R E A L E S T A T E W E E K L Y
Vancouver’s war on waste is ramping
up. On January 1, 2015, the City said
“no” to food scraps in the garbage by
banning all organic material in the
regular trash. Now, items such as veg-
gie peelings, bones, fat and even pizza
boxes must be placed in special bins
for commercial composting.
From hard-core environmentalists
to eco-savvy millennials, the general
consensus is that this is a long overdue
move in the right direction toward
green. But for many condo dwellers,
the logistics can appear daunting –
even with a six-month grace period
before violators will be slapped with
a fi ne.
The Big PictureThe City of Vancouver has already
been implementing its food scraps sys-
tem in about 1,800 condo buildings.
Those buildings should already have
new food scrap bins and be partici-
pating fully in separating food from
garbage. However, like everywhere
else, there is a six-month grace period
before spot checks and fi nes come into
play on July 1.
Strata councils in the remaining
3,900 or so condo buildings not ser-
viced by the City’s program are obliged
to renegotiate their contracts with their
current recycling providers to include
a food scraps program. This must be
done by July 1 when the grace period
ends.
Stratas will be slapped with a fi ne if
during a spot check their landfi ll gar-
bage is deemed to comprise more than
25 per cent food scraps.
The Practical IssuesThe next issue is where to put the
bins? Most residential towers were
designed with dedicated garbage/recy-
cling rooms, but smaller condos are
often tight on storage space. Some
buildings could fence off one or more
existing parking spots for additional
bins. But in many neighbourhoods,
low-rise apartment blocks are already
forced to store recycling bins in back
alley alcoves.
For these condo dwellers, Nichole
Stefenelli, founder of Urban Impact
Recycling, says smaller containers with
more frequent pick-ups may be the only
route to go. Her company will some-
times even negotiate a fl oor-by-fl oor
service to eliminate the need for daily
trips to the recycle room.
“It’s defi nitely important to make it
easy for people,” says Jonathan Meads,
Concert’s development and sustainabil-
ity manager. He explains how Concert’s
“recycling lounges” are constantly
washed and have walls painted to cor-
respond with the colour of each type of
recycling bins – blue for paper, red for
soft plastics and brown for organics.
The company has also committed to
providing every purchaser in upcoming
condominium projects with a sleek-
looking, compact organic waste bucket
for their kitchen.
Defeating the Yuck FactorArguably, though, one of the great-
est challenges in gaining consumer
acceptance will be taming the “yuck
factor” – the perception of bad odors
and increased interest from fruit fl ies
and vermin.
“Clean, well-sealed containers that
can be washed easily and frequently
are key — both in the kitchen and in the
outdoor bins,” Stefenelli stresses, add-
ing that Urban Impact washes every bin
on location, every time it’s emptied.
In her own home, she uses an “attrac-
tive,” well-sealed container to store
her organics before taking them to the
recycle bin once a day.
One creative solution is to keep an
old fi ve-litre ice cream pail in your
freezer and fi ll it with scraps – no
unsightly mess and no smell.
However, buildings serviced by the
City should be warned that collectors
will not be cleaning out the communal
bins on emptying them, which could
prove an unpleasant and challenging
weekly chore for strata members.

of Vancouver’s organic recycling pro-
gram is found at www.vancouver.ca/

Burquitlam is emerging as a sought-
after up-and-coming neighbourhood. Its
proximity to Highway 1, the Evergreen
Line, which is set to open in 2016, and
the to shopping, recreation and schools
is attracting families, downsizers and
everyone in between.
This is where the award-winning
Intracorp Projects Ltd. is unveiling its
exciting new townhome development -
The Black + Whites on Foster.
“We are releasing our fi rst phase
on January 24th which consists of 32
homes,” says Barrett Sprowson, Director
of sales Intracorp Realty. “Thirteen of the
homes will be move-in ready by the end
of February and the remaining homes by
the end of this summer.”
Located on a quiet, tree-lined street
away from busy traffi c, and near an abun-
dance of parks, trails, golf courses, and
recreational facilities, The Black + Whites
on Foster is a collection of 107 three
and four-bedroom townhomes off ering
a unique blend of urban appeal and Old
World charm.
“Starting from the low $500,000 and
generously sized, these homes are single
family home inspired at a price anyone
can aff ord,” adds Sprowson.
Designed by Ramsay Worden
Architects, the three-storey, open concept
contemporary homes range from 1,231
to 1,684 square feet. Each residence
features nine-foot ceilings, high quality
laminate fl ooring and sprawling windows
to bring the outdoors in. The gourmet
kitchens with stainless steel appliances,
kitchen islands, granite countertops and
a combination painted lacquer and real
wood shaker style cabinetry will motivate
you to cook and entertain.
The charming exteriors were inspired
by the timeless elegance of the 1930’s
New York black and white architecture
- with gorgeous detailed brick or hardi-
board cladding, custom-detailed wrought
iron front gate and private entry with
manicured landscaped front yard. In
addition, they are showcased by cus-
tom personalized planter boxes, spacious
decks and large over height deep-set mul-
lioned windows.
“The doors are coloured either green,
red or black to give individuality to each
home,” he adds. “The community fea-
tures 69,000 square feet of grass, shrubs
and greenway which is the size of an NFL
football fi eld.”
Black + Whites also off er easy access
to an emerging urban centre that will
include shopping, restaurants, services,
and other amenities. In the works is a
50,000 sq. ft. grocery store located at
Burquitlam Mall and a 60,000 sq. ft.
YMCA Community Centre slated to open
in 2017.
None other than Intracorp - the award-
winning development company with
more than 30 years of experience - could
undertake a project that seamlessly
blends into the beauty and charm of this
exciting and emerging neighbourhood;
all the while giving the interiors every-
thing you would expect.
A great quality of life combined with
housing prices about one-third the price
of comparable properties on Vancouver’s
west side, are other reasons Burquitlam
is becoming so sought-after.
The Black + Whites on Foster Grand
Opening happens Saturday, Jan. 24th
from noon to 5 p.m. at the new Sales
Centre, which includes a display home,
located at 548 Foster Ave., Coquitlam.
