AppendixI:ParentSurveyComments(CivicFactors)Question:MyCommunityisaSafePlacetoRaiseChildren

My community is safe but North Delta has declined overall Ladner is lacking activities and services for teenagers We should have a better solution to improve the safety. Too many break ins at North Delta We feel North Delta is a safer than average place to raise children as it is a family oriented community. The only thing bothering us is that criminals from other city may sneak in to interrupt our peace. so close to newton Love nth delta I feel very safe in my current neighbourhood Crime has certainly been up in Delta. Teens have no safe place to hang out, drugs have been a major issue as well as some of the gang type activity. Our son is 6 and I am already scared as to what the 'future community of Delta will look like' in regards to crime it feels very safe I grew up here and am now raising a family here.....in north delta Despite the odd incident, we feel very safe in our community Need better crosswalks, people driving too fast and almost hit children when crossing the road. But always cautious Recent events make things feel less safe. I am beginning to wonder, after multiple shootings in and around the area. I feel so lucky how safe I feel raising my kids in south delta. I wish there were sidewalks in every part of our neighbourhood. It's hard to walk places without having to use the road which is so unsafe with little kids. This may be my optimistic outlook on 'safeness' of community. Recently it hasn't seemed safer than other communities. recent shootings have us worried We live 5 minutes away from an elementary school but there are no side walks. It's always so scary to see children walking to or from school and cars speeding by. In the snow time it's even more difficult for the children. I can't go for walks or take my child for bike ride because of the lack of side walks starting to change my view with the gang shootings on 120th and the teen drug dealers at Mackie Turf forest area Safer than average To close to surrey Well there was that stabbing at Burnsview this week, and all that Indo Canadian gang shootings lately. I’m from London UK my perspective may not be balanced Drugs are becoming a huge issue but I still keep a close eye out. traffic is getting too fast

AppendixI:ParentSurveyComments(CivicFactors)Question:Mycommunityinvolveschildrenandyouthinmakingdecisionsthataffectthewholecommunity

I do not have enough information to answer this accurately. Really do not know I have no idea I don't know I can't say that I have seen this with the younger ages of my kids. Children young My 6 year old son has never been involved in decision making for the community I am just learning where this information all is Not too sure on this one n/a my child is still a baby I have not seen or heard about any youth forums. I don't have this knowledge. Not sure don't know don't know not too much experience with that yet not sure we need to rezone some of the neighbourhoods to permit more affordable housing. North Delta does not have enough affordable housing for families. Unsure of how much This survey is statement of that fact but it is the first such I have seen. never been involved with decision making I'm not sure how kids are involved as I've never experienced anything that involved my kids but I assume this to be true,..? Agree North Delta has tons of playgrounds for kids under 10, but we need something for preteens 10-13. Like a airpark, climbing centre, activity centred warehouse for team and birthday events. Other than a rec. centre. This process is not obvious to me I've never heard of any kids or youth helping make decisions. Sounds like it would be a good idea Unsure not sure unknown not too sure don't know

Question:Howconvenientisittodrivearoundyourcommunitywithyourchildren?

I like that our area is not direct way too much road work in North Delta the long boarders in the Sunstone area ride down the Wiltshire Blvd & Modesto Place hills pretty fast and are a hazard to drivers and pedestrians. There needs to be a ban or something in place for this. There were some close calls last summer, This summer someone's child will be seriously hurt, maybe even killed if we can't control it except in trying to go north south during rush hour to cross either nordel or 72 though we try not to as our son walks to school, would love to see more students walking to school, especially this last year with such fair weather I don't drive North Delta is oddly laid out - some places are confusing to access. rush hour can be a pain Drive thru Starbucks. ;) No parking for child activities - not very much and not close to venues More round-abouts Need more speed controls in playground and school zones Cars are always convenient I guess Very congested around school zones during peak hrs. I don't drive 116 is worse being more narrow and blocking driveways parking is limited in Ladner I do not drive I don't drive Easy and free parking is always accessible. I don't drive a car

13

Question:Howconvenientisittowalkaroundyourcommunitywithyourchildren?(page1of2)

The lack of sidewalks on busy streets is appalling. Streets like 115 between 88 and 90 where kids walk to school and the park, yet no sidewalk, so kids are dodging around parked cars and cars that are driving. sidewalks seem to be narrow esp when one has a stroller & another on a bike. Sunstone has been advertised as a "master planned community" but essential components are still not completed 6 or 7 years later (no commercial space) live at the bottom of a steep hill and it’s difficult to push a double stroller to the top Walk for enjoyment YES; walk to get places NO. And transit is not accessible. some sidewalk corners are not stroller friendly there are no side walks in my neighbourhood -bell park area of ladner and I often feel unsafe walking because of this. much more convenient with new sidewalks Very poor sidewalk access. Many roads have no sidewalks at all. We go for walks all over the neighborhood all the time. Not enough sidewalks 30 mins walk from home to nearest recreation centre.if there's shuttle bus between our complex to recreation centre that would be so good! Lots of areas have no sidewalks more sidewalks needed More sidewalks would be helpful. Too many dogs unleashed in parks and no control I walk 1 to 3 times per day with my daughter. We walk for hours Police should be giving more tickets to speeding, and watching around school. So many people don't stop and let people cross the street. No sidewalks and lots of speeding. There are some parts of Sunshine Hills that do not have good sidewalks. There aren't sidewalks everywhere in our neighborhood otherwise we could walk to sungod for example. hard for strollers on some sidewalks that aren't for mobility-challenged folks We live near Port Guichon but walk everywhere Not a lot of connectedness in walking and bike routes traffic and speeding drivers are a concern Need more sidewalks and separate bike lanes.


14

Question:Howconvenientisittowalkaroundyourcommunitywithyourchildren?(page2of2)

we live in a school zone area but there are no side walks. It is always scary to see cars passing by fast and children having to go into drive ways to protect themselves. Especially in snow time, its so unsafe. I can't take my child for a walk or bike ride because there are no sidewalks. There is not much to walk to. Most places to go outside or outdoors requires a drive. Biking is ok but not safe with a 7 y/o. Lack of sidewalks Lots of areas have no sidewalks Speeders on 1st ave!!! the old sidewalks and driveways are difficult to push strollers East ladner mon as much to get to stuff Long distance to get to places Love North Delta Everyone smoking, drivers very unreliable, we almost were hit many times Beach Grove is a great neighbourhood for families Not a lot of sidewalks in neighbourhood (north delta west) I live in the farm in East Ladner so not accessible public transport where I live. I have to walk all the way to Arthur Drive or Ladner Trunk Road to get a bus ride or call a cab when it is raining hard I don't drive, and I live in Sunshine HIlls area, but the community centre are all located in 84th and 116th. It is not convenient for me to take children to the community centre. live in East Ladner, so to walk to Ladner village where all the activities takes 40-45 mins we live in East Ladner so there is not much to walk to


Question:Howconvenientisittoridebicyclesaroundyourcommunitywithyourchildren?(page1of3)

live on busy street drivers are not slowing down I do not bike Narrow road at 64th Street and 34B Street. The only access road for me to go to town. In Ladner only. Tsawwassen, no bicycle routes available. off leash dogs make it tough at times

15


Would be nice to have bike paths. There is always a worry of getting hit by a car. Busy streets such as Ladner Trunk Road are not convenient. Some street parking makes it risky for little ones on bikes. Not much in the way of bike paths. Too much traffic too much traffic Too much traffic Too much traffic so many cars parked on streets now, I don't feel comfortable letting my kids ride their bike not on the limited sidewalks. in Sunshine Hills - sure Same safety concern as above It is safe Roads by us are busy and don't feel comfortable, but good trail systems for that We ride on the sidewalks as 112th drivers area always driving fast. We live at 90th and 112th and they just put a crosswalk there, but what they need is those speedbumps. We are between 2 schools with lots of young kids everywhere and people are always speeding down or turning really fast down 90th towards River road. There is a lot of traffic. People do not follow speed limits and there are many streets without sidewalks which forces children to ride on the road. we need more sidewalks or cyclist lanes, only the main roads have this 112 and 116th streets missing some sidewalks in Beach Grove We need more bike lanes, bike crossing buttons, and places to lock bikes. Need more bike paths very as we have bike routes through our neighbourhood Please add bike lanes/routes including farm roads. Bike routes are needed. I really notice this after moving from Vancouver to Ladner. I would like to ride my bike with my baby but feel unsafe. Need bike lanes Many cars park on main roads squishing bikes into traffic or making people ride on sidewalks. Bad drivers. Many main roads without bike lanes. Could always be better. Concern over 56th Kids almost got hit by cars twice in one ride - people looking at phones coming onto 56th Make it more obvious/bike lane


16


More biking paths to keep kids off of main roads would be better. Same as walking, kids are too small to go on the road. In East Ladner, you need to go out of the way to the overpass that takes bikes. It can be quite a task to take two children and their bikes over that pass and then proceed onto the busy road beyond. there are no bike lanes pathways are hard to get through barriers with a bike carrier lots of trails, bike lanes need more bike lanes - separate from cars and people walking too much traffic makes it difficult No sidewalk in our street and a dangerous curve that people don't take care around. 10a ave Some bike lanes but not on main roads ; need to communicate bike routes more no side walks, and not enough room on the street See above. No separated bike routes, a horrible biking experience on the 17 designated bike route. Not a great bike destination. We need dedicated bike lanes. Not enough bike lanes - busy roads No many safe places to ride for less experienced riders No sidewalk on our street cars going too fast Would like to see a bike lane from tsawwassen to Ladner More bike paths and sidewalks would help Zero bike lanes, and side walks are non-existent in our community. Westham island needs a bike lane! More bike routes on roads would help so we wouldn't have to ride on sidewalk Very busy vehicle traffic. Not enough safe bike lanes There are no bike lanes at all. Don't feel safe having the kids bike with me as we have to go on main streets. Haven't done yet No comment. Don't bike. not safe Again, Beach Grove is great. I would love safer paths for bikes from Tsawwassen to Ladner. The highways and busy back roads are not safe for bikes. Increased traffic around residential areas near hwy routes or the busy 64th/120th intersection have roads that are flush with sidewalks (no safety space in between). Would benefit from traffic calming improvements.

hard to find job nearby home I wish we had room for a play area in our complex It is difficult to baby proof Was not allowed pet, had to give her up. Hurt kids badly. Need another bathroom and bedroom in the future We live in an apartment Our house was too small for us 6 years ago but it was all we could afford. Both professional parents but so expensive to live here. we are currently developing a new home We are currently renting our home which is scheduled to be demolished for townhouses. Such a sad situation. We love our home and it's close to everything we need but we will be forced to move and there is not a lot of renting options in North Delta that will meet the needs of both our children we need more affordable housing for families 2 adults, 2 children of different gender in a 2 bedroom apartment. No outside area for kids to play Too small We are looking into to building a better size to fit our family Too small but bigger is too expensive We would like to purchase a home but we have been forced out of the market due to overseas investors Very expensive housing, so we had to sacrifice space Because am only to take care for my kids so it's little hard for me because they like go out play with other kids I need a larger suite but have no way of affording one We can't afford a home Our house is small for a family of 5 but we are managing Landlord not happy to meet the needs to maintain the house. We rent a house - it does not belong to us.

18


Question:Howdifficultwasittogetyourcurrenthome?(page1of2)

We rent. Hard to find something in our price range that could accommodate our children and allow them to have a yard and not be cooped up in a dark basement suite Houses are very expensive so are groceries houses are very expensive so does groceries Prices r very high Houses are expensive poor selection of rental properties in North Delta Somewhere between Relatively Easy and Hard. Had to save lots of money, ladner is not a cheap place to buy a house. But rent is $$$$ here Owning a home is a financial challenge - Finding one within an affordable price range is difficult. We live house poor, so that we can own a house, enjoy our space and hopefully raise our son in a community that will encourage his success. not very convenient for ppl don't drive housing is much too expensive for what you get That was 12 years ago....I've noticed that u can't be picky now if u want a specific area as houses are selling fast We rent our suite I don't understand what this question is looking for we have been here for 13 years and prices were over half of what they are today Ladner detached homes are expensive. Need more rental homes that allow pets. So hard to find places. too expensive Required help from family. We would not be able to afford to buy now, or move. Part of job package so not sure 10 minutes from schools Very difficult to find an affordable home with a garden for the kids to play in We borrowed money from parents and bought house with brother and sister Bought a home 17 years ago and had equity from a home in another province Purchased in 2002. Now it is extremely hard for friends to purchase in same community Very expensive and difficult to find a home for sale. Although we rent and are looking at leaving Delta in order to purchase a house. We had help from family More townhouse development

19


Question:Howdifficultwasittogetyourcurrenthome?(page2of2)

prices have increased rapidly over the past few months, due to Chinese buying up properties this is making it impossible for others to buy suitable homes. It was a case of right place at the right time. We found it by luck It's easy when my cousins pick them to take her home and go out Probably harder now, we bought our house in 2009 Not understand don't own yet bought 12 years ago We live in a one bedroom low income apartment We bought 13 years ago. The market was very affordable then. currently staying with family, waiting to buy Bought it a long time ago
