Background This report provides committee with a comprehensive update on the current activities of the building, bylaw and fire departments. Building Department:

- To date Building department is operational with 4 full time Inspectors, 2 front support personal and 1 Manager. We have created a short term relief list of Inspectors to maintain Building Inspection personal levels- when required for holiday, sick time relief.

- We continually plan team building events to maintain moral - Response from the community with respect to providing service is still very positive. Continual

follow up emails complimenting and thanking our team for the service they have provided. - We have created a guideline for the Development community to be able to submit “Place Holder

applications. These are to allow their proposed projects to be submitted in an incomplete but substantial manner to allow the date stamp of submission for permit to secure their review under the 2012 BCBC. As of December 10th the 2018 BCBC is in effect.

- Volume of permit applications for smaller buildings has reduced but applications remain consistent for both larger projects and smaller buildings.

- Planned for discussion is movement towards the step code implantation, review of new data and information from this year’s Energy Step Code groups. To date there has been a bulletin provided by the Energy Committee that addresses the position of Voluntary vs Mandatory implementation. The underlying premise is that the mandatory requirement from Government to Local government to implement the energy step code will be law.

- To date involvement in the Step Code field has not been a priority. As with most Local Governments allocation of resources has been through specific staffing to develop for implementation.


Bylaw Department Staffing Update – We are currently recruiting for up to two new full-time bylaw officers, as well as creating a pool of auxiliary officers to provide coverage if/when needed. Community Liaison Officers – since it’s been some time since our last report to committee, it should be noted that our CLOs busied themselves with participation in a number of Springtime events such as the Wounded Warrior Run (traffic control on BMP), the Polar Plunge fundraiser, the Millstream Village Kid’s Easter Egg Hunt. Through the Summer and now the Fall, they’ve been busy with the Life Safety Expo and Emergency Preparedness events held in concert with the area fire departments and the RCMP, not to mention Halloween and Remembrance Day. All of our Officers have completed the Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design training program. With this training done, we are now in a position to collaborate with the West Shore RCMP on Break and Enter file referrals so as to meet/consult with the owners/residents of crime targeted properties and assist them with prevention recommendations designed to avoid future incidents. Protest Campers at Goldstream Park – Committee members will recall the last 2+ weeks of September when a group of people, protesting homelessness throughout the region, were moved into the Goldstream Park Campground by the Provincial Ministries. The move served to create significant upset and concern within the community. At the onset of the stay, Langford Council quickly responded by directing the Bylaw Enforcement Department to deploy our Community Safety Officers to the neighbourhood for regular protection patrols. These patrols were designed to help residents avoid property crime issues during that period, and were carried out 24 hours each day for the full 2+ weeks. We were assisted with additional patrols done by our contracted security service, and so the coverage supplied overall was substantial and very largely achieved the goal. Regular Casework – this is of course, our basic function, so we shouldn’t overlook the primary work our Officers perform in the areas of regular Bylaw investigations and support provided to our other departments. Noise complaints, soils importation and removal, watercourse protection, building regulations, secondary suites, unsightly properties, burning regulations, garbage dumping, land use – and so much more. At the time of this Committee meeting, our Officers have responded to just over 2,500 complaints for intervention, mediation or enforcement service, and we anticipate seeing the year ending with just over 3000 case files/complaints being addressed. Langford Fire Rescue Community Events – Our Annual Open House, Halloween and the Pumpkin Smash were all hugely successful again this year. We saw about 700 people at the Open House and we gave away approximately 3000 hot dogs on Halloween night at all 3 stations. In addition, we raised $1300 to Muscular Dystrophy and the Burn Fund at the Pumpkin Smash. The events continue to grow each year and become increasingly popular with the community. Ambassador Program – We had two firefighters leaving on November 11 to start a ride-along with West Midlands Fire Brigade in the UK and then off to Dubai to ride-along with the UAE Civil Defence Force. These types of trips are designed, funded and planned by volunteers and I am eager to see what types of new techniques they can bring back to us after their experiences overseas.


Public Alert Notification System (PANS) - We will begin training on the new public alert notification system to allow us to send out notifications to residents affected by an emergency. This can be a local neighbourhood right up to an event affecting the West Shore. Once we have the system set up we will be promoting residents to sign up for the program. Royal Roads Planning for Resiliency Report – We had a group of Royal Roads students who are completing their Master’s in Disaster and Emergency Management Program conduct a survey of Langford’s residents and businesses on how ready they are in the event of an earthquake. Their findings will help focus areas where future education and planning can be done to increase Langford’s resiliency in the event of an earthquake. Staffing – All three firefighter positions allocated in the 2018 budget have now been hired (Chris Spencer, Seth Goodwin and Jenny Reid) and have been great additions for the department. This is the first round of additions to help us be able to have staff at both Station 1 and Station 2. Rapid Damage Assessment – Fire, Engineering and Building staff all took training in conducting a rapid damage assessment of buildings in case of a seismic event. This will create capacity in being able to respond and recover from a large scale emergency by using staff from multiple city departments. We have received a grant to conduct and EOC Essentials Course in February for new city employees. Recommendation That Committee receives the report for information. Respectfully submitted,

West Shore RCMP 2017 Annual Year End Report



P a g e 1 | 25

MESSAGE FROM THE OFFICER IN CHARGE

During the past year, the West Shore Detachment has continued

to be very busy and fully engaged with the community. The

Detachment continues to grow and is a desirable posting

amongst RCMP members, utilizing this reputation to attract

highly skilled and motivated members to the Detachment.

Community support for the Detachment, Members, and staff

remains high. During the past year new members have arrived,

the Detachment has fielded a complete municipal traffic unit, and

will have a full time bike patrol unit on patrol by the summer of

2018. The bike unit will be instrumental in conducting patrols in

high visibility areas, local parks, community events, the Galloping

Goose Trail and will assist in targeting specific crime spikes and

chronic offenders in the West Shore area.

The Municipal Traffic Unit has been active within the West Shore

Community and worked with the General Duty Patrol Officers as

well as our partner agencies. They have focused on our traffic

priorities, as well as addressed issues with Commercial Vehicle

compliance. As a result, compliance by commercial vehicle travelling the West Shore roadways has

improved, which increase public safety on the roads. The Traffic Unit, along with the General Duty Patrol

and Plain Clothes Unit, have also been engaged with organized crime activity and information gathering.

As in previous years, the Detachment is expected to continue its growth, allowing it to maintain pace with

the increase in population in the West Shore and the heavy demands around investigative techniques and

reporting through the justice system. The Detachment is continuing with the General Duty Staffing

Analysis process, with a committee of local members and supervisors reviewing all aspects of the

Detachment and workload issues. Through the diligence collection of statistics and data, and working

closely with experts from E Division Headquarters, a complete picture of workload for the front line

Members is being developed. This will result in recommendations for appropriate staffing levels and the

potential for creating efficiencies within the existing work environment

The West Shore Detachment remains fully engaged in the South Island policing environment and

participate in numerous integrated agencies and units, attend a variety of intelligence sharing meetings and

work closely with the other Municipal and RCMP policing agencies.

The West Shore Detachment continues to have a strong volunteer component with many active volunteers

doing important work for the Detachment and within the West Shore Community.

The West Shore Detachment members, staff, and volunteers pride themselves on their community service

and the high quality investigations and professional service they provide. All staff and volunteers are

proud to represent the Detachment and Community throughout the region. As the Officer in Charge of the

West Shore Detachment, it is my pleasure to provide this report as a snap shot of the work and

Inspector Larry Chomyn West Shore RCMP Detachment

achievements taking place at the Detachment through the dedicated and hard work of all staff and

In 2017, information indicates no change in the top 5 most time consuming CFS from 2016. The most time

consuming CFS were Assist Police/Fire/Ambulance, Motor Vehicle Incidents, Disturbances, Domestic in

Progress, and Traffic Incidents. (Each averaging 590 hours of labour annually)

During 2017, West Shore RCMP received 940 alarms requiring members to attend a location to investigate

the status of the alarm. Investigators determined 706 where found to be “False Alarms” and 207 CFS were

“Cancelled Alarms”. 27 alarms were results of criminal acts . Members spent, on average, 30 minutes per

investigation into each “False Alarm” resulting over 353 hours of labor used to investigate and clear false

alarms. The Detachment is currently developing strategies and policies regarding alarms, which will be

presented and discussed with the communities in the future.

All times for CFS are captured using statistics gathered from “GDSA” and The Police Services Division.

Information collected via West Shore RCMP members use of the Mobile Dispatch Terminal (MDT) in each

Police car when responding to CFS. The Detachment is currently engaged in a policing study “General Duty

Staffing Analysis” (GDSA). The General Duty Staffing Analysis (GDSA) document represents the analysis of

General Duty constable workload using operational data and a computer model. Under normal

circumstances, the GDSA document is created by the senior business intelligence analyst delegated to

conduct the analysis in consultation with the General Duty Staffing Committee (GDSAC) at the detachment.

The goal of the assessment is to provide analysis of General Duty resourcing in West Shore. The results can

be used to efficiently deploy the General Duty constables and determine staffing levels based on time spent

on calls for service and response time to dispatched calls. The primary measure of General Duty workload

is time constables spend in response to calls for service from the public. The General Duty Staffing

Assessment seeks to align the number of General Duty constables available with the number (and type) of

calls for service from the public, operational objectives, service delivery performance targets, and public

and police safety (e.g. the number of free General Duty constables available to respond in an Emergency).

The methodology is supported by the RCMP’s Business Intelligence Call for Service dashboard and the

Managing Patrol Performance (MPP) software. The assessment provides information for detachments and

RCMP executives, as well as municipal and provincial governments.

CRIMINAL CODE OFFENCES – UCR CATEGORIES

est Shore RCMP respond to a vast array of CFS, including Criminal Code & non-Criminal Code

incidents. In order to categorize the CFS, the Uniform Crime Reporting Survey (UCRS)5 serves as a

guide. Each UCR category includes specific codes based on the offence or violation type. CFS are coded

(scored) based on the type of call and subsequent investigation. There are eight UCR categories: Crimes

Against Persons, Offences Against Property, Other Criminal Code (Other CC) Violations, Controlled Drugs &

Substances Act (CDSA) Violations, Other Federal Statute Violations, Provincial Statistics Codes, RCMP

Statistics Codes and Traffic Violations.

Licensed drinking establishments sometimes generate activity requiring a police response. Table 12

illustrates the CFS at licensed premises in West Shore in 2016 & 2017. The number of CFS at locations

differ by establishment, with some establishments having more calls than other establishments. A

comparison of 2016 to 2017 CFS shows decreases in 2016 at some places & increases at other locations.

Overall, there was a 41% increase in CFS in 2017 compared to 2016. With population growth & the

opening of new liquor establishments, we may see increased CFS at these places.

MENTAL HEALTH ACT

est Shore RCMP often respond to calls

where there is a mental health component.

Under the Mental Health Act (MHA), police may

apprehend individuals for their protection and for

public safety. Individuals apprehended under the

MHA are taken to Royal Jubilee Hospital in

Victoria (adults only) or to the Victoria General

Hospital (VGH) (youth only) for medical

assistance. MHA apprehensions are time

consuming, as police officers are required to take

individuals to a physician for examination.

An upward trend continues of CFS with a mental health component (Table 13). In 2017, there were 809

calls, representing a 23% increase over the 657 calls in 2016. These included suicidal persons and Mental

Health Act apprehensions. In 2017, West Shore RCMP responded to 298 calls for service related to suicidal

persons and officers spent 469 hours attending to these types of calls.

When an apprehension is made under the Mental Health Act, the law requires a police officer to bring the

person to a designated medical facility immediately for assessment by a medical doctor. Recently, West

Shore RCMP in collaboration with Vancouver Island Health Authority (VIHA), captured data relating to

“wait times” for medical staff to assess the patient at either Royal Jubilee Hospital or Victoria General

Hospital.

AVERAGE WAIT TIMES FOR 2017/2018:

August – 1.5 hours

September – 2 hours

October – 1.6 hours

November – 1.1 hours

December – 1.2 hours

January – 1.2 hours

The average time per call indicates West Shore RCMP members spend close to 1.5 hours per apprehension.

Times do not factor in investigation time or transit time.

PROLIFIC OFFENDER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (POM)

est Shore RCMP participates in the Prolific Offender Management Program in conjunction with

Municipal Police Agencies, Corrections, Probation, Crown and various Social Agencies throughout

the Southern Island Region. The POM program was created due to the emerging consensus that a small

proportion of offenders commits a disproportionate percentage of crime, particularly property crime. POM

emphasizes inter-agency collaboration as a means to effectively target these individuals, reduce recidivism

and increase community safety.

POM candidates are selected based on several factors, including the number of police contacts, and are then

supported by an integrated team of service providers. Individuals selected to participate in the POM

program receive individually tailored support including employment referrals, housing and income

assistance and assistance with access to mental health and substance abuse treatment. Immediate

response to reoffending or breaching conditions is the second component to the strategy with prompt

apprehension and conviction with the assistance of Crown Counsel who manages files based on custom

prepared POM templates from Police.

Of the fourteen Prolific Offenders in the Greater Victoria Region, West Shore managed 6 offenders in 2017.

During 2017, 5 of 6 offenders were in custody; 3 offenders were incarcerated for more than six months of

the year, 2 were in and out of custody throughout the year and one offender ceased offending. Presently,

West Shore monitors 6

offenders; 4 are in custody

and 2 are in the

community. It is notable

that when these offenders

are incarcerated, property

crimes such as break &

enters, auto thefts and

thefts from motor vehicles

decrease dramatically.

Although 5 of our 6 prolific

offenders were in custody

throughout 2017, together

they had 188 police

contacts during the year.

Five of the six also suffer

from drug &/or alcohol

addictions, which factors

significantly in their criminal offending.

SOCIAL MEDIA

WEBSITE

est Shore RCMP updated their website to reflect the Government of Canada’s website. The transition

was smooth and did not compromise content. The URL remains the same and the site is monitored

and daily. The website contains information pertaining to some of the most commonly asked questions,

including criminal record checks, contact information, volunteer programs and others programs, and the

various services West Shore RCMP Detachment offers. The public is able to view emerging West Shore

RCMP news releases and there is a direct link to Crime Stoppers.

TWITTER

ince February 2015, West Shore RCMP has been

actively engaging the communities on social media

via Twitter (@WestshoreRCMP). The West Shore

RCMP’s Twitter account has the “blue verified badge”,

meaning that Twitter reviewed the account and verified

that it is an authentic account of public interest. The

world is always evolving and the public’s method of

accessing and obtaining information is evolving as well;

many people want information directly from the source, rather than from mainstream media. We endeavor

to provide information in a way that makes it the most accessible to our communities and social media

plays a big role in providing that information to the public.

Some examples of West Shore RCMP’s Twitter activity show we consistently reach over 2500 profile and

have over 50,000 tweet impressions every month. We are reaching more and more members of the

Victoria community to share matters of public

safety and public interest.

West Shore RCMP’s top tweet of the year,

received over 16,000 individual views was:

West Shore RCMP will continue to provide

accurate and timely information to highlight

matters of public safety and public interest, as

well as building trust and confidence of the West

Shore Communities.

COFFEE WITH A COP

“Coffee with a Cop” brings police officers and the community members they serve together, “over a

coffee”, to discuss issues and learn about each other. West Shore is rather unique in the RCMP

police world with 7 distinct communities, each with varied interests and concerns. In an effort to

reach the communities, we will be holding bi-monthly informal “get together’s “in locally and

privately owned coffee shops in each of our communities.

The first ever West Shore RCMP “Coffee with a Cop” was at Poncho’s Coffee House in Langford.

West Shore RCMP senior management along with several General Duty members spoke with over

30 different members of the community. The topics discussed varied in range from uniform

changes, to observed police action, to which police car they prefer.

Over the coming months West Shore RCMP will continue with the “Coffee with a Cop” initiative,

and host an gathering in each of the West Shore communities providing the community members

an opportunity to engage with the local Detachment members.

West Shore RCMP Senior Management at Coffee with a Cop held at Poncho’s Coffee House on February 28th.

QUARTERLY MAYOR’S REPORT CITY OF LANGFORD

July-September 2018

2018

WEST SHORE RCMP | 698 Atkins Ave. Victoria BC V9B 3A4


1

The third quarter reporting period for the fiscal year of 2018/2019 includes the months of July, August, and September 2018. The intent of this correspondence is to provide the Mayor, Council, and Protective Services Committee with a brief overview of policing operations as they pertain to the West Shore RCMP Detachment.

Annual Performance Plan (APP): Each Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) Detachment is mandated to prepare an annual performance plan that addresses identified “local policing priorities.” These “priorities” are set through consultation with elected officials and/or senior staff members. Listed below are the APP priorities for the 2018/2019 fiscal year.

1) Prevent and reduce the threat and impact of serious and organized crime. 2) Enhance road safety; speeding is the main focus. 3) Community engagement through programs of education and prevention. 4) Enhance relationships with Aboriginal/Indigenous Communities in our jurisdictional areas. 5) Reduce property crimes. 6) Reduce crimes against persons.

A brief update on the progress of these local initiatives follows and the quarterly crime statistics are compiled below. Note: The APP follows the RCMP fiscal year of April 1st to March 31st.

Crime Statistics: Within the following statistics we look for “trends.” This is significant as it relates to crime reduction initiatives designed to target prolific offenders and assists detachment personnel in identifying crime issues and focusing its resources. We continue to analyze and evaluate problem areas and individuals in an effort to target them for crime reduction initiatives via our general duty uniformed personnel and specialty teams. All members at the detachment including general duty, plain clothes and specialty teams contribute to this effort. Following the crime statistics are two (2) illustrative pie charts that reflect the entire detachment’s file count from the third quarter period from July 1st to September 30th, 2018. These show the percentage share of files generated amongst the respective areas served by the West Shore RCMP Detachment. A similar chart depicting the previous year’s statistics is also attached revealing a like pattern of work distribution.

2018/2019 Annual Performance Plan Updates

Prevent and reduce the threat and impact of serious and organized crime. During this quarter, members of the West Shore Detachment were presented with Outlaw Motorcycle Group (OMG) material focusing on local issues and potential OMG events in the area. The West Shore RCMP Crime Reduction Unit (CRU) received in-depth training on new investigative techniques and resources to further this team’s development and expertise. CRU and the RCMP Gang Enforcement Unit participated in enforcement during the Hells Angels Circle Run. RCMP members continue to gather intelligence from routine monitoring of the Spencer Road “Savages” clubhouse by targeting onsite OMG members and general monitoring of the address for activity. West Shore RCMP continue to share intelligence with the Capital Regional District OMG working group. CRU conducted two drug trafficking investigations with the assistance of outside specialized RCMP Units, resulting in an arrest and the seizure a sizeable amount of illegal drugs. Enhance Road Safety – Speeding. The detachment’s municipal traffic section remains operational fulfilling its mandate to conduct targeted enforcement and investigate fatal collisions. The traffic unit performed several targeted enforcement campaigns for speeding during this quarter and issued 46 speeding violations (statistics captured from July 1st, 2018 to September 16th, 2018). In the month of September, the traffic unit targeted school zones and was able to issue 7 speeding violation tickets and 39 written warnings for speeding in a school zone (Statistics only captured to September 16th, 2018). Enhanced traffic enforcement campaigns have also begun in 6 identified locations utilizing overtime member resources. The initial results of the enhanced campaign are as follows: 41 violation tickets, 42 written warnings and several mechanically or otherwise deficient vehicles were towed and their drivers issued with notice and orders to rectify the problems. 1 prohibited driver was also charged. The Media Relations Officer (MRO) has been working with ICBC to broadcast safety messages aimed toward motorists. The MRO focused on back to school safety and road safety campaigns to re-educate the public on speeding awareness through school and playground zones. Community engagement via educational and prevention programs. The West Shore RCMP bike unit is a new specialty squad and is now operational with 1 corporal and 1 officer on patrol. The plan is to have 2 additional officers assigned as member resources become available. This unit will operate throughout the entire year (not seasonally). The community police section, also referred to as crime prevention has returned to operational status with the new school year that began in September. Community policing officers have been in contact with School District 62 to update “safety plans”, increase visibility in the schools and assist with school zone speeding enforcement. Community police members also provide educational programs such as DARE (Drug Awareness/Abuse Resistance Education) which is taught to grade 5 students at all schools in the West Shore areas and the members attend many community-based events to promote crime prevention through “talks”, visibility and participation. Some of the higher-profile events include Canada Day at Fort Rodd Hill, Costco Safety Day, Fire & Safety expositions, Sirens for Life Blood Donor Clinic, Royal Roads law presentations and the


12

Terry Fox Run (David Cameron School). General Duty members within the detachment continue working foot patrols, when resources allow for it, in high visibility areas such as Thetis Lake, Ocean Blvd, and along the Galloping Goose Trail. Community police members also participate in foot patrols and run campaigns such as “Lock it or Lose it “; they are most often aided by our auxiliary constables in these campaigns. Enhance Relationships with Aboriginal/Indigenous Communities. This quarter, the first nation’s community policing (FNCP) officer participated in the “Pulling Together Canoe Journey” which went from Esquimalt Harbour to Musqueam Harbour in Vancouver. The FNCP member also participated in conversations with the communities regarding speed watch programs and how their community members could be more involved with crime prevention and education to their residents. The FNCP officer continued with enforcement in the first nations’ respective geographical areas by conducting investigations, sharing intelligence and monitoring parole/probation compliance. Reduce Property Crimes. Across the West Shore RCMP jurisdiction, break & enters to businesses have shown a decrease over the course of the year by 26%. Uniformed officers continue to ensure compliance by prolific offenders who are on probation conditions such as curfew and release conditions. CRU attended two Prolific Offender Management (POM) meetings targeting high frequency criminals. Intelligence was shared between crime analysts and the various general duty watches at the detachment. CRU investigated a string of break and enters to an apartment complex that experienced many thefts from vehicles. This investigation identified a suspect and efforts are being made to arrest and charge the offender. Reduce Crimes Against Persons. During this quarter, West Shore RCMP received 230 calls for service with respect to family violence incidents. These investigations are monitored by senior management to ensure all provincial and organizational policies are followed. These investigations are identified as a high risk for the organization and communities. The media relations officer is conducting a social media campaign highlighting violence in relationships. This campaign will focus on all violence, regardless of gender and will also encourage men to discuss being victims of domestic and sexual violence and where to seek resources. The campaign hopes to remove the stigma of men being reluctant to report violence by their partner.

Human Resources Status Report: The West Shore Detachment continues to be a desirable location for members. The Detachment offers a variety

of opportunities and working conditions and is well supported by the communities it serves. The new Inspector /Officer in Charge of the detachment commenced his duties August 13, 2018. Currently, the detachment has four new recruit/members with an additional four more recruits arriving in December from the RCMP Depot training facility. These members are in the early stages of their field-training segments of their education and are teamed up with a “field trainer”, an experienced member, for the first four to six months of this process. The goal is that by the six-month period after graduation from Depot, they will be operationally independent. The full time bike unit is now up and running. The squad has been staffed with a supervisor and one investigator. Two additional investigators will join the unit once some additional member resources arrive at the detachment in the coming months. As the West Shore area continues in its population and development growth, there have been a high number of critical incident calls. Members attending and investigating these incidents can experience a high degree of shock and the RCMP has made the mental health of its members a high priority. A number of agencies, programs and wellness information is available at all times and as needed, in confidentiality. As indicated earlier in this report, the overall calls for service (CFS) has increased. We continue to wait for our General Duty Staffing Assessment report from the “E” Division Business Intelligence Program for the analysis on where our General Duty resources should be at. From the ground floor analysis, it is believed that the report will suggest additional front line officers will be required to accommodate for the increase in the CFS.

Department: Fire Rescue

Subject: Wounded Warrior Canada Memorandum of Understanding

Background Wounded Warriors Canada is a national mental health charity that funds the development and delivery of innovative mental health programs to assist ill and injured members of the Canadian Armed Forces, Veterans, First Responders and their families. Their initiatives are helping to remove the stigma of mental health issues and provide support for military and emergency services personnel to receive the care their need after experiencing traumatic incidents. Commentary Langford Fire Rescue has supported Wounded Warriors Canada for several years, specifically during the annual run across the island. The fundraising efforts of Wounded Warrior Canada directly benefit firefighters, other emergency responders and the COPE Program (Couples Overcoming PTSD Everyday), which is based in Langford at Bear Mountain. This has led to a natural relationship between Langford Fire Rescue and Wounded Warrior Canada that both organizations desire to formalize into a memorandum of understanding (MOU). A MOU will allow members of Langford Fire Rescue and their families to access to resources provided by Wounded Warrior Canada to provide an additional layer of mental health service support to those already available. In return, Langford Fire Rescue would continue to support the provision of Wounded Warrior Canada programming and promote their initiatives through available publications and events. With this MOU, Langford Fire Rescue would be the first fire department in the Province of BC to have a formal agreement with Wounded Warrior Canada.


Options

1) For Protective Services to endorse Langford Fire Rescue to establish an memorandum of understanding with Wounded Warrior Canada;

OR

2) Take no action at this time.

Department: Fire Rescue

Subject: Community Resiliency Investment Program Grant

Background Staff recommend applying for a Community Resiliency Investment Program Grant through UBCM which will allow Langford to develop a Community Wildfire Protection Plan to plan to reduce the occurrence and severity of interface fires in Langford. Commentary The grant application to UCBM is for $25,000 which will be used to develop a comprehensive Community Wildfire Protection Plan. The Community Resiliency Investment Program through UBCM is intended to reduce the risk and impact of wildfire to communities in BC through community funding, supports and priority fuel management activities. For 2019, the program is structured to fund FireSmart activities in all eligible communities throughout BC. FireSmart principles have been proven to mitigate the negative impacts of wildfire to assets on public and private property. The goal of the grant is to increase community resiliency by undertaking community-based FireSmart planning and activities that reduce the community’s risk from wildfire. The grant will be used to create a Community Wildfire Protection Plan that includes assessment and identification of FireSmart Priorities in Langford which would then allow Langford to qualify for additional grants in the future. Options:

1) That Protective Services recommends that Council resolve to support the application for a 2019 Community Resiliency Investment Program grant. OR


2) That Protective Services does not recommend Council support the application at this time. Respectfully submitted,

Department: Bylaw Enforcement

Subject: Amendments to Traffic, Parks and MTI Authorization Bylaws to address Cannabis

and Camping

Background – On October 17, 2018, the Federal and Provincial Governments legalized recreational cannabis use. Many local government bodies have responded in making Bylaw adjustments with the goal of providing general guidance and clarification around community expectations with respect to cannabis use and vaping in public spaces. With preliminary direction from Council, Langford staff have now completed, and have attached to this report, amendments to the City’s Parks, Traffic and MTI Bylaws to include provisions to forestall any nuisance of odour and smoke as might relate to such uses in public places within Langford. At this time while amending the Traffic Bylaw to address vaping and cannabis use, an adjustment is also being made to that Bylaw to better protect people who may choose to camp on Langford road allowances, and additional provisions for enforcement capacity are being added to the MTI Authorization Bylaw. Commentary – The regional Clean Air Bylaw was recently amended by the CRD/VIHA to incorporate expanded controls over vaping and the use of cannabis, but its enforcement falls to a very limited number of VIHA staff. To date, it hasn’t been suitably confirmed that Langford’s Community Safety Officers have authority to enforce the CRD Bylaw. In the interests of providing the best possible levels of response and service to our residents, it is recommended that Langford’s Parks, Traffic and MTI Bylaws be amended to very closely mirror the regional Clean Air Bylaw provisions. Financial Implications - No notable financial implications are anticipated. Legal Implications – The advent of recreational cannabis use regulation in Canada is quite new and so these Bylaw amendments being proposed around cannabis use in public places have been reviewed by our legal counsel.


Options – That Committee review the attached amendments and recommend:

1. That Council give first three readings to Bylaw 1822, “Langford Municipal Park Regulation Bylaw Amendment No. 10, Bylaw 177, 1996” for adoption, and/or;

2. That Council give first three readings to Bylaw 1823, “Traffic Bylaw No. 33, 1995, Amendment No. 22, 2013” for adoption, and/or;

3. That Council give first three readings to Bylaw 1824, “District of Langford Ticket Information Authorization Bylaw Amendment No. 16, Bylaw 34, 2018.”
