1. Create the key change in bar 37
2. Select the flat symbol shown in bar 36, increase its Leading space to 2
3. Select the quaver rest on beat 4.5 of bar 36
4. Open the Master palette, Symbols section
5. Search for "barline", then click on the desired double-barline
6. Close the Master palette
7. Select the double-barline symbol, use the Offsets in the Properties panel to position it just before the flat

[EDIT]
If you look in the Status bar, the flat at the change of key signature actually "belongs" to bar 37 although the flat is to the left of the start-repeat barline
