Fight HST petition kicks off this week Vander Zalm tours province to promote anti-HST initiative TRICIA LESLIE

Laneway living: a new option If eligible, Vancouverites have new housing opportunities MAGGIE CALLOWAY Thinking about installing a laneway house on your property but don’t know where to start? Your hobby is taking over the house

and you desperately need a studio? Mom and Dad need to be a bit closer to your family and a small cottage at the foot of the garden fits the bill? Do you feel renting out a laneway house is a great long-term investment?

The City of Vancouver has approved laneway housing if the property is zoned RS1 or RS5, is at least 33 feet wide and has access to an open lane or flanking side street.

There are many more rules and regulations regarding size, style and function but if your property is not zoned or doesn’t meet these basic requirements you are not eligible.

If you are not sure if you qualify go to http:// www.vancouver.ca, then search VanMap. This will allow you to see your property details and you can quickly establish eligibilCONTINUED ON P.2

‘Buy before the HST’ is a prompt oftseen in the local real estate market these days.

But former B.C. premier Bill Vander Zalm is confident that his Fight HST citizen initiative petition will get enough signatures from British Columbians to force the provincial government to repeal the much-maligned Harmonized Sales Tax. “The “The response has response has been nothing short of been nothing phenomenal,” Vander Zalm says, noting short of after a successphenomenal that ful tour of northern ... if (the B.C., he is even more optimistic that the petition) petition will be a succeeds, success. and I believe More than 1,000 it will, it will canvassers have been up throughout be a first for signed the province, with Canada.” hundreds more showing up during Vander Zalm’s B.C. tour to sign on as captains, organizers and other volunteers for the anti-HST petition campaign.

British Columbians are rising up to take back their democracy, Vander Zalm says, adding that in his 25 years in B.C. politics – as a councillor, mayor, MLA, cabinet minister and premier – he has never seen a response that comes remotely close.

Vander Zalm optimistic anti-HST initiative will stop the tax CONTINUED FROM P.1

He officially launched the petition campaign on Tuesday, and has until July 5 to collect signatures from 10 per cent of registered voters in all of B.C.’s 85 ridings.

If he collects enough names, the question of HST could go to a referendum.

“We need 10 per cent of every constituency, but we’re targeting 15 per cent,” Vander Zalm says.

Although referendums are non-binding in B.C., Vander Zalm doubts the government would “We need “ever turn 10 per cent down the of every first successconstituency, ful initiative petition.” but we’re “If (the targeting 15 petition) succeeds, per cent.” and I believe it will, it will be a first for Canada,” Vander Zalm says.

The HST, which will combine the provincial seven per cent and the federal five per cent existing taxes on nearly every good sold or service provided, may not be popular, but it will be beneficial for B.C.’s economy, provincial government representatives say.

But Vander Zalm points to the fact that 85 per cent of the province’s residents are against the HST, which he calls an unjust, illegal, and unethical tax.

ity. (This site also allows homeowners to check where service lines enter the property.)

Jake Fry, one of the original founders of Smallworks Studios and Laneway Housing Inc., now operates the Metro Vancouver company.

His desire in starting Smallworks was to “build sustainable, attractive, modest size, family homes built to an exceptional standard.”

Fry used to live in a small attic that overlooked an ivy-covered coach house.

“I liked living in that flat for no other reason than it was always so inviting to look at the little Edwardian home and its courtyard,” he says.

Working as a finishing carpenter for a builder of large expensive homes, the thought of that old Edwardian coach house and the lifestyle it represented grew larger in Fry’s mind.

In 2005, Fry started Smallworks and worked with the City of Vancouver and other surrounding municipalities to develop zoning bylaws that would allow the construction of laneway houses.

The timing was right as municipalities were starting to look at ways of housing an increasing population without disrupting established neighbourhoods. An equal incentive was the growing pressure to find new ecologically based solutions.

Two and half years ago, as part of the Vancouver City election campaign, the Eco Density Initiative was launched and laneway housing was part of the plan.

But what about actually living in a laneway home? Are laneway housing tenants going to feel like they are living in a tiny shoebox?

The answer is a resounding ‘no’; the inte-

riors of these homes are well-designed, with high ceilings and every square inch of space maximized. Equally important is what designers call negative space, which is space left open and unused, and gives a feeling of openness and freshness. The relationship of the home to the outdoor space is also maximized with large windows and patio doors flooding the home with light.

Fry and his team worked with architects to design four houses that would fit within the Vancouver bylaws.

“We have standard models that can be personalized and made unique – some are smaller and can be added to, and still be within what the bylaw allows regarding square footage,” he says.

The current bylaw allows a total of 750 square feet, which must include the 250-sq.-ft. garage.

As the property gets wider, the laneway home can get larger, but never greater than 750 sq. ft. of interior living space (plus the garage).

Standard models, from design to completion, cost around $225,000 to $235,000 to build, Fry notes. One of the services Smallworks provides

is working with the homeowner through the whole process, from planning to permit to completion.

“We take you to bringing in the groceries,” Fry says.

Colin Lawrence, a mortgage development manager with VanCity Credit Union, says the financial institution was working with Smallworks well before Vancouver passed the bylaw to allow laneway housing construction.

“VanCity has been a big supporter of the laneway housing concept for a few years. It fits in with our whole philosophy and is very close to our hearts because we are big proponents of affordable housing,” Lawrence says.

Laneway housing can be useful in several ways, from seniors’ housing to the potential for lower-cost housing, to being an ecological solution for higher-density property use, he adds.

“We usually put together a separate mortgage, especially if their plan is to rent the home, because the homeowner can deduct the interest expense from income. The charge is against the whole property but this way it is easier to track.”

Live in a new Brentwood home

Perspectives offers more than views

Perspectives sales manager Louise Barbour enjoys a coffee in the Burnaby show suite.

The Brentwood district is home to the latest addition to the Ledingham McAllister family, Perspectives.

Consisting of a 33-storey tower of one- to three-bedroom homes and three-bedroom townhomes, this project is close to modern amenities, transportation and Burnaby’s many opportunities for outdoor recreation, including the lush three-acre green space directly adjacent to the property.

The north Burnaby location is perfect for families with Brentwood Park Elementary and Alpha Secondary close by, and both Simon Fraser University and BCIT in the neighbourhood.

There is no shortage of fabulous restaurants and shopping available.

Brentwood Town Centre is just a short walk away with its great mix of shops and services. Restaurants like Pear Tree and Bombay Bhel both add to the unique culture and character of the neighbourhood, and serious home chefs will be familiar with Cioffi’s Market and Deli, an Italian institution.

‘Everything is nice and close’

Live in a new Maple Ridge townhome at Duet An area known for its stunning natural beauty and outdoor recreation opportunities, Maple Ridge is located on the shores of the historic Fraser River, nestled against the coastal mountains.

A community of urban sophistication that retains a sense of rural charm, it is a culturally vibrant and active city rich with business, shopping, leisure and entertainment choices.

Living in Maple Ridge means being close to nature while still embracing all the advantages of urban living. With Millenium Century Investments’ project, Duet, homebuyers can purchase a brand-new townhome in this thriving, expanding city.

Located close to the West Coast Express line and the new Golden Ears Bridge, living at Duet allows residents to choose more than one option if they must commute to work outside the city’s borders.

Several amenities are also located nearby, from parks and sports complexes to schools, shopping malls, arts facilities, libraries and community centres.

“The location is excellent. Everything is nice and close,” says TRG Realty’s sales associate Victoria Sarrel, CONTINUED ON P.6

who is also a realtor.

“It’s a really good family neighbourhood.”

Duet is a 44-unit development of new townhomes, situated close to Lougheed Highway and Maple Ridge’s town centre.

The stylish townhouses offer quality in several well-thought-out floorplans that give each home a spacious feel; all have at least three bedrooms.

Some come with an extra room that could be used as an exercise area, a guest room, a sewing room, a nursery or an office, depending on the family’s need.

Gourmet kitchens come with granite countertops and full, stainless-steel appliance packages from Whirlpool.

Crown moulding and baseboards are featured throughout; laminate flooring comes on the main level, with stairways and upper levels carpeted.

All laundry rooms have front-loading washer and dryers and – a must-have for many homeowners – a large laundry sink, or tub, as well.

Napolean fireplaces give warmth and comfort in the winter, while patios can be enjoyed in the summer.

Every plan comes with a single-car garage and another space to park a vehicle in the driveway, while some plans offer two-car garages, plus the driveway.

“The finishings are amazing ... there’s a lot of attention to detail,” Sarrel says.

“They’re really beautiful homes.”

From the cabinetry and blinds to the exterior stone work and landscaping, people have been noticing the difference at Duet – especially the price point, says Sarrel.

Three-bedroom homes start in the $349,900 range (1,466 square feet); homes around 1,685 sq. ft. start from $355,000.

About half of the new homes are completed and move-in ready; the rest will be finished by mid-July to late July, Sarrel says.

While some of Duet’s townhomes are sold, a wide variety of floorplans remain available.

Visit www.duetliving.ca for more information.

Duet towhomes come in a wide variety of floorplans. Some plans allow the homebuyers to plan for a nursery or sewing room or office in a fourth bedroom. All Duet homes come with granite countertops in the kitchens, as well as a full stainless-steel appliance package.

Lower floors feature laminate flooring, while stairs and upper levels are carpeted.

Crown mouldings and baseboards add detail throughout the home, and Napolean fireplaces can give cozy warmth on winter nights. ‘They’re really beautiful homes,’ says TRG Realty’s Victoria Sarrel. Brett Beadle photos
