Um

we're glad to have you and we will deal
[1:25]
with this asiently as we can. Um
Raymond, are you uh on track?
[1:36]
You Mr. Mayor
>> I will turn the uh meeting over to you
[1:44]
to go through the amendment process.
>> Um one thing can we get a motion to
[1:50]

>> Oh sure sure we can.
[1:55]
» Okay.
>> Brian and uh John.
[2:02]
» Wonderful.
[2:06]
Okay.
[2:09]
All right. I will I guess this is um we
have new format now. So, we actually get
[2:14]
to post our stuff on the on the website
um what seven days prior now, I guess.
[2:21]
So, this has been out there for for
quite a while.
[2:25]
Anyways, um okay. So, we have a zoning
amendment application has been received
[2:30]
from Jason and Melissa Car to permit two
existing sheds that are not currently
[2:36]
accessory to a dwelling to remain as
located on a temporary basis for up to
[2:41]
three years during the construction of
their dwelling.
[2:46]
Um, our zoning bylaw uh does not permit
a accessory structure to be on the
[2:52]
property prior to the uh direction of a
dwelling. Um
[2:58]
6.3B
um refers to the setback
[3:05]
uh from the front lot line and 6.3J
states that travel trailers may only be
[3:12]
used in accordance with this section in
zones that permit residential uses must
[3:16]
be clearly secondary to a residential
use and may be permitted by the travel
[3:21]
or the trailer licensing bylaw. Um, two
two existing sheds have been located
[3:27]
within the subject property having a
front yard setback of plus or minus
[3:31]
18.29 m and are currently not accessory
to a primary dwelling. Therefore, an
[3:37]
amendment is required to permit the two
existing sheds to remain as located on a
[3:42]
sight specific basis on a temporary use
for up to three years during the
[3:47]
construction of their drawing. is
existing travel trailer has been located
[3:52]
within the subject property without a uh
an approved travel trailer permit and
[3:59]
the municipality has advised that permit
will be required. Um
[4:05]
and you go further
into the subject lands
[4:12]
which uh was surveyed as parts 10 to six
and is irregularly shaped.
[4:19]
Um
it's uh the lands of but uh Twin Harbors
[4:24]
Road which is seasonally maintained
um beyond which are agricultural and
[4:30]
shoreline residential zones
characterized by bush single detached
[4:35]
buildings.
The property is abudded west by rural
[4:40]
residential residences sorry and bush to
the south is Pville road west
[4:47]
on which are vacant agricultural zones.
Uh moving forward
[4:57]
now, right? Uh we'll go back. I can just
carry on right to the recommendations
[5:02]
and then we'll
>> you're break you're breaking up on this.
[5:08]
» Apologies.
>> Yeah. Um okay, we'll move to the
[5:13]
recommendation planning board on five.
Um the municipality may consider the
[5:19]
travel trailer to remain within the
property by issuing a trailer permit
[5:23]
under the trailer licensing bylaw
providing there are no extenduating or
[5:29]
additional information to be considered.
This proposal does not appear to
[5:32]
precipitate or cause any undesirable
effects on the planning area.
[5:40]
Based on the affformentioned analysis,
it is recommended the subject
[5:44]
application
be approved by council. If in their
[5:48]
judgment proposal was favorable to the
advancement and well-being of the
[5:52]
municipality
meant to permit on a sight specific
[5:56]
basis two sheds not accessory to a
dwelling to remain as located as a
[6:02]
temporary use for up to three years
during construction of
[6:09]
I'll turn it over to you.
>> Thanks Raymond.
[6:15]
Uh that was a fairly fast uh process.
Uh I have one question and maybe you
[6:22]
know it maybe you don't Raymond but I
imagine you do. It's saying that the
[6:27]
average pumping rate for the well
surrounding wells is 28.18
[6:35]
uh lers per minute. What is a an
acceptable bump rate?
[6:42]
Uh actually don't know that off the top
of my head. Um I can uh
[6:49]
» Good question. I don't actually I don't
know the answer to that Richard right
[6:52]
now. Mr. Mayor.
>> Okay. Well, that'll that's just a
[6:57]
question for my interest in the first
place. So, we won't do anything radical
[7:03]
about it. Um
any council member have any questions?
[7:10]
Ryan,
>> I think quite pick up some of what
[7:13]
Raymond was saying. So, right now they
have all their permits in order for
[7:19]
» No, they don't have
>> they have the trailer permit.
[7:21]
» They don't have the trailer permit and
the two h the two sheds are not in
[7:29]
compliance with with our current bylaw,
but that's the reason for the request
[7:36]
for an amendment.
I understood that they had some permits
[7:40]
or or Raymond was talking about permits.
So
[7:44]
» I do believe
>> now I do believe they are in the process
[7:49]
of speaking with Sue regarding the uh
trailer permit.
[7:54]
» Okay. So it's in progress.
[7:58]
» Yes, I believe so.
>> For the trailer permit. That's all. And
[8:02]
then you're here and they're here for
the two um
[8:08]
» leave the two buildings that they're
existing until they do their their uh
[8:14]
» permits.
So if they have a trailer per uh or they
[8:20]
have a construction permit, then that
takes one of these out or the the
[8:25]
trailer out of the tenant.
[clears throat] So either either
[8:32]
» anyone else.
>> Don't you think that 3 years is a long
[8:37]
time to to leave for construction
period?
[8:47]
» I can answer Mr. Mayor.
Um, according to the according to the
[8:52]
planning act, there is provisions in
there for a temporary use bylaw for up
[8:57]
to three years.
[9:01]
» So, it gives the components a chance to
um use like uh use their property and
[9:07]
get a feel of where they would like to
build their home and to, you know,
[9:11]
potentially save up to build their home,
I guess.
[9:17]
And considering that they've owned the
property since June of 2020 is not
[9:25]
exactly expecting too much, I don't
think
[9:32]
anyone else
[9:37]
anything more, Raymond, that you need to
know.
[9:41]
No, actually this one I figured was
pretty uh pretty much straightforward.
[9:46]
We have we have done one of these in the
past where we allowed a three-year
[9:52]
period and
it worked out it worked out pretty well.
[9:59]
» Well, if there's nothing more then I
guess we uh can conclude the
[10:07]
» have the opportunity for public comment.
>> Okay. Come on.
[10:12]
» Does anybody want to speak
>> or forever hold your peace?
[10:20]
» John,
>> one comment. Uh the uh 20 28 L is like
[10:24]
six gallons a minute. So I think we have
a well that's down within the we just
[10:29]
put in is only like a gallon and a half.
So they have plenty of water for a
[10:35]
single house. So the 28's a good a good
month, but thanks.
[10:39]
» Not sure the quality of the water, but
>> well, we can't do anything about that.
[10:45]
» I imagine that's been checked.
[10:51]
All right. So, uh, council comments
completed, public comments,
[10:59]
none.
And the chair's closing remarks is again
[11:04]
thanks Raymond for your diligence and uh
planning board are in agreeance that it
[11:11]
is a a doable and a recommended process.
So we will leave it at that.
[11:18]
» Will we have to send our recommendation
to the planning board?
[11:21]
» No, the uh well there's a bylaw that's
passed in council. It's on the agenda.
[11:25]
» Okay. We we'll do the bylaw and that'll
be the backward
[11:31]
info.
So, uh I guess all I need is an
[11:37]
adjournment to this. Thanks.
[11:43]
» Yep.
[11:47]
» We're going to break for five minutes
while I reset the reporting for the
[11:50]
council meeting. Okay.
>> We will be dealing with the bylaw later
[11:54]
on. So you folks want to hang by then
we'll be glad to have you as part of our
[12:00]
our group.
[12:13]
» Oh my god. You got one of those two
warehouse things.
[12:23]
with the beer. All right.
